Linda's Pancakes & Pizza's

A MUST visit every year we return to Aruba. A place many of the locals frequent and for those who are "in the know" that visit the island. Don't expect much of an ambiance, but that's not what its all about, although the serving plates are personalized with Linda's name with Dutch style motifs. The pizza is good, plenty of choices of toppings, but the authentic Dutch pancakes are the best on the island. Served as you like them with an assortment of toppings, I would recommend the cinnamon apple. Served with condiments on the side, powdered sugar, cinnamon and very thick maple syrup they just can't be beat. Have them with an ice cold Balashi beer and you will be more than satisfied. A great break from the restaurants on the strip. Show up in your flip flops, tee shirt and shorts and expect to pay less than $35 per couple. You will be glad that you did.

I was so stoked on the pancakes! Especially the Apple/Bacon (Dank). I thought it couldn't get any better, then the Pizza arrived! Cheese on top! It really tied the pie together... Linda's is great, a real Dutch Family vibe. I love Aruba and I love Linda's!

Great local restaurant. The pancakes are delicious, especially the bacon/apple. The rum pineapple coconut pancake was a pina colada in every bite. Loved the shot glass filled with rum served with the pancake. Definitely will go back.

We have breakfast at Linda's almost every day when we are in Aruba. The dutch pancakes, especially the Apple and Bacon and chocolate chip (we prefer them on the side so you can melt them on top) are to die for, its a happy way to start your day on the "Happy Island"!! Dining outside is very relaxing.

We visit Linda's at least once every trip. Love love love their pancakes! They now offer gluten-free pancakes, but one complaint this year is that they have a sign in the window advertising gluten-free pizza - my husband even mentioned it to our waitress when we had breakfast there, and she smiled and acted like, yes, they do now offer the pizza. So....we went for dinner one night. And, no, they don't offer gluten-free pizza, they are still tryiing to get the right oven delivered. He was very disappointed, although there are worse fates than having to "settle" for one of their pancakes for dinner! Like the coffee, too, but if you like it strong, be sure to order it Dutch style (they must have had complaints from some Americans who prefer weak American style coffee).

Once again had excellent pizza with Gouda cheese, delicious beef sate, and amazing home made tomato soup, in addition to Linda\\\'s spectacular Dutch pancakes!!!

Fantastic service as always and terrific prices makes Linda\\\'s pancakes and Pizza one of our favorite restaurants in Aruba!

Its always great to experience new food and go to restaurants where the regular residents go. This restaurant always has a great variety of food and has a great staff to make your evening even better. The restaurant is in a busy area, but conseals any niose by the nice outdoor patio that most people sit at.

The pancakes are fantastic. The numerous flies are very annoying while eating in the outdoor dining area. Knowing this I highly recommend Linda's Pancakes. The quality of the food overcomes any shortcomings you might find.

No visit to Aruba would be complete without at least one visit to Linda's for pancakes. We love it here! My favorite is the walnut and brie with honey. Dan often has his - half strawberry and half ham and cheese. Not an IHOP which is why we enjoy it so much.

Another day where we had to kill some time as we checked out of Divi Golf and had to wait to check in at Casa Del Mar. We all had pizza as we had never tried the pizza here. DW had a small pizza with mozzarella & green peppers, DD had a small one with onions, and I had a medium one with pepperoni. It was raining lightly, but noticed that the road was still flooded from the previous days rain – drove through the Valero station again arriving & leaving. We had 3 rounds of drinks to kill time. We all enjoyed our pizzas and it was very filling. We weren’t that hungry after we checked in at CDM. Had planned to go to Matthews, but opted for fresh fruit salad on the balcony.
