About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
On October 4th, 2022 the Dutch red windmill opened her doors to Fred & Diana.

Diana is known for Diana's Pancakes, across Barcelo and before that, she was the owner of a similar pancake place next to the mill.

Fred is known for his former restaurants Chef's Tables, 2 Fools and a Bull and Fred Restaurant in downtown Oranjestad.

The two decided to work together and King Fred & Princess Diana was born. Diana delights guests with Dutch pancakes in the morning, while Fred takes the reins in the evening, serving a diverse range of international cuisine for dinner.

On the second floor you will find our souvenir shop that can be visited anytime upon request.

The third floor belongs to Frans, who is a well known bartender in the Aruban hospitality industry. He will serve you cold drinks for a reasonable price.

    We were disappointed. The food was just not good..cafeteria like, and not flavorful. The chicken was advertised as Sous vide, but it tasted (and texture) like a frozen breaded chicken breast. The service was excellent, and our server was kind, and very attentive. We would not go back.

    This was our second dinner with King, Fred and Princess Diana. We also had breakfast there as well. We found it to be very unique in the setting being in a windmill ! It had a lot of charm and a lot of history. Our experience was personal and amazing. Marloes was our server, she’s not only made the best Cosmo I have ever had, but she explained everything very well and was very personable and kind. Our food was delicious. I had the cod with risotto. My husband had chicken cordon bleu . Both were prepared beautifully and served hot on a previous visit. We had the drunken chicken along with the mustard soup and the tuna appetizer are very well prepared as well and served with a smile.! we highly recommend this unique establishment. On some evenings, you can go upstairs to the top of the windmill and enjoy a beautiful view which we did take in last night with the sunset. There is bar service up there as well. Thank you very much. We had a great time and look forward to coming back again.

    Service was great, food was delicious, arrived hot and perfectly cooked. Was wondering if this place is new because there was nobody else there. We were there on a Saturday night and one couple came in while we were there. Location might have something to do with it. I hope word gets around and they start doing good business because we would like to go back next year.

    Good food for good value. Casual atmosphere, attentive waitstaff. Both the mustard soup and French onion were savory and served hot. The ravioli appetizer was delectable. The masala chicken packed spicy heat and was a hearty portion. The chicken cordon blue did not contain ham, but the chicken was tender, and the mushroom gravy a nice accompaniment. For dessert, the apple pie and stroopwaffel ice cream was excellent. Highly recommend.
