Kapitein Zeppos
About
Kapitein Zeppos is a vibrant Mediterranean‑inspired café‑restaurant tucked away in Amsterdam’s historic “Gebed Zonder End” alley, just a stone’s throw from the Rokin metro. Founded in 1987, the cozy venue blends rustic Dutch charm with sunny Southern flavours – think Italian pasta, Spanish tapas, and French pastries – all served on the historic wooden tables carved out of an old carriage house. With a relaxed atmosphere, live music on select evenings, and a spacious salon for private events, it’s a favourite for both locals and tourists looking to escape the city bustle. Breakfast and lunch are available from 12:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., while the dinner menu, crafted by the on‑site chefs, runs from 6:00 p.m. – 11:30 p.m. Reservations can be made by emailing kapitein@zeppos.nl or calling +31 20 6242057. The restaurant also offers group menus for parties of 10‑22, a beautiful “Claires Ballroom” for celebrations, and occasional boat‑tours that take guests on a short trip along the canals.
