Belly Pepper

Incredible experience! The food was amazing, the dishes super rich tasty! The staff is also very nice and made us feel at home. Highly recommend for everyone that lives or visits Amsterdam!

Breakfast is a very special in Turkish cuisine, and long weekend breakfasts are an essential part of many Turkish family… Belly Pepper has simple iconic elements of a traditional Turkish breakfast and serve them with a rich and creative touch. Everything we tried was delicious—simple flavors with depth and quality. We truly enjoyed all. The only small point was that the simit could have been a bit more crispy. I’ll definitely come back again to try the other items on the menu. A place I can recommend for an flavorful Turkish breakfast experience! And you can even work there together with Turkish tea:)

Belly Pepper is hands down the best place for brunch in Amsterdam! The food is absolutely delicious—every dish is packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and you can really taste the creativity of the chef in every single dish served. Chef Esra and her team never dissappoint! Beyond the amazing food, the atmosphere is warm and cozy, making it the perfect weekend spot. The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, always making you feel right at home. It’s also a fantastic place for families—super child-friendly with a relaxed vibe, and pets are welcome as well. Highly recommending Belly Pepper to anyone in town !🧿🌞

This place is an amazing spot to go for a delicious lunch/brunch! What a great find! The food is really tasty and delicious. The personnel is friendly and helpful. I have been here several times and the quality of the food is excellent and very consistent in quality, quantity and taste. The dishes that I highly recommend are the Spinach & Cheese Börek with Poached Egg + optional minced meat. And the Simit Breakfast. Both dishes are great to have with their house made lemonade, which adds some acidity to these particular dishes. Highly recommended? Oh yes! Oh and they have some nice pastries and coffee as well to take with you on the go!

Food was great and the staff were welcoming. We had simit breakfast with spinach borek. Having Turkish tea on the menu is a great asset to have a full experience. We liked the flexibility around kids can have their own choices other than the plates on the menu. Cheese cake was very delicious to share next to your coffee. We came to the place on a Sunday morning, so it was quite crowded and noisy. Not sure if they can influence this issue but overall experience is great and recommended to visit!

I don’t just love brunch. I live brunch. If brunch were a religion, I’d be its most devoted disciple. If brunch were a person, I’d propose on the spot. In the five years I lived in Amsterdam, I made it my mission to try every single brunch place worth knowing. I thought I had found them all. Then I left. And when I came back, my friend dared, DARED, to suggest a new place. A new place? Shouldn’t we stick to the tried and true? The golden oldies? The classics we know are perfect? I was SO. WRONG. Belly Pepper is not just the best brunch I had in Amsterdam. It might just be the best brunch of my entire existence. I ordered the Spinach & Cheese Börek with Poached Eggs, and let me tell you: if taste buds could cry, mine would have sobbed uncontrollably. It was everything I never knew I needed in a brunch dish. The perfect balance of crispy, cheesy, melty, eggy perfection. And just when I thought my life had peaked, I made the audacious decision to order dessert. Pistachio Cheesecake. I don’t know what kind of sorcery went into making this, but if I had to choose between true love and another bite of that cheesecake…well, let’s just say I’d be writing my wedding vows to a slice of cake right now. It was like getting a hug from a pistachio-loving angel. A cloud of nutty, creamy, buttery euphoria. The Turkish tea was chef’s kiss, the service was impeccable, and the place itself? Cute, cozy, and the kind of spot you wish you could teleport to on a rainy Sunday morning. Honestly? Forget visiting my friends. Next time I’m in Amsterdam, I’m going straight to Belly Pepper. Actually, I am considering moving back to the city just for Belly Pepper. And you should too. Run, don’t walk. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 11/10, would brunch again and again and again.

Delicious turkish breakfast! The spinach & cheese borek with poached egg and the pistachio cheesecake were delicious! I definitely recommend!

Genuinely excellent Turkish food, which is (surprisingly) difficult to find in Amsterdam. Faultless experience. Owner is lovely and atmosphere was relaxed.
