Café Keppler

Arie Keppler, the café’s namesake, would approve. This isn’t a generic hipster coffee house, but a place that feels like an old village pub. They roast their own coffee—and they do it very well. My favourite is the filter/batch brew: so clean, full of all kinds of fruit notes, yet still just a really good cup of coffee. I have their soup for lunch almost every week. Nearly always different. Nearly always vegan. Always a big, warm hug. Try the omelette. A proper French one, served on their own crispy bread with tangy mayonnaise, as mayo should be. Simple, but not basic. I love reading the newspaper here. Secretly listening to the conversation at the next table. Or just tuning into their carefully curated music. Home. As always, everyone gets five stars.

I found this spot the same day I was leaving Amsterdam. I wish I has discovered it sooner! I had a toast with cheese and eggs, a cinnamon roll and two coffee cups. Everything was amazing. I could notice this place was a locals’ favorite, no wonder why. Perfect place if you’re looking for quality coffee and food.

I found this cafe walking from my hotel on the way to the ferry. It was a busy morning but seating was still available. I was served quickly and the staff was very friendly. I ordered a cappuccino and the omelette on toast. They were both delicious. The tunes playing were perfect to set a good cafe vibe. It was a pleasant surprise to find this cafe and I look forward to returning.

We stopped on a Sunday afternoon and ate in the outside area. The service was excellent as was the soup of the day (lentil) and a vegan pesto sandwich of the day. So delicious I couldn't stop talking about it.

The worst place where I had breakfast in Amsterdam. Rude service and absolutely no understanding of what hospitality means. There is no option to order extra eggs or add ham to an egg breakfast, or even add eggs to a sandwich - only as a separate item, which makes it impossible to balance the meal. Their argument was: ‘we don’t do personalized orders.’ The question is: is simply adding an extra ingredient really personalization, or is it an upsell and an opportunity for the business to earn more? What’s most surprising is that, knowing my preferences and what I wanted, the waitress didn’t even try to suggest any alternatives. Instead, she continued to behave aggressively. Oh, and if you want to get coffee to go — that’s impossible as well. They don’t have takeaway cups

Local cafe in residential area north of Ij. Great coffees , spirits and food. Had apple cake for afternoon tea then cheese omlette with mayo/mustsard bread. Lovely vibe and people. No smoking.

Cafe Keppler is an excellent Cafe in Amsterdam North, especially for relaxing on the weekend. A chill atmosphere, with simple and cozy decor. The food is good and the dishes are fresh. Possibility of enjoying outdoor spaces during sunny days.

Stumbled across this great cafe in search for a take away breakfast for friends and I. The staff were very friendly, the food delicious and the coffee to die for. Thank you for a wonderful start to the day. Highly recommend 🥰

Near our hotel, we found this cute little cafe. My friend and I wanted to have a light breakfast and this was perfect! We ordered the omelette and egg fried sandwich with some cappuccino. Honestly , the food was so delicious, you can even taste the high quality ingredients compared to America. This was 11/10! The service was excellent, everyone was very friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend and definitely coming back again to this place!

Great service, limited breakfast, scrumptious looking pastry's. The bread used was delicious!!

Nice walk from Sir Adam to this cute coffee shop. Excellent filtered coffee and helpful service staff. Will return for a meal

I'm writing this assuming anybody interested is an American on vacation. Anyway... This is the best breakfast (best meal, really) I had in Amsterdam in my short time there. Everybody makes a big deal about the "Dutch pancakes" at the restaurants along the canals but personally the last thing I want is a gigantic pancake (sweet or savory) before spending the entire day walking around as a tourist. The food here is filling without being overly heavy and didn't feel unreasonably priced like one might find in the more touristy areas on the south side of the Ij. We had the "Egg with Bread" and the Shakshouka (which also comes with bread) and they were both delicious. The Shakshouka was by no means authentic but it was unique. The sauce and eggs were perfect and the whole thing was loaded with greens and eggplant. The Egg with Bread is exactly what it sounds like, fried eggs on a thick slice of bread with melted cheese and chives. Very simple, perfectly cooked with high quality ingredients. We also had the mint and ginger teas which are both house made (i.e. no teabags) and were served dangerously hot (think McDonald's lawsuit hot) which is exactly how I like it. We actually went there for breakfast twice. On the second, two days after the first, the staff recognized us and the chef came out to apologize for forgetting the eggplant in the Shakshouka and made sure to add extra. Well worth the short trip away from the city center.

We headed on our last night to Il peccorino at 7pm however we did not make a reservation and they were full. So we went across the street to Cafe Keppler. We got seated right away at the bar, we ordered our wine and within a few minutes later they offered us a table. Our waitress Nora came and we decided to let her surprise us and order for us. She simply asked if we were vegetarians ir had allergies. And she was off to surprise us! Her choice for our meals was a Beet salad with lentils, pumpkin, arugula, hazelnut and goat cheese and the Beef stew with potatoes and cannelli beans. For desert she brought a combination of an almond cake with plums and the apple pie with whipped cream. It was all wonderful. We finished our dinner with Monkey shoulder whiskey and Port. It's a cash only or maestro pay. Highly recommended.
