At Karavaan, we believe in starting the day right. Our doors open early to welcome you to our cosy neighbourhood café in Amsterdam Oud-West, just a stone’s throw from De Hallen. Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to wake up with a strong espresso, a place to get some work done with one of our all-in deals, or somewhere to catch up with friends, our bright and welcoming urban oasis is the perfect meeting spot. Grab a seat and enjoy a laid-back morning or afternoon.
As the go-to all-day neighbourhood spot near Bilderdijkstraat, we’ve got everything you need for the perfect start or break in your day:
Breakfast from 9:00 AM
Start your morning with one of our breakfast favourites. Go for a fresh Greek yoghurt bowl or fluffy American pancakes. Prefer a lie-in? No problem! Until 4:00 PM, you can enjoy our delicious All-Day Croissants, including savoury options with a surprising twist, and our All-Day Eggs. Think creamy scrambled eggs on sourdough or a hearty, warming shakshuka with feta.
Lunch from 12:00 PM
From noon onwards, our menu expands with plenty of options for a leisurely brunch or tasty lunch. Treat yourself to one of our signature generously filled pitas, or choose artisan sourdough topped with favourites like fish or steak tartare. Looking for something lighter? We also serve fresh salads and flavourful warm dishes, such as lentil dahl. Perfect with a fresh juice on the side!
Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite on your lunch break or settling in for a long brunch with friends, you’re always welcome at Karavaan. During the day, smaller groups can usually just walk in. Want to make sure you have a table inside, or planning brunch with a larger group? Simply book ahead through our website.
Can I work from Karavaan with my laptop?
Absolutely! Karavaan is a popular spot for remote working in Amsterdam West. We have comfortable places to sit with your laptop, good Wi-Fi and even special all-in work deals including coffee and lunch.
Are there plenty of vegetarian and vegan lunch options?
Yes, definitely. Our daytime menu has a wide range of vegetarian and plant-based dishes. From breakfast bowls and generously filled veggie pitas to fresh salads, there’s something for everyone.
Until what time can I order breakfast and lunch?
You can enjoy our all-day dishes until 4:00 PM. Our egg dishes and filled croissants, along with the rest of our lunch menu, are available daily until then.
Do I need to book for breakfast or lunch?
Reservations aren’t required during the day, and you can usually just walk in for a table inside or on the terrace. For busy weekend brunches or larger groups, however, we recommend booking a table in advance.
