Oficina is a canteen, culinary studio, and shop, co-founded by Zana Josipovic and Naiara Sabandar.

Our canteen offers a seasonal, vegetable-forward menu where each ingredient is treated with care, allowing its natural character to shine. Drawing inspiration from global flavours and Naiara’s heritage, the dishes blend classic and contemporary elements, creating food that is both personal and quietly worldly. The drinks menu reflects the same attention to detail, with fine loose-leaf teas, ceremonial Matcha and Hōjicha powders, carefully sourced coffee, and curated beverages that complement each meal. 

Alongside our canteen service, our culinary studio brings the Oficina approach to events and collaborations. Our in-house chefs, designers, and production specialists oversee every element, from menus and recipes to presentation, tableware, and service. Every project is crafted with attention to detail, combining culinary expertise, design sensibility, and a respect for seasonality. The result is a thoughtful and alive experience where each dish, drink, and detail is carefully considered, visually striking, and joyfully edible.

Our shop is a natural extension of our canteen and culinary studio, continuing our approach to thoughtful eating and hospitality. It offers a carefully curated selection of food goods developed and produced in-house, teas served in the canteen, tea tools for home preparation, and non-food items chosen with care, many of which are used daily in our canteen. Each product combines contemporary design, considered craftsmanship, and timeless sensibility. The shop evolves gradually, introducing new items as either enduring classics or limited editions, all reflecting the current tastes and rhythms of our canteen.

Our unique approach to food and hospitality comes to life even further at our sister restaurant, Fonda, inside the Stedelijk Museum. The concept features two distinct spaces: Fonda Coffee Bar in the entrance hall, offering casual fare like in-house baked goods and La Cabra coffee, and Fonda Café on the first floor, where refined, seasonal dishes are served to museum ticket holders. With its inviting atmosphere and thoughtfully curated design, Fonda blends community, creativity, and nourishment, creating a space to pause and connect within the dynamic museum environment.
