L’Approdo

Capri


If you've arrived on the ferry with an appetite, head here, a two-minute walk to the left from where you disembark. You can easily fill up on the superb antipasti spread, and the pizzas are agreeably blistered and varied – try the sfilatino with ricotta, ham and mozzarella. Seafood is pricier but as fresh as the day’s catch.

There are good views of the colourful fishing boats and nets from the sprawling outdoor terrace, with little to remind you of Capri’s fabled glitz up the hill.
