My favorite example of One Piece filler is often overlooked, because it's just a single stand-alone episode tacked on to the end of the Spa Island Arc. It's Episode 384. It's all about how Brook wants to feel like he belongs in the crew. I really like this concept since his becoming part of the crew always felt rushed in the manga, and this an example where the anime tries to fix it a bit. The episode just focuses on life on the Sunny. There's no real conflict, and the plot functions kind of like a sitcom almost. It only works so well because the characters on One Piece are so well-written and developed that you don't mind watching them doing whatever. Check it out if you want just some entertaining stuff for 20 minutes with One Piece characters involved.
