Ax Specialty Coffee in Oude Stad

AX Speciality Coffee in Haarlem is a great little place for a coffee break. The cappuccinos were excellent, creamy and smooth with great flavor. The espressos were decent too, though the cappuccinos stood out more for me. One of the highlights was discovering the next-door offerings: delicious pasteis de nata and a focaccia with ham that was absolutely packed with flavor. It was a nice surprise and paired really well with the coffee. Overall, it’s a good spot with quality coffee and some tasty bites on the side. Worth a visit if you’re in Haarlem and in need of a cozy coffee break.

I had a Cortado here for the first time today and absolutely loved it. It came in a small shot glass and was perfectly balanced. both the coffee and the milk were delicious. I could really feel the owner’s passion for coffee in every detail. Even the customer next to me was enjoying the same drink, which made the experience feel even more special. I might come back again tomorrow!

Ax is the coffee bar in Haarlem With Insanely Delicious Cappuccino, the Beautiful Authentic Building "next to the butcher" has a few spots inside, a seat in front of the door and a Friendly Barista / Owner who has a passion for Coffee. Highly recommended for all coffee lovers!

We were looking for the best coffee in Haarlem, and we found it! Freshly grinded Peruvian beans and such a lovely aromatic taste. Lovely persons working there also. Thank you!

Beat flat white in the Netherlands!

A hidden gem with great coffee and try the banana bread!

Cozy little tent. Tasty espresso.

Superb espresso! The offering today were some great washed Ethiopian beans. The owner is passionate about coffee, these are the best type of places to have a good coffee.

Go to place for breakfast/lunch and coffee. Very very cute place and nice staff

High-quality coffee is served here. I had a washed Ethiopian coffee from Stooker – absolutely delicious!

Very cute place with a tasty chai latte, banana bread and nice staff

I moved out of Haarlem months ago and I miss this place so much! It’s my favourite coffee spot in the city

Hands down this is the best coffee experience in town. By town I mean Netherlands, or Europe, or maybe the world, because I think of this place every time before having coffee anywhere else in the world. True story.

A cosy place for some good coffee

An amazing hole in the wall coffee place. Ax, the owner, was friendly and made an amazing flat white. And the banana bread was delicious. The tables down the corridor felt like Harry Potter. Super cool!

Delicious latte, very cozy, one of the few open in the early morning, highly recommended!

By far the best coffee I have ever had. Ax is very friendly and is always playing great music too! 10/10

Top tent for coffee ❤️ I ordered a few cappuccinos and it was made quickly. It also tasted really good compared to other places in the area. Even the cups were of better quality. Price is also cheaper than the normal tents I go to The tent also has matcha for lovers and cakes 🧁.

I was there in Juli, definitely the best cappuccino in the Netherlands, probably the best I’ve ever had. Perfect acidity. Almost pear and orchard fruit flavours, but caramel and nutty at the same time. Organic milk frothed to perfection, beautiful latte art. Stunning atmosphere, directly on an old town street with canal view and water sounds. Perfect experience!!👍

Best coffee in Haarlem. (Point). The difference between Ax and other coffee places is that the owner makes the coffee himself and not his staff. He throws all his attention, passion, knowledge, experience and love into every cup, made for you. And you can taste that You don't come across that much anymore And that's why it's the best place for me

It is all about the coffee. Nothing else matters. Only the coffee. And the coffee is perfect. Thank you!

The best espresso is here 🥹 and very friendly barista!

We had heard such great things about this coffee shop and it totally delivered! We got two americanos and a cappuccino to go and they are all fantastic! The owner was great and we loved the feel and vibe.

Extremely good coffee! Just perfect in every sense.

If you are really a coffee fanatic, this is definitely recommended!

If I could give eleven stars you would get eleven!!

Took a really long time, I had made the wrong drink at first and my matcha latte was actually only milk, not much matcha

Delicious espresso (and brownie!)

Unbelievably great coffee and awesome barista :)

One of the best coffees I had in Amsterdam so far. Enjoyed the Cappuccino and the Iced Latte with Oat Milk. Thank you!

Perfection! The cappuccino tastes great and looks fantastic. Best quality!

Been coming here before work for the past year or so, and I will continue to come here for as long as he's here. Lovely atmosphere, excellent coffee that's made with passion for the craft, and overall great service. 10/10 would recommend

I love everything about this place. The fact it’s small, the variety of options and how good their coffee is. It’s relatively close to Haarlem station and if you could be lucky to have a seat, you would enjoy a nice gather. The guy who helped us was super nice and friendly

Finally found a good coffee shop where the coffee is made with love.

The smalles coffee place I know. Few seats inside and outside some. After having a cappuccino in different specialty coffee places I can say that this is one of the best if not the best place to have a coffee in Haarlem

One of the best coffees in Haarlem. And a very cosy room in the back on top of that! Coffee taste delicious. Highly recommend.

Amazing specialty coffee :) service is great. Tiny but perfect

Everything you need to enjoy a good coffee. Nice music too!

Best coffee in Haarlem! And a super friendly owner. I always like to come there for my morning coffee. Recommended!

Perfect coffee every time we’ve been 👍

Delicious smooth coffee. Best one you can find in Haarlem

a little less milk and a little more coffee (in terms of taste) in the flat white would be perfect. it is very difficult to find a good flat white in the Netherlands if you are used to Aus ;-)

Delicious coffee and top service

Best coffee in Haarlem. Charming converted space hidden in the back. A must on the way from the station to the center.

I like how cosy and hidden is this cafe. And I recommend this small beautiful cafe.

Really-really nice cappuccinos here.

A nice, cozy little shop with good coffee. I've been here a few times and it's been great every time! Cheerful, friendly staff and everything for a good price. Definitely worth it if you are ever in the area.

Perfect coffee. You can already tell how good it’s going to be walking through the door 👌🏽

Reliability great coffee and service

As an Australian, this place makes me feel home with amazing coffee.

Lekkere koffie en ik word altijd erg vriendelijk geholpen!

Klein, knus, gezelligheid en bovenal kwaliteit! Waarschijnlijk het kleinste koffie zaakje wat ik ken maar het is de moeite meer dan waard om even in de rij te wachten. De koffie is keer op keer geweldig en alle cakejes, koekjes en gebakjes zijn heerlijk. Absolute aanrader!

Echt goede koffie! Blij dat we dit tegen zijn gekomen. Super gastvrij en welkom gevoel. Hadden onze hondjes mee en hebben achterin gezeten gezellig. Aanrader!

Volgende vakantie ff Google Maps updaten. We komen uit Amsterdam, naar het strand, omweg voor je gemaakt....

Schönes kleines Café in der Innenstadt von Haarlem Personal war sehr freundlich Kaffee war richtig lecker! Fazit: absolut zu empfehlen, wir kommen gerne wieder

By far de beste koffie in Haarlem! Zeker een aanrader.

Just good coffee and every two weeks they have a new blend.

nice coffee place with nata from butcher shop next door. interesting.

Great vibes, great coffee, great everything

Klein ,maar fijn .Echt een aanrader en iets kleins bij de koffie zeker nemen

Ax is gewoon een topper. Zowel hij als z’n koffie.

Delicioso café de especialidad en el centro de Haarlem. Excelente y simpática atención!

Best coffee I’ve had in Europe, they know their stuff here!

Best coffee in town! The owner makes amazing coffee. On top of that the cafe is so cozy with such great vibes. I’m definitely aspiring to get a ‘vaste klant’ badge.

Thanks Ax, we loved your coffee

Best place in town to get your coffee! Nice cakes as well or get a Pastel di Nata next door and simply enjoy! Friendly service and very nice atmosphere 🙏🏻

Uitstekende dubbele espresso. Fijne service, relaxed terrasje.

Love this place, the coffee is the best, there are always nice people around and the guy running the shop is a legend🫶🏽

Love this coffee so much. Very friendly people and cute place too.

Best coffee in town, als je het mij vraagt. Ax is attent, geïnteresseerd en onthoudt je bestelling als je vaker komt! Buiten op de stoeltjes of bankjes kun je lekker mensen kijken, binnen (als je geluk hebt) is het knus.

100٪ صغير وغير واضح راح تحصل زجاج مكتوب عليه AX

Small coffee shop. Excellent coffee. Rotates bean selections every 4-6 weeks. Great service.

Excellent flat white in a small space in town. Look for the yellow chairs

5 stelle. Spettacolare! Provare x credere

Geweldige koffie en een gezellige plek!

Haarlem Kruisstraat heel fijn koffie drinken bij AX specialty Coffee. Zeer sfeervol klein zaakje met een vriendelijke barista/eigenaar. Entree en winkel zijn in een oude en sfeervolle ambiance gemaakt, wat zeker bijdraagt aan de totale ervaring. Lekkere koffie en prima bediend door de barista. Gezellig kletspraatje gehouden met de eigenaar en andere klanten in de zaak. Zeer zeker een aanrader voor een bezoek, ik kom zeker terug voor een kop koffie bij AX special coffee.

The tastiest oat flatwhite I’ve ever had! Great ambiance and very friendly personnel. Highly recommend.

Super klein maar heel mooi koffietentje met de perfecte espresso en een prachtige cappuccino. Je raakt er snel in gesprek met andere koffiedrinkers, De smaak van de koffie is waanzinnig. Ook hebben ze zoete lekkernijen, en chailatte. Ik hoorde de beste van Haarlem.

Another great specialty coffee place not to miss in Haarlem. Delicious coffees. If you want, bring some bread from bakery near by and enjoy with a freshly brewed coffee.

Klein maar fijn. Een aanwinst in Haarlem. Knus, beetje krap ook ;) maar waanzinnig lekkere koffie. Ax, een man met passie runt de toko.

Een leuk klein stekkie wat Haarlem nog mooier maakt. Ax is een echte barista die alleen de beste koffie serveert.
