La Fresh in Binnenstad-Noord

Tasty fries with (too) many sauce options. Extremely friendly staff.

Best fries in Leiden. Best service. Don’t leave Leiden without giving them a try

Cozy and friendly service Delicious food and lots of choice

Loaded Fries Indonesia are my absolute favorite loaded fries - from anywhere. Aside from that the employees are very friendly and the service is fast even when it’s super busy - which is often! It was impressive how well they handled how busy it was on October 3rd last year. :)

La Fresh,....prominently located in the Haarlemmerstraat in Leiden, is certainly more than the standard snack bar. The fries are freshly cut and you can taste that. Some of the sauces are prepared in their own kitchen, with the homemade peanut sauce definitely worth mentioning. Friendly staff and the owner really has an eye for customers and a chat. Works at least as hard. More than enough seats inside....and if you are lucky you can sit outside on a tiny terrace and "people watch"...

The London ones were divine and could have used more pickles.

Don't take fries stew there is no piece of meat in it. And it is ready-made mess not edible. You pay a lot for it and it is not tasty.

2025.5.31 I ordered a soft serve ice cream for 1.5€ The smooth and rich soft serve ice cream was exactly the same as the one I had in Japan, which brought back memories. The size was just right and the price was reasonable. The soft serve ice cream was a little runny from the start and melted quickly, dripping down the side of the cone, so be careful when giving it to small children. The staff were friendly and helpful with a smile. Credit cards are accepted.

It was very tasty. The staff was super friendly! Enjoyed it!

The most expensive fries I've ever eaten in a dull shopping mall! 10.50 for 2 fries with. Uhhh at Bram's you get twice as much for less and tastier.

This weekend we went to eat with my daughter, freshly made fries and the sauce that I was allowed to taste by the owner was great. Mayo with a bit of mustard in.. The Belgians. Btw we keep our fingers crossed for the daughter in Leuven 🤞

Good fries, sauces, and drinks at a reasonable price, considering it's located downtown. There are plenty of different seating options, as the interior extends quite far back. Since it was cold, windy, and rainy outside during our visit, we were glad that there were so many nice seats in the back. It wasn't cold at all there. The staff was friendly. There are many sauces to choose from, listed on a board at the ordering counter. We really enjoyed the Joppie sauce. This restaurant also offers a good selection of loaded fries, but we didn't try it.

Good variety's, tasty. Friendly. Worth a visit if you're looking for something quick my easy but tasty.

Wonderful place for frites with all kinds of toppings.

Fresh hand cut fries! Lots of choice in sauce and super friendly and attentive staff.

Was continuously addressed in English even though this employee could speak Dutch. Then I asked for a strawberry milkshake and the employee repeated "strawberry milkshake". Then I got vanilla anyway. Refused to give a new one and kept insisting that my white colored milkshake is strawberry flavour. Ridiculous and extremely rude. You really can't deal with customers like that.

Had dinner here last night, what incredibly sweet staff, service-oriented, super friendly upon arrival, while eating and leaving and fries/croquettes, super fresh and prepared with care, compliments!

The best chip shop in the Netherlands.

After taking the photos, my colleague and I enjoyed delicious fries and a milkshake. The peanut sauce was definitely the winner for us. Thanks for the hospitality. Paul | Omni VR

Delicious fries, friendly owner and service! They have an extensive menu and I will definitely come back to try something new!

It is a nice place to stop and eat and snack, you can sit in a warm and clean place. We ordered 2 loaded fries, and my boyfriend orden the Korean and he liked it, I ordered the Italian and didn't like the truffle mayo didn't taste good quality and the mixed flavor with the cheese, truffle mayo and fries was a bit sweet, so I ate only the fries.

Delicious fries, friendly staff.

This is the best Fries place in Leiden for sure and the quality of the food is exceptional! Gotta love the staff and atmosphere too!

Quality! Always very pleasant staff.

We were warmly welcomed a few minutes before closing time and were allowed to eat our food inside because it was raining. Owner was very friendly and the fries were delicious!

Delicious fries! Very nice staff and definitely recommended!!

Friendly staff, I was helped very quickly! They also have good fresh fries! ☺️ definitely worth repeating.

Despite the extremely tasty peanut sauce, we miss the old guard behind the counter. The people around us had to wait more than fifteen minutes for their fries today, they even wanted to have an older couple pick up fries that had been on the counter for more than fifteen minutes. Totally uninspired staff, absent, impersonal; We miss everything that was here a few years ago, friendly and nice men who had a chat. We always stopped by when we were in Leiden, but this afternoon we saw everything that this place never was...a shame!!!

Super friendly staff! Delicious peanut sauce

Just really good fries! Choice of different mayos Meatball in gravy really tasty. Not too dry, but nice and tender/smooth.

The food is okay, but especially the decor makes it cozy. There is nothing wrong with the service, just the difference between an electronic detector or someone who brings you food. That deserves a star, right?

The best fry shop I've been to in the Netherlands so far. The food was incredible, our party got the Indonesian and Korean loaded fries and everything in them tasted so good and fresh. The fries are cut fresh and super crispy, you can really tell the difference between here and the other cafeterias that use frozen poor quality fries. Plus the atmosphere is really cozy and there's tons of seating, AND the owner came through to ask us how our food was, and was so happy to hear we liked it that he brought us free homemade oliebollen. Can't recommend enough!

Great snack bar. We recommend the Loaded fries from different countries.

They put a nice twist on a snack bar here. Delicious fries!

Excellent chip shop in the center, where you can order different "sizes" of cones of fries. Then delivered in a standard.....handy! Tasty, but pricey and the sauces are limited. Furthermore, a great "snack" for a day in the city.

Burger was ok, fries very good. The employee was super patient and did a spontaneous sauce tasting with me when I was unsure which sauce I wanted to use. Definite recommendation.

Food typically Dutch. There were language problems when taking the order and the man at the checkout seemed quite annoyed. Fries, kaas croquettes and frikandels were delicious.

Very tasty fries and bitterballen, friendly service, gladly again!

Fries very good, prices acceptable compared to other restaurants. Was delicious! We had menu 3 with this cheese!

What a beautiful snack bar... 2 very nice men behind the counter... looks clean... the fries are a big 8 and the peanut sauce is even better... Asked if I could have a beer...we only have fake beer...but across the street you can get a beer and drink it on our terrace....lol....super tent....I give an 8.2

Bought normal and large fries with sauces. Even though the prices for the sauces are same(on receipt) sauces were small for the normal one????? Why do i pay for the same money but get smaller sauce

Best fries in Leiden, good prices and nice portions

I don't know what they did with the fries, I think they were pre-fried or reheated too long bah bah…. It used to be okay, but I don't need this anymore

Tastiest fries in all of Leiden

The seller either had a bad day or doesn't like people. Ok but the fries are super tasty and highly recommended 👍better than in Belgium 2 days ago and the best ever in the Netherlands 🤷🏻‍♀️👏🏻 I can only recommend them

Their friench fries is soo good. Very creative with mix that with nut sauce ( sambal kacang )

Was highly recommended on Google maps but it was just ok on my experience. Quite expensive for what it was. Staff not particularly helpful or friendly.

Very tasty fries/fries. Also very nice and funny staff. We'd love to come back!

Were very satisfied :) will come again

Very, very tasty, frikandel with curry mayo sauce and two fries. Really great. Very friendly staff. Always happy 😀😀😀

The service speaks several languages, which is very accommodating. The food is simple but very tasty, the fries are handmade

We waited about 30 minutes with my infant and after this time, they told us ‘sorry we forget your orders’. We just ordered patat, not a complex menu. If you go there, remind you and your orders in every 2 minutes.

Delicious fresh fries, friendly staff. Small downside: the sanitary facilities were not very fresh later in the day. But I have rarely eaten such tasty fries...

When I'm in Leiden, I always eat here. Everything is tasty. Today a portion of chicken satay with delicious peanut sauce. The price of € 9.50 for a portion of satay could be a bit less in my opinion.

Truly delicious French fries, if you come to Leiden, you must try them.

Delicious fries, cut in-house and fried just right. They have so many different sauces that it is always difficult to choose. And then I'm not even talking about the tasty snacks to go with the fries! I've been coming here since they opened many years ago and have been a big fan and loyal visitor ever since!

We have been coming here every holiday for several years and eating fries with peanut dip/sauce I can only recommend it, a very interesting and tasty combination On vacation every year 🫶🏻

You can get good fries at a lot of places in Leiden. But great fries are rare… Been here more than once and was never disappointed! Hospitality is also a big thing over here :-)

It's an amazing place to eat as a tourist. The staff is so polite n friendly. Ambiance is too good. A must visit place....

It was delicious and the personal was really friendly.I recomend this place to all tourist around the world 👍

The place is nice and the staff are nice. The potatoes taste just right and are a legend, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Some good quality fries in the city center of Leiden. I wouldnt say they are among the best I ever had but this place does offer many different sauces and loaded fries, which differentiates it from many other frietshops in the area. The staff was also very friendly and the portions were fair.

Very nice guy who always cleans the container when I order salty fries due to kidney disease.

Very good in taste, I recommend it!! ;)

If something is not entirely satisfactory, it will be resolved top-notch. Great service!!

Awesome Lunch Place and super friendly staff, definitely worth a visit for ur cravings 😋 specially if ur on holiday

Delicious food at a good price The service was very friendly

Small, unpretentious chip shop where we tasted all types of fast food such as snacks, burgers... fair prices and generous portions, you will also have a wide choice of sauces (all optional and with extra charge) The staff is very professional and welcoming, you will delight young and old alike with a cone or something else if you feel like it.

Average chips, with an abundant selection of overpriced mayonnaise. Although mayonnaise is a hallmark of the Dutch cuisine, it doesn't really add to the experience by having a dozen different ones. You can only pick one, and most snackbars have only one or two good ones. Half of the typical Dutch snackbar items are not on the menu here, which is too bad. The pricing is pretty high for a snackbar. It seems that the aim is to reel in tourists that are shopping at the Haarlemmerstraat by looking a little fancy and then charging them top price. Without any reference you'd think you're in a good place. Many cheaper places around town, with much tastier chips and a better selection of snacks available around town. Lately the restaurant has been having problems with plumbing and rodents as well. The owner has been blaming residents around the establishment for this. No idea what's the truth in this, but I am slightly concerned with the overall hygiene and food safety nonetheless.

Nice little snack bar with very tasty fries. The fries are freshly made and peanut sauce is warmed up. It's worth making a stop here. There is some seating inside with a pleasant ambience.

Had delicious fries with the girls. A normal price and tasty fresh fries

I actually spontaneously ate some fries here. Delicious fries and great service! And here I was just allowed to order a war of fries 😉

For a kind of snack bar, very stylish inside, we ate fries and croquettes there

Average fries, small size portions, XL Large as Normal size elsewhere.

Pretty good fries and croquettes. Quite expensive! Charging 1.10 for a simple bun is exaggerated.

Has been coming here since I moved 3 years ago to the area consistently the best chippie of the Leiden region.

I ordered xl fries with peanut sauce to take away. We had to wait 15/20 minutes for this while there were 4 staff members present. We had been given a timer that did not go off... at one point we were asked what exactly we had ordered and whether we wanted to take it with us... And was it worth the wait? No, very few fries seemed like a normal portion and for 7.75 a lot of money for little, the taste was not much special either.

Very good fries and Flemish stews

The food was received hospitably and tasted good. Had the food quickly too.

The manager is racist and has a bad personality!

Delicious, fresh fries. Ordered Indonesian loaded fries, delicious and vegan! Friendly employees.

Good time for homemade fries. Quite copious.

Gewoon lekker eten en niet te duur. Ze nemen er de tijd voor om liefde in te stoppen. Niet supergoedkoop, maar dat maakt niks uit.

Fries were rock hard felt like I was biting into a tree branch. Could literally balance a pot on it.

The service was friendly and fast and the atmosphere is nice with music in the background and nice lighting and the food tasted delicious

Delicious fries and wide choice of sauces. Pleasant. Highly recommended.

Very unfriendly and smaller proties than hoped for the price

Die Pommes waren ganz gut, die Käsesoße und die grüne Soße waren akzeptabel, der Preiß mit 9 Euro zu hoch.

Beste cafetaria/patatzaak van Leiden... Veel keuzes en de service is echt top... 👌🏾👊🏾💪🏾🤙🏾

10€ voor 2 frites met mayonaise is niet leuk méér

What a great atmosphere, thank you!

Ausgezeichnete Pommes mit den typischen Spezial Soßen. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Super leckeres Essen. Nicht nur die Pommes. Auch Burger und Frikandel Spezial sehr zu empfehlen. Der Besitzer steht oft selbst hinter dem Tresen und ist immer für eine nette Unterhaltung zu haben...in verschiedenen Sprachen. Wir sind jedes Jahr in den Niederlanden Urlaub machen und der Besuch hier ist bei uns mehrere male Pflicht!

Pommes ok, aber Preise viel zu hoch. In Delft gibt es das gleiche für 3,60 anstatt 6,60 mit Spezialsosse.

I am an experienced fries eater: these are the best ever!

This is by far the best fries the city has to offer. The best potatoes, sauce and all prepped by passionate and professional crew! Highly recommended!

Lekker frietje gegeten! En de eigenaar gaf nog wat tips wat je kan doen in en rondom Leiden. Echte aanrader om hier een frietje te nuttigen!

You might wait a wee while for your chips but that’s because they are freshly cooked to order. And it is definitely worth the wait. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and no excess oil or fat. Absolutely delicious. It is slightly stressful deciding what sauce to have with them - there is lot to choose from. But what ever you go for, you won’t be disappointed.

The fries were tasty, different from other places in Leiden. I also had a milkshake which was tasty (much better than MacDonald's). The table was perfectly located outside. They also have many tables inside for rainy days. The menu seems to be varied but I didn't get to try anything but the fries.

Gute Pommes, allerdings ein wenig Salz
