O yum! Just went here last weekend and it's like Spain in NL. The only way you know otherwise is to…read morehear people speaking Dutch and to see the prices (not expensive for NL at all but compared to Spain, yes). There are many sandwich options to choose from both warm and cold as well as warm and cold tapas. My friend and I each had a sandwich and a drink and shared 3 tapas. We ended up each paying about 11-12 euros. And the quality was excellent. Really a good lunch. This place is busy. There are people waiting for tables both inside and outside.It's small so depending on how many people there are it may take a while. For us we only had to wait about 5 minutes. There are people walking in all the time to get sandwiches to go or to buy deli meats/cheeses/tapas. Definitly try this place out for lunch!

I had some high hopes for the tapas, but my standards are a bit high after living in Spain for some time. The Iberian ham was pretty good, as was the chorizo (fried) and sangria. There are some strange Dutch-ism to the Spanish cuisine (like their wrap with smoked salmon and cream cheese?), but it's mostly on point. Everything on the menu is quite heavy, so if you're looking for light tapas, better try somewhere else, or stick to the olives. For Dutch standards, the food and service here are great. The price is moderate, but the ambiance is worth it. This super cozy spot is located smack dap in the city centre of Haarlem, across from the big church and near all the "happening nightlife". We've been back several times for beers, Iberian ham and reminiscing.

Great location in the center of Haarlem, especially in the summer on their terrace…read more Inside it's a bit cramp with too many tables on too little a surface. Nice if you want to listen in on your neighbours, but not so nice if you want to have a romantic of business conversation. The food: mhoaw. I suspect there is not much home made. They claim to be Spanish, but there is not a Spanish chef in sight. We had some potatoe ommelet (yuk!), croquetas (OK) and cheeses (OK, but nothing special). As a conclusion I would say it's a great place for summer drinks, but not for dinner.

Viqh, Viqh, Viqh... Haarlem does desperately need you because modern, swanky wine bars are in short…read moresupply here - and that is what you're trying to be. But, why does it all have to be so cheesy and overpriced? People who spend time at Viqh seem more than happy to cuddle up with 50 strangers in a closet to drink a €13 glass of 'eh' wine and sit on cheap fabrics... but I, I would rather buy the €7 train ticket to Amsterdam and go to a much more elegant and quiet space to enjoy a much better glass of wine. I'm not saying that there's no reason to go to Viqh, because when you're in Haarlem and you don't want to grab a Heini in a brown bar (tee hee), this is one of the few places in Haarlem to go. But it's struggling to live up to its hype in my eyes.

A cool place to go as an alternative to drinking beer. I am normally a beer person, but this place…read moreis nice every once in a while. They are usually pretty crowded but I think it makes for a "gezellig" atmosphere. Their wine list is organized by country and mostly everything I've had there is good. I would recommend doing the wine tasting. There are different price levels that you can pick starting at only €5,50. You get 3 small glasses of wine (white or red, your choice) and then when they bring the wine over they explain all about the three different ones that you picked.

My mom and I booked Envy for their New Year's Eve tasting menu. The place was packed when we…read morearrived for our 9:15pm reservations, but we were warmly greeted by the kind hostess who doubled as waitress throughout the night. Our waiter so sweet and was as attentive as he possibly could be given the chaos of the evening. Every table was full and the kitchen was working their butt off. I'll summarize each course: Bread and Butter: Amazing and we managed to finish the whole loaf by our 3rd course. Mackerel with Kale: This was tasty, especially the crispy roasted Kale Potato with Eel: The sauce was very flavorful, but there was only 2 small pieces of eel. Halibut with Fermented Mushroom: I enjoyed this, the halibut was so buttery and creamy. Deer with Cauliflower: I've never had deer before, but this was dIfficult to cut through. It was cooked medium rare and had a very slight gamey taste, but still good. The cauliflower had roasted macadamia nuts on top that was to die for. Cheese Plate: The server dropped this off without explaining what was on the plate. I'm guessing it was Brie, Bleu and some other hard cheese. I don't know what the other two dipping jams were, but they were good. Prickly Pear Sorbet Dessert: The presentation was beautiful, but I felt like there were too many flavors going on to really enjoy it. Envy is best reserved for a special occasion and I would definitely come back for a regular dinner to try their traditional tasting menu. It was a great spot to spend the New Year as the crowd was fun and friendly.

I stumbled upon this place on accident trying to get out of the cold in Amsterdam and I'm glad that I did! The aesthetic was homey but with a modern twist-I felt like I was in a family members home eating dinner. The service could have been better which was odd because it wasn't really busy. This was my first time trying true Italian pasta outside of the States and now I can't look back. I would for sure recommend this place for a chill and familiar vibe for a drink or a bite to eat.
