Small and cozy

Cafe lief means cafe love, and they really put love in their dishes. Very small place and easy going. Liked the food a lot. Also my non-vegan friends were impressed

Pros: Atmosphere , Food

Cons: Service was a bit slow

Cute place

Had a delightful time at this charming cafe. Tried the Bapao with tofu ‘chicken’ ball, while my friend opted for the potato waffle – I have to say, her choice was spot-on! Personally found the tofu ball a bit too salty, and more red cabbage would've been perfect. Requested extra pickles to balance the greens, but despite that, it wasn't too shabby. The place itself is adorable, and we wrapped up our meal with some delicious sweets, especially the cheesecake which was a winner!

One thing to note for improvement: It took a bit for the staff to notice us, even though we were seated right at the front, and that initial wait wasn't very welcoming.

Pros: Cute interior, Good selection of dishes

Cons: The staff seemed a bit distracted.

Blijmakend!

De koffie vind ik hier niet zo lekker (kwestie van smaak) maar o wat word ik blij van Lief. Verrukkelijk en verrassend eten en zo fijn om als vegan eens een keer keuzestress te hebben bij het uitkiezen van iets lekkers!
Ook als het heel druk is zijn ze hier vriendelijk en ik zou bijna zeggen: lief 😊
Kortom: ik ben fan en raad Lief ten zeerste aan.

Top notch cafe

Very cozy cafe, friendly staff, and delicious food. The menu changes, but everything is vegan.

Too many options to choose from really! The breakfast, brunch, drinks, and sweets are all delicious.

The location is away from the city centre, but it’s worth the trip to try this wonderful cafe.

Cute, Cozy, Tasty

Really interesting dishes with a very homey atmosphere. The sitting area in the front is cute and cozy. Price for the food is really good for what you get. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great brunch spot.

I got the potato waffle with oyster mushrooms and my husband got the shakshouka. Both dishes were delicious, with creative use of ingredients, but if I had to choose between the two I would go for the potato waffle (but that’s just because i’m not huge on bell peppers). I was planning on trying a cheesecake slice or tiramisu after, but the entrees were so filling I couldn’t eat anything else.

Coffee was also very good.

Pros: Unique dishes, Comfy and calm atmosphere

Ik heb je lief bij café lief

De naam lief is passend: bij lief leaf zijn ze aardig en alles is vegan.
De menukaart is origineel en steeds met andere gerechten. Ik nam verschillende heerlijkheden en de kwaliteit is van hoog niveau.
Het café is vooral gericht op ouders met kleine kinderen, maar er was een rustig hoekje te vinden.

Warm and friendly vegan eatery 💜💜

We really enjoyed our brunch here today. Sweet, comfortable easy-going restaurant with what tastes like home-cooked vegan food, great cappuccinos, and super friendly service.
The owner is from New Zealand and was very familiar with HappyCow. We came during the day but when the topic of New Zealand wines came up (I told her that I frequently would buy New Zealand wines even if they did not say they were organic because of the clean farming there) she mentioned that they have a large selection.
We would love to go back to sample!

Gezellig & kindvriendelijk Vegan lunchpakket

Hier kun je heerlijk lunchen in Haarlem, net buiten het centrum in de Cronjé.

Ideaal om hier met kleine kinderen heen te gaan, zo is er een kindermenu en een speelhoek met schommelstoelen waar je rustig in kunt zitten.
