"Small and very cool cafe. They offer very nice coffee of high quality. Also some cakes - croissant, carrot cake, cinemon rolls etc. Everything fresh and tasty. You can also buy coffee beans and they grind it based on your request ( for mocha pot, for french press, for espresso etc.) I love this place. And I can fully recommend it."

"Axel Coffee in Benidorm is a true gem. After years in the UK, Axel returned to Benidorm to open this unique coffee shop where he roasts his own beans, ensuring a consistently high-quality brew. Every visit is a delightful experience, and the latte is always top-notch. Pair it with their tosta de jamón for a perfect start to your day. Axel’s passion for coffee and his welcoming atmosphere make this spot a must-visit for both locals and tourists. Highly recommended!"

"It was nice to go to a cafe that offered a milk alternative as I can't have dairy. The staff were lovely and were patient when I was trying my best to order in Spanish. They also speak English. The music they were playing was rock and went well with the overall vibe of the cafe. 100% recommend."
