I've been looking into Haskell and it seems really good. But does it have mature and productive frameworks that handle database access, HTTP, etc., or am I better off just going with Elixir/Phoenix?

Yes, it has two mainstream libraries, simple-postgresql and hasql both of which have seen use in professional setting.

For server, you have choices such as servant, yesod and scotty, which too have seen industrial use.
