Surprisingly boring

I love the concept of this place and was really looking forward to stopping by and trying a chimney cake. Unfortunately, I don’t think it lives up to the hype. While the presentation is great and there are plenty of varieties to choose from, it’s quite difficult to eat and, sadly, didn’t deliver on taste. It’s a shame, but I can't recommend it at the moment.

Looked beautiful tasted meh

Chimneys is a great concept. Unfortunately the ice cream itself isn’t that tasty and some of the toppings I got like the toffee had no taste at all. Wouldn’t go back but would love if this spot just tweaked some things it would be great.

Super yummy!

The chimneys were so good, super fresh and yummy!

Had one of their chip cookies as well and that was very good.

Ok

Unfortunately it was just ok. Nothing bad or so but i wasnt super impressed. My friend ordered peach ice cream and it turned out to be sorbet, and it wasnt in the information. She wanted soft ice cream witch i seams to be on the meny. Still i am very happy that they offer soft ice cream which we dont have in Sweden. Also i was full after a big dinner which can be a part of the disappointment.

Good but overrated

I would recommend this to anyone with a real sweet tooth. But for your average person it’s a bit more of a novelty and only worth it if you’re already close by or looking for a dessert on the larger side. I just think all the 5 star reviews are a little misleading.

Pros: Lots of options

Cons: A bit too large , A bit of a wait, Very messy

fun! but with a long wait.

delicious soft ice with different fillings and some sort of pastry ‘cone’. we expected it to go quite fast but the wait was a bit longer because the make the pastry fresh (really cool!). there were a ton of options and the ones we had also had fresh berries in it which was nice in an otherwise very heavy ice cream snack. i’m happy we tried it 🍦

the space needs a bit of work - wasn’t super cozy.

Fun pastry, long wait time

Chimney is a fun spin on the classic soft ice cone. Freshly baked, churro-like, cone with fresh berries and soft ice on it. They have a massive menu with all kinds of different setups, including the ‘build your own’ option.

We did however need to wait 20min. Which felt insane given that you’re paying for a little pastry with mostly premade stuff. I get that they make the cones from scratch. But we were the only people there for this time duration and it took 20 minutes. If there are more than 5 people it can, in theory, take almost up to an hour.

The result was interesting, in a good way! The best part however was the soft ice cream, and I don’t think the things around it was worth the extra 5€. Fun concept, but would rather have just a regular soft ice for a 1/3 of the price.

Pros: Concept, Wide option range, Friendly

Cons: Wait time, Price

Nicht ganz zu Ende gedacht

Zuerst: Es war lecker. Vor allem das Schoko Softeis.
Allerdings hat es 20 Minuten gedauert, bis es fertig war. Die Waffel war warm, so ist das Eis super schnell geschmolzen. Im Laufen zu essen war wegen Zeitmangel in meinem Fall nötig, hat mir aber meine ganzen Klamotten versaut.
Nehmt euch lieber Zeit und esst vor Ort.

Pros: Geschmack , Frische

Cons: Zeit, To Go kaum möglich

Slightly Inconvenient Take Away

I ordered The Original to take away. While the wait of ~10 Minutes was a little annoying, it was understandable considering that the bread/cake was freshly baked. Quality that was absolutely reflected in the taste.

Wooden spoons were available for take away and there was so much food in this one Chimney that I was busy eating it for a long time. However, towards the end it got a little more complicated to reach the bottom parts. I guess that can be avoided by eating in the store were you've got "cupholders" and longer spoons. Plus, I didn't really fancy whatever they put as filling at the very bottom.

But whenever I visit Berlin on a hot day again, I might come back here and try some more Chimneys.

Pros: Fresh quality of the food, Large portions

Cons: Little difficult to eat as take away

Tasty chimney cake

Although the quality is more convenience style, the chimney cakes are very tasty and the many options are great if you go there with friends. If you like sweet vegan food, you can hardly leave it out when you are in Berlin.

Pros: Tasty cakes, Variety of options , Seating available

Extraordinary!

This is one of the best snacks ever! I had to wait a bit longer than the staff told me but it was definitely worth it and at least it’s super-fresh 😁 I had the Chimney Snikka, a must try for everyone that loves a chocolate and peanut combo

Pros: Amazing taste, Friendly staff

Quite fun

Lot of options.
The product quality is more industrial style but I still appreciated the experience (I took the classic one).

Sooo indulgent!

What a time we live in where something so rich and delicious can be 100% vegan. It's do hard to pick a flavour, that's why it's worth coming back a few times to find your favourite!

Dessert Heaven

You can find amazing Chimney cakes here! A lot of different flavours and styles. They also have some more traditional options (though even half of those are not really traditional) but they are all great. They even have Soft-Server Ice Cream!

Great food spot for a sweet treat ☺️ especially in the colder season when the cinnamon buns are available! The lotus bun is such a dream! Also the chimney cakes, filled with soft Icecream, are very delicious.

Fun to try once, not for repeats

The chimneys looked very promising on paper - er, screen - but they turned out quite mediocre.

The bread was the best part.
The ice cream was... odd. It wasn't really ice cream but more of a mix with soft ice and it came from a machine. It was cold and weird in texture and flavor.
The toppings were fun and I really liked that for once I could have the full ice cream experience (lots of ice cream places don't have vegan sauces or toppings) but the chocolate sprinkles were falling off and everything was way too sweet. The cookie on top had obviously been exposed to the air for a long time and was inedible.
Moreover, the chimney cake was a mess to eat. Stuff was falling off and the plate was too small to catch it, and ice cream was leaking from the hole in the bottom of the bread.

All in all, the experience was enough to satisfy my curiosity, but I'm sad to say it wasn't as wonderful as I had hoped and that I won't be buying a chimney cake again.

Pros: it's something different, there was a toilet

Cons: a mess to eat, not enough flavor

Freshly made chimmney cakes

Everything here is vegan, including cookies, cinnamon buns and chimmney cakes filled with ice cream.
We had the original and the oreo one.
It was kinda difficult to eat, but super sweet and delicious.
I recommend a visit here!

Good taste

Lots of choices about the cream but all is chimney. Which is cinnamon bun with cream. They have small ones sold in fours. My favourite was the tiramisu. Not many great dessert options in Berlin. This one worth a try.

Yum!

We shared a caramel popcorn chimney cake (more like a large sundae), it was delicious and was more then enough to hit the sweet spot.

There are lots of options, and the only reason I took off one star is because they had run out of Strawberry icecream.

Pros: Lots of options, Good value, Really tasty!

Brilliant cafe serving Chimneys

A great place that cooks completely vegan Chimneys, made freshly and cooked to order. You can either order one of their suggested flavour mix or make up your own. I had fresh mango and vanilla ice cream. The food was served quickly and the staff were very friendly. It really hit the spot on a hot afternoon in Berlin. Seating inside or out and a very clean toilet.

Pros: All vegan, The ice cream was delicious and a generous portion, The staff were friendly

Cons: Chimneys are quite big, 2 could easily share, Quite hard to eat politely, but who cares!

Originell

Wir kennen das Gebäck nur vom Weihnachtsmarkt. Ist insbesondere mit dem Eis als Füllung eine echt kreative Idee. Sieht total schön aus, ist jedoch auch echt süß (wir hatten das Snikkas). Wir haben es zu viert (2 Erwachsene, 2 kleine Kinder) geteilt und so war es für uns die ideale Portionsgröße.

Pros: Sieht toll aus

Delicious but expensive

Had the snickers chimney. It's a really tasty dessert, especially on the go. However it's also €7.50, which is pretty expensive.
