Cigköftem

Decent take-away food. Tastes OK and not super cheap tbh.

Food fairly okay, service little sad

They could make a training for their service and make them tho much better, was a little rude and English speaking lacked a little (but was okay).

I enjoyed fairly this big wrap they served, but as it is cold I was not that into - salad was fresh and nice inside, but sauces can be much better by taste. And it was in complete mediocre.

Thanks for this experience - I became a better man.

Well-tried formula that never disappoints

Never at a loss for Cigköftem. It’s genuine tasty and solid food.
My personal favorite is the cigköfte (the gherkin inside is both a must and the best ingredient full stop) rather than the köfte.
It has increased in price, but it’s still fairly inexpensive compared to similar food elsewhere.
This branch in particular has a hard time, because there’s some sort of construction going on in front for years now.
Reliable source of affordable fast food nonetheless.

Good option for takeaway

I've heard about this place a few times and so I just had to try it. It was very tasty and the vegan options are clearly marked.

It was not the absolute top class but overall tasty. The service was very friendly.

Cheap and practical but not tasty

Very convenient place, very cheap and very filling but the food is honestly pretty dry and not so fresh. It’s not that bad though and i might go back if i have no other option.

Simple vegan fast food

This branch of CigköfteM in Berlin-Neukölln is located very close to the subway station and easily found.

Their menu includes more than Cigköfte now, e.g. falafel and dessert, but not everything is vegan.

I think the price for a simple wrap (basic Cigköfte wrap 4€; falafel more expensive) is quite high compared to the food's quality and the service here. There are better options in the vicinity.

Pros: location is easy to find

Cons: Expensive compared to service, Random opening hours

Nothing better than fresh cigköfte

Had my first cigköfte in Berlin here, after I tried them in Istanbul. They taste so good, very unique flavour and composition. Watch out, they can be very spicy, but the nice staff will prepare it mild for you.

Pros: Comfort food

War mal besser und ist iwie teuer

Ich mag çiğköftem-çiğköfte eigentlich immer aber bei dieser Filiale... zum einen ist es noch teurer geworden und son Dürüm ist nun wirklich nicht riesig. Zum anderen ist es immer ein bisschen fad hier. Zu viel Eisbergsalat, zu wenig Soße und ich würde sogar behaupten das scharfe çiğköfte hat hier weniger Geschmack als z.B. am Kotti.

Cold soggy microwaved falafel

Cigköfte taste well. Used to be better though. Not using grenadine sirup anymore, also no more spring onions as they usee to give with the menu. And the falafel are maybe the worst you can find in this area.they heat it up in the micorwave... Used to be one of my favorite spots 3 years ago. Now just a bad copy of itself.

Pros: Vegan cigköfte is good

Cons: Falafel the worst I maybe ever had

Only one thing and it is not a good one

I have been twice here. I didn't like the first time at all, but decided to give it a second chance.

I am never coming back. They only have this red cold goo that doesn't taste good at all! They put that in burgers or in a wrap or in a box.

At least I hope it is healthy, but I am not even sure of that!

I just passed in front of Dandy Dinner, a full vegan burger place. Same street, going towards Hermannplatz. I regret not spending my €3,50 there on their classic cheeseburger.

Pros: Kind service, Not too expensive

Cons: Doesn't taste good, Expensive for what it is, Only one thing

Leckeres Fastfood

Frisches, minimalistisches türkisches Fastfood ohne Schnickschnack. Toll im Sommer bei Hitze. Die Cogköfte werden kalt serviert. Auch prima zum mitnehmen für's Picknick.

Pros: keine langem wartezeiten, frisch, gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

Turkish spicy delight

We ordered cig kofte to take away and the kofte (freshly assembled in front of us) came accompanied by half lettuce head (to roll the kofte and other ingredients in individual lettuce leafs), parsley, mint and half lemon for extra taste, and a bag of Turkish flat-bread.

An amazing meal at any time of the day: fresh and spicy, fun to eat and 100% vegetable :)
