Clients reviews about Chimney Cake House

I visited this new spot and it’s a real gem! The selection of Middle Eastern sweets is amazing—fresh, rich in flavor, and beautifully presented. They also offer crepes and waffles. Everything tastes authentic and made with care. I tried the baklava and a few other pastries, and they were perfectly balanced, not overly sweet but full of flavor. The Turkish coffee was excellent—strong, smooth, and served just the way it should be. It paired perfectly with the desserts. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a great place to sit and enjoy a treat with friends or even just relax on your own. The staff are friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. This shop is a fantastic addition to the area, and I’ll definitely be back often! ~ Salim T

If you haven’t tried a Chimney Cake (Kürtőskalács) from this shop yet, you are seriously missing out on one of life’s greatest simple pleasures. From the moment you walk in, the smell of caramelizing sugar and fresh dough hits you—it’s impossible to walk past without stopping. Here’s why this place is a 10/10: Freshness: They bake these right in front of you. There’s nothing like pulling apart a warm, steaming ribbon of dough that’s crispy on the outside and pillowy-soft on the inside. The Texture: That crunch of the cinnamon-sugar glaze is perfection. It’s not overly sweet, just perfectly balanced. Creative Fillings: I tried mine filled with Nutella and fresh strawberries, but even the plain walnut one is incredible. Service: The staff is super friendly and clearly takes pride in the "spinning" process. It’s as much a show as it is a snack! ~ ахмад а

Amazing sweets, waffles and crepes. The chimeny cake was very delicious with the ice cream! If you're a coffee enthusiasts, We'd would recommend the Turkish coffee with a side of any of their delectable sweets. We are definitely coming back to try the other sweets they have. The employees were very nice, welcoming and very helpful! they did an amazing job at making our drinks and the Chimney Cake. Seating was good but limited if there is over 10+ people. the tables and shop was very clean and tidy. Would highly recommend coming here. ~ TinaEh V

Hole in the way place tucked away on Central Avenue. Loved all the desserts here - definitely a great place if you want to satisfy your sweet tooth! I tried several items here - Pistachio Chimney Cake, lotus biscoff kanafeh, pistachio crepe, and waffle with fruit and chocolate sauce. We also had a small baklava bite and Turkish coffee. All the desserts were so delicious, creamy, and sweet ! The ice cream in the Chimney Cake had great flavor too. My favorite items were the chimney cake,.crepe, and baklava. The Turkish coffee was very strong for my taste but I'm usually not a fan of black coffee overall. I think next time I'll have to try the iced lattes. Service was good - the staff member gave some suggestions and gave me a heads up of how long some items would take. I liked that we got a warning since the crepe took about 20 mins but it was sooo worth the wait. The napkins are small and utensils are kind of flimsy so they are hard to use to cut more dense items like the waffle or chimney cake, but they worked to cut the crepe. I would bring some Wet Ones / larger napkins since there isn't a sink available for customer use and eating the desserts can get a bit messy. ~ Mariam R

This is my second time coming here and it’s honestly so good. Everything I tried was amazing and you can tell it’s fresh. The chimney cake with ice cream was so good and the pistachio topping made it even better. The place is clean, the staff were nice, and the whole experience was great. Definitely coming back again! ~ Rawwan M
