My waistline!

We visited Sammy’s on our last day in Berlin, which turned out to be a good move! The array of donuts is great, and it’s hard to stop at just one!

The place was packed when we went, with a lively, bustling vibe. I had a little anxiety about ordering, but honestly it was very easy.

My partner had the ‘deluxe’, Carrot Cake donut, which I am told was, “bougie”!🍩
As a Biscoff addict, I had to have the Biscoff donut, which had a super creamy filling.

It was all great, so definitely worth a visit.

Should have five stars!

This place is excellent, as others have commented I'm not sure why it's not marked as a vegan place and possible to give five stars because when I went there I asked and I was told everything they offer is vegan! (But maybe they just meant all the donuts are vegan? Not everything else?) It has a cute ambiance and they have so many great options, the donuts I tried were absolutely delicious. Salted caramel was my favorite! Bicoff Lotus a close second. The Bienenstich one tasted exactly like Bienenstich cake and the raspberry one reminded me of a Berliner/Kräppel, very tasty. I'd definitely go there again, as other comments have said I agree the donuts here are better than Brammibal's. Just the prices are a bit high but as expected from such unique vegan donuts.

Go there!!!

I don't know why it's not possible to give five stars?! All the baked goods were vegan, at least the day I was there. I had a donut with vanilla cream filling as well as a cinnamon roll. Both were excellent- the best donut I've had so far. When in Berlin, go there and forget about Brammibal's😉

Excellent doughnuts, almost all vegan!

Absolutely fantastic doughnuts with so many vegan options! There are more classics flavors, premium flavors, and more cake-like creations. The gentleman who helped me was so nice, too! I got two different doughnuts, but I ate the one before I got a picture of it. Both were outstanding.

Pros: The doughnuts!, The service

The best donuts I have ever had?! 🍩

The vegan options in this store are to die for?!🤩 The Lotus donut is amazing and only thinking about the filling makes my mouth water!🤤 We’re also big fan of the other vegan flavours! If we ever go back to Germany we would 100% stop here again. 🍩 The service was also amazing and the staff so sweet! ✨

Pros: Amazing flavours, Lovely fillings, Sweet service

Intense

So many vegan donut choices, which is amazing! I found them overwhelmingly sweet, certainly could not finish a whole one, so I'd recommend sharing one.

Pros: Lots of choice

Cons: They don't do vegan cakes

Berlinas típicas de muchos tipos

El sitio es muy cuqui y la mayor parte de las berlinas que venden son veganas, me daba miedo que estuvieran un poco secas, como suele ser la mayoría de la repostería vegana al final, pero para nada, como recién hecho. Las de Biscoff muy top. Todas las opciones veganas están marcadas con un puntito verde y también se pueden hacer veganas todas las bebidas y cafés. Merece la pena visitarlo para desayunar o la merienda.

Pros: Muchas opciones veganas, Sitio bonito

Amazing and cozy place for donuts and coffee

Very cute place, chill, groovy music. The donuts are incredible and more than half of them are vegan.
I myself had the raspberry and apple pie ones. Very sweet but matched perfectly with a chai latte (oat milk)

Good donuts 🍩

I had a crème brûlée filled donut and loved it. The salzed caramel donut was ok. Unfortunately, not everything is vegan.

Nur vegane Donuts

Aber in der Auslage waren sooo viele tolle Kuchen, die man leider nicht probieren kann.. Auch ist ca. 2h vor Ladenschluss die Auswahl auf nur noch ca. 3 Sorten Donuts beschränkt gewesen - also kommt lieber während der ersten Hälfte der Öffnungszeit!!

Die Donuts sind saftig und der Special Chocolate war mit Abstand der Kracher (von dem, was wir noch bekommen hatten..) Der Pancake Donut und der Pistacchio waren dagegen einfach nur Teig mit ein bisschen Glasur.
Der Creme Brulee ist sehr interessant gewesen... Würde man dazu noch leicht saure Früchte oder eine leicht säuerliche Fruchtsoße darüber geben, wäre der relativ milde Pudding noch besser ergänzt - wie beim klassischen Panna Cotta!

Das Personal war etwas langsam und eher nur englischsprachig, wodurch es kurz Verständigungsschwierigkeiten gab, aber dann bekamen wir alles wie gewünscht.

Außerdem war es ganz schön gut besucht, also plant genügend Zeit ein!

Top of Berlin's Vegan Donuts!

Among Brammibal's Donuts, the best Donuts in Berlin. They are special about their dough - Donuts are made out of "Pfannkuchen" - dough.
Makes them very special and tasty!
Wide variety for vegan Donuts. Vegan milk options also available.
A total recommendation for special Donuts.
Hand made!
Lovey staff

Pros: Many vegan options, Tasty Donuts out of Pfannkuchenteig

Best vegan donuts in Berlin

The vegan donuts here are really delicious! They have a nice selection of interesting flavors as well. Much tastier than the hyped Brammibal’s which I find dry and overly sweet. Sammys donuts have that wonderful chew that a good donut has!

Pretty good!

We happened by here and saw they had a couple different vegan options. I wasn't too impressed with the chick behind the counter as she was a bit rude when we had questions.

The donuts themselves were really yummy and you could tell the fillings were fresh, which is always a bonus!

I unfortunately didn't get any pictures!

Best vegan donuts!

When I went there the other day they had six vegan donut varieties and one or two cakes. I tried all of the donuts and one cake. The cake was pretty good, a cherry crumble cake. The donuts were all good but my favourites are the more plain ones, either with no filling or the classic Berliner with jam filling (either plum or strawberry).

In my opinion, a donut is only as good as the dough, and here I've finally found vegan ones that really satisfy me. Nice and puffy with a little bit of chew, a bit fatty like it should be. Compare that with the much-hyped Brammibal's, where the dough is too dry with no chew, (over)loaded with sugary toppings. It will be only Sammy's for me from now on!

Pros: Best vegan donuts in town

Cons: Not fully vegan

Lovely little bakery with a number of vegan options

Some vegan cakes and donuts. Located in a back street which makes it a nice quiet place to sit for a bit.

One of the best donuts I’ve ever had

Dropped in here after walking past and seeing labeled vegan donuts on display in the window, and I went for the cinnamon sugar donut. Unbelievably fresh tasting? It must’ve just come out, and the inside was a doughy, airy, but still light interior that was moist with a little bit of chew. Just that perfect somewhere between bread and cake consistency, full of flavor, and just amazing.

Get a donut here, it’s worth your €2.50, I promise.

Sweet and nice

Former bakery now specialized on cakes, donuts and German pastry "Berliner" which in Berlin are called "Pfannkuchen". A lot of them are vegan.
Very sweet and tasty. Price is quite fine. Staff is friendly. Our new tea time location :)

Pros: sweet, vegan, nice old store
