Top notch - Edit
Hard to resist! I love that this place is all vegan, which I did not expect it to be when I first happened upon it. The cinnamon roll is always 10/10

All vegan!!! - Edit
Literally everything in the shop is vegan. These are some quality cinnamon rolls as well with endless options to customize with glazes and toppings. My omni friend that lives here in Berkeley had no idea that it was vegan and had eaten there plenty before! They also have vegan milkshakes, although I didn’t get it. I took home a cinnamon roll and they put my toppings in little containers so it was easy to reheat😄very delicious for a treat! Too sweet for me to eat on the regular though and a bit pricy for sure.

The store needs to be cleaned up - Edit
I love Cinnaholic and this location used to be so much better. When I recently went, it was pretty messy inside. The display cases were just crammed with cardboard and the store had a dingy quality about it.

The roll I got was good, the service a bit slow.

Delicious!! Soooo fckn tasty!! I came a couple times eating this💦. Mmmm 😋.
Read moreStrawberry cheesecake roll was perfect!! Balance of flavors. Didn't taste like cheesecake! Topped w a nice granola.
My order next time would be the strawberry roll w extra strawberries or even add an extra unfrosted roll w/ 2x strawberries. As it had plenty enough frosting for 2. I love freshness in every bite!!

Very rich - Edit
So many options to choose from and every one I've had has been delicious. They don't skimp on the toppings, which is great, and are served warm. One roll can easily be shared between two people because they are very sweet and rich.

Best cinnamon rolls. Period. - Edit
The first few times I went here before I was vegan I had no idea, genuinely thought I was eating regular cinnamon rolls. Their cookies are super good too!

love!! - Edit
finally returned to this location after years to try their seasonal rolls. I liked the pumpkin spice more than the fluffernutter because it had a good amount of spice and wasn’t quite as sweet! both tasted far less sweet as reheated leftovers too so I definitely recommend saving them for later!

Great cinnamon rolls - Edit
We live out of the area but we always buy a dozen old skool rolls with frosting non the side and bring them home to freeze them. They are a great treat! They have so many amazing flavor combos. You will never know their cinnamon rolls are vegan. My Omni husband loves them!

Satisfied my sweet tooth - Edit
This is the first cinnamon roll I've had since going vegan 8 years ago and I was pleasantly surprised. Cinnaholic is great and I love how customizable their menu is. The cherry topping is a bit too sweet so in the future I'd give special instructions to have less of it, but overall I'm really happy with everything I tried. They also sell soymilk, boxed water, and canned water. Staff was very friendly and quick

Good - Edit
Stopped here with high expectations. It was good! Nothing groundbreaking. I wish the cinnamon aspect of the old school roll was more prevalent. Great treat regardless. The brownie was amazing!

many possibilities, some of which are good - Edit
The cinnamon rolls are generally warm and fluffy and the variety of combinations is astounding. The brownies are good too. On the other hand, sometimes the rolls seem a bit large, excessively sweet, and gooey. I also once tried a pizza roll here that was basically a hunk of bread with a dab of red sauce on top. The coffee part of the menu is very limited and the outdoor seating is cramped, however they do have some other beverages (including milkshakes) and are close to a giant lawn.

Yum! - Edit
Ordered the classic “Old School” and it’s better than the pictures looked! Roll was warm, fresh out of the oven, fluffy, and covered in sweet buttery goodness All vegan. Worth the calories. Treat yo’ self.

Best Cinnamon Rolls - Edit
Right now they are only doing online orders from their website for pick up or delivery services like DoorDash. I visited this place once 10 years ago and then again yesterday. Was blown away both times but this time I think I enjoyed it a lot more because we planned what we were going to order ahead of time. You can choose from their many frosting and topping choices. The possibilities are endless!! We studied their menu and ordered what we thought would be the best combo. 1 cinnamon bun with cream cheese frosting, raspberries and graham cookies and 1 cinnamon bun with raspberry frosting, blueberries and pie crumbs. They were out of some of the toppings I had seen on their online menu, maybe their toppings are seasonal or something. It was sooo delicious, we loved every bite of both! The cream cheese frosting with raspberries was probably my favourite. Definitely visit in you're in Berkeley and it's a worth a trip if you're not!

Cinnamon roll heaven!! - Edit
The first time I stopped into Cinnaholic about three years ago, I had no idea it was an all vegan shop. I wasn't even vegan at the time, but I fell in love with this place! Fast forward, I've been vegan for almost two years and I still love it. The concept of a build-your-own cinnamon roll is genius!! If you're in the area, you have to stop here.

Very incompetent management and ownership - Edit
Heather really needs to work on the way in which she engages customers. Came in tonight and she stated they don't take card or cash... Oook? I'd just called to see if they were open, it would have been nice to been informed of their ridiculous payment restrictions beforehand.

Amazing - Edit
Cinnaholic is decadent but totally worth it and now a must visit for me while in the bay area. My husband is not really even a cinnamon roll fan, but with all the toppings and options he ended up loving it. I had a roll with peanut butter frosting, a scoop of cookie dough, and chocolate chips. I had just eaten a huge meal and was not going to be back in the Berkeley area, so I got it to go for the next morning. Perhaps it would have been better right away, but it was absolutely fine in the morning, after warming for a few seconds.

Cinnamon roll galore! - Edit
Let me just say...wow! There are so many options and being a first timer, I was super overwhelmed but the staff was very kind and told me that if I had any questions to just ask. I ended up ordering an old fashioned roll (vanilla frosting) with oreo bits and chocolate syrup on top. I’m not sure if it’s always this way, but I noticed that the woman who was putting my roll together made my chocolate syrup FRESH with Hershey’s cocoa. Pretty amazing. Waited about five minutes and my beautiful roll came out. Although it was delicious, I do have to agree with many other reviews with the point that it is almost sickly sweet but it was 3:30pm and I hadn’t had lunch yet so I didn’t really care. Maybe try asking for less frosting than normal since that seemed to be the main sweet culprit. Also, there is no advertising whatsoever that mentions that they are vegan besides a poster for animal liberation on the window so I assume that it has tricked many students and Cinnaholic fans alike. Great rolls, can’t wait to come back whenever I’m in Cali next.
