This place is a MUST! - Edit
This place makes the best cinnamon rolls I have ever had. I know that sounds really dramatic, but they really are that good. Not only because they are hot and fresh, but because they make them to order, according to your tastes, so they will ALWAYS be the best. Choose your toppings, choose your icing, choose the size, and BAM! A hot tasty cinnamon roll exactly how you like it.

Absolutely delicious. A must visit! - Edit
Cinnaholic is absolutely sinful in how delicious it is. The buns are well baked and fluffy, the toppings plentiful, and the service friendly.

The only real issue is picking out your toppings! Too many choices!!
Pros: friendly, delicious, delicious

Heaven!! - Edit
After MONTHS of drooling over their instagram photos I finally got to try the cinnamon rolls for myself! I got four: two blackberry and two cookie dough. They. Were. Divine. Words cannot describe my love of these. Although I am sad this place is hundreds of miles away from me, I am secretly happy because I know I would be fat if I lived nearby!

So many choices! - Edit
Cinnaholic is stressful for a vegan from a smaller city - so many options! The waitress recommended the lemon raspberry, so I got one for breakfast the next day - soft, sweet, sticky and perfectly delicious. I also ordered the soft serve with cookie dough, brownie chunks and fresh berries - amazing. I wish I went to Berekely so I could make my way through their flavour combinations!

Rad baketivism in action! - Edit
Even though cinnamon rolls are actually shockingly easy to make yourself at home, it's pretty much guaranteed that if you make them, you'll eat tons of them and not be able to stop, so it's really better to just go buy just one from Cinnaholic. Trust me, I've learned this the hard way. Plus, toppings! All kinds of toppings at this place.
Read moreWhat's really so awesome about Cinnaholic is that it's popular with the omnis. This place doesn't exactly advertise its veganness, and that has clearly paid off for them. If it were up to me, every place would be like this: all vegan, but just treating it like that's the obvious, normal way to be. Places like Cinnaholic are doing some "baketivism" by proving, once again, that vegan baking is better. I remember before I started to cook veg, I thought that I could "never go vegan" because I wanted to eat delicious cookies and stuff. And then I got some cookbooks and began to experiment and, turns out, vegan baking is easier, cheaper, more delicious, and cruelty free. Win win win win. Every time you show an omni that vegan cooking and baking is better, a hen gets her beak back. Ok, sorry, that was dark.
These babies are made with love. You're bound to wait a bit because they're made to order, but just be prepared for this and you'll be fine. Also, they do French press coffee correctly here! That's important. I get really angry and start gnashing my teeth and yanking at my hair when I buy coffee and it's bad. So upset become I that I'll often warn the kid making it ahead of time: "You better stir that after a minute, punk!" But they do it right here. So no worries.
Pros: omnis love it, good coffee, prevents overeating from baking @ home
Cons: not many seats, overwhelmed by great choices, no, really, which should I get?

**WOW** - Edit
You absolutely MUST try cinnaholic. I can't even begin to describe how delicious their rolls are.
Read moreI got the peanut butter and jelly roll with Macadamia nut Frosting, and NutterButters as a topping.
I immediately wished I had another dozen or so to take home.
Next time we head to Berkeley for a weekend adventure, I will make certain to bring a few home with me to enjoy later.
Staff is extremely friendly, and very cool as well!!
We love you Cinnaholic!!
(BTW - All cinna rolls are made hot and fresh for you, and frosted and topped right in front of you. So you can trust that nobody is doing something gross behind closed doors with your food!)
Pros: Taste omg the yummy taste., They're light, not overly heavy , Cool staff, very nice group!
Cons: none, None, None

Worth the trip! - Edit
I was visiting SF from Boston and heard about Cinnaholic from VegNews. I made the trip to Berkley just the try the buns, and I don't regret it! They were yummy and there are lots of options. The girls working were AMAZING, super helpful in picking out some good combos and also finding a place for dinner. Go!

Way too sugary - Edit
While in Berkley, my husband decided to stop here because it was listed as one of the bucket list items on the VegNews bucket list. We both got one of their pre-designed rolls, and at the cashier's suggestion I got the cookie dough roll. Unfortunately, neither my husband and I were that impressed. The rolls were sickeningly sweet and the toppings didn't help. I couldn't even finish mine, which is pretty out of character for a sugar-loving chocolate-hoarding creep like me. I think it was just a combination of the sweet white flour roll, the frosting that was so sugary it was kind of crunchy, and then the dessert within a dessert toppings. I'm thinking maybe a custom-designed roll would be better with some fruit or something? But, if all their rolls have the same dough and frosting base I'm not sure I'd be a fan...

yummy goodness! - Edit
While visting the Bay Area for the weekend, we headed straight to Cinnaholic after leaving the airport as we really wanted to try them. We were not disappointed! Wow! The front display case shows the day's specialty rolls. We got the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Oreo Explosion ones. OMG! So yummy! But eating one all by yourself is a bit of a sugar overdose, but so worth it. We also took two "Old School" rolls to go to have the next morning. They reheated quite nicely. The store itself is a bit small with one table outside and another one inside, but the rolls are served in a to-go container anyways, so no problems. I highly recommend checking them out!

WOW - Edit
For someone who loves cinnamon rolls, this is the place to visit!! So many different varieties to chose from. I wanted to try someone different then the regular, so had the oreo explosion, which was tasty but a bit rich on the sweetness even for me. Rolls are large enough to share or enjoy on own!!! A++

WOW! I am now a Cinnaholic! - Edit
Cinnaholic, located in Berkeley, CA, is a cute shop with some amazing cinnamon buns. They've only been open for two months and they already have a large amount of customers/regulars. I can see why, because this is one of the best vegan treats I've ever had. I was never a huge fan of cinnamon buns when I used to eat dairy, but my goodness, these are to die for. My travel friend, not a vegan, was floored and said she couldn't tell they were vegan and went on to say they were the best she had. So as far as flavors, there are probably 30, so naturally that made it hard to choose what to get! I got three in total (one for there and two for the rest of the week) and all of them were really good (almond, strawberry, maple syrup). If you're visiting the SF area, I highly recommend taking a small trip up here. You can drive or alternatively you can take the BART, which drops you off a block or two from the shop.

CinnaMAZING!! - Edit
An omnivore friend recommended Cinnaholic. I'm not a fan of cinnamon buns, but after checking out their website and seeing all the flavors they offered, I couldn't resist. I got enough for the whole family (an excuse for me to try several flavors). We got Butter Pecan, Caramel, Cream Soda, Strawberry, Coffee, & Root Beer. The caramel & cream soda were AWESOME!! It was like $4.50 per cinnamon bun, but they were huge! There were some fantastic creations that I hope to try on my next trip to the Bay area. Everything is vegan too! It's a small little cafe right across from UC Berkley. The staff was very nice & polite. I hope this new place gets lots of attention & love.
