Bollenpiepe Restaurant in Berlin

A charming blend of a traditional swan colony and modernity. The service was attentive and friendly, and the food looked and tasted great.

I had read about Bollenpiepe in my phone's news feed, and on my way back to Berlin from northern Brandenburg, I checked my saved places and spontaneously drove there. And hallelujah, it was worth it! Such an unassuming place with fantastic cuisine! The textures, flavors, and first-class service made the visit a true experience. I'll definitely be back!

The food was delicious, from vegan garlic bread and summer rolls to various main courses that can also be combined with meat and fish, and even vegan desserts. The Swedish cup was amazing. Plus, the service was prompt and attentive. A successful afternoon.

Very nice restaurant, excellent food, clean restrooms, beautiful interior, and the terrace will surely be spruced up for next summer. Value for money is right.

Four of us went there last night, and from the start, it was a great evening. Excellent, friendly, competent service, the food was regional, fresh, and more than plentiful. Excellent value for money. We'll definitely be back! It's worth the trip!

Great service staff with a Berlin accent. The food is a 10 out of 10. We'll be back.

The food is a discovery. Fresh, creative, and colorful. Decorated with very special herbs. It's either vegan, or, if you prefer, with fish or meat as an add-on. The place is very special—on the edge of an allotment garden, a little removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, but still has something special; but the walk there is definitely worth it. An absolute recommendation!

The location is simple—a nostalgic garden arbor atmosphere. That's not why you go there, though; you go for the warm, attentive service and the surprising, truly remarkable craftsmanship in the kitchen—fantastic!

Among the 5-star reviewers, there are many who have only given a few reviews, or even just one... 🤔🤔 Hmm. I wonder if there were any favorable reviews among them? How anyone could give this place 5 stars is beyond me. Ugly furniture inside and out, just to my taste. But the food seems to be good. The rest could be improved.

Superb creations. Imaginative and delicious. You can actually become a vegetarian here... But the meat portion is also deliciously prepared. Very high-quality cuisine, very attentive service, and a unique ambiance. You can tell the team enjoys working there, and it made our stay a pleasure for us as guests too. We'll definitely be back! Thank you very much.

Very unfriendly, almost arrogant management!!! Simply abysmal...!

Although I'm not a committed vegetarian, my experience at this restaurant totally surprised me. Very tasty, beautifully presented, and with very friendly service. More of this!

Very delicious, innovative cuisine, everything super fresh and seasonal. Plus, the service was really friendly. We'll definitely be back!

Large vegan selection of starters, main courses, and desserts (almost all ice cream flavors are vegan). The garlic bread was a 10/10. Highly recommended!

Delicious vegetarian cuisine with the option of meat or fish. In keeping with the motto of the garden colony where it is located, dishes are lovingly prepared with plenty of (wild) herbs and served with Berlin heart and soul.

The service was warm and professional; we immediately felt welcome as guests. The food tastes sensational and is also beautifully presented. It's especially suitable for vegetarians and vegans. For omnivores, there's also meat and fish. We also liked the mix of guests—everything is there! You've created a beautiful place that offers a welcome change from the "same old thing" in the trendy neighborhoods. You're doing a great job!

It was an amazing experience! Food and service were on top. I loved the erbsenrisotto especially! The people working here were also super friendly. Definitely a must if you want to discover something else than those typical hipster Berlin restaurant. You can taste the love in the food, it's seasonal products and even super pretty to just look at haha! Well done to the team!

After a wild herb walk in the Botanical Volkspark next door, we had dinner here with the family. The theme was a perfect fit and was a complete success (also) at the Bollenpiepe. Full marks! Clubhouse reloaded; a great place!

There were four of us there and we immediately felt at home. The service and all the dishes were simply pure passion. We'll definitely be back because of the wonderful atmosphere.

Beautiful hidden place among the garden colony, the food it outstanding and absolutely worth the trip. Phenomenal vegan options as well as meats. Will definitely be returning.

Great food! Friendly service. My favorite was the "Rübchen" starter, made with golden sunflower seeds; it was absolutely amazing. The pea risotto was delicious (for me, the saltiness was a bit too high, a matter of taste), and beautifully presented. Rhubarb ice cream was excellent, better than the rhubarb pudding for me. The service was simply friendly and full of Berlin charm. We'll be back. Always make a reservation, folks!

A wonderful place to escape the everyday city life with great, fresh food!

Fantastic food and excellent service in a relaxed atmosphere: an absolute recommendation!

According to the owner, the restaurant has been very busy for the past week, so you can only get a seat with a reservation. It's best to call ahead, as there's no information on the website. Unfortunately, we didn't get to eat anything, but we could have at least had a drink.

Probably the best restaurant in Pankow by far. Wonderfully seasonal, fresh, and very well-crafted. It's best to call ahead to make sure you get it right. We'll be back.

We were absolutely thrilled! Super friendly service and delicious food at fair prices. We'll definitely be back!

We were cycling from Gesundbrunnen and headed for the Bollenpiepe restaurant. Absolutely delicious vegetarian dishes. A great combination of fresh herbs and regional vegetables. A true taste sensation. Hidden away, the kitchen more than exceeds our expectations. The service is prompt and prompt. We'll be back. The dessert was also delicious.

The coolest shit ever, you'll definitely see us again! Tonka ice cream takes my partner into her dreams! Thank you so much.

I haven't experienced such great, friendly, attentive, relaxed, and courteous service in a long time! 👏🏽🥳 That alone makes a visit worthwhile! But the food (in this case, garlic bread & beetroot salad) is also excellent! Very fresh and prepared with lots of love! 🥰💝 You'll definitely be a repeat customer here!!! 😁😇💯

A hidden gem on the outskirts of Pankow. With a lovely terrace. You can even park your car right there. The menu features vegetarian delicacies. If you want meat, you'll have to order it separately (at a rather hefty surcharge). Better off sticking with plant-based fare. A glass of fine Pinot Gris is a fair €5.50 for 0.2 l. Reservations are easy (via email) - the phone isn't working right now. Payment by card is OK, but please have cash on hand for the tip for the friendly service crew.

The Bollenpiepe is simply fantastic. Anyone who knows exactly what idealism means in the culinary arts will find what they like at the Bollenpiepe. All vegan, with the option of a perfect meat dish. If you like to treat yourself and value craftsmanship and product quality, you should visit this restaurant. Don't be put off by the somewhat complicated opening hours! The breaks are only for service breaks and are for the staff to take their time. You can stay seated and enjoy the weather or use the restroom. I find the concept modern and employee-friendly. The service staff and kitchen are ahead of their time. ☺️🍺☺️

Absolute insider tip for me. It's really a bit away but the journey is worth it. Because the food is clear proof that you don't always need a lot of chic, but simply fresh, good quality ingredients simply prepared to perfection. The menu is clear but sufficient and, although initially exclusively vegetarian, offers additional meat options if desired. The dishes don't need meat to be really good. The focaccia with garlic cream is particularly special. The location in an allotment garden area slows down the visit. The staff is attentive and friendly. The ambience is kept simple.

Simply a blast!!! The food is a dream, the service unbeatable. We were there twice on New Year's Eve...absolutely recommended!!!

Very tasty food, lots of herbs, vegan and just great! Thanks

Finally a restaurant with typical Berlin charm. The ambience is just as rustic as the service. The food is excellent, innovative, tasty and with many different fresh ingredients a real treat for the palate. The concept of offering a vegetarian dish as a base and offering the meat/fish as an additional option is contemporary and brilliant! The children's plate is prepared just as lovingly as the "big ones" plates. Our 2-year-old ate the potato pancakes with vegetables with great appetite. We'll definitely be back.

Yes, I can highly recommend. We had a milestone birthday there. There is nothing to complain about

We discovered this restaurant through an Instagram post and were immediately impressed. We got a place at very short notice and tried out the Easter menu there. Everything tasted wonderful. The service was extremely friendly and very competent. The location is also super cozy. The prices here are also really good for the great quality! We will definitely come back.

I am a wheelchair user and when it came to choosing a place, they were immediately very helpful and not fake friendly, thank you for that! We love good cuisine! The Bollenpiepe is the highlight of the last two years 6 stars!! All of the dishes on the Easter menu were prepared to perfection! The bill was commensurate with the high quality of the menu, the service and the tasteful ambience! A walk through the allotment gardens rounded off the visit

As always, super delicious food and very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Wonderful place - delicious food and delightful service!

Since we had reserved seats with a group two weeks before Easter, we were initially told that eating ala carte would probably not be possible. But we were pleasantly surprised because the menu cards offered a large selection! Starters, main courses and desserts. In addition, there is even a multi-course Easter menu. The large plates were not arranged to be particularly pleasing to the eye but were well filled. (That means rich and chic.) Without exception, everyone enjoyed it excellently. And since only a few had an appetizer, almost everyone was able to finish. (The quality was also good!) Last but not least, the service should be mentioned. Although the two gentlemen had written everything down, they still had all the orders in mind and could therefore - without asking - give everyone their own. Hey, what more could you want? Parking spaces in front of the door? Yes, there are! Because in the garden colony there is obviously no big city traffic, as is otherwise usual here. Finally, I would like to leave open whether the restaurant is accessible to disabled people. (If I remember correctly, everything is at ground level with no steps.) Finally, a quick word about the ambience. Although pictures and contemporary art decorate the rooms, subjectively I'm missing a little more colorful color to go with the nice, rustic color scheme.

What a successful start to the weekend. We were there on a Friday evening and completely satisfied. The food - simply sensational! A visual and taste highlight.

An absolute insider tip… small map, but impressive. Great team, fun.

Extremely delicious food with unusual combinations of ingredients and beautifully presented.

Two visits and always 5⭐️ Food, service, everything was great. I had my birthday dinner there with the family (13 people) and everyone was really excited. We keep coming back…

You wouldn't expect something like this here: a great location with "allotment garden charm", but top cuisine at great prices. Harmonious vegetarian dishes with the option of ordering delicious meat or fish. But that's not really necessary, the dishes are well made and many of the ingredients come from the region or even the garden behind the restaurant. Pair it with a delicious “Berliner Berg” or a good glass of wine – it’s a good fit! The great team also fits the location! Hopefully this will stay with us for a long time - so far it's perfect!

Everything tastes great and delicious

It tastes wonderful and is prepared with great care! Always happy.

You don't expect extremely good, high-quality cuisine with a lot of elements in this environment. Large variety of vegan and vegetarian dishes, which can be supplemented with fish or meat of your choice. I could have liked it a little spicier, but of course you can't please everyone on this point :) incredibly fair prices, even for the drinks!!

Today again in the Bollenpiepe - and once again very tasty and lovingly prepared. Plus the sun on the terrace and attentive service. Perfect, thank you very much and see you soon!

Followed a tip and were really pleasantly surprised. Absolute recommendation, culinary and emotional. Thank you for the beautiful moment Andy&Anne

The food has absolutely its own character. Something really different and extremely tasty and very imaginatively arranged. Overall, we don't give it five but four stars. Here is the explanation: We have praised your store highly from all of our friends. When one of them just wanted to have a quick bite to eat with his 90-year-old mother a few days ago, you unfortunately didn't serve them, on the grounds that all the tables that were still free - and there were a lot of them - were supposedly reserved. That might be true, but let's be honest, you can't fool anyone into believing that all your reservations were posted at exactly the same time that evening, right ;-)? I mean to say: Where there is a will, there is always a way. Especially when an ancient mother just needs a little corner to munch on something tasty. Addendum February 2025: You are generously forgiven for this little thing with the little mother. You really do a fantastically good job. In the meantime, the old lady was able to enjoy your hospitality and she was also thrilled. With this in mind, continued success and see you soon👍

After a long time we made it to the Bollenpipit for the first time today and it won't be the last time! Why did we wait so long? We definitely missed something! In short: the reception was warm, informal and Stefan and Marcus made it something very special with their style right from the start! Keep it up! You are fantastic! Great service! We have rarely received such good advice! And the food was excellent too! We were able to enjoy three courses. Everyone completely convinced us and the eye was also rewarded. Clear recommendation! Go and enjoy this perfect overall concept!

Great food, nice service, cozy fireplace, and also great for children :)

Ooh, such a delightful taste of everything never felt. Divine aromas and combinations of tastes, textures and colours... Yyaahmm. What can anyone wish more? What is not to love? The cook is a wizard in a magic and fairy tale like world...

Great food, created with a lot of skill and served with a lot of love. You're not allowed to praise people like that, you won't get any more seats afterwards

Never eaten such good white cabbage: Gentle, intense, slightly spicy. A really good meal from Marcus Kümmel, who goes by each table at the end of the evening and asks for feedback. Top

Incredibly delicious food... Great cook and super friendly welcome and service...It was our first time there and we were blown away by the deliciousness.... As guests you now have us on your hands....We are already looking forward to the next visit...

We were really excited about our visit to Bollenpiepe yesterday. The food was not only delicious, but also beautifully presented. The two friendly and funny waiters made the evening even more fun. This restaurant is perfect for a nice evening with friends or family.

Sensational food, prepared with a lot of love, very friendly service (and very Berlin 😉). We'll be back!!!

A slightly different restaurant in Berlin. The cuisine is very good and you can combine main courses with side dishes of your taste. Additionally, there are still a few offers on the board.

Was very surprised by the recommendation, finally something really good and rare, highly recommended. Definitely coming back, thank you

Super delicious food, great and very friendly service. Absolute recommendation! We'll definitely be back

Went here today with my husband for the first time and on the recommendation of friends. The only critical question: why for the first time???? Small card - big cinema, service at its best! We felt welcome from the telephone reservation until we said goodbye. Thank you and see you soon!!!!!

The Bollenpiepe restaurant in Berlin is a true culinary gem that delights both vegans and meat lovers. Under the direction of Marcus Kümmel, the former head chef at the renowned vegan restaurant Kopps, the kitchen here conjures up real culinary delights. The menu offers a successful mix of creative vegan dishes and selected meat and fish options. Each dish is a small work of art, lovingly prepared and refined with a variety of fresh herbs and spices. The plant-based creations are particularly impressive and can convince even die-hard meat eaters. The ambience of the restaurant is just as charming as the cuisine. Located in the idyllic Einigkeit arcade colony in Rosenthal, the Bollenpiepe exudes a cozy and relaxed atmosphere. The interior is tastefully and invitingly designed, making the visit an entirely pleasant experience. A special highlight is the location at Kräuterplatz, which fits perfectly with the philosophy of the restaurant. The proximity to the Pankow Botanical People's Park makes the Bollenpiepe an ideal destination for a trip where you can wonderfully combine nature and enjoyment. The friendly and attentive staff complete the positive overall picture. They always try to fulfill every wish of the guests and contribute significantly to the pleasant atmosphere. Overall, Bollenpiepe is an absolute insider tip for anyone who wants to enjoy high-quality, creative cuisine in a charming ambience. Whether vegan or not - every gourmet will find something to their taste here. It's definitely worth a visit and will leave you wanting to come back soon.

A gem in one of the largest allotment garden colonies in terms of area. The menu is varied, regional and seasonal. You can combine various vegetable creations with meat offerings as you like, a very good idea.

A lot of emphasis is placed on the quality of the food and even more classic dishes have that certain something. Everything was homemade with love. Top service, very helpful and warm and also fond of children. We were thrilled and would love to come back! Thank you! 🫶

Hopefully this doesn't get around too much...

It was an excellent goose meal today 👍🏼 A big compliment and thanks to the kitchen and the nice service staff. 👌🎄🍀

A fine restaurant where the attention to detail in the food and service is noticeable.

Discovered it six months ago and I would now describe us as regular customers. :) The food is always freshly prepared and tastes incredibly delicious every time and the guys themselves are unbeatable and super friendly. Keep it up! ♥️

Great experience. Delicious food.

We have lived in the complex for many years and have seen many restaurants come and go...But there has never been such great cuisine and such nice staff here! Marcus and his team bring so much love and variety. The menu is small but nice, because there is a lot of emphasis on quality rather than quantity! Depending on the season, the dishes change from time to time. And we are super happy that we can give away our home-grown organic vegetables here. It couldn't be more regional! The staff is incredibly relaxed and funny! We look forward to many more years with you!

It was really good, can't complain.

Something different in a positive sense. The food is lovingly prepared and delicious. I hope the good concept works at this cozy location. I keep my fingers crossed for the team and will be happy to come back often.

We had a very good experience in this restaurant. The menu is seasonal, original and the food was delicious. A little gem in the north of Berlin.

We stopped by the Bollenpiepe for the first time today on the recommendation of friends. Our high expectations were fully met. The service is exceptionally family-friendly. As for the starters, the focaccia in particular was stunning. We were also impressed by the main courses of braised cucumber and chanterelles. Thank you for the fine enjoyment. Now we have to wait patiently for your well-deserved summer break before we will definitely come back to visit you again.

Delicious food and delicious beer!!! You can enjoy wines and also Prosecco;0) Staff to love! Toilets are always clean! If you don't feel comfortable there, it's your own fault! I forgot something very important! Mega dogs love.......

I ended up in this location by chance. There was a jazz evening that day, which was very nice. It's a clubhouse. A lot of effort was put into the food, which was served as a buffet, and was delicious. There was something for everyone and you could tell how much love everything was cooked with. The music was great, unfortunately the background noise of the people detracted from the enjoyment of the music, but it wasn't a concert. We would be happy to come back, even if the route is long and difficult to reach by public transport.

Modern, but still traditional dishes! Super cool staff and regional cuisine with Asian fusion!!!! You are great!

The food was incredibly delicious. We ate soup, main course and dessert and everything was a taste experience. A real gem that I can warmly recommend

An absolute insider tip with very tasty food that is beautifully prepared. The staff is very friendly and funny. We're always happy to come back! Stay the way you are and good luck 😇🫶

Service is loving, food is a dream

Simply delicious. Beautifully prepared, seasonal, large vegan selection, always fresh, extremely tasty herbs. Ice cream and dessert are also mostly plant-based. Extremely friendly, attentive service, yet a relaxed atmosphere. The boss always goes around in the evening and asks everyone how they liked it. Very personable. The prices are really reasonable in relation to the quality and are now almost cheap by Berlin standards. It's not without reason that the garlic bread is a perennial favorite, and yesterday we were particularly impressed by the braised cucumber. There are also seasonal drink specials on the board, try the homemade lemonade! Not easy to reach by public transport, but the parking situation is very good. I can only recommend Bollenpiepe and will always come back!

Awesome experience. A short seasonal menu that prove the freshness of the products, the quality of preparation and the high attention to the presentation. A true delight. We will come back at another season to see their offering. Bravo to the Chef and merci to the awesome waiters !

Awesome shop! Good concept! Something for everyone. Cozy and quiet!

Cozy, sustainable with full taste, happy to repeat! It was a vegan menu, but there are also dishes with meat. Are you looking for companionship? Glad to be there

Small but very fine menu, everything was perfectly coordinated and very friendly and attentive service. We will definitely come more often!

This restaurant is located in the middle of a lot of urban gardens in Berlin and the entire menu is created based on seasonal ingredients. So the moral is that you choose one of the main dish options and they are all completely vegetarian. I assume it all comes from the surrounding gardens. Then you may or may not add one of the animal protein options they offer. So there are options for everyone. The service was very quick and friendly.

Very tasty food with a cheerful team

We eat here regularly and no matter what dish we order, it is always absolutely delicious. Super well coordinated and beautifully prepared. There is so much emphasis on fresh food and it shows. We particularly like the concept of the menu, which opens up many options and you can eat exactly what you want. The service is simply warm, funny and courteous. It has definitely become our favorite place. Thanks to the entire Bollenpiepe team ❤️

Culinary discovery in Pankow Even if it is “just” a garden pub, this restaurant is different from many: creative cuisine that tastes good and makes you want to visit again, plus warm hosts... overall a great concept and an enrichment for the north. Definitely try it out!

Great shop, was quite surprised. Far exceeded my expectations. Basically vegan, but if you like you can order meat or fish. Great concept.

A beautiful restaurant in a beautiful location. The food exceeded our expectations overall. Who expects absolute gourmet cuisine in a garden restaurant? A recommendation!!

Delicious German fusion. Fast service. Nice atmosphere.

Based on the reviews we had read, we expected good food, but the food exceeded all expectations. Lovingly prepared with an eye for detail, the dishes are actually reminiscent of very upscale cuisine. The taste was just as convincing as the look. The selection and quality of plant-based dishes will definitely keep us coming back quickly. We can only recommend the Bollenpiepe to everyone.

From a culinary point of view, I can only recommend the restaurant “Bollenpiepe”. Keep it up.

An extremely pleasant surprise with a great concept: The base is vegetarian, but there are great "side dishes" for meat and fish eaters Star level below normal The highlight is definitely in Niederschönhausen - actually also in Pankow

Cozy restaurant in the north of Berlin

The food was excellent! Everything was of very good quality, very creative and also pleasing to the eye. My star was the iced cucumber soup. Really great and not often seen concept.
