CRAZY BASTARD KITCHEN in Berlin

Great prices, drinks delicious, sauces legendary!

Went here for a menu week, was very nice, friendly staff. Lots of vegan/ vegetarian options.

My Irish friend invited me here to try the Irish Week theme they had going. Was a bit skeptical given they rotate their menus every week, so to me it seemed like a 'jack of all trades, master of none' type deal, but I actually really liked the dishes they had on their menu! Crispy fish, delicious fries in 2 variants and a great spice bag too. If their other special weeks are as quality as this one, I'm sure you can come in at any point and be treated with a solid dinner.

Delicious food and great variety of beverages, would not hesitate to recommend! Really enjoy the alternating selection of themed menus :)

What ever they cook, I will eat. It is that good, and I am a picky person with my food. Tried the vegan fried chicken and it was super light. I also tried the Korean week with fried chicken and rice and I can't explain how good it was. The kimchi was also good.

Great menu that changes each week, always super good. Highly recommended!

10/10 tacos, yummy cocktails and super friendly and kind staff - what more could you ask for! Great for GF and veggie

Tried to order by phone for pickup today two hours after opening. Always taken. So I went straight to the store to order. Then I hear that no takeaway food is being sold. You have to sit directly in the restaurant and order. My boyfriend is currently not mobile and was sitting at home hungry. I also didn't understand what the difference was between selling me take-away food and why it was only possible to eat on site. Thanks for nothing. Was the first and last time for me. Why you specifically provide a phone number on your website for pickup orders is a mystery to me. So far so bad.

Amazing concept, food really on point in a cozy vibe with an excellent service!

Worth a visit with delicious, varied dishes.

Food is delicious and their sauces as well. They rotate dishes weekly and have one of the best vegan burgers around the area.

The best fish and chips in Berlin when they have it on the menu :)) the staff are great. Really welcoming place ☺️

Very cool place! They have different themed weeks all the time and always high quality. Staff are nice and the beer and cocktail selection is great, we tried some unique beers and also Japanese yuzu gin and tonic. The spicy sauce is very saucy ;)

Fantastic place through and through. Sat on the street and had amazing Korean fried chicken wings and tried 10 different hot sauces. Bought some bottles to take home too. Will be back again.

Definitely visiting this place again. It was so fun to try all the different hot sauces they have. The Korean fried chicken was delicious! Such a great concept that they have a different menu every week.

Far too expensive...the curry sauce was too watery. Needs to be thick

Been to CBK for almost all the weekly menus except probably a couple and this place literally never disappoints. They definitely know what they're doing with every menu that they have, the staff is super friendly, great drinks (would strongly recommend the Margaritas). The standout for me was definitely the Manchester Curry Mile week - there's a million Indian restaurants in Berlin that do shocking Indian food and CBK, despite not being an Indian restaurant, blows them all out of the water. The lamb, the chicken, the onion bhajis were superb. But every menu that they have is on point to be honest. They also always have vegan and vegetarian options, regardless of the week. Again, really never disappoints - if you're in Neukölln and need a bite, would 100% recommend. Thanks to the CBK team, you guys know what you're doing with food :)

Very nice staff and nice atmosphere. Unfortunately the food wasn't good at all and the chicken was practically raw and slippery :(

Updating my review after multiple visits. I'm a regular and in love with this place. I make it a point to bring along friends and family whenever they visit. The location is in one of the nicest streets in Berlin and easily accessible from most parts of town. The food is excellent and most menus have been nothing short of perfect. As a vegetarian, I always have a good amount of choice. The variety of menus is also something that keeps me coming back for more. While some are not quite up to the mark, that's purely subjective and down to personal taste. It's not a strike against the quality of the food or the effort put into it. The one complaint I have is the lack of the Manchester Curry Mile. That's the one I and many others are pining for. Finally, the staff are absolutely lovely. Friendly and accommodating, especially when it's overcrowded. Special shout out to Jade, who makes the best frozen margaritas in town!

Fish&chips weeks are amazing. But be careful with lamb vindaloo on the curry week - it is as spicy as it gets.

Great food and lovely atmosphere. There's often many cool dogs

I had this place on my wish-list because the varied themed menus are very tempting. To be honest, I was a bit doubtful about how good it could be because they do so many different styles of food that one would think that it would be hard to get them right (you know, if you specialize in too many things, you specialize on nothing). Also, tonight it was "fish 'n' chips evening" and, as far as I knew, they specialized in chicken, not fish. But I have seen many positive reviews so it was something definitely worth trying. Well, the fish 'n' chips were absolutely delicious. The batter and crispiness was on-point; the fish was fresh and perfect; the chips were good (not a 10 but still very good). The deep-frying was well done (not oily at all and nothing slightly burned). You can add another fish for 10 euros. I saw that too late. I totally would have eaten 2 of those. As a bonus for my personal taste, they even had Fritz Cola <3. Oh, and they have a vegetarian option (sorry, now I don't remember if it was vegetarian or vegan) called "vish 'n' chips". I bet it was good too. Service was nice and the place pretty chill. Was busy but not packed. This one goes right to my list of favorites. I will come back to try the other food.

I'll definitely come back. Soooo cool friendly women power from the staff. Free shots and a solution for every problem. The sauces were really good and so was the dish. Relaxed atmosphere. Thanks

Can't speak more highly of this place. Great staff and food that's high quality and delicious without being pretentious. The elusive Indonesia week is probably my fave but they're all excellent, I go here all the time. Plus unlimited hot sauce! The pumpkin, clementine and watermelon ones are particular highlights for me

Perfect place and show and delicious foods.

I really like the regular change in the menu

I love the CBK weekly events featuring cuisines from all over the world! So far, every single week has been delicious. The prices are pretty fair and both the meat and veg/vegan options are great. You can also try as much of their hot sauce as you like. Berliner Berg beer on tap and a decent selection of bottles in the fridges.

Great food and hot sauce! Weekly rotating menu, and everything has a vegan option.

Very nice service. Everything fits, especially the sauces 👌🏽👌🏽

They have fried chicken, proper and vegan. They also have a variety of hot sauces with very useful hotness rate. They also have craft beer (with and without alcohol). The place is a bit bare and noisy.

Great place! Everything I tried there was delicious. And thanks to this restaurant I got to know a lot of different kitchens all over the world. Everytime I go I also buy the cranberry hot soup. It’s amazing

Delicious. That’s it. Highly recommend

While the place looks very basic inside (just white walls and tables), I‘m simply in love with the variety of food you can eat here. They‘re cooking a different cuisine from all over the world every week. I‘ve tried Indonesian and Jamaican so far and both were excellent.

The Crazy B's have always been there for me during my darkest hours - whether it be home delivery when I broke my wrist or a window drop off when the Rona got me. Tonight was the latter and luckily I still posses the senses of taste and smell. The Beef Rendang is delicious. It's soft and salty and aromatic and juicy, coupled with the rice and karadok side salad - adding a nice texture and crunch to everything. A bottle of Nero D'Avola to wash it all down with and I genuinely couldn't be happier. 5 out of 5. Will be back in person when I'm fit again. Thanks CBK Crew x

The CBK is fantastic and absolutely worth a visit. I was not convinced that they could do both truly excellent Kentucky Fried Chicken and a really, really good chicken satay. But I am here to say that they do!

We were there for the Korean weak and tried the US vegan burger, it was just the best we have ever had!!

Ok, understand why they are trying to do. Just didn’t quite in the mark for me

I’m just so happy this place exists

Wow the spice bag was unreal! Everything was cooked perfectly. Spices outstanding! Staff was friendly and informative. Some of the best hot sauce I’ve ever tried as well. Will be back with friends for Chinatown week !

I waited for the return of The Kentucky Fried Chicken Week and my time has come. As i had previously experienced this dish, it has been adequately Corrected in a mouth savoring Herb encrusted peppery perfection. Although the wait is lengthy, It was well worth it in quality and quantity. Moist Crunchy Tasty and Tender it hit all The necessary notes and then some. The sides are fresh yet refined. My dining Partner got the mash + gravy and I chose the Mac n Cheese. Both providing the punch that delivers the Knock Out. As in if you eat the Serving prepare for a rest. I’m more the two meal for One approach. Either way as we say In the Hood. Ain’t no thang but a Chicken Wang. (Shouts to Golf Wang OF)

Spielen laut Musik und Scheren sich nicht um Ihre Nachbarn. Update: in letzter Zeit ist es etwas besser

Ordered everything on the menu for the Japanese week and was super delighted with everything. The sauces have a wide range to cater to everyone. Really lovely restaurant. Check social media for the current week as it changes each week

Absolutely love this place! I think the price reflects the quality of food. I always leave here feeling full. My only complaint is that it is not closer to home 😅

When I went there, it was Mexican week. They had vegan options and also gluten-free dishes. Tried Pozole and it was delicious. Portion could have been bigger though. Atmosphere is nice, relaxed. One client brought his dog, and it wasn’t a problem.

Great price, great food, and good menu. Just be aware of the waiting time, like every day of the week.

Very nice! Loved the experience with the hot sauces. Was great ❤️

Wirklich beeindruckend, wie gut man ein veganes Gericht hinbekommt! Hatte richtig Biss, Geschmack und reichlich war es auch noch. Nun gut, man spricht auf der Weserstraße kein Deutsch mehr, aber damit muss man leben, wenn man auf der Touri-Meile Essen gehen will. Die Einrichtung ist schlicht, bequem ist anders. Aber alles irgendwie urig und okay. Freundliche Menschen, die dort arbeiten. Die Saucen sind extrem lecker!

We've gone twice. Great food, good service, tasty jalapeno margaritas and tons of delicious homemade hot sauces. Menu rotated weekly.

Thinking of giving this chicken place a miss? What are ya, clucking feather-brained?

Best fish and chips in Berlin. Also great tacos, arepas and jerk chicken. They put a lot of care into the food. Service can be bit chaotic but always friendly

A place with good food in the neighborhood. The menu is changing every week. Their concept involves their own spicy sauces that you can also buy for home.

Bester Laden. Veganer im Freundeskreis oder Fleischfresser? Hier werden beide glücklich. Essen ist immer top. Und die scharfen Soßen haben viele Geschmacksrichtungen. Immer ein bisschen Chili und ein bisschen was geiles zum ergänzen. Ach ja, die KFC Woche ist der Hammer. Vermisst werden nur die chicken and Waffels

I just love this place - every week a different cuisine plus a huge selection of hot sauces to chose from! A dream come true for anyone that loves to eat especially spicy stuff. But don’t worry, if spicy is not your thing, you can get your food non-🌶️

Ich war hier schon öfter essen und bin von gesamten Konzept begeistert. Es gibt jede Woche ein anderes Menü, welches man vorab auf der Website (auch für die folgenden Wochen) einsehen kann. Ich war bisher zur American Fried Chicken Week. Das frittierte Hähnchen alleine und im Burger, die Mac‘n Cheese sowie der Kartoffelbrei waren wirklich sehr gut! Besser habe ich es in Deutschland noch nicht gegessen. Danach war ich zur Korean Fried Chicken Week, welche mich tatsächlich nicht überzeugt hat. Ein großes Highlight war für mich die Portugiesische Woche. Es gab Francesinha und es war sehr sehr lecker. Weiterhin hatten wir Grillhähnchen, welches geschmacklich auch sehr gut war und mich an Restaurantbesuche in Portugal erinnert hat. Das Personal ist sehr nett und bisher hatte ich nie Probleme einen Platz zu bekommen. Vor Ort kann man zu seinen Speisen auch die eigenen CB Saucen ausprobieren. Ich freue mich schon auf kommende Besuche, um weitere Highlights zu probieren (Jamaican Jerk week)

Cooles hippes Restaurant in der Weserstraße. Wöchentliche wechselnde Speisekarte mit einem bestimmten Thema. Bedienung sehr flott und nett. Wenige Sitzplätze auf dem Bürgersteig. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Weiter so.

I was there for the Korean chicken night and the food was excellent. The range of hot sauces were delicious too.

Super bueno y especiales salsas

Rotating weekly menu of delicious things

Die Saucen sind spitze, super Schärfegrade und schöne Abwechslung bei den Speisen. Etwas teuer aber dafür darf man die Saucen kostenlos nach belieben zum Essen testen. Wir waren zum koreanischen fried chicken essen dort war nicht schlecht, Burger können sie aufjedenfall ziemlich gut, die würde ich eher empfhelen.

TLDR: Terrible food, tiny portions, long wait. Menu was Japanese themed, no other options available. Chose eggplant/bell pepper dish as I wasn’t too hungry it should have been just right. My friend had fried chicken. We added a bowl of steamed rice to share (4 Euros!!). After a very long wait of over 30 minutes we were served two very small dishes. I was shocked to be charged nearly 10 euros for tiny scraps of eggplant and half a bell pepper. Seriously? Rice was Chinese type (not Japanese as it should have been) and completely over cooked and wet like gross pudding. 4 Euros for a small bowl of disgusting rice, thank you but no thanks. Worst dining experience in terms of food. Waiter was good though. If you served food like this in Asia you’d have to close doors in a week!

Eine Frechheit, so einen miesen Frass kann man nur Hipster-Ausländern servieren: billigste Zutaten (alles schön frittiert), schlecht gelaunte Angestellte. Funktioniert so wohl nur in Kreuzkölln…. Und als Antwort auf die Belehrung unten: ICH bin selber waschechter Kanack (können sicher weder die Bedienung, noch die Inhaber von sich behaupten). Vielleicht kann ich den Spieß ja umdrehen: bin ich einfach zu dunkel oder spreche zu schlecht Englisch, um hier ordentlich bedient zu werden? Zu den Zutaten bester Qualität äußere ich mich mal nicht... und am Ende ist man ja auch ein wenig selbst dafür verantwortlich, wo man essen geht.

Great concept restaurant. So their main thing is their in-house roster of hot sauce and a weekly rotating menu. Menu is usually small and concise offering meat and vegan options to common cuisines and styles. Haven't been there all that often but it really is good tasting stuff they serve there so the weekly rotation isn't just a gimmick. Anyway, Eating in house lets you freely taste and test their hot sauces. And it sometimes is really expensive stuff to the point where I'd rather eat in house than buy the hotsauces. That said, the hotsauces are really good. As far as I can tell, no chemical hotness is used and stuff actually has some taste to it as opposed to just pure chemical no taste hotness. I'd imagine picky eaters to not have a good time there given the mentioned things above but who cares about them anyway right. Recommend.

Gut besuchtes veganfreundliches englischsprachiges Restaurant. Das Angebot wechselt wöchentlich. Wir hatten die Tacowoche zur Verfügung. Die einzelnen Tacos waren sehr gut. Es besteht die Möglichkeit sein Gericht mit den hauseigenen Sossen nachzuschärfen. Reservierung unbedingt erforderlich.

amazing. not only that they have a wide range of the best hot sauces i ever tasted and really friendly staff, half of the menu is vegan and incredibly tasty. see you again soon!

Crispy fish&chips, good beer selection and tasty hot sauces

3 stars for the lovely stuff, otherwise it would’ve been 1 for the food - low quality, poor taste. Very disappointing.

I've tried the Taco and Kentucky Fried Chicken Weeks so far. I liked the variety and taste of tacos, however I must say that they couldn't set the level of hotness of the Nashville Hot Fried Chicken. As a person who can tolerate hot/spicy foods very WELL, I found it extremely hot that I couldn't taste the chicken itself, mac n cheese, or coleslaw but only the burning in my mouth. And I had a stomach ache in the next morning. I would expect them to either write on the menu that Nashville is extremely* HOT or make it less hot that I don't get a stomach ache for hours after eating it!

Great food, perfect spiciness and even though they were quite busy, food was quicker than expected. Also, they have really good vegetarian options (i.e. everything)!

Been coming here occasionally since years. Until I took a friend who decided, we'd go every week- so it's what we are doing ever since. Our Portuguese friend who joined us for Portugal week, said they loved it. Another one from New Orleans found Creole vuisine week was 100%. A friend from Chile loves the Blueberry Carolina Reaper sauce, and a Scottish colleague was so happy about fish & chips. A colleague from Costa Rica exported the 7 Pot sauce to give to his family, and myself from the US can confirm CBS got Kentucky fried chicken down! My favorite sauce are Chipotle-Pineapple, and Ghost Pepper- Mango. The food might now come out 2 mins after ordering, but for me it's a good sign. It is always freshly made and quality takes time. No matter what cuisine, it is amazing and worth the wait! All waiters I encountered, are really nice and attentive. See you next week! :)

The rotating menu offers an impressive variety but sometimes it is hard to read because of how fast it is spinning round. Service is friendly and the vegan options are always superb. It's tucked away in one of those strange corners of Berlin where there seems to be few tourists yet inexplicably every third accent you hear is American. When I left my job three years ago to become a full time Google Maps Local Guide, I was unsure if I had made a wise financial decision, but restaurants like this not only remind me that I certainly chose the right path, but are also the reason I wake up each morning.

Great food, awful long wait time. Don't go there if you are in a hurry

13132 All copz are crazy bastrd. That's like going to a Heinz or a Hellman's restaurant. #protip Buy the pepper, go home. Make your own nachos or chicken whatever.

50min after arriving I finally got my two burgers. 15min until anyone took my order. More than half an hour for two burgers to be made. Restaurant is half full. Staff couldn't be more chill, though. Buns are cold. Meat (chicken) ok. Sauces delicious. With 10€/burger still way too expensive.

Really cool place with a cool concept, weekly rotating Menus. Food was good, the spciy sauces were indeed spciy. Loved it! Definitely coming next week to try my countries roasted chicken!

The fish&chip was tasty and crunchy and we tried all the sauces and got a complimentary shot. Try the jalapeno margarita!!! The waiters are kind and helpfull.

One of my favourite sauces, and some of my favourite cuisines. The best place to get a spice bag outside Dublin!

Every week they change of menu ! I love the concept and food was delicious this week. Fish and chips <3 you have to try the sauces (ask for them, they don't bring it to your table, you have to go and pick them up)

Meine Sohnemann hat mich eingeladen. Wir waren rundum zufrieden.

Great food. The restaurant was full because the food is really good. Nice staff as well

It seems an interesting restaurant. Every week they arrange food from different cuisine. I tried the Mexican one and it was great. Small menu but delicious food. The staff were very friendly too. Will definitely go there to try different cousine.

Always good to go, try out different food and all of the spicy sauces!

Of course the vegan food is great but the spicy tomato shots that come in little skull glasses are like nothing I've ever experienced. In an excellent way. The jokes are 5 star too.

I've gone for their fried chicken week and Korean fried chicken week - and as a vegetarian I really appreciate that they have vegetarian and vegan versions of their dishes and it's not a subpar alternative option. My only complaint is that the portion for the imitation chicken is smaller than the chicken chicken and it's less filling so it feels a bit unfair (woe is me). The hot sauce selection is of course great, overall I wish the hot sauces were a bit more than one note sauces but there are a couple that deliver on that. If you order the vegetarian option and eat dairy and want the dairy option of a side dish, make sure you let them know (my vegetarian fried chicken came with vegan Mac n cheese as a default).

Toller und sehr freundlicher Service. Man stellte uns extra noch einen Tisch nach draußen. Das Essen war sehr lecker und preislich absolut gut. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Quite an interesting concept for rotating menus and excellent choices of hot sauces across a spectrum of spiciness levels. Been here multiple times, and while the service is generally good, it consistently took a long while to be served after placing our orders. I found this a bit frustrating, considering that the menu selection is small (by design), which is the only reason I haven't given 5 stars here.

Very good food, the menu changes all the time, always spicy, mouth on fire after, love it.

The website only allows you to book a table if you are five or more, so our group of three ended up waiting ages for a table. The staff were very nice about it, and brought us a complimentary shot, but this was after losing a drink, moving us around, threatening to move us about a bit more, and it being quite long before food showed up. Add to this the fact that the vegan jerk chicken was more like fajitas. For 14 EUR it’s not the biggest plate of food but it’s ok. The margarita was excellent. The chairs are a bit rickety so if you’re over 120 lbs it feels like a gamble. The hot sauces were excellent.

Not authentic jerk chicken and slow service (30 minutes until we got drinks). Great hot sauce though

Very fun and cool place to eat dinner - in an area of Berlin not too crowded by tourists. The place is very relaxed and lay back, with a weekly menu that is updated every week. We had Jamaican food which was really great - combined with their own delicious hot sauces! 💪🔥🌶️ Their had a nice selection of craft beers and everything was very fairly priced. I’m definitely going back next time I’m in Berlin ❤️

Super good quality of service and food is totally worthy. We had a table during the fish and chips week and the frying was absolutely outstanding. You also get to try their amazing sauces. Super recommender

Ah, Crazy Bastard Kitchen, the place where flavor and heat come together to make your taste buds dance like they're at an Irish jig. I recently had the pleasure of trying their Irish spice bag with curry sauce, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride. First of all, let's talk about the spice bag. It's like a mystery box of flavor, filled with crispy fries, tender chicken, and a variety of spices that are guaranteed to make your mouth tingle. I'm pretty sure I found a chili pepper in there that was hotter than the sun, but hey, who needs feeling in their taste buds anyway? And then there's the curry sauce. It's like a magical elixir that brings everything together. It's creamy, it's spicy, and it's the perfect complement to the already flavorful spice bag. I'm pretty sure I could drink a pint of that stuff and be happy for the rest of my life. But let's not forget about the name of this establishment - Crazy Bastard Kitchen. It's like they're daring you to try their food, knowing full well that it's going to blow your mind (and maybe even your taste buds). I mean, who puts curry sauce on an Irish spice bag? Only a crazy bastard, that's who. Overall, I highly recommend giving Crazy Bastard Kitchen a try. It's like a culinary adventure, taking your taste buds on a journey they never knew they needed. And who knows, you might even discover a new love for spicy, Irish cuisine. Just be sure to have a glass of milk nearby, because this food is not for the faint of heart (or stomach).

Es bleibt halt Fast Food. Waren der Fried chicken Woche da, das es entweder mit Kartoffelpüree und Sauce oder mit Mac n Cheese gab. Das Hähnchen war schmackhaft und zart, die Sauce sehr rosmarinlastig, aber gut, ebenso wie das Kartoffelpüree. Die Mac n Cheese waren leider nur lauwarm. Die Bedienung war super freundlich. Sie verdient einen Extrapunkt ebenso wie die vielen Crazy scharfen Saucen. Ärgerlich: wir mussten über eine Stunde auf das Essen warten. Sehr langsames FastFood also

Great little restaurant with a rotating menu and pleasant atmosphere, loved the taco and Indonesian weeks so far!

Great Restaurant concept. Rotating menu and all their hit sauces available. We there during Scottish week. Loved both the fish and chips and the haggis. Will come back to try more

Ok but a bit expensive for the food they serve.

The Kentucky fried chicken burger was the best chicken burger I've had in Berlin! Well seasoned, super juicy and great bun. So good to have a selection of proper hot sauces to add too! I can't wait to try the other menus they offer 🔥 Also the staff were friendly 😊

Excellent, very tender fried chicken. Also cute house dog.

Wir waren dort um die äußerst leckeren Chilisoßen zu kaufen und haben dort auch mittelamerikanische Küche genossen, sehr authentisch, sehr lecker, gerne wieder und wegen der Chilisoßen sowieso.

매운 소스가 최고! 그리고 매주 컨셉이 로테이션이라 메뉴도 달라요 멕시칸 주에 갔는데 맛있었습니당

What’s not to love! These guys are just amazing — honest, hearty food and plenty of different hot sauces to keep your mouth at your fire level of desire 🧡
