Beautifull - this place was so beautiful! The green trees of the park, flowers, peace, and its still in the middle of the city. Also the dining bubble was opened so we made chimney cakes basically in the open air. Fantastic!

Fantastic Experience Chimney Cake school at a Superb Location! - My experience at the Cimney Cake School was absolutely delightful! From start to finish, it was a fantastic journey filled with fun and learning. The location nestled within a beautiful park added an extra charm to the whole experience. Our instructor was simply amazing, guiding us with expertise and enthusiasm throughout the class. And oh, the final product - the Chimney Cake we made was hands down the best in Budapest! The combination of crispy dough and delicious toppings left us craving for more. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Budapest. It's a must-do activity that guarantees joy, learning, and of course, mouthwatering treats!

Nice experience - We were so happy to find this workshop still available! Their chimney cake workshop downtown was fully booked for the day we could go, and then we found this one in the park, and realized it’s the same company, so we booked, attended, and loved every second of it. Especially that we learned why exactly the chimney cake is called chimney cake . You’ll see when you make your first one!

awesome! - Great workshop, and we loved that it's in the middle of the park, with transparent walls, so it's basically like you're baking outside. The bubble can become hot from the oven, but we kept the door open, and the ventilator going. It was a lovely experience with the family!

Superb experience with tasty results - What a creative experience, and what a beautiful setting! Making chimney cake in Budapest is a new experience as I understood, but the way they imagined it, inside this bubble, in the middle of the park, it's fabulous! Thank you!

Great time - We loved the chimney cake experience, and the fact that it’s in a transparent iglu in the middle of the city park that’s covered in blossoms now, it was really lovely. An experience we truly recommend, especially if you’re planning to visit the thermal baths nearby.

Great place!! - Good experience for cold days in Budapest. The location is perfect, it’s easy to stop by, do a workshop of chimney cakes, have a coffee, warm up, and then continue visiting the city! Oh, and we could take 3 chimney cakes with us, that was the best part!

10/10! - WOW this was amazing! The workshop is in a bubble, literally, in the city park of Budapest, and we had a view all around to the spa and the towards the zoo. After the workshop, we ordered hot chocolate and set there for a while while we finished 2 of our chimney cakes.
