The kiosk is a hidden gem, open late into the night during summer months only.

Choose from a long list of delicious fillings and your order will be made for you on the spot. I would recommend eating them straight away as you can't beat that warm, fresh donut taste! Enjoy!

Several flavours, you can also order them without it and, for my personal taste even better, without the external sugar. One of the best Berlin balls I 've ever tasted. Soft and balanced sweetness on the pastry itself and a delicate, concise cream with the correct thickness. All this review is based on the standard, typical type of these Berlin balls, but I must say the apple ones did smell fantastic. Adding to this they are open until 3am (this is not a spelling error it 's really 3am), which turns out to be a great way to finish the day. Note: be prepared you may have to wait as there are lots of customers. Also the satnav/GPS points to another part of the building not the main entrance at the back through the side road. BTW although some brits refer to it as custard it 's not custard, and if I have to direct translate it from Portuguese it would be something like pastry chef cream , the closer Portuguese thing to custard would be leite creme .
