Second best cheesecake ever! (2nd best because Bassano's won't insult your mom!) Love this place. The owners are super active in the community. Their desserts are top notch, but don't ignore their breakfast! They also have great live music most weekends during the evening. with beer and wine. Don't miss out on this amazing gem!! read more

I am a regular customer here. My family and I have spent a lot of money here and their cheesecake is great. However, customer service is important as well. I walked in and placed my order, 2 customers walked in behind me and ordered after I did. I then got completely ignored. I'd ordered 6 pieces of cheesecake after the poor customer service I only got 2 and that's only because my daughter wanted it and is moving away. I however, will not be returning if my dollar is inferior to other customers. Update: The owner's action, accountability and response it evidence of the care he has for his business and customers. My next visit to Safety Harbor, I will certainly be back. Thank you! read more

They may be known for cheesecake, but they have a wonderful weekend breakfast. It's really difficult to find places that make corned beef hash that they make themselves and is flavorful with corned beef seasonings. I'm always looking for a good place for corned beef hash that is homemade. They also were not stingy with the amount of meat for the hash. The eggs were perfectly cooked. I ordered pumpernickel toast and it came perfectly toasted and buttered. They also use premium jam, Dickinson's red raspberry jam in a little jar. It was a nice touch. To drink I had an iced chai latte. I do not know of many places that actually brew it from scratch with chai tea leaves and spices. My husband tasted it and thought it was as good as what you would get in an Indian tea stall. It does not have any sweetener in it, but has lots of flavor. It was brewed just the way we like it. I don't like places that use sweetened chai concentrate. So be patient while they brew it fresh for you. We also ordered French toast, which was challah bread that had been soaked to give that custard flavor and feel. They also put a little bit of butter on top of the French toast, which adds a nice salty creamy flavor. We were surprised that they were not super busy for breakfast. I would highly suggest trying this place for a wonderful breakfast treat. read more

what a cute little find!! they had such a great variety of cheesecakes and they all look delicious. We were able to try the carrot cake cheesecake which wasn't too sweet and perfect to share. The staff there was very knowledgeable on which ones were the best Sellers. It was also plenty of seating inside and it was Christmas themed! read more

Bassano Cheesecake Cafe - Desserts Near Me - Safety Harbor, Florida

We visit Bassano Cheesecake anytime we're in the Safety Harbor area, the quaint, eclectic feel of this cafe - on top of the delicious cheesecake - is a must try spot. I love the Christmas decor throughout, because even when it isn't the Christmas season something about holiday decor lifts the spirits. The coffee here is pretty good too - I usually order a latte and always enjoy it. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, all around this is a good little spot! read more

I've been meaning to try Bassano Cheesecake for quite some time. I finally made it here and it did not disappoint. Hubby and I ordered/shared these 2 cheesecakes after having a late lunch at The Tides: * Carrot Cake Cheesecake * Turtle Cheesecake Both were delicious, creamy, and decadent. The Carrot Cake Cheesecake was my favorite, though. As a person who loves carrot cake, but is allergic to walnuts, finding out that the Carrot Cake Cheesecake didn't have walnuts was a pleasant surprise. read more

This small cheesecake establishment in Safety Harbor, Florida has the very best cheesecake in the state. Made fresh daily over the years I have had almost every flavor. My favorite has been the Turtle Cheesecake. So decadent and delicious. The team there go out of their way to welcome you to the location. Such a great atmosphere read more

Every single time I've visited, the food is outstanding, the service is excellent, and it's the cutest little place where you can sit and have a nice chat. Special shout out to the tiramisu cheesecake. You can have a fantastic date night just by walking down Main Street, grabbing dinner and drinks, and then finishing up with dessert and espresso at Bassano. read more

A charming little cheesecake spot in lovely Safety Harbor. I ordered a black cold brew after asking if it's made in house. They said it is and despite it being $7 it was promptly brought out in a styrofoam cup like one might get from a gas station. What was contained in said cup was what can only be described as a simulacrum of a vanilla and coconut scented candle. It was explained to me that the cold brew was in fact Joffrey's mix and it's Jamaican Me Crazy Flavored. The drink was disposed of. No refund was offered. Had no appetite for cheesecake at that point. Our other drink was served hot instead of iced. Nice outdoor seating. Update to respond to owner- Wow, I appreciate your response but it was not quite "accurate" itself. When I took the cold brew inside to ask about what I was served and was informed that it was not made in house as I was told, and that it was flavored (specifically not what I had requested) I explained I couldn't drink it and asked what could be done. They said "at this point nothing." I think dropped the drink in the trash in front of them. I returned outside, wrote my review, and told the people I was with. My 13 year old niece who I was visiting said "that's insane, I'm going to go get your refund." And sure enough they did! But my review had been written. According to her your staff was not at all accommodating about the refund, but they did provide it. Also, as for etiquette concerns for the party I was visiting family and friends that were already on your patio. I can't vouch for how long they were there or what they did or did not receive. So to recap- I came in with my sister, we ordered 2 drinks. Both were wrong. One was fixed and the other was disposed of. There was a refund after the fact but not to me. read more

Bassano Cheesecake Cafe - Work environment - Desserts Near Me - Safety Harbor, Florida

So, other than cupcakes, another one of my all time favorite foods is...CHEESECAKE!!!! And Bassano's is just another place to testify that you don't need to travel all the way to New York for some of the delicious, tasty treat! The very first time I've been made aware of Bassano is through a Yelp Event, and ever since having experienced it, I knew I had to come back for more. It's some of the best cheesecake I've ever had, with my personal favorite being the Charley Belcher cheesecake. It's caramel macchiato flavor really sets it apart from other cheesecakes. And the devil, for lack of a better word, is in the details, and each slice of their cheesecakes is very carefully crafted. The Charley Belcher cheesecake is coffee flavored, with a candy coated espresso bean on top, and a caramel drizzle over top. It might be my favorite cheesecake of all time, really, since it combines my favorite flavor in a delicious cheesecake. The store itself is absolutely adorable too with indoor and outdoor seating, all decorated in time for the holidays. They allowed my little Muffin into the shop, so I get to enjoy my cheesecake slice inside the store with my dog and really appreciate the Christmas decor. The server there was very friendly, and gave me the good news that apparently, they are not leaving the area (earlier this year, that was the news, but I guess they worked out.) Relieved to know this because I know for a fact that I will be back to try more treats. I notice they have cupcakes and cookies too, so I'll be sure to get one, but I just love the Charley Belcher cheesecake so much, that I think that'll have to be my usual. read more

Bassano has the best cheesecake I've ever had, hands down...and that's saying a lot! I used to think Juniors in NYC was the best, but nope...I think Bassano has them beat! Every flavor I've tried is soooo good (see pics and videos)! They also have really good service. I ordered through Ubereats a few times, and one time they messed up my order. On the next delivery they were extra careful not to make the same mistake and even included a note. Super sweet! read more

This is a cute, quaint little cafe that seems to have Christmas year round. I am a sucker for black and white cookie (the New Yorker in me) and this place didn't disappoint. And the coffee smells along with the coziness of the holiday feel makes it so pleasant. You can't be or even stay in a bad mood when you're here. Also they have the option of oat and almond milk, despite not being able to find it in their menu. read more

My family and I are in town and we saw Bassano's and was excited to give it a try. We were welcomed graciously and the staff were so kind and informative in answering all our questions as well as giving recommendations. My wife and I decided to share the bagel and lox with hash browns for the kids and a slice of Original NY Cheesecake. To wash it down we ordered a cappuccino, iced caramel macchiato, and chocolate milk for the kids. The bagel and lox was very delicious. You can immediately tell that the bagel sets itself apart from the competition. If you've had an authentic NYC bagel, you will not be disappointed here. The hash browns were seasoned perfectly but a bit on the soggy end (wish it was much more crispy). With the coffee we noticed they used "Joffrey's brand". If you're a Disney fan then you know. The coffee here blows away Starbucks. We were very impressed. Along those lines, the chocolate milk the kids loved as well as my wife and I were surprised how delicious it was from what we have tried. We were able to enjoy a quick breakfast in their little dining area with a handful of tables, a TV, a nice fire pit, and lots of decorations from the holidays. If you're looking for authentic NYC bagels and cheesecake Bassano's brings the authenticity right in the heart of Safety Harbor. read more

Went there to see Shaun Hopper and Chris Barbosa for their Christmas light show. The inside was decorated so adorable with so much Christmas flare. Outside was lovely. The lights were decked out for Christmas and the small stand for beer & wine was always moving with lovely service. We had our puppy with us and one of the staff members even gave him a piece of bacon. So sweet. At the end of the performance they did a free raffle and handed everyone watching a ticket to have a chance. Awesome outside venue and lovely atmosphere. Things like this make me love safety harbor even more. read more

This place is awesome. A family owned business to the core with some of the kindest and most generous humans!

While my boyfriend's parents visited this weekend, we ended up doing a little food tour of Safety Harbor including dessert here. Admittedly upon entry I had concerns because it is *tight* coming in through that front door. The display case of cheesecakes is front and center, perfect for tempting your taste buds, but also forcing a single file zigzag to the register with the other coolers in front. However, there was a cozy sitting area inside just beyond the register, and multiple seating spots outside too, so don't let that initial squished feeling deter you! We had eaten our fill of appetizers and meals at the Tiki Tavern prior, but that didn't stop me from drooling over the variety of options. I was thoroughly tempted by the peanut butter cup inspired one, and as a former New Yorker, nothing draws me in more than a classic NY cheesecake with a fruit swirl like strawberry or raspberry, both which they had. My boyfriend & I ended up splitting the Big & Nasty Oreo as he's a huge cookies & crème fan, his dad got the mint Oreo, and his mom opted for the cannoli cheesecake. Her's came with an adorable baby cannoli on top too! His dad also got a double espresso & his mom had a glass of red wine, both which they enjoyed. From the chalkboard menus, it also was clear they had a great variety of coffee, teas, and wines. The staff was nice, efficient, and personable. They not only had smiles on their faces and knowledge to share, but you could also tell they enjoyed being there, interacting with the customers, and were comfortable in the space. read more

Wow! Great cheesecake! It was rich with hints of strawberry and a good crust too. We also tried some wine there, which was a really good cabernet! Service was exceptional. They had an adorable doggie roaming around, which my kids loved. They were given some treats to feed it too. Overall, this place is adorable, friendly and great baked goods. read more

Found this hidden gem in Safety Harbor today. It is on Main St and welcomes you with a case of their different cheesecakes as soon as you walk in. The ambience is warm and inviting with a room of comfortable seating where you can enjoy their delicious food. We were warmly welcomed and the staff was so friendly and helpful. The variety of cheesecake slices that we chose was masterfully put together as we waited. We chose 12 of their flavors since we could not decide on just one or two. The cheesecake is delicious and I can't wait to try the rest of them. We are excited to introduce this place to our friends soon. read more
