If you're in the area, I would definitely recommend stopping by this shoppe. I happen to be driving through the shopping center and discovered this place. Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts, so I had to give them a try. I wasn't disappointed. I tried the apple cobbler cheesecake, and it was amazing. It was a nice balance of apple cobbler flavor and cheesecake. It has nice portions of apples in it as well. The caramel sauce was just enough. I'm glad I don't live in the area and won't be working in the area much longer because this place would be a serious problem! read more

Pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately, they didn't have any cookies when I visited, so I had a slice of red velvet cake: the slice wasn't cheap, neither was it expensive: it was a good value. I have a really picky palette, and can easily detect low quality ingredients if they're used: that wasn't the case here! - Slice was generously sized. - Cake was moist, and evidentially fresh, in spite of the fact that I visited in the evening. - All of the flavors perfectly melded, and most of all, **no cheap, artificial, ingredients** were used: they used quality ingredients. - The bakery was clean. I live in York County, but if not for that fact, Candy's Cheesecake Shop would be a frequent destination for me. read more

The cheesecake tasted decent. Considering it's $10 a slice I kind of expected it to be a little better. The place only has 2 tables, but both were taken up by employees. The display is super cute and the presentation of the cakes is aesthetically pleasing. read more

The servers were very kind and helpful. I take minor issue with two things: (1) the time it took to receive my takeout order. It was over 20 minutes, and while I waited, folks walked in, placed new orders, got good, ate, and left before mine was ready. Probably a kitchen oversight, so no big deal. (2) there are no espresso based drinks here, which is quite surprising for a place with "café" in the name. There was a self-serve American coffee station however. Otherwise, if ever again in the area, I would return and order the same things!

Where do I start, there are so many wonderful things to say about this wonderful business. The cheesecake is simply the BEST I have ever tasted! My favorites are the banana pudding cheesecake and the orange dreamcicle. I have had several flavors and they have ALL been delicious. Also the owner and the staff are so polite and gracious. The atmosphere is welcoming and just peaceful. From the time you walk in you feel welcomed and comfortable. I stay 30 mins away in Shelby, but it is a drive I don't mind taking to get delicious cheesecake, cakes, and wonderful customer service. I also highly recommend the creme horns, mini cakes, and homemade banana pudding read more

Y'all, this cheesecake shoppe NEVER disappoints!!! You can tell that everything is sooo fresh and homemade. The cheesecake melts in your mouth and the toppings are always so yummy. My favorites are the Biscoff Cookie Butter Cheesecake, Coconut Cream Cheesecake, and the Samoa Cookie Cheesecake. The girls are always so kind and helpful! Not to mention what a wonderful person the owner is. It is reasonably priced for the amount and quality you get! I also love her cream horns and banana pudding. The cheesecake flavors rotate every day so it keeps you (or at least me) on your toes read more
