Cheesecake here is delicious, but the lines get long during the holidays. I waited here for an hour before Christmas for their strawberry cheesecake! I got the rainbow bar as well, and it's moist, and not too sweet. Prices are good, and I would come here on a daily basis for a sweet treat! read more

I need to go back right now. It's a bit of a commute from Long Island but well worth it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]First things first is extremely tiny and it is cash only.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So be prepared. As of 2026 the average full size cake prices around 35-40. We got a creamy red velvet cheesecake, a mini raspberry crumb cake how many key lime pie, a mini pineapple cheesecake and I just feel like I'm missing something else. While waiting the worker even gave my daughter a chocolate chip cookie. There was honestly not one item we didn't enjoy. We even got somebody else a black and white cookie and a cannoli. My personal favorite was the pineapple cheesecake I will go back to that when I go again. It was so creamy and delicious. Not overly sweet or bland it was perfect. My husband's favorite most of the raspberry crumb cake. I didn't get a chance to try it but he spoke about it for a couple of days so I know it must have been good. And my daughter loved the key lime pie read more

La Cheesecake is truly one of the best bakeries in College Point. We absolutely love their cheesecakes -- rich, creamy, and full of flavor every single time. You can really taste the quality and the fact that everything is baked fresh on the premises. They offer a huge variety of cakes, pies, pastries, and specialty desserts, and everything we've tried has been excellent. Whether you buy a whole cake or just grab something small to take home, the quality is always consistent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and service is quick.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's one of those neighborhood spots you keep coming back to because you know it's going to be good. read more

Wow, what insanely terrible customer service. Since it is a holiday weekend and scorching hot, prior to leaving to go to the bakery I called to ensure 1. that they were open 2. that they had the rainbow cookie bars/bricks. I was told, yes they were open their regular hours and that yes, they had plenty of rainbow cookie bars/bricks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I departed for my 25 minute trip to the bakery and upon arriving all items had been cleared off of their shelves and put in the refrigerator due to the heat - fine, okay, makes sense.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was then told it was too hot to sell anymore rainbow cookie bars. I let them know that I had just driven 25 minutes and had confirmed with an employee that they in fact had bars to sell. They did not care and said "no more." Incredibly rude, dismissive, and just a lack of care for their customers wanting to support their business. So, yes, this bakery makes delicious treats, but no, I will not be supporting them in the future. Buyer be warned, this bakery makes promises they can't keep! (Also, I am located in NYC, so not sure why it has my location as CA!) read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Tasty food, stellar service, in a warm, quaint ambiance is how I think of the best pastry shop in New York City.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you haven't been to La Cheesecake, you're missing out! My first time here, my cousin told me I had to try their "Crumb Bun", which is a cinnamon crumb cake with powdered sugar. I ordered one to go, along with a mini blueberry cheesecake. The Crumb Bun is so delicious, and buttery, and it almost melts in your mouth. The cinnamon crumbs on top are complimented by a beautiful buttery cake on the bottom of it, and every bite is heavenly. Same thing with the cheesecake. Although it was a mini cheesecake, it was the perfect bite. Rich cheesecake and a homemade blueberry compote on top is one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. You definitely have to put this on your list for a great dessert and pastries! read more

CASH ONLY! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute bakery![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got three mini cheesecakes- raspberry, strawberry, and cherry. I love the cherry cheesecake sm! I'm definitely coming back to try more of their desserts; the service was fast even though there were a lot of people. There's a discrepancy between the menu prices and actual prices so I do recommend asking them first. I didn't know it was a cash only bakery so my options were limited. read more

La Cheesecake - Was so happy after eating my gift and so sad I had no more - Bakeries Near Me - College Point, New York

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A little out of the way. But once u step in you can tell that the pastries will be tasty based on the smell.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The older lady who helped me was so patient and friendly as I tried to figure out what to older for my MIL bday. We went with the chocolate covered cheesecake with the big strawberries on top. The cheesecake was not overly sweet, while not as fluffy as other reviewers stated, it was still very smooth. You Def taste the cheese in the cheesecake. We also got the crumbcake. It was not overly sweet. The crumb part is sweet and the cake at the bottom is soft and spongy. Def will go great with cake or coffee. The shop is on Avery narrow street. Parking is a pain so don't attempt to go by urself. I will be sure to try other things. read more

When I moved to Whitestone over a year ago, La Cheesecake was at the top of my 'to try' list. It took SO long for me to get there (trying to eat healthy and such), but it was worth the wait. I came here before Christmas and the line was long, but not insane. First thing to know is: CASH ONLY. The employees here are very friendly and it just feels like an old school NY place where everyone knows everyone. I came for the Rainbow Cookie bars for a Christmas Eve and Christmas gathering and they did not disappoint. I love them, and everyone who has tried them loves them too. I grew up with denser rainbow cookies (RIP Mr. Cookie), but these are more light and fluffy. I love them both; I just haven't found a rainbow cookie I love since Mr. Cookie closed. These have the traditional marzipan taste and are extremely fresh. Not too sweet, no artificial flavors like a lot of rainbow cookies have. Just light perfection. And the chocolate is fantastic too. So happy to have found this hidden gem. Next time, I will try some cheesecake, and probably some crumb cake because that looked incredible! Prices are very fair for quality. read more

Hands down, this is my favorite bakery in New York City. Their rainbow cookies are LIFE-CHANGING. The rainbow cookie bar is essentially a rainbow cookie BRICK. You can taste the quality of the ingredients (especially the chocolate) and the texture is so light and airy. The rainbow cookies are MAGICAL and your life is not complete without trying their rainbow cookie. I love that they're old school - CASH ONLY and they have no website, it's all word-of-mouth. read more

College Point's best kept secret. Absolutely love La Cheesecake. The minis and cannolis are our fave, but the regular sized cheesecakes are always a hit at events. Staff is friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Location is small but perfect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To not: cash only and they're close for the first half of the week unless there is a big holiday. read more

Everything is made daily and the problem that you might have is: You will want to buy Everything. read more

La cheesecake is one of the best I've tasted; creamy, light and with a delicious flavor. It is never dry or heavy. They aren't cheap but to be fair the prices of cream cheese and eggs over the past 2-3 years has skyrocketed, so I do understand the price. There is a small selection of other bakery treats there but I haven't yet tried anything else except for the Linzer tart and that too was very good. If you do decide to visit the store, make sure you call ahead to see if they are open because they are closed a few days a week. Also, there is street parking only, so try and go with someone who can sit in the car as you may need to park by the fire hydrant to run in and get your goodies. read more

Best Rainbow cake Bar! I have tried many rainbow cookies and La Cheesecake, by far, best version so far. The cookie itself is soft and not dense. It looks like a huge chocolate bar with a yummy surprise inside :) read more

Went to La Cheesecake for the first time because I heard that they made the best rainbow cookies. They are my grandson's favorite and since he was turning 5, I thought I'd bring some to the party and surprise him. I didn't know that they are made into bars that you cut and serve. Afraid I'd make a mess of things, I asked at the bakery if they could cut them. No problem! They offered to cut, plate, and wrap 3 bars. In addition I ordered butter cookies which they also plated and wrapped. Make no mistake! Although the cookies look like all those cookies that are packaged and sold in supermarkets, they are far from it. They are baked on premises and are scrumptious! The rainbow cookies lived up to their reputation and made the birthday boy very happy. Thank you Stefanie and all the helpful staff at La Cheesecake. See you next time! read more

My FAVORITE cheesecake spot. Number 1 on my list. I didn't notice this gem in the neighborhood until a couple of months ago. They have single serving mini cupcake like cheesecakes and large cheesecakes and other sweets as well. I really go for the cheesecake, honestly any flavor cheesecake they have is good. The taste and flavor is very light and subtle which means I can eat a lot more of their cheesecake than any other places which could be a bad thing too! Also not the mention the price is fair. For events and birthdays I'll get an 11 inch cheesecake from here and it's only $40! The line can get long near holidays but it's so worth it. I rave about this place to all my friends! read more

I know I already wrote a review on this place but I just love it so much I can't help but want to praise this place more. Everyone who works there is so hospitable and kind, and not a single item has missed the mark. Yes they're known for their cheesecakes and rainbow bars, but you genuinely cannot go wrong with anything here. I barely venture off to Whitestone but I would to visit La Cheesecake any day. read more

Love this bakery and the rainbow chocolate bar is a hit no matter where I bring it..... everyone loves the texture and taste!

Was gifted a plain cheesecake from here and thought it was fresh, creamy, and rich but certainly not the best I've ever had. I personally prefer a more tangy and less sweet cheesecake. Oddly, the leftover slices of cheesecake tasted better on days 2 and 3. What really put me off though was the foam base/plate it was served on. I removed it right away and placed the entire cheesecake in an airtight container. read more

How have I not reviews La Cheesecake. This is my favorite bakery in NYC. They specialize in what else but cheesecake. Their NY style cheesecake is light and fluffy. It is so decadent! We usually get a plain cheesecake with fruit spreads on the side. I think cherry is our favorite. They have a ton of varieties but sometimes you need to order in advance if you want something besides plain. I was lucky enough to get an Oreo cheesecake this time. Yum! If you have read this far you deserve to know that they make the best cheesecakes but if you are coming here you must get their rainbow cookies. Three layers of delicious fluffy cake, layered with jelly and covered in chocolate. The best part is they sell them as a solid bar (about 8 inches long). read more

La Cheesecake has been on my bucket list for a while and we finally got a chance to taste it. We didn't visit them in person and our friends brought us a classic cheesecake. The cake looked perfectly baked with beautiful color. It was amazingly delicious with soft, puffy and creamy texture. It wasn't too sweet and easily to be over-eaten. We would definitely visit again for their signature cookies, turnovers and other pastries in the near future. read more

I have to say this is one of the best bakeries I've ever been to. Whenever I find a new place I like to try a couple things at a time to see what I like from there, so if I decide to come back I know exactly what to get. This is the first time I've ever been to a dessert place where every single item was freshly baked. The cheesecake bites, brownies, cookies, cupcakes & cannoli's were all fresh & soft. You can tell immediately from the first bite the food was made that morning. The service was also good. Very nice people working there! The only thing I can say that's a negative is it's a cash only business, but that's ok with me. Oh yeah & the food tastes amazing! read more

I didn't think college point had such a hidden gem. I recently moved into the area and did some strolling around with my baby and smelled something heavenly in the air. I was maybe on the corner and this bakery is halfway up the block and I could smell the aroma from a far. Upon entering this little gem you can see all the pastries on display and this huge kitchen in the background and the way each person operates. Everything is extremely fresh and made in house. The amazing lady in the front works very hard to provide and explain everything and when ordering one of their original cheesecakes you can see how they remove it from its baking tin, almost as if it was a little show. Everything here tastes amazing. Nothing is left to waste when I bring home their cakes or pastries and best part about it is that everything is extremely affordable considering inflation. read more

They say one by one you can come in buy what they have no reservations no orders put in just see it and buy it Only one problem the person that goes in before you buys 75 pies and everybody else that waits on the line in the cold pies gets best. ! And the pies you wanted are all gone by this one person who took orders from 50 people not fair hopefully you read this you don't let it happen anymore read more

Everything we tried was delicious. Cheesecake was divine and best cannolis I've ever had!

Updated review** Now I understand the rave. Maybe back then, my palate was not defined and I didn't understand what a good cheesecake tastes like. I came here and ordered a apple crumble pie, cheese cake and a few cookies. I haven't tried the cookies (they were for my husband!) but the apple crumble pie is DELICIOUS!!! Full of flavor and the crumble on top makes it so freaking good. The cheesecake was also so fluffy and delightful! It's not overly sweet. I can now understand why it's such a favorite in the neighborhood! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Spotless bakery.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Friendly staff. Cheesecake fresh and delish. Found it by chance. Only wish they had coffee...

Searched through Reddit and reviews for a good local cheesecake spot (tried all the popular places in the city already) and came across la cheesecake. They are only open a few days of the week and their special cheesecake needs to be preordered ahead of time. So sadly didn't get to try the brownie cheesecake or chocolate chip cheesecake. Got a large plain cheesecake, all the mini cheesecake they had (they only ordered the fruit toppings for the mini cheesecake) as well as the chocolate chip pecan square. Everything was delicious especially the pecan square. read more

I end up driving by this bakery because i was looking for a place to eat dinner and I stopped when i saw a the sign at the front door for pastries. I bought a box of pastries with mini cheesecake, classic fruit tart, mini lobster tale with Ricotta filling and lemon glazed cookies. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Would i go back, probably not. All the pastries tasted very similar, high sugar content, the cheesecake was very soft and too sweet. The pastry cream was ok at best, definitely had better cheesecake at other places. The lemon cookies were overly sweet and the glazed was just too much. Price wise, yeah it was reasonable but not enough to get me to go back. I was expecting large slices of cheesecake but they only sale mini cheesecake. read more

If you've never been here before, you are truly missing out. They have the best cheesecake and sweets around. It's so popular in this town that when it comes to holidays the line is wrapped around the corner 2 or 3 times. It's a family favorite. They are open from Thursday to Sunday. So Monday-Wednesday they are closed. But they are open to 6PM usually. They have decent prices and street parking. The staff is always friendly and helpful. You can order anything from a cake to a cheesecake. Tarts. Brownies. Cookies. Cannolis. You name it they probably have it. You can call in advanced and get a cake made up. Which are also very delicious. Come on down and give it a try. 10/10. You will not be disappointed. read more
