After seeing such good reviews on here, we decided to pick a cheesecake today for a birthday gathering we were hosting. We were greeted warmly when we entered the shop and were immediately given samples to try! Yay! We tried 3 varieties-- pineapple, sweet potato and strawberry-- all were delicious but we decided to stick with the original. Five stars for this cheesecake! Very rich cream cheese taste with a thick graham cracker crust. Mmmm. Our guests RAVED how great it was. I've found my go-to dessert. So happy to hear they will be opening a second location in Farmington. read more

Absolutely delicious cheesecake AND warm, friendly, helpful service. I'll be back..in fact...I may become a too frequent regular!!

I saw Peteete's Cheesecake featured on FOX2 Morning News and couldn't stop thinking about cheesecake. I went and ordered the sweet potato cheesecake. It was the best cheesecake I had ever tasted with creamy, sweet, and a hint of bitter all in one fabulous bite. Will be choosing Peteetes for all my deserts. read more

Best cheesecake in Michigan. Period. Awesome different flavors, free samples and nice people. And sweet potato cheesecake. What more could you want? I just wish they were open later. read more

The most AWESOME cheesecake I have ever had! My husband stumbled across this place driving by & we had to stop in. We happened to stop by just after they closed, but they happily helped us anyway! We had samples of the original & the sweet potato cheesecake. Both are delicious! We purchased a whole Apple Crumb for our family, a slice of Oreo, a cheesecake brownie, and a cupcake! They are all fantastic! It's hard to pick a favorite! I highly recommend this place & we will surely be returning for more! The people there are so kind & welcoming! I look forward to my next visit! :) I can't wait to pick up desserts for my friends at the office too! Thank you! OH! Pricing is pretty comparable to any restaurant dessert, but this was much better than any cheesecake you can get anywhere else! read more

Excellent customer service every time I went there! I've had several different flavors and haven't had a bad one yet. Their pricing for desserts are beyond reasonable!! I would definitely recommend. And if they have it in stock, try the banana pudding cheesecake! read more

Real good cheesecake and a lot of choices. I like the 1/2 size cakes, that way I can get two different cakes for the price of one.

I went to this place a week ago and it was amazing! In fact I have been trying to get back there every since but all this darn snow isn't letting me. The sweet potato cheesecake was really good...it just melted in my mouth. It makes a fool out of any cheesecake I've had from the Cheesecake Factory. Can't wait to go back and try the cheesecake ice cream! read more

It was a slice of heaven you need to try this place out very friendly family owned establishment. Every bite was better than the last I mean you can't get better cheesecake. I recommend that you take the time to go and try them out I bet you will be back for more because I know I will and I stay all the way Taylor, MI but it is well worth the drive. read more

I can't imagine a more wonderful cheesecake, perfect in every way. One of the partners was serving up charm and cheesecake when I went in, and we tried several flavors. I picked sweet potato, and also got a slice of pineapple, and those were both heavenly. If the law of consumer demand rules, this place should jump right off the charts and lines should be out the door. YUM! Worth a trip even if you aren't close to Nine Mile east of Coolidge. read more

This might be the best cheesecake I've ever had. There are a lot of flavors to choose from. The Red Velvet cheesecake was moist and creamy just melted in your mouth! The guys at the counter were super friendly and although it was my first time there I felt like a long time customer! read more

When aliens do eventually invade the earth, it will be for the sweet potato cheesecake. It's sublime.

My mom loves cheesecake so I brought her here to pick a few slices. We sampled sweet potato & chocolate and blissfully licked our tasting spoons. We both left with 4 slices a piece to sample at home. The customer service was as good as the cheesecake! Awesome spot! read more

THE BEST CHEESECAKE and YEAST ROLLS AROUND! I love Peteet's I have ordered my holiday cheesecakes and rolls from here for 2 years now and I am always very happy with the quality and taste. The service is great they are very friendly. I got all my friends hooked on Peteet's. They sell buy the slice, half and whole cakes. Check them out. read more

I love this place. The young lady who helped me on Saturday 11/26 was an absoulute sweetheart and I would definitely go back again. My only thing is that I wish they had the slices in a sugar free version. I enjoy coming here and will be back. read more

I don't even like cheesecake and I eat their cheesecake!! Their cheesecake is so rich and creamy. The taste is consistent and the quality is always top notch. I recently ordered five cheesecakes for a bridal shower and everyone fell in love!!! My favorites are the five flavor and cappuccino. The strawberry vodka is nice as well. When you get a chance pop in and grab a slice you will definitely be back for more. read more

Best cheesecake ever . Love the flavors, love the service. You will not be disappointed if you feel so inclined to try this place. I loved the turtle. Don't ask. Just try it!!! read more

I tried the Lemon and Cherry Slice of Cheesecake. The crust was soft/moist. The slices were Ok. I will go back to try different flavors. NOW the Smell of the Rolls were Awesome!! The Slices were Again OK read more

I do enjoy the desserts from Peteet's however the taste to me is average and the price is above average. I've visited the store quite a few times and each time the young lady at the front counter lacks customer service skills. With this being my repeated experience I wouldn't put this place up for a recommendation if someone asked where they could get good cheese cake. read more

Amazing cheesecake! We tried the Key Lime, Cookies and Cream, and Pumpkin Cheesecake yesterday. It was amazing! Can't wait to come back with our frequent card. Staff was very friendly. read more

I love this place. Very Friendly staff, Multiple Delicious Flavors. My favorite is strawberry delight. I drive 40 minutes every time. I recommend them & the prices are affordable. Clean environment to. Keep up the good work!!! read more

Great service and even better cheesecake I had strawberry and my husband had turtle. Both were AMAZING! We drove about 40 mins to this location in oak park but it was worth the drive! If you love cheesecake you will love this place. They have a large assortment of cheesecake and the service was fast and friendly! read more

Peteet's Famous Cheesecakes - Strawberry Cheesecake - Bakeries Near Me - Oak Park, Michigan

See all

I was referred by an old co-worker. I ordered a slice of sweet potato cheesecake, it was a very small portion. It looked like someone sliced a cheesecake and then sliced the slices in half. It was ok, not how it was raved about. My friend ordered a red velvet one and said the same thing. Maybe it was an off day compared to the other reviews, I would give it another chance. read more

Went here for the first time a couple days ago.. I walked in to find a dimly lit family-style looking place. The lady behind the counter was all smiles, and helpful! I ended up with some cheesecake brownies (damn you free samples), and half of a red velvet cheesecake.. Wow. That about sums it up.. Everything is great, but be sure you have either some milk, coffee, or a stiff drink to wash it down.. It's RICH! Overall Excellent, but the store could use some renovation. read more

I love Cheesecake, so I feel like a connoisseur, and Peteets has made it to the top of my list. The choices are amazing; the quality is superb!! Love this place and highly recommend it; will definitely make repeated trips for more. read more

Ok, so I went to Peteet's today to grab a slice of Sweet Potato Cheesecake. It was amazing! The pieces of sweet potato in the cake surprised me and felt kind of strange in my mouth. It didn't take away from the taste of the dessert though. I think if I had a second piece, the shredded sweet potato's wouldn't have bothered me as much. Maybe it just takes some getting used to. $3.75 for a slice isn't that bad considering how rich this dessert is. I was also happy that they allowed me to pay for the slice with my debit card. Some small retail shops don't like people using their cards unless they spend a certain amount. The woman that served me was very nice as well. I would recommend it. read more

I normally don't write reviews but I had to come write one after having the cheesecake paczki's. I ate 2 in one sitting! They were delicious! I saw one other review about them not being liked because they were custard filled but advertised as cheesecake.... I don't know if that person expected a whole piece of solid cheesecake wrapped in dough? It was CHEESECAKE custard. I could taste the cheesecake! If you actually like paczki's, these by far have the best filling. Actually, everything I've ever tasted from Peteet's Famous Cheesecake has exceeded expectation. I come all of the way from Taylor, MI just for their desserts. Clean, beautiful stores, friendly, professional staff, the product is great. Everyone I know loves it. I'm a fan! read more

Randomly found this place on Apple maps when I happened to be in the area. Small little store in a strip mall and I decided to stop in. The cashier was wonderful. I told her it was my first time there and she treated me with the same hospitality you would your own family. I ended buying four different flavor pieces and let me tell you, I should have bought more. DELICIOUS. The Five Flavor and Strawberry Vodka were out of this world. Super creamy, lots of flavor, great crust! Would highly recommend. I do not live in the area but have made more than one trip back. read more

I was expecting to be wowed by the flavor in their sweet potato cheesecake. I mean it's okay, but certainly not worth the $15.25 I paid for a half a cheesecake. I mean there just was no intensity or richness in the flavor. I love sweet potato pie, and I love cheesecake, but this combination, and lack of richness, doesn't make me want to pay that much ever again. I'll take a good piece of sweet potato pie, or cheesecake, over this, any day of the week. In all fairness, they were offering sample tastes of their superman cheesecake, which does have that "wow factor"; so in retrospect, I wish I'd gotten that instead. read more

Love at first bite! I tried the five flavorcheesecake and it was orgasmic! It had lemon, rum, coconut, almond and vanilla flavors. I liked how they had samples and I could buy slices of each flavor. Thankfully, I live in Oak Park, so my "fix" won't be far away! read more

Visited here for the first time today after stumbling across a flyer at my job. Upon arriving at the quaint store front, I was greeted ever-so warmly by a man who i discover later is a owner of the establishment...he offered me samples which I graciously accepted while he went to prepare my order. Let me say I was not prepared for those delicious little morsels. Made me want to holler out and add more things on to my order but I fought that temptation. I loved the atmosphere. There are a few dining tables and chairs to sit and enjoy the delicious treats. Needless to say, i purchased 2 slices and finished one before i even got to the freeway!!!!! I am in heaven!..................Overall an excellent experience..maybe a little high on the pricing but then again, you can really put a price on great cheesecake! read more

Didn't know this place existed but worth the drive if you're looking to pick up a dessert for a special occasion. The vodka strawberry cheesecake was really good but then again so were the other four types I tried! read more

So delicious! This place is owned and operated by the kindest mother-son duo. I look forward to going back there not only for the cheesecake, but also their friendly service. All of the cheesecakes that I've tried were fantastic and tasted very homemade and fresh. I've tried a lot, but I haven't even made a dent in the variety of flavors they offer. It's nice because they offer cheesecake cupcakes which allows you to pick and choose different flavors to make up your dozen/half dozen. Can't wait to try more! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE !! Every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas I get a Gluten free sweet potato cheesecake and a regular plain cheesecake. IThey are sooooo good ! Their rolls are outta site too !! read more

great sweet potato pie cheesecake!!! on Tuesdays they sell donuts which seem very dry Also, I wish the cheesecakes weren't frozen before being sold. But the Sweet Potato Pie Cheesecake makes up for it all!!!!! read more

Tried their Pineapple Cheesecake today. It was delicious. They are so welcoming and friendly. You can also sample the different flavors. I tasted the Apple Pie and the Sweet Potato. Both tasted great! The price is reasonable -$3.50/slice. I had just paid $4 for a slice from the nearby corned beef place, which was not nearly as good. read more

Went to the West Bloomfield location to get the Cheesecake packzi's they were advertising at the road for at least a week. I asked which were cheesecake and was told they are all cheesecake, some with added flavors. So I purchased 6: 3 plain, 2 strawberry and 1 apple to the tune of $9.50! Packzi's are about $6 a dozen at Kroger! When I got to my destination, I took out a plain cheesecake packzi's to savor and enjoy! One bite and I thought I would be sick! There was no cheesecake inside of the packzi! It was custard that didn't taste even close to cheesecake! Did I mention that I detest custard? I couldn't get it out of my mouth quick enough! The strawberry one was tasted by someone else who was also disappointed. The strawberry was some pasty stuff mixed into the disgusting custard! Nothing like what a packzi should be!! I called the store to let them know of my displeasure and was told that the filling is in fact, custard!!! Then why do they advertise and tell customers that it is cheesecake? I was told it is processed down cheesecake! Seriously?? They were all thrown in the trash! $9.50 wasted! Will I ever go back to this place again? That answer is ... not in this lifetime! read more

There are too many restaurants/bakeries/bars that are mediocre. I never understand why someone who doesn't know good taste would open a store - Peteet's is exactly the opposite of all that and exactly a store that needs to exist!! The best cheesecake I've ever had. The crust is perfectly thick, the cheesecake perfectly not too dense not too fluffy - and tons of flavor and tons of choices. Also top notch is the service - I really hope that this place survives... if word gets out I think it could be a "famous" Detroit staple. As for price - a Baskin Robbins ice cream cake can cost from $15-$30 and these cheesecakes are FAR FAR superior to those, so I think the price is on point. I can't say enough good things. Go there. read more

this place will make anyone a cheesecake lover. easily the creamiest, smoothest most delicious cheesecake. everything we've tried has been perfect. read more

Yelp defines 5 stars as "Whoohoo! As good as it gets!" so yes, this is 5 stars. The sweet potato cheesecake is as good of a slice of cheesecake as you will ever eat. Anywhere. Rich, creamy, full of flavor and generally wonderful - I've never had a piece of cheesecake that was BETTER. I've had others that are as good sure (there are some amazing cheesecakes in this world), but I've never had a piece that was actually "better" than this. WORLD class cheesecake right here at a local family owned joint in Metro Detroit and it always makes me happy to support local independents. As a little bonus detail, this was at the new West Bloomfield store - I called earlier in the day to check and see if they had any whole sweet potato cheesecakes and they only had the gluten-free kind (which in itself is a bonus that they have gluten-free sweet potato cheesecakes but that's not what I wanted yesterday). They did say that they had plenty of others though. I was slightly disappointed because I was bringing one to a friend's house and I needed one yesterday and I really wanted sweet potato. When I showed up a few hours later to pick one up they had them! They said that since they had calls for sweet potato they had someone run a few over from the Oak Park store. I wasn't expecting there to be any so I was pleasantly surprised. Pretty cool. Also the WB store is open until 8 - an hour later than the Oak Park store (at least on Tues-Fri as far as I know). Not cheap - 27 dollars for a whole cheesecake, but then again it's NOT a cheap cheesecake. As I said it's a high end creation and after you eat it you'll completely forget about what you paid for it. If they were too much less I'd be eating them every day and then I'd be fat. read more
