It feels like I haven't been here in more than a decade, I am sure it probably is the case, and after coming here, really having no expectations and just wanting a good slice of cheesecake, I walked into an odd, fun, experience with my wife. It's a place that has been here, for what seems forever, where you talk about it, and it brings back memories of simplier times, where you kind of remember when you were here last time, and yet you don't, but you know that it has been awhile, and that was the situation with coming here with my wife, the place feels..... the same, as in, the colors, the chairs, the floor, everything, and yet.... that is part of the charm, the dark wood and colors, the 'old' aesthetic, and yet the only change is 'you'... the one coming here with way more years of experience (on what ... that is on 'you' as well) and all felt like a time capsule. We ordered a slice of their classic slice of cheesecake, with their strawberries, sauce, fresh whipped cream, and added walnuts on top, as per the person working the till. We took our number and sat on the newer side (I do not know when they added the right side, but I know it wasn't there for me the last time I was here) and sitting what felt like a minute, our plate of sweet goodness arrived. Something about this simple piece just hit the spot, how it was made, the simple yet beautiful presentation of it all, the right amount of chill in temperature, where it wasn't too cold, it just hit the spot, and the sweetness... was perfect, nothing overly sweet but just right... and that is why this place is still around, for all the stuff you say, said, did, in whatever timeframe of your life that you were here, after one bite you are brought back to that time and your re-live it. It was a great way to end the night, and I hope to come back here sooner than the over a decade it took me to enter this place again. If you want a staple of Vancouver, this is the place.... might I say the best cheesecake in Vancouver... I would have to give my personal award to this place... thank you, and until next time.
I always love the Cheesecake etc. it has a history dated back to my teenage years. The restaurant has always been cozy and the atmosphere was warm and spacious. Their cheesecake is one of the best in Vancouver and it has never been disappointed. The selections were fair and brings a balance to their menu. They even have live bands on the weekends. Love this place.
If you're looking for a cozy, late-night dessert spot in Vancouver, Cheesecake Etc. is the perfect hidden gem. Tucked just south of the Granville Bridge, this charming café is full of character, with a warm, inviting vibe and offers live jazz on most days. Unfortunately we did have live music on our visit but we will be back for that experience. The cheesecake here is truly something special--light, creamy, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. We tried the classic with strawberries and whipped cream, and the cheesecake of the day--tiramisu. They were both so good. I wish the tiramisu was offered on a regular basis as I feel it would be popular. They also offer other flavors like chocolate and matcha, which I can't wait to go back and try. The atmosphere is intimate and nostalgic, making it a great place for date nights or quiet catch-ups with friends. It's open late (7 PM to 1 AM), which is a huge plus when those late-night dessert cravings hit. Highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't yet--it's a true Vancouver treasure!
Cheesecake Etc. is a cosy and romantic spot perfect for a date night! We loved the live piano music and the wide selection of cheesecakes. The tiramisu cheesecake, a daily special, was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend for a charming and tasty evening out!
Very good cheesecake! I originally wanted to visit because I heard there is live music/jazz. Unfortunately, the Sunday night we went, the musicians were on holiday. There were still busy regardless. I do love that the menus is just cheesecake. Just about every type and you can customize your toppings! There's also a special cheesecake of the day, ours was tiramisu which was so fluffy and glorious. It did not feel too heavy. The strawberry topping on the original was just as good!! Will come back on a night with live music.
One of my favourite cheesecake places in Vancouver! It just tastes really good! It's also a really cool spot to dine inside if you're looking for a night out in town. I like the original the best, but adding the strawberry is a nice compliment too.
It's been ages since I've been here. We were nearby, so decided to give it another try. The place was packed with people, and there was a long line, but luckily we arrived before it got too busy. We ordered both the matcha cheesecake and the original. The texture of the original was smooth, but the matcha one was just okay. I also ordered a latte, which paired well with the sweetness of the cheesecakes. We thought they would be playing some live jazz but it was a recording.
This place continues to bring back university memories every time I step through the door. Over the past years, they have expanded and why not. The place is casual, but there is ambiance. Tables are spread apart and lighting is dimmed. There's a grand piano at the center of the room. This place is great to catch up with a friend or friends. They only serve three types of cheesecake so they have to be exceptional......and they are. The foundation of the cheesecake is dense, but not overly. It has a great feel and texture to it and you can customize it with various toppings. They also offer a variety of drinks to go with the cheesecake.
If you're looking for an excellent date night dessert spot, Cheesecake Etc. is the place to go. The highlight of this charming establishment is their fresh-made cheesecake, where you can personalize your dessert by choosing both the cheesecake and the fruit topping. On our visit, we indulged in the strawberry cheesecake, which was perfectly tart and sweet--a delightful treat for the taste buds. The matcha cheesecake was also a bit of a miss for me as it didn't really taste like matcha, was denser than the original cheesecake, and felt like it needed some kind of sweetness (fresh fruit) with it. In addition to their delectable cheesecakes, Cheesecake Etc. serves a variety of hot drinks, including teas and coffees, making it a cozy spot to unwind. Whether you're ending a dinner date or just craving a sweet treat, Cheesecake Etc. promises a delightful experience.
Craved a late night snack and came here. Never disappoints. You get what you want, no frills.
We came right about 1 hour after it opened. Parking is insane and if you miss the turn light, prepare to drive 7 blocks just to make a uturn. The cheesecake isn't all that, it's mushy and has a sour taste to it. If you prefer your cheesecake soft and subtle, this is it.
Cheesecake Etc. stands as a longstanding dessert cafe with a wealth of memories for me. Following dinners, drinks, or nights out with friends, this has been our go-to spot to conclude the weekend. I hadn't visited this place since the pandemic began, so one weekend, I decided to return. The craving for cheesecake after dinner was too tempting to resist. What we ordered : Matcha cheesecake and Tiramisu cheesecake, and both were enjoyable. However, it seems that either the chef or the recipe has undergone a change. The cheesecake texture I once knew resembled whipped cream--so light yet still creamy. This was the reason I used to frequent this place after dinner or drinks with a group of friends. As time has passed, things have changed. Nevertheless, I appreciate that the shop continues to run its business admirably, allowing me to revisit and reminisce. However, please do not misunderstand. The cheesecake was still delicious with a smooth texture that I enjoyed. It's just that the cheesecake I was accustomed to seems to have evolved or changed over time. I am particularly fond of the ambiance at this place. The dark, antique-style furniture and interior have consistently retained their charm. I've heard that live piano music is offered here. I plan to visit when live piano music is available next time.

I love the ambiance, it's really cozy and especially fun for a late night visit. The cheesecake itself was not my favorite, because although it was super creamy, I usually prefer cheesecake with a crust. I would go again just for the vibes though read more

Amazing cheesecake place! The place has a nice vibe with amazing cheesecakes. The blueberry sauce and toasted pecans is my fav. The best thing is you can customise for the choice of your sauce and nuts and the bade cheesecake flavour. Definitely worth it! read more

Another amazing time at Cheesecake Etc. Nice relaxing live trio with Latte and world famous cheesecake! This is our goto place for dessert for a romantic evening out or with friends or visitors. You won't be disappointed! read more
Very nice cheesecake. Just tried the original cheesecake with raspberry and these two went super well with each other. The citrusy flavor of raspberry nicely toned down the sweetness of raspberry. The ambience is super cool as well as their service. read more
Cheesecake etc is definitely still deserving of praises for their cheesecakes after all these years. I love how this place is consistent with its classic original flavor cheesecake and that it opens late. Service here is simple - order, pay, seat yourself and your order will be brought to your table. Place is quite spacious so lots of choices and seating area to suit your preference. I enjoy dining in when they have evening live performances. This place has chilled ambiance and is great for casual dates. Nice choice to catch up with pals with good dessert portion to share and classic dessert to satisfy your sweet tooth after dinner. My favorite cheesecake to order is the original flavor with blueberries. The have different speciality flavors on special menu and my personally favorite is still their original cheesecake flavor. I have tried their tiramisu specialty cheesecake (as shown in photo) and I still wanted to order another slice of original flavor after the tiramisu cheesecake. Guess that shows how much I love classic cheesecake :) You can also order a whole cake to go. It's a convenient option if you need to bring a whole cake for potluck or a house party celebration. read more
Ahhh cheesecake ... some are made great, some are just crappy & some are just simply outstanding! It's been years since I last popped into Cheesecake Etc. CE has been in Vancouver for decades ... talk about staying power! Located at the foot of the Granville Bridge, it used to be a stopover when heading out of downtown Vancouver as it was usually open till 1am. Who doesn't crave cheesecake in the midnight hour!?! I was a little hesitant about trying it again but I said heck why not!? Glad I did! This spot could really be a cool late night hangout honestly. I love the jazzy themed pictures, the piano in the corner & small stage. As things return to normal (whatever that means right!?) as the pandemic winds down, CE will have live music playing again. It's actually quite big inside & could easily sit large parties. Being slightly chicken to experiment with other flavours of cheesecake, I stuck with the Original Cheesecake with strawberries & I loved it! It was rather tiny but it definitely hit the spot in my belly! Bear in mind they do not have a humongous selection of cheesecakes to offer as say in comparison to the Cheesecake Factory down south. However, I do like the vibe here - a kinda 'speakeasy' but with no alcohol. I will go back & try other cheesecakes as well as the coffee & tea. Operating hours are daily 7pm till 1am. read more
Vibes are nice, service is great, cheesecake is... surprisingly not. Not sure why it's crustless but that was a huge miss. If the cheesecake was exceptional then it would make sense as they're trying to emphasize the actual filling. But the original was satisfactory while the macha was too dry and old. However it's a vibe and staff were very friendly and quick. If there's a live pianist it's definitely an intimate hang out. Food: 4/10 Service: 7/10 Experience: 7/10 Value: 6/10 read more

I had heard so much about this place and I finally picked up 6 slices to go. There were empty seats on a Thursday night (close to midnight). I tried the original cheesecake first (no whipped cream or other toppings), and it was so good. I wasn't completely blown away, but Cheesecake Etc definitely has a place among the best cheesecakes I've had. It tasted very similar to a New York cheesecake (i.e. cream cheese dominant), but had a texture that couldn't be more different. It was very light and airy, almost yogurt like. I immediately devoured a second slice. I also took a bite of my friend's original cheesecake with strawberry sauce, and thought the sauce ruined it. I ordered for myself a third slice - chocolate cheesecake with chocolate sauce on top. Just as I expected, it was more of a chocolate cake than a cheesecake. I was taken aback a little by the "chocolate sauce", which tasted and felt like chocolate buttercream, as opposed to the chocolate sauce you'd see on a sundae. I'd rate the original cheesecake without toppings a 9/10, the one with a 7/10, and the chocolate one with chocolate sauce a 5/10. The matcha one in the photo was my friend's, and given how much I dislike matcha, I didn't feel the slightest temptation to try it. Being from NYC, I'm spoiled by the amazing and varied cheesecake options it offers, and still I believe Cheesecake Etc would easily hold its own there. read more
I went here with my friend A on December 16th. We were craving some dessert after our dinner, and decided to go to Cheesecake Etc since it was close by. Cheesecake Etc is much quieter than before. It was always popular and packed with young people back in pre-Covid times. Great spot for dates and hangout. The couple who owned this place used to play piano and sing one time I visited back then. Now it's just a quieter dessert cafe while people come in and out to get take outs. I had the original cheesecake with strawberry sauce ($7.25). It was pretty good. Service was fast. Loved this soft creamy goodness! I realized it's best to eat this sooner than taking home via transit. Try this place you won't regret it! read more

Delicious creamy cheesecakes of different flavours to choose from and sauce to go with it. My favourite is the original with either strawberry or blueberry sauce and recommend it for first timers. Plenty of drink as well and whole cheese cake is available for take out only. As someone who is fond of cheese cake I would say that Cheesecakeetc is a favourite go-to, for its original rich cakes and beverages. Ambiance is serene with sometimes live piano. Though recently their was none. Went their recently and Covid19 precautions are well practiced from tables to line ups. The restaurant opens at 7pm but maybe go a little bit early as there is always line up before opening. Price is just right and service is wonderful. read more

Ah what an interesting cheesecake. This was my first time trying Cheesecake Etc. They've a few flavors with a lot of customizations Interesting cheesecake with no graham cracker crust. Very fluffy and tasty cheesecake. We got their original cheesecake with blueberry topping. I'll definitely visit again! read more
My favourite place for cheesecakes for the past 20 years. On a typical beautiful evening, a line up forms around 6:40pm for the 7pm opening. Yes, I have line up before and well worth it for an evening of great desserts, music, coffee and laughs with friends. Once this unnormalness is over, I hope Cheesecake Etc will still be here for many more years to come. Today was a beautiful day and nothing is better than finishing the day with the original cheesecake with strawberry sauce ($7) at a nearby park with a view of the sunset. The cheesecake and sauce are not overly sweet and blends perfectly with the creamy cake. The protocol for takeout and social distancing is well done here. Felt completely safe for myself and the staff. I'll be back! read more
I've visited this place twice with two different experiences but overall, I am a fan. The first time, I ordered the original cheesecake with strawberry and it was amazing. The matcha cheesecake was not as good and I am speaking as a big fan of matcha. The second time I came here, it was around 8pm on a Sunday and the cheesecake was still partly frozen. The server didn't come around at all so I didn't get to ask them about it. It definitely changed the taste and creaminess of the cheesecake and I was greatly disappointed because I was raving about it the entire time to a friend that has never been before. Also note, this place is cash or Canadian debit card only. I mention this because I tried to use my debit card (wells fargo, chase, bank of america) and it wasn't accepted. I had to walk down a few blocks to withdraw money from the ATM. Overall, I would try this place again. read more
A long-lasting dessert place. They specialize in cheesecake. I like that they are so specialized, but I like my cheesecake a bit firmer than they do it here (so -1 star). However, the place is open late, and has a cozy vibe inside. During some hours they have live piano music. This is place is great for a date. read more

The cheesecake here is soooo good - great dessert place after dinner, and good for both friends gathering as well as date night. There's jazz music playing in the background and the cheesecake is very light and melts in your mouth. Also, all cakes come with whipped cream unless otherwise requested :p We ordered the Original Cheesecake with strawberry fruit toppings. The strawberry is so fresh and has the right amount of sweetness to add to the cheesecake. Also ordered the Matcha Cheesecake, and I especially enjoyed the flavor with whipped cream. For drinks, we ordered the eggnog latte which was a holiday special. Quite pleasant as well, all in all a great experience! read more
I am actually very impressed with their protocals right now. You walk in, see a menu on the table, give your name and number up front, order and pay up front, get seated. They leave your order on a tray on a table nearby so that you serve yourself. This is probably the most socially distanced restaurant I have been in. They have tables spread far apart. The service is still friendly. The cheesecake is excellent as always. There is tons of space between patrons. I am sure glad this place is open and able to wonderfully follow protocals. read more

First of all, this is a dimly lit place, sometimes there's even live piano; overall it sets a romantic atmosphere. They also have many seatings and a couple of bigger group tables. I do think they have one of the best cheesecakes. Even though there are many types of cheesecakes out there, I'd say the ones here focus on the heavier side. Heavy in that the cheese flavour is heavy, but overall texture is on the lighter side. To put things in a bigger picture, it is definitely heavier than Japanese-type cheesecakes, but lighter than the classic New York cheesecakes. On the menu, there are a variety of flavours such as strawberries, blueberries, toasted pecan, or even chocolate cheesecake. However, I simply enjoy the original cheesecake simply on its own. It is topped with house-made whipped cream which I found complemented the cheesecake well (even though I don't usually like whipped cream). It would be a bonus if they had a graham cracker layer on the bottom.. If you don't like cheesecake, there isn't anything else here for you besides the drinks. read more
Looking for a late night snack? Do you have craving for cheesecake? Well look no further! When I was in Vancouver, I had that craving at night and my friends took me here. At first from the outside, I thought it was a bar with the dim lit atmosphere but that is what adds to the vibe of this place. We rolled into the place and it was a place suitable for family, chills and dates. I had ordered the traditional blueberry cheesecake while my friends got the matcha version. Unfortunately the cheesecakes don't have the graham base crunch...but it their desserts have more emphasis on the cake itself. The cake wasn't too sweet but heavily creamy in a good way. May your cheesecake cravings be fulfilled. -Vinny read more

My favorite cheesecake of all times. It has been open since I was a kid, and I kept comeback to it because the flavors and creamy texture that felt like a cloud that melts in the mouth stay the same. If you like a light cream, crustless cheesecake that's not too sweet and is a little tangy, it would be just a perfect way to wrap up your evening or date. This one will certainly make fond memories! It's almost angelic. ;) read more
Can't believe it's taken me this long to visit this local establishment. I'm not a fan of cheesecake because it's too dense and rich for me but I love how creamy theirs is. It's great having places in town open late that aren't necessarily pubs. Always down for a spontaneous evening treat at cheesecake etc! On our most recent visit, we tried the egg nog cheesecake on special feature and we thought it was good. They take orders and payment up front. Service is great and friendly. Minus one star because the hot chocolate was lukewarm and not hot at all. read more
