    I heard about this place and happened to walk by it on a stroll around the area. So glad I waited in line and got the classic basque cheesecake! It was simple and delicious and super friendly and patient service.

    I desperately wanted to try a basque cheesecake for the first time so we came here. It's a small shop so you will have to wait outside but it's worth it! We ordered the classico and omg, I went to heaven with that first bite. The cheesecake is very light and creamy. It is salty which brings the textures and flavors together. I endes up finishing the entire slice quickly amd it was satisfying without

    Tourist here, take with a grain of salt, but I was recommended to come here by a friend who lives in Barcelona and loved it. She told me that everyone talks about JonCake and that there's always a line- I can see why. This place sells artisan cheesecakes whole or by the slice. The cheesecakes are cut when you order to eat on the go, and they are so good. Ambiance is that of a tiny bakery where you walk in and order at the counter, there's no room to sit inside and eat. Set some time aside to wait in the line and order a slice.

    We got there an hour before closing and waited 30 mins in line. The staff was patient, friendly, and service was quick. We got the small Classic cheesecake and we thought it was okay. It was not worth waiting in line for. I don't see what the hype is about. You can also order the cheesecakes on Doordash as well.

    guys, i've been thinking about this cheesecake since i ate it, months ago. it's a dream. it's savory, with a whisper of sweet, burnt sugar. it's light and tastes like cream and is refreshing, while still being smokey, funky, decadent cheesy. it's the perfect cheesecake, and i think joncake has sufficiently ruined me in enjoying any other cheesecake. happily. service was efficient for how many folks were lined up before they opened the door. i love how they slice/price to buy, too. it's a great idea.

    Honestly one of the best cheesecake I have ever had. Usually it is made with cream cheese so it is more on the sweet side. These are made with real cheese so it is a little bit salty. The texture is still like the typical cheesecake. Super long line; we had to wait around 1.5 hours to finally get the cheesecake.

    As with many spots advertised to tourists, it can be a hit or miss... so trust me when I say JONCAKE was 1000% a HIT!!! This was the best Basque style cheesecake we had during our stay in the beautiful Catalunya region and it's safe to say I've been dreaming about since returning home to the US. Leave all you think you know about cheesecake at the door because this will completely redefine the way you think of the beloved dessert. It's an artisinal style cheesecake so not your traditional cream cheese - it's made with a rich mix of decadent cheeses which contributes to its slightly savory touch. They offer a variety of delicious flavors but we stuck with the classic which I'd highly recommend to everyone. You have the option to purchase a small cake (which we did on our first trip as it was all they had left an hour before closing) but you can also buy per slice which they price by weight (we did this the second time around). Line moves pretty fast so do not be discouraged (though I'd advise to come by around late afternoon a few hours prior to closing). The interior itself is small with no seating, just a place to order for to-go. This is WORTH THE HYPE! I can't wait for my next trip to Barcelona to visit them again :)

    BEST BASQUE BURNT CHEESECAKE I HAD IN MY LIFE! Worth the trip! I tried original and Brie, and wow the Brie cheesecake was so delicious. They sell by pound which is very interesting, I should've gotten smaller slices so I can try their whole menu. But no doubt I'll be back!

    This was the best cheesecake i've ever had! The texture of the cake was smooth and creamy. The cheesecake had that slight burned/caramely flavor that made it super tasty. The service was amazing and the staff was really friendly when explaining the different flavors. The store was cute but very small so we had to wait outside for a while. Overall it was definitely worth it and a MUST if you're in the area.

    OMG. This was just heaven. If you want that Basque traditional burnt cheesecake, go here. It's one of my favorite desserts of all time, so to eat it in Barcelona was a dream come true and it totally lived up to my expectation. It's a pretty small storefront, only a few people can come another time. It has a few flavor choices. I think there was chocolate and a few others but I got traditional. It is so good but definitely an acquired taste if you don't like really rich, creamy, cheesy flavors that are sweet then this might not be for you BUT IF YOU WANT A DELICIOUS AND UNIQUE DESSERT EXPERIENCE, THEN GET A SLICE FROM HERE. I bought this and ate it while I walked down to the beach and have never felt more idyllic in my life.

    Excellent cheese cakes. We had the classic and chocolate. Service was fast when you enter the store. The price for two slices was 25euros based on our size selection. They charge by the weight.

    I saw a video of this place and decided to go after I tried some tapas from the market. As I turn the corner, I saw a line to the edge of the building and was hesitant on waiting. Thank God I did. The wait was about 30 minutes since they allow 3-4 ppl at a time. Apparently you can order online but I wasn't aware. As I entered, I saw thick cut squares of brownies and since my weakness are brownies I got one as well. I ordered the classic slice of cheesecake and a brownie. To be honest, I didn't have huge expectations from it. It just looked like a baked cheesecake. I found a seat, took the slice out and took a single bite. MADRE. MIA. My taste buds were shocked. I had no idea it was so creamy and flavorful. The crust was a crunchy surprise yet it complimented the creaminess of the cake. The best cheesecake I have ever had! Do yourself a favor and order a whole cake. You are welcome.

    I was not expecting to find a good cheese cake in Spain. This is one of the kind. If you are in town, you definitely need to go try. You won't regret it. Specially their classic cheesecake. Love it and highly recommended.
