I recently visited Uncle Cheesecake in High Point and really enjoyed hearing the story behind the business. The owner shared that the idea started because he couldn't find cheesecake around the Triad that he really loved, so he started baking his own. After making them for friends and hearing constant encouragement, he decided to turn it into a business. It's always interesting hearing how local businesses get started, and this one felt very organic and community driven. He's even appeared on Food Network shows like Holiday Baking Championship and Chopped, which has helped bring visitors from out of state to High Point just to try the cheesecake. Overall it was a great visit, and it was nice learning more about how the business began. I love seeing the high point mural on the wall it really added to the ambiance! read more

We arrived at 1:30 PM on Sunday, but the business was closed. Before making the 1.5 HOUR drive, I verified their hours of operations, and there was no notice online or on the their door indicating the unexpected closure. It was a very disappointing to spend a 3 hour round trip to find the doors locked with no explanation. read more

Omg this is Good cheesecake! I ordered the Oreo cheesecake & it literally melted in my mouth! The guy behind the counter was headed out but he opened the store back up for me. His customer service was excellent. He also made suggestions. I will definitely be back for some more. read more

Stopped in to Uncle Cheesecakes on Valentine's Day to pick up something sweet for my wife and I. Greeted by Uncle cheesecake himself, I was a bit alarmed to walk in to an almost empty cooler, but he quickly assured me he had plenty of fresh cakes in the back getting cut up and put in containers. He was very friendly, and quick to offer me their valentines specials, but I was on a mission and knew what I wanted. Knowing what my wife likes, and what I like, it was quick, to pick, a slice of peanut butter cup (not pictured) for her and a slice of Oreo cheesecake for me. Both looked fantastic, and after dinner, I was able to confirm they were even better tasting than they looked, creamy with the perfect amount of sweetness. Great visit, both my wife and I were happy with the sweet desert, easy to see how he made it on the Food Network's show Chopped! We'll be back, no doubt! read more

Very small selection and the glass entrance door looked dirty with greasy finger prints

Uncle Cheesecake is a newer discovery, and one I'm so glad to have found. Uncle Cheesecake himself has always been behind the counter when we have visited. We have gone later in the evening each visit but the available selection has always been outstanding! The inside has a modern vibe to it and Uncle Cheesecake made sure to let us know what flavors were available outside of what was in the display case. The taste of his cheesecakes are incomparable to any other cheesecake I have tried! I look forward to going back just to see what new and creative flavors he comes up with! While I haven't participated as of yet, he also hosts kids summer camp and adult cooking classes! Follow him on Facebook for availability and sign up details! read more

The man working was really sweet. When I went with a friend no one else was there, so we stayed and played cards to catch up. They didn't have a lot of cheesecake options available at that time. So we got cobbler and an Oreo cheesecake. They both tasted good. My friend says he goes to support a small business, which I do understand. Maybe if it was closer to me I would go back, since the guy working was really nice. read more

Saw him on television. Great people. Cant wait to have the cobbler and the cupcake in a jar.

Located next to Sammy G's in High Point, this is the place to go for cheesecake. He has a rotating menu of different varieties. I, of course, wanted dark chocolate, which wasn't in the rotation for this week. I will definitely come back when it is. I got Oreo and Turtle. Yum. Started eating it and couldn't stop. So good! I had to put it in the trunk of my care so that I didn't eat it all on the way home. Quality food at a reasonable price from a man who deserves your business. Stop by and see him. You won't be sorry! read more

My wife and I were looking for a sweet to finish the Sunday (5:45 pm) and found Uncle Cheesecake trought Yelp. When we arrive we were greeted by the actual Uncle Cheesecake!

We will come back for sure. read more

Uncle cheesecake has the best cheesecake in the triad. It is incredibly unique. It has that iconic taste of amazing cheesecake yet it is not overly sweet. How can you say that about cheesecake you ask? I don't know. You will just have to try them for yourself. So delicious. read more

I didn't get any pictures, which is a crying shame! But we gobbled up our desserts in a flash. I've wanted to check this dessert place for a while--I'm a food network fan and saw the owner on Chopped. I was so pumped to see a local! My husband got the OG cheesecake, which is a traditional style cheesecake. I tried a bite and he wasn't wrong! It was super tasty and very good. I got a chocolate cupcake. Holy cow! Super rich chocolatey taste. I ate half and saved the rest for later (it was just as good the next day!) Our service was good! We were there towards the end of their hours--about an hour before closing so they were working on restocking the case and prepping for the next day. The lady said she could help us by adding the fruits to the cheesecake since they didn't have any already prepared. read more

This is the place that made me like cheesecake again. I know what you are thinking... what kind of monster doesn't like cheesecake, and why is he in charge of Yelp in the Triad? Very simple. Every cheesecake I've had in my life was extremely rich, very dense, and mostly just in one very plain traditional flavor. The cheesecake at Uncle Cheesecake is different, and to me, in the best way. His cheesecake not only comes in a huge variety of flavors, but the cheesecake is more airy and light, it makes it so that a small spoonful isn't going to overpower you, I really enjoy it, though I am sure it is personal preference. My favorite is the Reese's cup cheesecake, which is no surprise, chocolate and peanut butter were meant to be together. Following that, it's the strawberry shortcake for me, which he says is his signature item. I can see why. It is so well balanced. This would be one I could order a whole cake, no problem. His store is mainly designed for take out, but there are a few tables inside and out. It's a great place to have dessert if you are dining at one of the many good restaurants in this area. Go see Unc! read more

Really good cheesecake! The prices have gone up, but again, really good cheesecake ! We got to meet the " Uncle " himself, very friendly and conversational. The cabinet was pretty bare, but we were there end of day, they still had our favorites, Oreo and Reese's slices, so we were happy customers. read more

I came here because a friend recommended it and I'm glad they did. For my first time there I ordered the Turtle Cheesecake and Bread Pudding. Both were delicious but I'll say my favorite was the Bread Pudding since I was in the mood for a warm dessert. Both desserts flavors were delicious. The Bread Pudding was moist and they poured caramel sauce on it when I bought it. The sauce it soaked in was perfect. The Turtle Cheesecake had a good Oreo crust to cheesecake ratio. I ordered my desserts early on a Saturday morning as I was close by. Thanks to the time I went there wasn't a line. I also ordered my desserts to go as I was out running errands. They do have indoor seating if you want to eat indoors. I plan on going back to try their other desserts and I'd recommend you try this place read more

My husband and I found this place on Yelp today because we wanted good cheesecake for our anniversary. We had never heard of Uncle Cheesecake before tonight. We ordered the strawberry cheesecake and the Reese's cheesecake. They were absolutely delicious. I would go back and try something else (and I'm sure that will happen one day soon) but I want more strawberry cheesecake. I'm extremely picky about that specific dessert and they earned themselves a customer for life now. The Reese's cheesecake was very good too. My husband gave me a nibble. He liked my cheesecake more than his. Next time we go back we are both ordering strawberry yum!!!! read more

(3.5 stars) Greensboro firefighter Daniel Gray and his wife set up shop in this spot off Hickswood Road a few years back and have attracted quite a following since. If nothing else, the assortment justifies the hype. Uncle Cheesecake offers cheesecakes (including keto-friendly), cupcakes, bites, brownies, cake pops, dessert tacos (!!), lemonades, and slushies in a variety of flavors, several of which (such brownie bottom choco strawberry cheesecake and cherry Cheerwine cupcakes) are rarely found elsewhere. Anyone with a sweet tooth may have a hard time making decisions here. The cheesecake here is on the tangy side, which may surprise those expecting something sweeter. This actually allows the flavors of the toppings to shine, and in most cases the combinations work well. The cupcakes are more of a hit (the aforementioned Cheerwine) or miss (strawberry daiquiri - it sounds better on paper) affair, but the weekly BOGO nights are conducive to trying out different flavors. Inside, the bakery has little ambiance to speak of, which is hardly an issue given the amount of takeout business during a pandemic. Of a potentially greater concern: the number of maskless folks (owner included) you may encounter in a smallish space (though in fairness, this may not have been reflective of their norm). Alex Amoroso continues to hold the Triad's cheesecake crown, but Uncle Cheesecake should not be overlooked as an alternative. A multitude of fun flavors and dessert options make it worth a visit. read more

Cute cheesecake shop in high point. They also have cupcakes & cake pops. I'm not a HUGE cheesecake person, but these were very good. Really flavorful & creamy. Not overly sweet either. The space was clean the only thing was no one was at the front of house when I walked in but a nice young man came out to assist me. I think I will try the cupcakes next time I'm in the area. read more

I have never had this style of cheesecake before. The Carolina style as described is really fluffy and savory! I LOVED it! I am so glad this place exists! It will be replacing my usual my NY style cheesecake. Everyone should try this! I got the strawberry cheesecake (so delicious my mouth is watering just thinking about it!) and the Reese's slice- amazing as well!! read more

Updating my review from last time and bumping it up a star because of their cake pops. I think they need to scrap the cheesecakes and focus on other items. They do have cupcakes, which I haven't tried, but I did take a taste of my kid's cake pop and found it to be really good! Sweet icing, dense and sweet cake that tasted like it was soaked to keep from being too dry. They might have something there if they make that their focus. I don't want to make this review to dog on the cheesecake, but I maintain after giving it another go that it's not for me. I like all kinds of cheesecake. I am a cheesecake guy! I like NY style, Carolina style, Hawaiian style, Zamunda style (is that a style?)...I like it all! I'm sorry, but I do not understand the hype on the cheesecake here. It is creamy, yes, but it is also flavorless. It's one thing if you don't have a sweet tooth like me, but this is straight up bland. Even the caramel on my slice was flavor free. The crust at the bottom was a good texture but also no flavor. I finished my slice and Lace's because I have an eating disorder, but the cheesecake here is begging for some sugar. That would make a big difference. Do try the cake pops though! They're nice! read more

I could have eaten an entire cheesecake! Period. That is literally all this review needs to say, but I will go on. I have been to Sammy Gs a handful of times and never noticed this place sitting next door. I wish I had! It was incredible. Great service, clean location, and DELICIOUS cheesecake. I can't tell you how many times I have had cheesecake that was too rich and I couldn't eat it. I wanted to lick the box this came in, but I tried to stay classy! I picked up a piece of Reese's for my honey as well and he loved it. I asked if they offer their cheesecake in any local restaurants and she said she thinks they serve it at Sweet Ole Bills, but that was it. It's funny because Sweet Ole Bills is another one of my High Point favorites! Get your hurt to Uncles Cheesecakes, and I promise you won't regret it! read more

This cheesecake was ok. I ordered two cheesecakes. The Oreo and the "Snickers with peanuts." The best part about the "Snickers with peanuts" was what was on top of the whipped cream and the crust. The actual cheesecake was pretty boring except for the huge chunks of peanuts throughout. The Oreo cheesecake had much more flavor and even though, purchased for someone else, I really enjoyed that one. Bc of the Oreo cheesecake, I'd return earlier in the day and try selecting from a wider range of options. I did come at 9:30 and they close at 10 so I guess options were limited I guess. Overall I enjoyed visiting the bakery bc I was able to read about his Chopped Competition and baking accolades on the walls. read more

This cheesecakery was recently featured in Our State magazine, so I immediately added it to my list of places to visit. The cheesecake itself is fluffy and creamy, and there are several flavors to choose from: Oreo, turtle, Reese's, strawberry shortcake, and many more. Uncle Cheesecake can also create custom cakes for a special occasion! COVID-19 measures: dining room is closed for in-room eating. Staff members are wearing masks. read more

I am a sucker for cheesecake so I was stoked to see this business pop up on my feed. I ended up going with the generic options being Oreo and Reese's. They certainly didn't disappoint and actually provided a different experience than what I'm used to! While not my favorite style, the light and fluffier texture for a cheesecake certainly was easier on the stomach than what you expect. They did a great job with the usual fan favorites of Oreo and Reese's and I highly recommend checking them out! I will certainly be back eventually to try out more of their flavors and may delve into the other baked goods that they offer! read more

This place is unreal! I usually don't like cheesecake, but I had heard so many incredible things about this place so I had to give it a try. I ended up ordering two large cheesecakes (apple pie and caramel pecan pie) for a party and they were a hit! Additionally, the staff was very friendly and helpful when assisting me with my order. Both cheesecakes tasted so light and flavorful-- I can now say that I'm a fan of cheesecake. I cannot wait to come back and try the other wide array of cheesecake flavors they have on the menu! read more

Found this place after seeing it on the NC tv Chanel. Every nice thing they said was true. Truly amazing assortment of cheesecakes that literally melt in your mouth. They have a lot more than just cheesecakes, like amazing, flavorful cupcakes. Took the ride from Winston-Salem and I will be taking the ride a lot more now. It is off the road and easy to miss but once you find it you will never forget it. Staff is friendly and efficient. Great place to satisfy your sweet tooth. read more

I love cheesecake and the turtle cheesecake from Uncle Cheesecake was amazing! I feel incredibly lucky that my aunt lives around the corner from this gem. She and I stopped in recently to pick up dessert for the whole family. Our purchase included a strawberry cupcake, a birthday cake cupcake, and slices of turtle cheesecake, Reese's cheesecake, strawberry shortcake cheesecake, and caramel pecan cheesecake. I had the good fortune to be able to sample the Reese's and the strawberry cupcake, in addition to my slice of turtle cheesecake. The Reese's cheesecake was deliciously peanut buttery. The cupcake was moist and I loved the buttercream frosting- my mom, who also tried the birthday cupcake, said that these cupcakes are the best she has ever had! As for the turtle cheesecake, it was so tasty that I found myself scraping every last crumb up. The texture was light and creamy and it wasn't overly sweet - just right. I definitely look forward to trying more of the menu! read more

Horrible Service!!!! This was my first time coming to visit, as we had just left from having an awesome experience for diner and saved dessert to try out this spot we had just noticed when we drove up. Thought it would be a nice treat for the family to end a special day...But maybe Sundays are the wrong days to visit? When you go to a bakery, you expect sweet smiles, happy smells, bakeries are supposed to be pleasant experience. Not this time!! Pros-The Tastes are original and seems made from scratch. Cons- Unfortunately the slices were smaller and warmer than I prefer, they did however taste better after being refrigerated over night. It was enough for a serving size for me and I would be ok supporting good quality product as long as it tastes good .... I'm still debating this Pros-They seem to be improving in variety of choices and the location is nice Cons- Service was VERY unpleasant. I would have been fine with self check out. Definitely did not give any feelings of going and eating joyfully. No napkins, no forks, I felt blessed to be given a bag. Pros- Has potential to be a nice family friendly environment Cons- The ambiance , when we walked in , I could not smell anything sweet at all,no sugar or spices, nothing nice. I literally thought they might be edibles and had to ask if the food was "regular" because I needed to make sure the kids could eat it. The smell was so overwhelming!!! I did not get to experience the smell of the cheesecakes until I got home. I'm going to have to ask around but as of now this is a "No Go" !!!! read more

This was my first and only visit. I bought a slice, (and when I say slice it was more like a sliver), of the caramel/pecan cheesecake. The graham cracker crust was very salty and the cheesecake was just "eh." Definitely not worth the $7.00. The young lady who serve us looked and acted like she didn't want to be there and came across with an attitude like we were interrupting her day. Extremely disappointed and will never buy there again. There are plenty of other bakeries around that have better tasting cheesecake and more cordial employees! read more

Great cheesecakes, but the service is TERRIBLE! I've purchased many items here, but the past two visits I've been astonished about how rude the employees are. I'll sadly no longer support this place. read more

I've seen the owner so often on local morning television and he is such an overwhelming personality, the persona of a good guy. We walked into his place on a Friday evening and was disappointed in the fact that they were sold out of most everything, so we returned the following weekend and were pleasantly surprised that the owner was in store and fully stocked. First off, this gentleman's energy and passion are off the charts. He spent time taking us through his selections and ingredients and took the time to ask us preferences, etc. You don't get personalized service like this anymore. We selected bread pudding, a selection of cheesecakes, and cake pops. The flavors were fantastic, the cheesecakes were rich and had a great crust. Our kids loved the cake pops. We will definitely place Uncle Cheesecake on our rotation and make it a place to take out of town guests. I can't say enough about the owners passion and products. When you are looking for great desserts, pack up and head over to Uncle Cheesecake. read more
