    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!

    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! He was so nice and in that moment prepare a blueberry cream for my wife, the options in the cooler were not her favorites. The slice was great and service excellent! We will come back for sure.

    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!

    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.

    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

    This was a surprise treat for me, making it all the more sweeter! But I honestly did enjoy these cakes, especially the turtle brownie. The cheesecake was also nice, and I'd like to try other offerings from this place.

    (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.

    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.

    Strawberry shortcake was Devine!!

    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!!

    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!

    Choices, choices!

    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!

    Snickers with peanuts cheesecake. The cashier told me it was like turtle cheesecake with peanuts, either way underwhelming.
    Myiah H.

    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.

    We stumbled upon this bakery on a whim when walking around the parking lot looking at other things…read more Even though we were about to go eat dinner, we stopped in for a treat. I was pretty taken aback by how many dessert options they had. Not only did they have a plethora of types of desserts, but they had sooo many flavors/varieties of each one. A dozen different variations of cheesecakes, several cupcake varieties, a dozen different kinds of macarons, several different cakes, tiramisu, tres leches, banana pudding, edible cookie dough, more cookies than I could name, brownies, eclairs, and more that I'm sure I have forgotten. If you can name it, I'm sure they have it. I've been looking for somewhere nearby to get a proper macaron (as opposed to a hard, macaron shaped cookie without the traditional texture) at a reasonable price point. This definitely met those criteria, so of course we tried a flower shaped macaron. It had the perfect, delicate cookie and that classic, light almondy flavor. We also had a brownie batter cookie, which was delicious and reminds me of something I would have saved on Pinterest a decade ago but never gotten around to making, much less as well as they do. Though there was a line inside, we were served super quickly by friendly staff, and found a nice seat outside in the sun. They also had abundant indoor seating. Maybe I'm the last one to hear about Sweet Dough and everyone else has been a fan, or maybe it's a true hidden gem. Either way, I will 100% be back.

    Also a good place to stop for sweets! So many options and…read moreI'm sure you'll find something you'll love! The interior was beautiful and the service was awesome!

I'm not sure if they do consignment style shops within the gift shop, or if it's all under the same business, but it's arranged in a bunch of mini sections that all kind of have a different aesthetic. It was a bit maze-like, but I have no doubt they sell something in here for everyone. Like the gift shop, the bakery had huge variety. Who knew there were so many types of cake? I ended up getting a carrot cake latte and a heart shaped macaron. It was only after I had ordered my latte with oat milk, checked out (including paying the up-charge for oat milk), and waited several minutes that they told me they were out of oat milk. This was disappointing, as I paid my extra for the oat milk, yes, but also because I don't really want a latte in general without it. Regardless, it was too late, so I just told them to do it with 2%. The latte was okay but I didn't love it. It mostly tasted sweet and like cinnamon. Which I guess is more or less what carrot cake tastes like? The menu said it came with a cream cheese cold foam or whipped cream (I don't remember which) but it came out with plain whipped cream. The espresso was a little bitter - maybe burnt or shocked. The macaron was gorgeous, but didn't have a macaron taste or texture. It was hard like cookie. A macaron should be light and airy, and the shell should almost collapse under a bite. I had to chomp through this one. I am not sure if it was stale, a bad batch, or if their "macarons" are just "macaron shaped cookies" by design.
