Peteet’s Famous Cheesecakes

Five more stars for the BANANA PUDDING!!!
Sampled it at TasteFest last night in Royal Oak and their email says they’re selling it in stores on Saturdays!
The best thing you’ve ever had!!! And I know they won Best Dessert/​Sweet at TasteFest because their voting box was filled to the brim!!!

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.

It was hard to select how many stars to put here because I LOVE the cheesecake here and buy it all the time. Because I love it, I was anxious to try the Paczi yesterday! The dough was good, but there was very little filling in them. Also I asked for a half dozen with one of each flavor and I got 4 of one flavor and two of another instead. I assume with this being the first year they made Paczi they would want some feedback. They will need to tweak the ordering system so you get what you order, and put more filling in then they did this year. So 5 stars for the place and the cheesecake, but only 3 stars on the Paczi with the assumption they will get better the next time around!

First timer for the paczki this AM. IMO, mediocre at best, not much filling at all. Waited in line with about 20 or so other people at 6 am. When they opened it was one of the most disorganized operations I have seen (especially on paczki day) and also with everyone there had pre-​ordered you would think that the majority of the orders would have been pre-packed…NO. Every order was packed while 20 other people waited there turn. Come on guys, some kind of organizational tools are needed for this type of event.

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!

strawberry shortcake vodka cheesecake. wish i didn’t know about this place. insert pig face emoji.

The best cheesecakes around, no joke.
Tons of flavors to choose from, from sweet potato to red velvet, strawberry shortcake vodka to truly decadent options like turtle, cookies and cream, and french vanilla cappuccino. AND seasonal flavors like eggnog and pumpkin. 25 flavors in total.
All flavors I’ve sampled are great but in truth I’m a cheesecake purist and my favorite of all is just the plain. It’s rich and creamy with just the right amount of sweetness.
They also carry gluten free and sugar free options and you can either get a full cheesecake or by the slice. A nice option when you’re attempting to exercise self control.
They also have the sweetest staff around to boot. A truly 5 star experience!

Have you ever tasted a dessert so perfect that you are torn between telling everyone you know about it, and wanting to keep the information to yourself — so that way they never sell out of your favorite? That was exactly how I felt when I ate the cookies and cream cheesecake from Peteet’s tonight.
My sweetest surprised me for Sweetest Day and brought home this amazing cheesecake (we don’t normally celebrate it, so this was extra nice). First, the presentation was beautiful — the cheesecake perfectly cooked, with golden brown edges peeking through the top. The top of the cheesecake was covered in crushed Oreo cookies and chocolate syrup, and a small whipped cream ribbon completed the top. It was almost too pretty to eat, but I’m so glad I did — it was as if angels were singing in perfect harmony and hand feeding you, as you’re lying on a cashmere couch surrounded by puppies. It was THAT good. Rich, creamy sweet perfection.
I’ve never seen the inside of the store, so I can’t speak to its ambiance; nor do I have any idea how much it costs, since I didn’t buy it. But whatever the cost, trust me — it’s worth it.

Heard about this at work and decided to try it. All taste great. You can pick a slice of each if you want if you can’t decide.

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!!!

Happy national cheesecake day! I picked the right day to try this place out because they were giving 20% off and a free slice of cheesecake!!! Woohoo!
The picking were a little slim but I wasn’t worried about it, I opted for a slice of Oreo. It was good, but not earth shattering. The oreo’s were simply on the top of the cheesecake, not inside like I had hoped. They also use a traditional graham cracker crust but I think an Oreo crust would have been delicious. The flavors are good but personally, I prefer an Italian style cheesecake which is lighter and airy. But that is just personal preference. I also thought that $ 3.95 a slice was a bit steep for the size of the slice.
All in all, it was good cheesecake but not my all time favorite. I’d eat it again, but probably not go out of my way for a trip here.

Today was my first time patronizing Peteet’s Famous Cheesecakes. My son absolutely loves their Strawberry Delight Cheesecake. Since, today is Tuesday (the advertised donut special day) I decided to purchase ½ Cheesecake Donuts and one slice of Strawberry Delight Cheesecake. I asked for an assorted variety because there were six different kind of donuts. The young lady went into the back to get them. I wasn’t sure why; when there were plenty in the case. Well, let’s just say I had been given mostly the least desirable flavor. I had been given 3 strawberry vodka donuts, 1 apple crumb, 1 powdered and 1 chocolate dipped. I was very disappointed. The strawberry vodka donuts had an odd taste, that’s probably why I received so many. I’m not sure if I will go back. I feel as a customer I was not valued. This was a missed opportunity to put their best foot forward.

It shouldn’t be allowed to be called cheesecake!!! Don’t believe the hype!
The pieces were tiny, and they cost quite a bit considering the size.
The flavor was terrible, just God-​awful. Too sweet, I got the ‘chocolate’ flavored piece. It’s in quotes because I think chocolate was either a description or a suggestion, because it certainly wasn’t the flavor.
The texture was all wrong. It was like they barely used cream cheese in this. It was like 1 part cream cheese and 8 parts whipped topping (I don’t e even think they used whipped cream)
I was so disappointed I ate half and threw the rest away. It was a waste of money and time. Not to mention probably the worst cheesecake ever. I’ve had grocery store freezer section cheesecake that tasted better by miles.

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.

Mmmmmmmm!
I LOVE cheesecakes, going so far as to have a friend bring me a few back from her go-​to spot in NY to eat and store for later eating. It’s been a very difficult and challenging road for me as I venture to find cheesecake with the perfect texture, flavor, and downright mouthwatering appeal as those delicious cakes in NY.
Alas, I may have found a second contender and as we all know, us gals can love more than one cheesecake.
Peteet’s has just about every cheesecake flavor possible, including espresso which reaches the inner caffeine addict in me. Creamy, slightly dense, and so flavorful, Peteet’s comes in clutch for any occasion. I’m always counting my cash, so the price does seem a bit steep but the flavor and texture combination quickly made me forgive the dent to my checking account.

Wow. Just… wow. I can’t imagine my life before Peteet’s.
I was on a quest for wedding cake options in September of 2014 when I came across Peteet’s. I fell deliriously in love with the idea of a cheesecake wedding cake but the cost of a three-​tiered cheesecake that they offered was far beyond our budget. Instead, we opted for several single cheesecakes. It worked much better for an outdoor, soul-​food themed reception anyhow :) These are the flavors we chose:
Sweet Potato: Holy mother of sweet potato pie, this cheesecake was fabulous! Many of our guests loved it just as much as we did!
Strawberry Shortcake Vodka: I like that the strawberry was blended with the cheesecake. I also liked that you could actually taste the vodka! It was quite scrumptious and definitely a future go-​to.
Cookies and Cream: Errrmagherrrd, it’s Oreo cookie *heaven*. This was a very rich cheesecake because it’s not only topped with chocolatey goodness, the crust is also chocolate graham. So consumer beware – just go easy on the slices!
Peach Cobbler: Chunks of peaches strewn through the bottom layer of the cheesecake. I liked it but the peaches got a little lost in the strong sweetness of the cheesecake. I felt it needed something more.
Key Lime: This pie was a masterful replica of key lime pie. I’d highly recommend this flavor to anyone seeking that refreshing lime flavor. Peteet’s nailed it, hands down!
I don’t know why some folks have given this company poor ratings. I’d say they’re not only great people to work with, but they have a great selection of flavors and they’ll take suggestions, too!
Give them a try. You owe it to your sweet tooth :)

My husband called to order three dozen of the yeast rolls for Christmas dinner. He called a few days before the holiday and was told that they weren’t going to have the regular ones available, and, instead, he’d have to have the cinnamon sugar ones. No downside there.
However, today, when he went to pick up the order, he was told that there was no record of it. Husband was also told that he would have needed to place it weeks ago because they book up early. Then he was told that the oven was broken. Then he was told that maybe it someone who was helping out and didn’t know what he was doing. Wait, what?
Many, many excuses for something that should not, and would not have happened in the first place if someone one on the phone would have simply said «I’m sorry, but we cannot take anymore orders.» instead, my husband gets to make a special trip from Rochester Hills on Christmas Eve for phantom rolls.
The owner, ever unaccommodating, said that he couldn’t just give my husband rolls and short another customer (which my husband never asked for) as people would regularly come in with the claim to pick up rolls that they never ordered. I didn’t realize that there was a black market for yeast rolls. Instead, he offered to take my husband’s name for half-​off a future cheesecake or order of rolls. Neither offer was accepted and we will not be returning. Ever. Never. Ever. Again.
Please get some better internal controls so that this doesn’t happen to future customers.

Just okay…
I’ve had better cheesecake at Sam’s Club. The slices are small for the price and the taste isnt really there.
They have many different options and after 3 visits, I still dont really care for it.
The cheesecake cupcakes are delicious though! But I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here just for it.
I agree with one reviewer who said they prefer the NY type of cheesecakes, and I have to agree.
But I wish them well.

This is in reference to the new location in Orchard Lake Michigan.
When coming into town from the Dream Cruise we stayed near Orchard Lake and noticed Peteet’s opened another location.
This is a prefect location, nice and clean and in a great area. Patrick the owner is a true gentlemen and great business owner and aware of everything.
The staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful and the Cheesecake is always delicious and so unique.

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!

Bc of all the fab reviews, my sweet tooth friend and I decided to have our lunch date here. There is a private lot which is great! There are two tables for you to enjoy your cheesecake at. Most people take theirs to go.
I got the French Vanilla Cappuccino Cheesecake and my friend got something I don’t remember. The cheesecake was good but not the best cheesecake we’ve ever had. It is about $ 3.75 for a small slice of cheesecake which is a bit pricy but it comes in its own little plastic container and if you eat there they give you a plastic spoon. Definitely still a place you should check out! They also give out free samples. Who doesn’t love free. Also you get a card for buy 10 slices get the 11^th free. Awesome sauce!

My sister and I stopped here on our way to the Michigan Renaissance Festival. It happened to be their third anniversary and they had 20% off any purchase. There was lots to choose from-​strawberry shortcake vodka, sweet potato. almond, red velvet, peach cobbler, turtle cheesecake, cookies and cream, Reesey’s, lemon, key lime, etc., We chose the cappuccino because it was morning and we needed an eye-​opener if we were going to get to the RenFest on time!
Peteet’s Famous Cheesecake is sooo awesome, better than any other you have had! You have to try the cappuccino cheesecake! It was so fresh and delicious! They make gluten-​free and kosher cakes as well. They also have cheesecake ice cream in key lime and strawberry! The whole family is involved in the making and running of the bakery and their love shows in every bite! They are totally devoted to making the best cheesecake in the world!
But if you want something else, they also have chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal craisin cookies, and honey butter yeast rolls.
Stop by and check them out! The holidays are coming!!!

I keep meaning to write this up and I forget until I am hungry for cheesecake again. Yeah, I’m hungry for cheesecake again so it looks like I will be making the hike. You know this is damn good cheesecake as I hate driving all the way to this side of town and yet I still do it.
I too first sampled this cheesecake at the Unilocal event at the DYC. It was the sweet potato varietal and it was heavenly. So heavenly in fact, I dragged my behind over here to get a whole one for a family event and found it was no fluke. They gave me samples and further hooked me in, they do this every time you darken their door. Evil genius idea really as yes I have returned based on those tastes.
The almond cheesecake rocks (droolicious) as does the strawberry to a slightly lesser degree but my absolute fave remains the sweet potato. The cheesecake here is just the right texture, being neither too heavy nor too airy. It’s solid and filling without overwhelming you. The flavors are true and not overly sugared up.
My husband likes the cheesecake brownies but they are not my particular thing. The cheesecake cupcakes are fun but I’d rather just get a slice of the real deal. They would be fun for a party though I imagine.
I’ll be back and soon.

This is an excellent place for a creamy, smooth cheesecake in a tasty graham cracker crust. This is not a chalky, New York style thick slab of cheesecake. They serve smooth, moderately sized pieces of dessert goodness. I have tried a few of their flavors and the «Appletini» flavored cheesecake was spectacular… fresh, smooth, soft and creamy with a pleasant green apple flavor that was not too overpowering. I would definitely get another slice of this flavor any time it is available.
The store is very clean and the free samples help customers decide which flavors they would like a whole slice of. There are always slices available from a variety of flavors and whole cakes are available behind the glass as well. The prices reflect the premium product they sell, so a whole cheesecake is a little expensive, but the people you share these tasty treats with will be so happy you purchased quality over quantity.
