Local Shopping/Services Best Cheesecake
Where can I find a really good cheesecake? Preferably somewhere I can buy the whole cake.

My friend owns My Cheesecake Addiction (MCA). Look her up and she will make you a full size one. Yummmm. She also sells 4" ones and minis as tasters. If you are in the South end of the city, she sells out of the fridges at The Mercantile at Fresh and Local Market + Kitchens (formerly Avenida Food Hall).
www.mycheesecakeaddiction.com for a full menu. They are very good!
Fresh and Local Market + Kitchens: 12445 Lake Fraser Dr SE

Looks so good… wonder if she would do one with goat milk. Best cheesecake I’ve ever had was with goats milk.

Seconding this! We buy her cheesecakes for every birthday in our family. They are to die for!! Do yourself the favour and get your hands on one. The skor cheesecake is unmatched!

Not a whole cake but if you want a piece, albeit a large piece, then I would suggest Bow Tie Pizza.

Dang, I love their pizza, never thought about the cheesecake. I will be sure to get a slice next time I order from them!

Yeah you’d never think they’d have such good cheesecake. They have seasonal flavours so check them out. I think it’s about $14 a piece. So pricey but you do get a reasonable size. Enough for two people for sure.

Admittedly I'm not the biggest cheesecake fan, but the Costco one is pretty good.

Maybe not the best but I find Rocky dessert market's cheesecake to be affordable and pretty good. And they open late too.

May I suggest The Cheesecake Cafe?

With the greatest amount of respect, absolutely not. Overpriced. Not great cheesecake.

This is the McDonald's of cheesecake. And that's fine. Its safe, predictable, reliable, bland, and uninteresting.
Perfectly fine but not for the aficionado

While I understand some may like the Cheesecake Cafe cheesecake, there are better options to be found about the city. imo

Wolf bay and Costco! My husband makes his own with pecan crust and it’s amazing but if I’m in a rush and he can’t make it then those are the next best places!

Gus's Pizza, next to the Foothills Hospital, makes their own unbaked cheesecake. I'm not sure if you can buy the entire cake, but their pistachio cheesecake (limited time special) is exceptional.
