Junior’s Cheesecake was founded in Brooklyn back in 1950 and is best known for their delicious New York Style Cheesecakes. If you’re visiting New York, you don’t have to travel to Brooklyn to their original location. Right by Times Square is this location with lots and lots of cheesecake. We stopped by after a Broadway show for a little bit of a sweet treat but their dining area was packed full of customers and plenty of other people waiting in line.
They have a take-out section where you can take a slice of cheesecake or a whole one to go.
We ended up getting 2 pieces for takeout and share it with our friends too.
Strawberry Cheesecake
This beautiful slice of cheesecake has the original cheesecake topped with fresh strawberry pie filling and baked into a graham crust with our macaroon crunch. Loved the texture of the crust, the soft velvety texture of the cheesecake and the big pieces of strawberry.
Original New York Plain Cheesecake
Of course we had to go with this classic. This is really creamy but not heavy at all. When you take your first bite, it won’t crumble at all. The rich flavour is so addictive that you want more. It was rated “Best Overall” by the Wall Street Journal.
Final Thoughts
If you’re in the area and never had Junior’s before, best to go grab a slice at the restaurant or grab it to go.
