8. Banapple

Banapple is arguably the most popular cheesecake place in Manila, and for good reason. They have a wide selection of cheesecakes, as well as other sweets. Their cheesecakes have an amazingly thick crust, which is normally not what you’re after when it comes to cheesecake, but the buttery and crumbly feel to it compliments the cake wonderfully.

Price range: Around P800 for two

Location: Ayala Triangle Gardens & Salcedo Village in Makati City, with branches in Katipunan, BGC, Alabang and Quezon City.

Location: Unit 14, Ground Floor, Tropical Palms Condominium, 103 Dela Rosa Street Corner Perea Street, Legaspi Village, Makati City with branches in Loyola Heights, Pasig and Tomas Morato.

3. Cheesecakes by Guy

There are a lot of things to love about Cheesecakes by Guy . One is that they have very unique flavors like ChocNut, Queso de Bola, and Barako. They also have an option where you can buy a taster cake, which is a 3” cake made up of slices of all their flavors (as if this will help you decide which to get!). Most of their cakes also have sugar-free options. In addition to all this, they also have incredibly friendly and accommodating service staff that make your visit that much sweeter.

Price Range: 5” Minis P400-P500 (P500-P600 sugar-free) and 8″ Regular P1,000-P1,200 (P1,300-P1,500 sugar-free)
