The Bearded Baker — Restaurant in Columbus

I've reviewed them before. It's been a while since then but I've been there numerous times even brought my aunt there to celebrate her round of chemo!!! Love! Love! Love this place. The variety of cheesecake and the combo of cheesecake and cake is phenomenal. They have small tarts/cheese cakes too!! Also, the cookies here are spectacular. We get cheesecake and a cookie each time. Favorites are Blueberry Lemon, strawberry with or without a layer of cake, the Carmel apple, and the apple cookie🔥💯! The sweet potatoe cheesecake is a perfect 10! Then the pineapple upside-down cheesecake cake combo-makes you selfish, you will not share this!! 🙅‍♂️Thats just a few of our favorites. Make you wanna go there eveyday!!! Listen, Chef Baker Extraordinaire Estep and amazing dope wife is fierce! He makes German Chocolate Cheesecake and he makes it in small rounds too. 🥇🏆Don't sleep on the banana pudding cheesecake and surprisingly the pistachio cheesecake wowsers! 😋 They make a cookie that is my favorite and it has the perfect softness and distribution of ingredients....The chocolate chip walnut Carmel and love...Turtle cookie!!! That cookie can get a daytime, Emmy. Don't trust...

I love this little slice of heaven so much. First off, I'm always greeted like an old friend. I can't tell you how good it feels to be warmly welcomed and remembered. I'm always completely overwhelmed by the sheer variety in selection every time I come in. Aside from cheesecake, there's always some sort of delectable cookie (or cookie sandwich if you're feeling froggy), and tarte-like dessert in the case. I've probably tried at least 6 flavors of cheesecake at this point and each one is a hit. Recently I've had the raspberry-orange, sweet potato & toasted marshmallow, salted caramel, snickerdoodle cookie sandwich, and more. I truly can't remember them all because I KEEP COMING BACK! I always know where to stop for a quick, convenient, delicious, quality dessert. As the icing on the cake (pun intended), I stop in each time a coworker or friend has a birthday to grab them a slice. Guess who's waiting with open arms, and even provided me with candles to light for them?? The Bearded Baker of course. Needless to say after all this raving, go getchu some cheesecake y'all. You will not be...
