About Us

I started Namesake Cheesecake to honor my dear friend, Cherith Lorraine, for whom I was named after. John Rickey, her husband,  former owner of Rick's  Swiss Chalet, Dinah's Shack, and the infamous Rickey's Hyatt House. All of these Bay Area staples served, "Mrs. Rickey's Famous Cheesecake."  In November of 2011 my promise to Cherith Lorraine that one day I would start a company with her recipe became a reality.

The delicious cheesecake is a three step process that takes 2 days to bake. We have several toppings to choose from. Homemade Strawberry, Raspberry, Mango, Chocolate Frangelico, Oreo, Seasonal fruit and Holiday candies. Orders can be picked up in our Menlo Park store or delivered. We are available for all catering events including, but not limited to,  weddings, birthdays, graduations, retirement, business luncheons, or anywhere dessert is served.  We offer the kitchen illiterate the ability to not come empty handed to any holiday party as well.
