Cheesecake Factory delivery, takeout & curbside

By Editorial StaffLast updated

Not every restaurant runs every off-premise service. This page shows which of the 214 Cheesecake Factory restaurants publish delivery, curbside, takeout and order-ahead and which dishes actually survive the journey.

Quick Answer / TL;DR
  • Does The Cheesecake Factory deliver? Yes, but delivery is exclusively powered by DoorDash. You cannot order delivery through UberEats or GrubHub.
  • Is there a delivery fee? Yes, DoorDash charges delivery and service fees, and menu prices may be slightly higher on the app than in-store.
  • Can I use a gift card for delivery? You cannot use a Cheesecake Factory gift card on DoorDash, but you can use it on the restaurant's official site for pickup or curbside orders.
Availability is not the same as coverage

A restaurant listing delivery means the service exists there. It does not mean your address is inside its radius that is decided at checkout by the restaurant's own ordering system or the delivery platform you use.

The Cheesecake Factory Delivery & DoorDash Integration

If you are searching for Cheesecake Factory delivery, you should know that the restaurant chain does not employ its own fleet of delivery drivers. Instead, they rely exclusively on third-party logistics partners, primarily DoorDash, to fulfill their off-premise delivery orders. When you place an order directly through The Cheesecake Factory's website, it is seamlessly routed through DoorDash's White Label delivery service (called DoorDash Drive).

If you are wondering how to DoorDash for the first time, the process is simple: download the DoorDash app, enter your delivery address to confirm you are within range of a participating Cheesecake Factory, and build your cart. Be aware that because the delivery is outsourced, any issues with missing items or severely delayed drivers must usually be resolved through the delivery app's customer service rather than by calling the restaurant directly.

DoorDash Deals & Delivery Promotions

Finding DoorDash deals is often the best way to save money on a delivery order. Because third-party apps charge service fees, delivery fees, and often inflate the menu prices, the total bill can quickly exceed what you would pay dining in.

To combat this, look for seasonal promotions. The Cheesecake Factory frequently partners with DoorDash to offer waived delivery fees on orders over a certain threshold (e.g., $15 or $25). Additionally, during massive promotional events like National Cheesecake Day, they often run exclusive codes where you can get a free slice of cheesecake added to your delivery order. Subscribers to DashPass also receive $0 delivery fees and reduced service fees on eligible orders.

Cheesecake Factory Catering Menu

For large gatherings, office parties, or family events, the Cheesecake Factory catering menu is a popular choice. Rather than ordering individual entrees, the catering menu offers massive "party pans" of their most popular dishes, including Chicken Madeira, Spicy Cashew Chicken, and an array of signature pastas.

Catering orders can be placed for either takeout or delivery. If you require delivery for a large catering order, it is strongly advised to place the order at least 24 hours in advance. Large orders require significant kitchen coordination, and giving the restaurant a day's notice ensures your food is prepared on time and a dedicated driver is available for the large payload.

Sending a Birthday Cheesecake Delivery Gift

A frequent request is how to send a birthday cheesecake delivery as a surprise gift. The most reliable method is to use a delivery app like DoorDash or UberEats. Simply change the delivery address in the app to the recipient's home or office before you begin building the cart. You can order a whole 10-inch cake, or a curated box of assorted slices.

Most apps now include a "Send as a Gift" feature at checkout, which allows you to include a digital note and hides the receipt total from the recipient. If you are looking for frozen cheesecakes same-day delivery, you are mostly out of luckif you order from the local restaurant, the cakes will arrive thawed and ready to eat, exactly as they are served in the dining room. If you want a frozen cake shipped across the country on dry ice, you must order through Harry & David, their official national shipping partner (which is not same-day).

What travels, and what doesn't

The menu is broad enough that the delivery experience varies more by dish than by restaurant. Pastas arrive close to how they left: sauce keeps them warm and they tolerate twenty minutes in a thermal bag. Sandwiches and burgers hold if the fries are eaten first. Cheesecake is the most travel-proof thing on the menuit is designed to be sold whole and taken home in robust branded packaging.

The losses are predictable. Fried appetizers soften rapidly in closed containers. Anything with a crisp crust or a separate hot sauce arrives merged. Salads dressed in the kitchen wilt, though most restaurants will pack dressing separately if you explicitly ask in the order notes.

Prices on delivery platforms

Third-party platforms commonly list dishes above the in-restaurant price, then add service and delivery fees on top. The prices on this site are the restaurant's own published list prices, so treat them as the in-restaurant baseline rather than what a delivery app will quote you on the final checkout screen.

FAQ

Delivery questions

Does The Cheesecake Factory deliver directly?
No, they do not use their own in-house drivers. 214 of the 214 restaurants in this directory publish delivery as an available service, but it is fulfilled entirely by third-party partners like DoorDash. Whether a given address is inside a restaurant's delivery radius is decided at checkout by the delivery platform.
How do I get free Cheesecake Factory delivery?
Free delivery is typically only available during promotional periods (like National Cheesecake Day) or if you subscribe to a service like DoorDash DashPass, which waives delivery fees for participating restaurants on orders over a certain minimum.
What is the difference between delivery, curbside and takeout?
Takeout means you collect at the host stand213 restaurants offer it. Curbside means a team member brings the order to your car, offered at 183 locations. Delivery means the order is driven to you via a service like DoorDash, offered at 214 locations.
Can I order ahead and pay online?
209 restaurants publish order-ahead with online payment. That is the fastest route for a pickup order at a busy time, because the kitchen starts cooking before you arrive and you skip the payment line entirely.
Is the Cheesecake Factory catering menu available for delivery?
Yes, you can order from the catering menu for delivery through their partners. Catering orders are essentially standard menu items but served in large party pans. Because of the size and preparation time, it is highly recommended to order catering at least 24 hours in advance.
Can I send a birthday cheesecake delivery as a gift?
Yes. The easiest way is to place an order on DoorDash or another delivery app, change the delivery address to the recipient's home, and add a note that it is a gift. You cannot reliably order a custom-written message on the plate via the app, but you can send a whole or sliced cheesecake the same day.
Is the delivery menu the same as the dine-in menu?
Close, but not identical. Restaurants generally exclude a handful of items that do not survive the tripanything served sizzling, or built to be eaten within minutes. Prices on delivery platforms also generally sit above the in-restaurant list price to account for partner commissions.
Which dishes travel well?
Pastas, hearty sandwiches, and whole or sliced cheesecakes hold up the best. Fried appetizers, dishes finished with a hot sauce, and anything with a delicate crisp element are the ones most likely to arrive softened or soggy.
Does this site take orders?
No. This is an independent reference with no ordering function. Place orders through the restaurant's own site, official app, or through a delivery platform serving your address.
