One thing about Arkansas, there’s always a small town with an unassuming spot that will bring us joy. Mount Holly is one of the smallest towns in the state, but don’t let that fool you because it has a secret weapon. It’s a tiny, unassuming gas station that has the best cheesecakes in Arkansas. And this hidden gem is one you’ll want to check out for yourself.
With just over 150 residents, it’s safe to say that not many people are rushing to the tiny town of Mount Holly.
Located approximately 20 miles outside of El Dorado, this sleepy little town is the literal definition of off-the-beaten-path.
But what you don’t know is that this town is home to the Mount Holly Store, which is a local gas station and grocery store in the area.
While you can get fuel and purchase supplies at this store, it’s the baked goods that are the talk of the town.
Mount Holly Store has a menu filled with homemade, sweet treats that include pudding, fruit cobbler, cakes, cupcakes as well as cookies.
All are divine and you won’t be disappointed with whatever you choose.
If you’re a fan of cheesecake, then you’re in for a treat. You’ll find the best cheesecakes in Arkansas at this store.
The choices are endless and there are always weekly specials that are to die for.
Y’all know Fruity Pebbles cereal, right? Well, you haven’t lived until you’ve tried this colorful cheesecake.
You’ll love the pieces of crunchy cereal with every bite, and the smooth, rich texture will send your taste buds into overdrive.
Other choices include the banana pudding cheesecake. Need we say more? No matter what, don’t skip this yummy goodness.
You’ll also find classics like Oreo, Reese's, Turtle Brownie, Snickers, and more.
For a fruity treat, try the blueberry or the strawberry crunch cheesecakes. Both are equally divine and worth the extra calories.
But if you’re a hardcore cheesecake lover, you’ll want to try the “Diabetic Coma Delight." This delectable dessert is so rich that it could literally put you into a coma.
So, be warned, eat it at your own risk as this cheesecake ain’t for the faint of heart.
The holidays bring its own set of decadent treats. The seasonal cheesecakes will warm your heart and bring you joy.
Aside from the yummy desserts, the Mount Holly Store serves some of the best food around.
You can stop by for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and we recommend trying one of the juicy burgers. For the best experience, grab a seat at the infamous round table, if the regulars didn’t beat you to it.
If you do run into the locals, they’ll make you feel welcomed and you might get an earful from them as well.
