Great place to go get Mac & cheese
A place that specializes in macaroni and cheese dishes had better deliver In the taste department, and MacDaddy's Macaroni & Cheese Bar does just that.
We were out for a November Sunday drive, and this place had been bookmarked for some time.
It was a bit out of the way from home, but it was worth the trip.
It's not a fancy joint, but clean & comfortable.
Hey, Mac & cheese is blue collar food, so who needs fancy?
The menu offers three sizes of cast iron skillets that the mac & cheese is served in, 25 choices, and along with optional ingredients, making your selections almost limitless.
We both chose the small (snack) size since we were here for an early lunch. "Snack size" is a bit of a misnomer. I'm a large guy and a big eater, and I struggled to finish my lunch!
I chose the lobster mac & cheese, while my lunch companion ordered the mac & cheese with hot dogs.
Both had quality ingredients, as you'd expect. My lobster mac & cheese was very good. Not overly generous with lobster meat, but enough to make the cast iron skillet of cheesy macaroni very flavorful.
My dining companion's mac & cheese with hot dogs was done with quality hot dogs. I don't know where they source them, but they were clearly a good product, making it the equal to my dish.
I'm hoping they'll open a place nearer to me, maybe in the New Haven area. If they do that, I'd be a semi-regular. As it is, this location is a bit far away to be a regular stop for me.
Top notch macaroni and cheese! And the young man who took our orders was very helpful in making our choices.
Excellent service, low wait time. Not too crowded (although I might have just beaten the dinner rush since I went around 4-4:30). INCREDIBLE but VERY MUCH EDIBLE selections!
Really good food. They make it taste like different things. Prices were a little high I thought.
Found this place by accident and I’m glad I did! Awesome mac and cheese and enough combinations to please almost anyone’s cravings! Staff was super friendly and they bring the food to your table. Portions are enough to satisfy. Highly recommended!
