National Macaroni Day is tomorrow, and National Mac & Cheese Day is July 14, so we put our sharpest minds to finding the best in the Burgh. The City Cast team broke down what makes a good mac and cheese and where to get the best classic and elevated takes on the dish in the city. 

Here are the mac’s that were gouda‘nough to make our list:

The Rear End GastroPub and Garage in Etna has a classic mac meal

Kelly’s Bar and Lounge’s mac-n-cheese is an East Liberty staple

Bigham Tavern in Mt. Washington has a mac n’ cheese

The Double Wide Grill on the South Side has two mac and cheeses we recommend, brisket and the “gas can mac” 

Smoke in Lawrenceville was an overall winner for both their classic and specialty dishes

Macs we’ve heard are worth a try:

Urban Tap’s smoked gouda mac

The food truck Blowfish BQQ has a mac and cheese entree

Crafty Jackalope has a build your own option

Fortuitea Cafe & Bakery has a ton of vegan mac-n-cheese options

Carmi Soul Food has a macaroni and cheese side dish
