The thing about cheese in Wisconsin is that we really don't truly understand and appreciate how great we've got it. Folks think it's an exaggeration, but anyone who's left the Dairy State can tell you that cheese elsewhere is really just sad and kind of tasteless. You really have to leave the bounds of our cheese-filled borders to understand that what passes for good cheese in other states is not as good as the stuff we can buy in gas stations - because for some reason we even sell cheese in gas stations. Basically, we're spoiled rotten and we know there are many varied and wonderful ways to enjoy this amazing dairy product. One of the very best ways is in macaroni and cheese. This comfort food is basically the best of all worlds and then you add bacon and it gets even better. MACS is this amazing restaurant that started in the Wisconsin Dells and now has a few local outlets that serve up more variations of this mouth-watering, soul-healing food than you could ever even imagine. There's not much these folks won't put in a bowl of noodles and cheese - they even put mac in a salad. Basically, MACS is the perfect marriage of the best things in Wisconsin and you're going to want to check it out. If you're looking for the best mac and cheese restaurant in Wisconsin, it's right here.
MACS, The Mac And Cheese Shop, was started by two locals in the Wisconsin Dells whose family had worked in restaurants in the area for decades. They knew a good idea when they tasted one.
They call themselves mad macaroni scientists and they aren't wrong. Most folks even argue that MACS is the best mac and cheese restaurant in Wisconsin. You'll find flavors and combinations here that you never dreamed could be combined in mac and cheese, but you won't be mad about it.
This is Wisconsin, so we know everything is better with more cheese - and these portions don't skimp. Each skillet comes with tons of melty, ooey-gooey deliciousness.
Honestly, the best thing you could do is head here with a few friends, order tons of macs and then start sharing. Bacon mac, cheesesteak mac, mac with hot dogs, taco mac, bbq mac, spinach mac - the list goes on and on.
There's just something so warm, soothing and welcoming about a big bowl of mac and cheese. It remind us of your youth, but this is no kids' mac and cheese.
No matter how you get it topped, mixed and dressed up, this is food that makes you feel like you're snuggled in a warm blanket. It's comfort and coziness, right there in a piping fresh skillet.
Whether you're satisfying a craving, reliving a memory or just fueling up the family, MACS is always a great choice.
They even prep the mac to go, so you can plan for a meal at the office, on the road or just as take out. There's nothing these folks can't do with macaroni and cheese and bless them for that.
If mac and cheese isn't your thing, these guys also have a salad menu. Since they already know what they're doing with ooey-gooey cheese, they went ahead and created a killer melt menu, as well, where you'll find everything from a simple grilled cheese on up to a patty melt.
