The popular fast-food restaurant is known for its customizable menu, catering to lovers of all things mac and cheese.

This novel concept of a fully customizable, mac and cheese-based menu has allowed the franchise to grow in recent years. Reports of many more Long Island locations to come have been halted by the global pandemic, but expect more to appear in local areas as prospective franchise owners gain interest.

While mac and cheese is the main point of their menu, its various options allow for healthier foods and toppings. What may come as a surprise are their vegan options, including plant-based proteins and dairy-free alternatives. All of this and more are available on their menu. 

The Hauppauge location will include unique ideas for locals that set it apart from other locations. Various themes and events will be announced throughout the year, including a “Kids Eat Free” night according to I Heart Mac & Cheese. 

Check out their website for information on locations as well as their menu.
