If the crew is heading out to happy hour this season, make sure to stop by Black Bear Bar & Grill downtown for a fun take on mac and cheese. The Blazing Buffalo Mac & Cheese is next-level. This is the appetizer to split with a group  – or as a main dish (it’s so good, you’ll want it all to yourself).

A must-try in the Mile Square is The Ainsworth’s Mac & Cheese Burger.  It has three layers of cheesy goodness: it comes with panko-crusted mac and cheese, a hamburger, and MORE mac and cheese on the top. Talk about a mac and cheese lover’s paradise. The fries on the side are also delish at this waterfront spot. An ideal dish for any cheesy craving.

Ay Dios Mio! Not only a feeling but also the name of the creamy chipotle mac-n-cheese, Mexican string cheese, cilantro pizza at this local Hoboken + Jersey City gem. A real slice of heavenly and cheesy goodness. Patrons won’t have to decide between pizza or mac and cheese with this one.

Mac and cheese – but make it fried. The Fried Mac and Cheese Pops at Left Bank Burger Bar are the ultimate comfort food and make for a great appetizer or shared plate at this Jersey City spot. Served with buttermilk ranch, once you try these you’ll want to order them every time you visit.

Pinwheel Garden | 318 Communipaw Avenue

This neighborhood favorite describes itself as serving ‘remixed’ Asian and American classics. The menu is filled with a riff on the classics, and the Mac and Cheese Dumplings are no different. The hand-folded dumplings are filled with a three-cheese blend and cavatappi pasta and served with a caramelized chive and cheese dipping sauce. Dumplings are on the appetizer menu, but go ahead and make it an entree – they’re that good.

Can’t say we’ve ever seen black garlic mac & cheese before – but now it’s impossible to imagine a life without it. This starter at Mathew’s Food & Drink is special to the area. While sipping on one of Mathew’s signature cocktails, this is the perfect snack to order.

Wurstbar | 516 Jersey Avenue

Hot dogs and sausages are a staple menu item at this Chilltown spot. The Bacon Mac hot dog is particularly inventive. With it comes a standard beef frank, the Haus Mac N’ Cheese, and bacon. This take on mac and cheese is not to be missed – we recommend pairing it with an ice-cold beer or cider from Wurstbar.
