I've heard the rumors and yes, I can now confirm that Beecher's mac and cheese is the best mac and cheese in the world! Known for their specialty cheeses, Beecher's Handmade Cheese has a cafe in Seattle that's dishing out all things cheesy and I was lucky enough to snag a bite.
Beecher's is so confident in their cheese, they are making it right in their storefront window! It's almost like they are daring you to come in and try a bite, showing off the fact that their natural cheese has nothing to hide. Beecher's only uses premium, natural ingredients and doesn't add any preservatives, colorings, or flavor enhancers.
I came to Beecher's for their mac and cheese but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tempted by their other cheese-centric menu items. I am sure they make an amazing tomato soup and grilled cheese but I can confidently say that Beecher's mac and cheese is something you have to try!
Beecher's mac and cheese is unlike any mac and cheese I have ever had. Usually restaurants load up their mac and cheese with heavy ingredients and I can only take one bite before I've had enough. This dish on the other hand is creamy, silky, and full of flavor! I was delighted to see they swapped the classic elbow noodle for penne pasta and added a pinch of chipotle chili powder for a touch of heat. I finished my cup in 5 minutes flat, a new record for me!
Beecher's Handmade Cheese is located right across the street from Pike Market - you can't miss it. And don't be discouraged if you see a line out the door, it moves fast!
