welcome to homeroom

Hi there! We’re Allison and Erin, owners of the mac and cheese restaurant homeroom. We hope to see you soon to share a mac and cheese with us!

Homeroom specializes in macaroni and cheese made with artisanal cheeses from local cheesemakers, but we’re much more than a mac and cheese shop. We also carry nostalgic treats like homemade oreos and peanut butter pie, tasty veggie sides, homemade soups and a great selection of local craft beers and wine. We even have a beer float, with Old Rasputin stout and vanilla ice cream.
