10 places to eat … macaroni cheese!
Whether it be a starter or a side, lunch or dinner, here's some of Glasgow and Edinburgh's cheesy highlights, brought to your by Yelpers.
Guy's
24 Candleriggs, Merchant City Glasgow
Galloway cheddar macaroni cheese and garlic bread features on Guy's pre-theatre menu. Ryan W loved how "child and allergy friendly they were" and gives them credit for their "chatty and friendly staff".
Mums
4a Forest Road, Edinburgh
Gillian L raves, "I've never had a duff meal in Mum's - everything is just simple and delicious and spot-on. You want sausages and mash? Macaroni cheese? Fish pie? They all taste like my Mum's hiding round the corner cooking for me!"
Kelvingrove Café
1163 Argyle Street, Glasgow West End
This "uber trendy" bar has an impressive food menu and features "mac cheese with salt beef". Pammi G liked the salted beef, "which came in tasty large pieces in the mac - definitely the prominent flavour in the dish so it was more mac and salted beef than mac and cheese".
Steak
14 Picardy Place, Edinburgh
"We opted for the steak & shake deal which is 200g rump steak with a side of fries, bearnaise sauce, and a milkshake and added truffle macaroni and cheese… so delicious!' says Robyn Z.
Meat Bar
142 West Regent Street, Glasgow City Centre
With a menu mostly featuring meat, you'll be pleased to know you can get a refreshing side of mac and cheese! Trudie M sums up her visit - "great beers, awesome food, very busy for a weeknight and good music".
The Albanach
197 High Street, Edinburgh
"I suddenly eyed the "Mull of Kintyre Macaroni"… I scarfed up every bite of the gooey macaroni goodness", says Benjamin L.
Sloans
62 Argyll Arcade, Glasgow City Centre
The unofficial home of macaroni cheese in Glasgow and the monthly Scottish Macaroni Appreciation Club (SMAC) dinners, you'll find a wide range of choices on the menu. The legendary macaroni cheese comes with fries and optional extras include haddock, bacon, Gruyere, Parmesan or tomatoes!
Asti
73 Broughton Street, Edinburgh
David S tried "maccheroni al formaggio - the best macaroni cheese I have had in a good long time!"
Tibo
443 Duke Street, Glasgow East End
Christian B says the mac here looks "oh-so-cosyly-good". This "decent wee spot" is worth a visit for the mac alone!
The Ship on the Shore
24 The Shore, Edinburgh
"I'll admit macaroni and cheese is a weird thing to order at a seafood restaurant", concedes Avitania B, "but it was absolutely delicious. Creamy roux, perfectly cooked pasta, and accompanied by a lightly dressed salad and French fries. Yum."
