Catering with Mac House was a breeze! I highly recommend using their services. They were easy to communicate with, early to arrive, and the food was phenomenal. 10/10 - will use again!

I would have given a 5, The food was great actually. When you order a meal that is specifically for 2 and arrive back at the hotel to find only 1 utensil I can not give a 5. We had to leave again and get more utensils. The GF pesto sandwich was out of this world. The GF smoked gouda mac and cheese was okay, a bit salty.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free

Ordered for my kid. They missed my order, then blamed me for not hearing them, while I literally just stood right beside the window and can tell them every number they called in order, but ok. Any, when the basic yellow mac finally got to us, it was so mushy that my child was disgusted by it. He's a pretty happy kid if he gets any kind of carb covered in melted cheese, but you can't even tell they're noodles anymore, it's just mush. He couldn't eat it, and I don't blame him.

The food is great the customer service very friendly but regardless of if you order online or drive up it’s a 30 minute wait. Even if you place the online order two hours ahead of time. They just cannot get their act together with their cooking

Excellent Mac n cheese. Lots of different ways to choose from. Reasonable price for what you get. The box that the Mac n cheese is served in makes for a great take home box.

Mac and cheese was steaming hot and we ordered to go. The cheese was melting and delicious, I really enjoyed building my own Mac and cheese.

Great place to eat the only thing that was disappointing was outdoor seating went on a hot day. The notorious pig was a delicious that day!

I've never had a bad experience here, they're always friendly and their mac n cheese is always absolutely delicious! The tomato basil soup is more like a warm marinara sauce, but still pretty good with the croutons

Ordered the OG and Pops lemonade. Personally, I'm not the biggest mac n cheese fan but, my wife is. She did not like it. She felt the cheese was too tart? Maybe to sharp? I thought it was ok and ate most of it. The lemonade is very good. Will probably go again to try other options.
Everything is so incredibly well marketed, packaged, and cute maybe it sets the food up to be disappointing. We ordered Mr T, Notorious PIG, The OG, and a kids meal. Literally all of the macaroni dishes were super dry and everything had bacon in it. Bacon was only listed on the Notorious PIG and that plus the dryness ruined my kids' food. My husband and I ate ours but it wasn't good. I don't know, I think we were just expecting it to be creamy or cheesy or something "comfort food" delicious. The lemonade was fantastic and the Caesar salads were okay. One more thing they don't really say is that it's mostly a take-away place. There is no indoor seating and just a handful of outdoor tables. The food is brought out to-go which we weren't expecting, nor did the other family that was there when we were.

I've been wanting to try this place after enjoying partner company, Pop's Lemonade, frequently at Baylor. People seem to take their mac 'n cheese seriously here in Texas, and I've never truly understood the hype. But, I do love fresh rosemary and think it is the perfect combination with the lemon and butter of the Mr. T Mac Daddy. Plus, you can order a nice cold, refreshing Pop's Lemonade to wash all the carbs down afterwards. PS - If you have a current Baylor ID, it will get you a little discount on your purchase :-)

Wanted to give the Mac House a try while visiting Waco. We had the Big Jim and were not disappointed! The gouda, bacon, and chives go really well together. Definitely recommend stopping by and giving it a try!

Love the variety of Mac and cheese. They have a basic Mac and cheese as well as fancier flavors. Prices are good. I also like that they have dairy-free grilled cheese.

This was our third time to eat at Franklin Ave Mac House. Every time we rave about how amazing it is. LOVE that they specify GF allergy vs preference as well. It’s a must have every time we come to Waco!
