Murray’s Cheese Shop is Opening a Macaroni and Cheese Restaurant

— February 21, 2019 — Lifestyle
Murray's Cheese, an artisanal cheese and specialty foods retailer, recently announced that it will be opening a fast-casual macaroni and cheese restaurant concept. Naturally, Murray’s Mac & Cheese is set to feature all of the cheeses from Murray's in pasta dishes—with pasta supplied by pasta maker Sfoglini, another iconic New York business.

Murray’s Mac & Cheese is set to open next to the cheese shop's Bleecker Street flagship store, making it a new hub for cheese lovers who want to do some shopping and stop by for a meal at the same time.

On-site, six signature macaroni and cheese meals will be shared, including options like the Classic with a secret blend of cheeses, Buffalo Chicken, Barbecue, French Onion and Carbonara. Murray’s Mac & Cheese will also be offering plenty of family-friendly options like the Little Mac for young ones and the Family Mac.
