About the Business

Specialties

At Homeroom, we make mac + cheese, and a lot of it! Each mac is made-to-order hot and fresh, the only way a mac snob likes.

History

Established in 2011.

The story of Homeroom began one rainy night when our founder, Erin Wade, got a sudden craving for mac and cheese. Coming home from a long day as a lawyer, she realized that there was no restaurant she could go to that would have mac and cheese as delicious as the one she grew up eating -- so she pulled up her dad's family recipe and started cooking. Within a month, she'd boxed up her law degree and committed herself to chasing this crazy, delicious dream. Homeroom opened on Valentine's Day 2011, and it's been a labor of love ever since. Homeroom employs a kick-butt, diverse team and makes every mac to order using our founder's family recipe.

The story of Homeroom began one rainy night when Erin Wade got a sudden craving for mac and cheese. Coming home from a long day as a lawyer, she realized that there was no restaurant she could go to that would have mac and cheese as delicious as the one she grew up eating--so she pulled up her dad's family recipe and started cooking.  Her craving, and the warm feeling that came with satisfying it, made her realize that she wanted to open the kind of restaurant she wished she could've gone to that night: a friendly, familiar place serving up the best mac and cheese on earth. Within a month, she'd boxed up her law degree and committed herself to chasing this crazy, delicious dream!
