"It's a bold claim, but this mac n' cheese from Kurt Beecher Dammeier's Pure Flavor cookbook might be the world's best."

Food & Wine

"Best Grilled Cheese in the U.S.: Beecher's Handmade Cheese - Each location grills its signature Flagship cheese—a slightly nutty blend of cheddar and Gruyère cultures—with fillings like tomato and basil."

Dan Myers

"Chipotle and garlic powder lend a little smoky spice, and the finished product lives up to every expectation you might have from a shop that dares to call its mac and cheese the “World’s Best"."

Zagat

"Pioneering cheese maker Beecher's uses its distinctive Flagship on its toasty cheese, complementing its slightly nutty character with sliced tomatoes and basil, a playful take on a caprese."

Andrea Duchon

"The star of the menu (no surprise) revolves around cheese - the mac n' cheese variety, to be exact. Choose from six different options, all of which happen to pair perfectly with wine."

Carey Jones

"This Seattle import brings the rightly famous mac to its Flatiron shop, a super-creamy mix of penne pasta with Beecher’s mellow but flavorful Flagship cheese."

Tabelog

"Combined with Just Jack, spices and garlic, then intermingled with ridged penne pasta, it completes one of the simpler presentations that happens to be one of the best."

Justine Sterling

"The Best Mac and Cheese in the U.S.: Beecher's Handmade Cheese - His choice is chewier, with ridges that cling to the cheese. He mixes a bit of Jack cheese into the dish for extra gooeyness."

PureWow

"Ready for the coolest thing about eating the best grilled cheese in the city? If you order it in Beecher's Flatiron shop-slash-fromagerie, you can actually watch the signature flagship cheddar (aka the cheese you’re eating) being made from curds and whey. Yep, NYC is the best place ever."

Georgia Kral

"Beecher's ages its cheeses on site, too, so its no wonder that their prepared food is just as delicious. We recommend the fig and cheese grilled sandwich -- so sweet, with a little funk."
