I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
It’s no secret that mac and cheese is the ultimate comfort food in this country. This delicious combination of pasta and cheese sticks to your ribs in a way nothing else can and it’s a food that people of all ages can enjoy. There’s one off-the-beaten-path eatery in Michigan that has some of the most incredible mac and cheese you’ll ever have. And while Clarkston Union Bar & Kitchen is a bit out of the way for many of you, plan on visiting it at some point just to try its lobster mac and cheese.
Clarkston, a city lying on the outskirts of Detroit, is home to an eatery that offers some of the best American comfort food in Michigan.
Clarkston Union Bar & Kitchen not only offers delicious cuisine but an ambiance that can't be beat. Inside you'll find real wood tables as well as wooden pews and stained glass, making this one of the most unique places you can dine.
Serving up delectable comfort cuisine, Clarkston Union has become a popular establishment over the years. It's one of the best places to satisfy your hunger in the Detroit metro area.
While you can certainly grab a burger, a salad, a grilled cheese, a turkey melt, or sausages here, there's another section of the menu you should consider ordering from.
The mac and cheese here is the most comforting of all the comfort foods on the menu. You can certainly order plain mac and cheese and perhaps you'll want to add some house-cut ham to it.
But why not be a bit more daring and, dare we say, order the lobster mac and cheese instead? You'll still get all the deliciousness of the original mac and cheese, however...
...with the addition of Maine lobster, roasted jalapeños, scallions, sweet peppers, and pepper jack cheese, Clarkston Union takes mac and cheese to a whole other level with this dish!
