What happened after Man v. Food?
The same Manchester, New Hampshire episode (aired 2019-10-29) also featured Mr. Mac's, a restaurant built around skillet-baked macaroni and cheese. Per its own website, Mr. Mac's bakes each order to order using gourmet cheeses and premium pasta, offering more than twenty signature mac-and-cheese entrees as well as a build-your-own option. The restaurant operates from a Hooksett Road location in Manchester and, according to its site, takes reservations and serves lunch through dinner daily. Mr. Mac's has since grown into a small multi-location concept, with a separate franchise-inquiry page on its website inviting operators interested in opening additional locations. A Yelp listing for the Manchester restaurant, updated September 2026, shows several hundred reviews, and the business's own site continues to list the same Hooksett Road address and current hours, indicating it remains open there.
