Kokomo Kids Eat
Macaroni and Cheese from Hawg Heaven
425 W. Defenbaugh St., Kokomo, IN 46902 | (765) 450-6584
https://www.hawgheaveneats.com/
When you think of Hawg Heaven, meat might come to mind first, but don’t overlook their housemade sides. Our family shared their macaroni and cheese, and once the kids realized it was just as delicious—despite being different from their usual boxed version—it earned rave reviews. We agreed the pasta was a hit because it was creamy and extra cheesy. Families can share a side like we did or choose it as a kids’ menu option, which includes a side and a drink. For the full menu, visit the Hawg Heaven website.
