When I’m looking for a down to earth, no frills good breakfast I go to wafflehouse. I’ve been a patron of waffle houses since I moved out on my own at 20 years of age and many, many years later I still find myself getting the same: cheese n eggs(scrambled) with a side of buttered grits, sausage patty and raisin toast with a glass of OJ to wash it all down. This location is ok, sometimes the grits are too lumpy, or my eggs are cooked a little harder than I want them to be. But overall I leave satisfied and not hungry, and sometimes that’s all I’m looking for. As far as cleanliness, I mean it’s decent. They could stand to do a deep clean once in a while. They always wipe the table down right before we sit. Overall: it’s not 5 stars, it’s not fancy by any means, so don’t come here expecting white glove service. It’s a get in, eat and get out type of establishment so if you are looking for food just to fill your belly, look no further than waffle house.

100% EH or average. If you’re looking for good food, try Egg Bistro. Quick, yes. Friendly service, yes. The interior is a bit messy looking, not what I would consider clean. The hash browns are pretty good but other than that, I wouldn’t really come back.

Awful service at this location! The restaurant was very dirty and the waitress, ‘Linda J’ clearly didn’t want to be there today. She practically threw our food at us. The food was good but the coffee was horrible. I won’t be returning here. I was made to feel very unwelcome.

Like any waffle house a basic diner where you get what you ask for. Pretty clean and the servers are nice. Remember to speak up and speak clearly because it can get loud when it full.

I think that if you’re over the age of 21 and live in the south of the Mason Dixon line, then you either have been to the WH or you’ve at a minimum heard about it. It’s a small greasy spoon chain restaurant, typically they are open 24 hours. This particular location is by my house. I can’t lie. Cleanliness is not up to my usual restaurant standards, so I try not to touch anything, I sit at the counter and eat using plastic utensils that I bring with me. From the counter you have a birds-eye view of everything going on in the kitchen. Food is good, for what it is. I usually get the steak and eggs and cheesy hashbrowns. It’s a good spot if you want something to eat other than IHOP, Taco Hell, Wawa, Royal Farms or Denny’s between the hours of 11PM and 5AM. It’s the WAFFLEHOUSE not Morton’s Steakhouse. Don’t go with high expectations of excellent service or amazing food. It’s a greasy spoon.

I’m not rating this as a 3 star because it’s a great restaurant that everyone should consider as the best… But it delivers exactly what you should come to expect from a 24-hour quick in and out local spot to get some food to cure your hunger pains or hangover. The servers barely make money and it shows. The place is not the cleanest, so take a few wipes or ask the waitress to clean your table. There’s probably a guarantee that you’ll be better off cleaning it yourself since the server is used to everyone cleaning around them before they eat. My recommendation is to sit at the bar… if you can… Build rapport with the cook & server… And you’ll pretty much get a very decent experience at a low cost. Tip well and they will remember you on your next visit.

The worst place to eat. The food was awful. The silverware was dirty, but what made it so bad was the server asked did we want need hot water for the silverware. When the food arrived the server’s thumb on the side of the scramble eggs, the butter sat on top of the waffle which had stuff stuck on the bottom and the syrup container was all sticky with stuff all on it. Last but not least, the water tasted gritty after it was refilled. I will not go back to this place ever again.

What do you expect from a Waffle House? They are all dirty I think. I was glad that no one was smoking. That morning I just needed a waffle, some eggs, and some greasy hash browns… and waffle house delivered. The place is dirty, the waitresses are rough, and the cooks look like they just got out for good behavior. But the food was down home greasy and good. Dont go here if you are expecting 5 star dining. Go here if you want to fill your belly(fairly cheaply), get a decent cup of coffee, and are feeding a hangover.

It’s a waffle house! Good cheap food quick. Onecomplaint is the weird small booths? I haven’t seen that at any other Waffle Houses in the area, maybe it is a new thing. Another complaint would be when someone orders onions/jalapenos the vapors from cooking said food fills the air and can irritate your eyes. Other than that the staff seem very friendly but tend to rush you if you are visiting in the morning on the weekend.

My family here in Virginia told me that The Waffle House is seen throughout the east coast so I was eager to try this place. I thought it was terrible. We walked in and they had tiny booths. Good enough to fit 2 people. There were probably 2 large booths but those were occupied. Most of the tables were filfthy. We found one that was a tad clean so we decided to sit there. I decided to get one buttermilk waffle. She brought out the waffle but she took awhile to find the syrup and bring it back. I thought my food wouldn’t take that long. My brother who ordered more food than I did came out before my one waffle. The waffle was good. Very thin but I shouldn’t expect much since it was less than $ 2. Well they cook everything out in the open. I thought that was terrible. Their air vent things must have not been working that day I went in because while we were eating it just got smokey EVERYWHERE. We came out smelling like waffles. If you enjoy that smell then eat there. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
