A brief history of Waffle House (Eater.com)
- Thread starter RBH
- Start date
Me and my Dad often go at like 4 in the morning on Saturdays before we go to the hardware store or grocery shopping. Its always freezing in there so the windows are always full of condensation. I love the friendly atmosphere though and the 70s diner feel.
Cant go wrong with early morning Waffle House!

My boyfriend and I will sometimes go there when he gets home from work at 2:30AM. I love it, and am glad we have them up here in north-eastern Ohio.

As a manager trainee for waffle house. Never go on the other side gaf. You'll learn to hate the company side of the store. For example, all and I mean ALL waffle houses are running with about half the staff of a normal restaurant. Also loads of stress you wouldn't believe.
Yeah....I can only imagine. I always feel for some WH I go to during the late night/early morning rush =/
Only been there once when I was a kid. Got the fried shrimp. From what I remember it was OK. Been wanting go back recently, but my ex was afraid she'd get shot or something. -_-
If you don't mind my asking, why are you grocery shopping so early?
This post is more responsible for the USA being fucked than Waffle House is.
All my life it's been there. I don't go there quite as often as an adult, but god damn I love you Waffle House.
There's something just so special about it. There's this strange feeling I get whenever I am esting one and look out the window, I feel like I'm out of town or something.

I ate there after my restaurant shift ended every night. I'd eat there every once and awhile after that... It's been awhile, I miss it... Sogood.gif

I've worked in a lot of kitchens and let me tell you, there's flies buzzing around in every single one of them, especially during the warmer months of the year, and they land on freaking everything. Especially cheese. They really like cheese.
Truth. The Northeast has tons of independently run diners, which are a billion times better than these things. When I see a Waffle House I know I'm getting close to an interstate, shitty traffic, and dehumanizing strip mall architecture.
Behold your true Waffle God, GAF

It makes no real since in my book other than corporate office must be greedy as hell. Most other restaurants hire people to clean dishes but at waffle house as many of you know we have the sales people wash the dishes. Which is profoundly dumb in my book but they a "debt free company" so they don't hire people unless they need to. But we also have super high turn over.

I'll never forget the time that a woman ran in at like 3am, yelled "Lil' Wayne is dead!" and ran out.
The sink in the men's restroom didn't work, and my friend asked for a cup of boiling water to stick his fork in.
