Waffle House

Food was good, service was ok but for God’s sake and OURS clean that dump up. Windows, floors and walls are filthy as is everything else. I was almost afraid to eat the food. The one in North Canton is spotless!

When you are lucky enough to be near a waffle house. so we stopped while in neighborhood. 2 pm and we ordered breakfast served hot and cooked in front of us. we sat at «bar». Service was good. Attentive asking if we needed anything else. Yes… a couch for a nap! I had requested bacon well done and that’s what I received cheesy eggs and shredded hasbrowns. Fiancé had sausage patties and scrambled eggs and hasbrowns. He was pleased. The only negative I could say was it was cold in restaurant. other than that would recommend anytime want a quick breakfast that’s served fresh.

so… first off let me say that we went here (2 friends and I) at 3 am after a long concert. we were really obnoxiously drunk…
we went in and were really loud and obnoxious (I’m sorry Waffle House employees again!) but we had a great time. I run 2 restaurants and both are open late, so I know how much trouble late night staff can be but the staff was the best staff I have come across in a longgggg time. they knew we were wrecked and still had a great attitude and actually held full on conversations with us and joked with us (as well as other patrons) I wish I would have gotten the employees names so I could make this more useful but like I said, I wasn’t in the sober mind set. there was a white woman maybe in her 40s and an African American man maybe in his late 20s. they had a great time with us and actually made it known. the whole time we kept apologizing about how obnoxious we were but they kept saying no we are great and we are fun. we were only in town for the night and we are so glad we came to this Waffle House. they actually even gave us a big «hash browns with EVERYTHING» plate to go to nurse out hangovers in the morning. it goes without saying we tipped them very generously.
just wanted to say thank you guys for that great night! it was ⁶⁄₂₂ a Monday night. I hope someone sees this and takes the time to see who was working around 3am and does something to make them smile.
go here. tip them well. they rule.

It’s a busy Saturday morning but we snagged a couple spots at the bar. We had a number of minutes pass before our order was taken but that wasn’t before I heard one server complain about not getting raises and another about having to do separate checks for people. Needless to say this didn’t start out on a high note. I didn’t have high hopes for a Waffle House but this one had 3 ½ stars so I was trying to think positively!
My husband and I ordered the same thing… cheese n’ eggs. We were really living it up so we got chili on top of our hashbrowns too.
The food arrived quickly and it was hot. My husband described the chili as «not very good yet better than I expected» which I found to be quite accurate.

This Waffle House ranks in the top 10% of all the Waffle Houses I’ve eaten at. I like to get here right after the drunks leave and the morning crowd starts arriving. This particular location has always been clean and staffed with friendly servers and cooks that know the difference between an egg that is medium and one that is over easy. I’m really vanilla when it comes to breakfast it’s either a waffle or pancakes with bacon or an all America. Breakfast of eggs, bacon, grits and toast pretty simply and always well done here.
The coffee is better here than most locations I’ve been to it must be the water, Akron’s water supply comes from surface water (lakes verses well water drawn from the aquifer). Pay attention when pulling in you can drive right by the driveway and it’s a pain coming from the opposite direction I’ll leave it up to you to guess which direction that is.

I have such conflicting feelings about this place. On the one hand, my expectations are not set that high when I come here to eat. Typically, I stop in to eat a quick breakfast meal after working the graveyard shift when the emphasis is not on quality, but on quick service. With that being said, there have been a few times when various aspects of the service here have been mildly irritating. I’ve eaten here on multiple occasions, which has given me a pretty good sampling of what the service and food quality here is like and I’ll do my best to capture it below.
When I visited this place semi-​frequently a few months ago, I often asked that they top my omelette with chili. For some unknown reason, a variety of servers kept forgetting to fulfill that request. However, on one recent occasion, I was happy to have found a server who remembered this request without being reminded of it. Despite that, one of the cooks showed me a large pot of chili and asked me what I thought of how it looked. I looked at it, shrugged my shoulders, and told him it looked fine to me even though I wasn’t really in the mood to be giving such culinary opinions to the cook. I then learned that the cook who posed the question had been asked (by his manager, I’m guessing) to discard what he had judged to be chili that was too old to serve. The cook had solicited my opinion, in part, as a means of defending his view that the chili was still good. I’d rather not be involved in such intra-​employee debates, yet I simultaneously appreciated the honesty with which my opinion had been solicited. It was an awkward encounter (to me, anyway), but I didn’t detect anything abnormal about my food. I suppose that’s the ultimate barometer.
Many of the servers and cooks have been conversational with me at this establishment. On the one hand, when the employee is socially adept, it has given the place a hint of good, old-​fashioned hospitality. On the other hand, when some servers have lacked social graces in their attempts at conversation, their failed attempts at being friendly have caused discomfort instead of ease.
All things considered, this is the Waffle House. If you’ve been to one, you’ve probably been to them all. The chief value of a dining establishment like this is not its pizzaz; it’s the functionality. The place is open 24-​hours a day, every day of the year, which is why FEMA administrator Craig Fugate uses the status of Waffle Houses nationwide as a barometer for how badly a community has been ravaged by a disaster. What the Waffle House lacks in social graces, it makes up for by the sheer fact that is it works even when it’s half broken. And for that, I salute the Waffle House with three stars.

If there’s one thing I love more than dessert, it’s breakfast. I can eat breakfast any time of day, too. Lunch, dinner and the obvious, breakfast. What does Waffle House sell? Breakfast — all day long. Cheap, good, hot diner breakfast. With waffles. You can get add-​ons to your hashbrowns too. It’s like Christmas every time I encounter one of these on my travels. Too bad they don’t have them in California. On the other hand, if they did, I’d have to start investing in moo-moo’s. Love this place. Looking forward to going back on my next trip.

Being from the south, I’m a bit of a Waffle House connoisseur. Just ate here before our flight out and felt compelled to review. Best food & most well-​run Waffle House I’ve encountered in a long time. The hashbrowns that we ordered crispy were perfectly so, and the bread on our sandwiches was toasted & buttery, not soggy at all. And the staff was chatty & friendly– seemed to know everyone who came in. Such a pleasant way to start our day of long travel!

I was compelled to come here because the name Waffle House is constantly referred to by hip hop artists. As is typical of most roadside diners, the place was a bit cramped and the menu items, although priced affordable and served promptly, ranks below Denny’s in terms of quality.
They make waffles with chocolate chips, waffles with fruit bits, burgers, sandwiches, sweet tea, etc… the typical diner. The meal was edible, but incredibly greasy.
In light of this, it would be prudent to consider other dining options in the area, such as Panera Bread or IHOP.
By the way, notice that I refrained from using the word ‘food’ on this review; mainly because it isn’t even food as I understand the definition.

I live in So Cal and we do not have waffle house. When I use to travel and race cars I would eat at waffle houses all across the country. I happened to be in OH and stopped in for breakfast for fun, brings back memories. Food is average but cheap, however our service was A+
