| - Back in the day, when I used to travel all over the country, I would look forward to my visits to the south. Warmth and sunshine in the winter .... fantastic BBQ ... and Waffle House. I made it a point to stop in at least once per visit for breakfast. Now they've expanded and one is even located not that far from my home. So, before I voted today, I decided to treat myself to a Waffle House breakfast. Of course, their breakfast is served all day long, so matter what time you wake up they'll be waiting for you.
They still look the same, inside and out. I grabbed a seat at the counter and checked out the place mat/menu. My eyes immediately went to the All Star Breakfast. Get this: for under $10.00, including tax, I had coffee, a waffle, two eggs (over easy), toast, hash browns and three slices of bacon. And since they cook everything in front of you, you know everything is fresh. The eggs were nice and runny, perfect for slopping up with the toast. Bacon, cooked under that metal press thing they use, was crisp, as were the hash browns. I would have preferred the waffle been left in the maker a bit longer to crisp the outsides up some more. But, after smothering it in butter and syrup, I was happy. Just like old times!
I noticed other reviewers complained about the service, but I couldn't have been more pleased with it. They were attentive and friendly (refilled my coffee cup twice), and checked in on me numerous times. Maybe I was lucky, or maybe there is a new attitude there, but I thought the service was fine.
