Waffle House

Fast, friendly service. Meal prepared as ordered, and was delicious.
Covered, diced, peppered, country.

I love the Waffle House chain. This one is home to a happy bunch of ladies with great attitudes. My mom, dad and my kids all met up here and these girls greeted us as soon as we walked in the door with a «Good morning! How are y’all doing?» big smiles, pleasant conversation, quick extra seating for the one person who couldn’t squeeze in the booth. My mom got a comment on her Christmas sweater, so she was happy, which in effect made all of us even happier! Food was quick and on point. Tasty! Great quality in the food set in front of us. I always say, you like your job, you do your job well and these girls seemed to love their job. It showed in every corner of that place. You could tell who was in charge of the kitchen and not one person was standing around. Great job!

I have stopped at Waffle House for over 30 years now. I love their fluffy omelets and rich coffee.
Walked in a little after midnight. There were no customers in the place and both employees were sitting at a table. The guy looked like he was sleeping and the girl was eating a sandwich and drinking coffee.
I ordered a ham and cheese omelet, hash browns and a side of bacon. They served my food and went back and sat down. After a few minutes I realized they forgot my bacon, so I asked the girl. She turned and started yelling at the guy because he forgot my bacon. He said I didn’t hear you and went back to playing with his phone. The girl got up and cooked my bacon.
This isn’t the Waffle House I remember. With service like this, I’m not surprised that I was the only customer here tonight.

This Charlottesville location is your typical «Waffle House» experience — mainly only a good idea if it is very late (and there is nothing else open), or if you are intoxicated (and there is still nothing else open) I have only eaten at this location once, and I will not go back.
All the employees were extremely rude, and it took them well over 15 minutes to even acknowledge that I was in the restaurant — even though it was 3am, and there were only a handful of other customers at the store. The person who came over to take my order seemed annoyed that I was even there, and simply mumbled and rolled her eyes at me. I had to ask her to repeat herself multiple times, and this was to just order a cheeseburger.
None of the employees could seem to get a grip on any of the other outstanding patrons that were also dining at the establishment, as all of them were extremely intoxicated and were being very loud and obnoxious. It wouldn’t have surprised me if all the employees were under the influence of illegal substances or drunk as well.
When my food finally arrived, it was very sloppily made and the taste was very bland. The waitress again seemed annoyed that I made the simple request for some ketchup to go with my French fries.
It was finally time to pay, where I had to actually request the attention of an employee, who was standing up slouched over the counter tapping away at her cell phone. When I handed her exact change, she had the nerve to make the comment somewhere along the lines of «you’re not going to leave a tip?» to which I replied absolutely not. Under her breath I heard her mumble «Wow» — could an employee of a restaurant (or of any establishment) be anymore rude?!
I didn’t expect too much when I planned on coming to this five star Waffle House in Charlottesville, however I did not expect it to be this big of a joke.
As previously stated, I will never go back, and I would never recommend this place to anyone. However, if you enjoy food (and service) that reminds you of your luxurious experience of an elementary school cafeteria, by all means be my guest and have a blast!

Horrible service it took them 23 min to take my order. This is ridiculous. I have never had this experience with waffle house.

When you are in the South, you must Waffle House!!! This Waffle House lives up to the chain’s reputation — good food and sassy waitresses.

Great Peach waffle! Friendly wait staff. I’m only giving 3 stars because my party of 4 could not sit in the same booth. There is only one 4-​seater booth but it was occupied by a party of 1.

I was back in C’Ville for my reunion at UVA and I was really excited about hitting up my old stomping grounds, but boy, was I disappointed. The food came out so piecemeal that I couldn’t enjoy anything together. And nothing tasted good… everything was either dry, soggy, flavorless, or not made the way I had asked for it. I don’t know if my expectations were too high… I mean I know it’s just WH… but it was straight gross. SMH.

This waffle house needs some help today. Cook was over cooking everything! I asked for an over lite egg on me Cheese steak melt and it came over hard. The hash browns were burnt as well. It was even that busy in here. Really disappointed with my waffle house experience because I really love going to waffle house. Try to get to it when there is on in the towns we go to. This cook, who ever he is needs help! Needs to learn how to cook and not burn everything! So disappointed! Did I mention that I was disappointed? Very!

Waffle House has all of the breakfast classics on the menu. Expect home-​style cooking and plating. At this location, the waitresses seemed more interested in socializing amongst themselves rather then tending to the paying customers. There is more left to be desired on the customer service front. For example, I was given my coffee, but no creamer. I had to wait 5 minutes before she realized she never gave me creamer… petty perhaps, but it is a key detail when serving coffee.

I come to Charlottesville to visit family and am always seeking the perfect spots to prove why I’m my niece and two nephews’ favorite uncle. The food, but most importantly, the staff make this a solid choice for winning helping me win this title.
I have been here multiple times and each time, the staff has taken extra care of us. We always get waffles and hot chocolate — even in 80 degree August weather. And what really makes it for the kids is the whipped cream. Although the portion was more reasonable when I went with the kids and their Dad this morning, when I took them on my own, it’s like they knew they had a role in my mission and they gave each kid whipped cream towers atop hot chocolate half a foot high. Both were sick, but the aerosol whipped cream towers won them over.
The food itself is WaHoo standard fare and is perfect for either breakfast with kids, ending a late night, or stopping off of I64 for some eggs & bacon.

This place was crazy busy. Tables were dirty and not really wiped down before you snagged one. But you grab what you can get! What do expect? It’s a Waffle House. Our waitress was slammed but she was funny and nice. The food was delicious. Pretty good place by Waffle House standards I’d say! Just know what you’re getting with a WH.

Went to the Waffle House for breakfast while in the area for UVA graduation. The food was fine, but I think you can get better at a standard diner. The gravy was lacking in flavor and the grits were disappointing, though the omelette was very good. Service was good as well, it overall the experience was only ok.

First time at a Waffle House, and I will say I was happy with the price of the food and what I got. For $ 2, I got a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was heated up on the grill on both sides and apparently very buttered because when I started eating the sandwich, the biscuit was super hot and crumbly. Yum.
Boyfriend and I shared a large order of homefries. Too much for the both of us. He ordered coffee, two eggs over easy, grits, and wheat toast.
For the two of us, it cost $ 12.62. For the friendly waitress, Loretta, we ended up paying $ 15.00 for the two of us.
Seating is seat yourself, and it can get chaotic and confusing but it works.

Loud country music and flies. I couldn’t even sit down.

Best waffle house I think I’ve ever been to! Certainly the cleanest!
Everything was great — people were nice and service awesome! If you are in this part of Virginia — definitely stop in here for breakfast!!!

It’s the waffle house. a couple eggs, some bacon and toast is my staple. love it, but hate it all at the same time. The service was good here. Why do I always have a hangover the morning after I visit the Waffle House?

I love me some Waffle House! The only chain I would be more excited to have open a location near me would be White Castle. In the absence of a Waffle House near home, I make it a point to stop here every time I pass through Charlottesville, and it does not disappoint.
Somehow they seem to make every Waffle House exactly the same, not just the building, but the staff and the atmosphere. It’s not what you would call «high-​class», but that’s part of the charm. At least one waitress in each location is disgruntled at all times, but the rest will be really friendly. The cooks will be working hard whether there are three tables full or a line out the door waiting. And most importantly, your coffee will be topped off constantly.
The food at this location is just like every other Waffle House; hot, tasty, filling, and cheap. I am a big fan of the cheesesteak omelet, but if you are not in the mood for a greasy gut-​bomb, the pecan waffle is pretty much unbeatable. And whatever you do, do NOT miss out on the hash browns!

This is perhaps the cleanest Waffle House in America. I’m giving it a ⁴⁄₅ in the context that it’s still just a waffle house and they’d have to do something extraordinary to earn a fifth star. The staff was very nice had a good rapport with the customers. I got my food in less than 10 minutes of entering the restaurant and had no issues. If you’re in the mood for a decent, cheap bite, come here.

What a disappointing experience. My friend and I were driving down from Philly/​NYC to visit our friend at UVA and I urged my friend to stop at a Waffle House. I was going purely off nostalgic instinct because I had a great memory of a waffle house when I was a child.
Boy If I could punch my self as a child I would. We walked in to a horribly desolate restaurant with one disgruntled employee. I tried to be over exuberant to get her in a better mood but to no avail. After we ordered which took about 10 minutes because she was so slow, I asked her if we could eat our meals here instead of go. After this, two amazing things proceeded to happen:
1. She said it was impossible to change the order (which it clearly wasn’t because she did nothing to prepare it)
2. a TO-​GO Tax
I don’t know about you but I’ve never heard of a TO GO tax, and for all I know it was just a scam she pulled to put more money in her own pocket.
As for the food, it was OK, nothing I couldn’t get at another fast food joint. The meat was cheap, the coffee tasted like plastic. Thank god I was super hungry.
I’d be willing to hit up another waffle house hoping this was an anomaly. BUt this one, NEVER again
