Waffle de Lys

They are in Sea Isle City for the Food Truck Festival. They changed their truck from last year. The waffles were very good this year, but they were excellent last year. Service was excellent both years.

Back again this year, and they were fantastic — working throughout the heat and serving up to everyone who wanted one (or two).
Service with a smile and great accent — they were happy to chat as well as make some of the best waffles & ice cream out there.

These guys need to open up a café! I had the La Nutty waffles at a conference in Hoboken, NJ where they had a truck. Crispy waffles, Nutella, banana slices — my goodness, this was one of the best waffles I’ve had.

I’ve always been a huge fan of waffles, but I never thought they could be taken to another level like these! My favorite is the salted caramel one with bananas! Omg Heaven

Love this place and so does my 5 year old! Love the crunch of the caramelized sugar. I like to add a scoop of ice cream, hot fudge and whipped cream.

Waffle de Lys comes to Pier 13 Hoboken between the warm spring days ’til the end of summer. It’s not really a food truck, just a small portable stand. I got the La Nutty combo which came with melted Nutella, hazelnut and banana slices; I asked for no whipped cream. The amount served is good for one person and it was delicious! Their waffles aren’t cooked like Belgian waffles; I think it’s made with a different batter. The waffle was crunchy and soft on the inside with a slight bit of sweetness without the other toppings. The fruit tasted fresh and sweet.
I’m giving Waffle de Lys four stars because I felt like the price was a bit too expensive for the amount given. But I’ll definitely order again when they come back!

I got this truck at the Food Truck and Rock Carnival confused with Wafels and Dinges (not at the festival), but I did it anyway. Got Speculoos spread, raspberry coulis, whipped cream, and Belgian chocolate drizzle. I thought they were decent with the ingredients but a bit light on the chocolate. The waffle was a bit doughy for my liking. Neither a great nor a terrible value overall. I waffled (HA! HA!) between 3 and 4 stars for this place, but I feel like my comments are relatively to a minor degree. I still enjoyed the waffle despite them. This just makes me want to try Wafels and Dinges even more and compare the two.

Waffle de Lys was present right near the entrance gates at Electric Zoo this year on Randalls Island. I eventually checked them out on the third and final day.
I got the «La Nutty» combo which came with warm, melted Nutella, banana slices, whipped cream, and hazelnut pieces. Already looked like pretty amazing before I took a bite.
The waffle itself was pure deliciousness — the waffle has the perfect level of crunch, and all the sweet ingredients really worked well together without being overly sweet.
This stand looks like a nice little treasure. If you get a chance to check them out, you won’t regret it.

I was at Alba Vineyard for their first every Food Truck Festival this weekend. There were approximately 10 food trucks lined up ranging across the board with different types of food. This was by FAR our favorite. I wish we didn’t wait until the end to try it, I would have been happy with 3 rounds of this all day. Absolutely amazing!

Delicious waffles. I am personally not much of a waffle person, I like pancakes. But this food cart definitely proved me wrong. The waffle melts in your mouth. Crispy yet fluffy and flavorful. Vey light but will definitely satisfy your sweet tooth. Check them out! And their website! They are opening up a new truck soon!

So…
I’m at the Lincoln Park Music Festival this past Saturday and I’m strolling past all the food vendors that are lined up. It was around dusk and I had just eaten a fried fish sandwich an hour or so earlier. My «sweet tooth» began throbbing for something that it always craves which is… well…sweetness.
I had walked past Waffle de Lys several times and finally decided to stop at their booth and give their Belgian Waffle a try. There were several toppings to choose from so I decided to get the chocolate sauce and salted caramel sauce drizzled on top along with chopped hazelnuts. Let me tell you… it was DELICIOUS! The waffle was fluffy, moist, soft, sweet and it did not disappoint!
After finishing every morsel, I was so tempted to go back to the booth and buy a second one; however I didn’t want to be too gluttonous so I decided not to. The waffle with two toppings cost $ 6 ($ 4 for the waffle, $ 1 each for first two toppings and .50 cents for the third and beyond) and it was certainly worth it. I will definitely be patronizing Waffle de Lys again. I would take the trip to Hoboken just to indulge in the ‘goodness’ and to satisfy my sweet tooth!

My favorite is the Potato and Cheese waffle, over Salad, smother in pulled pork. Nothing like it!

Waffles de Lys. You got to try it!
Outside of flying to Brussels (expensive, but nice), this is Zee best «gauffre»! Waffle for Belgium non speaking people.
This cute French couple make the best Waffles on both sides of the Hudson. Trust me, I know after trying theirs. It is really crunchy, crispy, delicioso, wonderfully addictive melt in your mouth, full of sweet flavors that will bring you in a trip close to perfect culinary Nirvana. Once you have tried one, you’ll want another one and another one, and then it will be your daily thought until you make another trip to have one more again.
Now I really have a reason to come to New Jersey (I live in Manhattan,) the Waffle de Lys!
Trying is to Believe! your turn, Bön Appetit !

There are only two reasons why I go to Hoboken:
1) My boyfriend
2) Waffle de Lys
And if anything were to happen between me and my bf, I would still go to Hoboken for Waffle de Lys. Actually I think I put the order of importance incorrectly. First Waffle de Lys, then my bf. Yes, that’s right.
And if you think I’m silly to put Waffle de Lys ahead, well, you haven’t had waffles like theirs. I know everyone in NY raves about Waffles and Dinges, but that’s just because you haven’t had Waffle de Lys and waffles (aka gaufres in Belgium). Once you had the real stuff, you know that Waffles and Dinges is just an imitation. A very good imitation, but an imitation nonetheless.
I know my waffles because I spent a summer in Belgium being a nanny to three children and when the children were in school I wandered over to the center of town to gorge on Liege waffles.
Americans know about the thick fluffy Belgian waffles, but Liege waffles are slowly coming into prominence in NYC. Liege waffles are the smaller, lighter, crisper, sweeter, and more delicious waffles in my opinion. They’re made with crystalized sugar in the batter. Most of the nuggets melts into the batter in the griddle, but some remain in their nugget state, so you get little bites of crystalized sugar in your waffle. Topped off with whipped cream or ice cream, it’s sheer deliciousness.
Waffles and Dinges make liege waffles, but theirs are not nearly as good as what you get in Belgium.
On a hot summer day, I walked past this stand and bought one, not expecting too much. The waffle was made fresh to order. A scoop of vanilla ice cream was gently laid on the warm waffle. I eagerly brought it up to my face. One bite and I nearly cried.
It was exactly as I had remembered in Belgium. Waffle de Lys makes Liege waffles like the ones you’d find on the streets of Brussels. My superhealthy bf who barely eats sweets helped me eat this waffle. Not that I needed help. I offered him a bite and then he couldn’t help himself and ate more of it. Thank goodness I love him because I don’t share my waffles with just anyone.
They’re a little food stand and they travel all over Hoboken. Much of the time I can find them at Pier A Park in Hoboken, just off the PATH station, but they occasionally hang out a different park farther in the city. Follow them on Twitter to get their exact location for the day. @waffledelys
Go to Hoboken and have their waffles. Trust me. You won’t regret it.
