Waffle House

I absolutely 💯 love going to waffle house! The staff is always friendly & it's a very open & clean little place with awesome food. I normally always eat just breakfast because it is kinda their thing but they also have lunch items, sandwiches,& the kids meal is very filling for the little ones. The prices are good and I never feel a rush to eat and just leave. I actually enjoy just chilling, drinking coffee with whomever I'm with at the time, and just having a conversation.

I haven’t been to a waffle house in several years, but I decided to go this morning, thinking I’d get a cheap & fast breakfast. My first clue that it would not be fast was that they had no coffee made at 6 o’clock in the morning. At Waffle House. No coffee. Lol. I ordered a two egg breakfast but the lady couldn’t start cooking it until she found a Band-Aid because she cut her finger. Eventually I got my coffee and my food. While I was waiting, I noticed there was a lot of old food stuck to the front and tops and sides of the equipment behind the counter. Some tables and counters were also dirty. Looking around there are only two other people there and I just can’t imagine they were very busy before I got there. So kind of seems like there was plenty of time to do some cleaning but it just didn’t get done. My bill was about $10.25 for a two egg breakfast and a coffee. Pretty sure I can do better and get cleaner facilities and faster service.

I gave this place 2 stars due to the girl that actually served me (thick brunette) and the cook (thick older lady) otherwise, I’d have given less. I wish I had gotten their names, because they were gems 💎 I’ve been in MO for about a week now and have experienced more racist acts here, than I have ANYWHERE on earth. When I entered this setting, there was a blonde waitress who looked through me. Wish I had gotten her name. She continuously walked past me as if I did not exist, and then proceeded to seat a table of four (white) and served them while continuing to ignore me. The woman who finally served me, acknowledged me by saying, “I’d be with you in a moment” which is all I wanted. Acknowledgment that I was THERE. After she waited on the tables she had before me, she waited on me and the cook came to her and asked my order and made it PERFECTLY! These two ladies displayed NOTHING but professionalism and I had no reason to play the race card there. But to the ugly blonde: thank you for being openly racist. I think I can speak for all black people in saying, we appreciate it when one is not in the closet about their hate for us. Because I have never met you in my life, I know I’ve done you NO wrong. What goes around comes around …
