Do fights actually break out at these things or is it a meme?
Explain like I’m a foreigner.
They’re open pretty much all the time and don’t close at night, so naturally drunks and other rowdy folk congregate there. Prime time for fights to break out over silly minor things, which often turn physical. There’s a reason most restaurants shut their dining rooms down by midnight.
Do they also have like kebab/swarma places that are open 24/7? Where I live drunk people always seem to want to eat something like that.
Can’t imagine getting drunk and thinks let’s get a waffle.
You don’t go to waffle House for waffles. The bloodhound gang didn’t sing about waffles.
“Want you smothered, want you covered like waffle House hash browns”
Dunno about you but I’ve never not crashed hash browns while hammered
In New Jersey we have 24/7 diners. You can get breakfast or a burger, or whatever you want basically. Don’t knock a 2 AM drunken pancake until you’ve tried it!
Oh they do all breakfast foods. Get bacon and eggs or some other fried something if you want.
Also, I’m the kinda person that gets drunk and eats waffles
No one starts shit around a kebab guy tho. They have seen it all and if you start a fight they will finish it for you.

Well, not anywhere in america. https://locations.wafflehouse.com/
Not really anywhere. Statistically likely to be in the southeast, adjacent to a major highway.
Currently at Waffle House. It’s a waffle home. 🖤
The Waffle Hose Index for the uninitiated [Link] was a moderatly usefull (and humerous) idea thought up by the US Federal Emergency Managment Aganecy (FEMA) to determine the accessability of the area after a disaster.
It takes time to get to an area, even longer if the roads are damaged, so one of the first things to do is to try and call someone local. Waffle House happens to be open 24-7, and has an unusually comprehensive emergency preparedness policy. In a lot of cases they can run for days on a limited menu without power and running water. The only reasons they would not pick up the phone is that telecommunications were down (which FEMA would want to know anyway), that the staff cant get to the resturant (which is also usefull to know) or that the resturant is gone and Amaerica is down one of its finest off-hours eating establishments.
Fascinating and adding it to my haul of TIL!
Thank you very much!
Yo I’m going to Waffle House in like half an hour. I’m pumped. Haven’t been there in years.
There’s always time for one more bad decision, lol.
I always used to laugh at the scene in Best In Show where the yuppie couple talk about how they met at Starbucks. But they weren’t at the same Starbucks, they were at two different Starbucks across the street from each other.
During a trip to the Atlanta area, I saw so many Waffle House locations that I jokingly made a reference to that scene from Best In Show.
Then IT happened. Literally drove past a spot where there were 2 Waffle Houses across the street from each other. It was supposed to be a joke. Only a joke.
In New England you’ll find Dunkin Doughnuts across from each other.
The only place I know in Atlanta that has a waffle house across from another is in Avondale estates where the very first waffle house is located. It’s a museum now that is hardly ever open and across the street is a newer more modern waffle house. I bet you were over there lol.
I suppose it’s possible, but I don’t think that’s it.
The trip when this happened was 7+ years ago (pre-covid for sure), so I don’t recall the specific location, but it wasn’t in Atlanta proper. And I don’t recall either location looking like a museum or a location where anybody would put a museum, it was a stretch of road/highway with retail space / strip malls on both sides.
pretty fucking solid hash browns from coast to coast.
The gulf coast? There’s certainly no Waffle Houses on the West Coast.
valid. damn.
Trust me I was just as devastated to find this out, myself
This photo is fake. Affle house is never that empty.
You’ve never been to one at 3 a.m.
Consider yourself lucky. It’s like they opened haunted houses that serve food all over America.
My local waffle house is very often that empty. Day or night. I actually find it interesting that they can afford to operate with how few customers they have at any given time.
Ah good it’s still open. Not the end of the world… or at least the end of America yet.
Does it have a fear hole tho?
I feel kinda cheated that we didn’t get to see Rick’s fear. Maybe it would have been happiness, but that was just speculation on Morty’s mind’s part.

Waffle House is a cheap American food chain that can be found in all southeastern areas, including low-income high-crime districts. Because of this, there are regularly news stories about people fighting at or in a waffle house. It’s become a meme.
I’ve never been to one since I’ve never been to the south. How’s the food?
The food is diner food. Not bad for what you pay for it. Tastes amazing when drunk or high. It’s a staple in the Midwest and the South!
It’s not world class but sometimes it’s exactly what you need.
I would choose Waffle House over Denny’s, but would rather go to a regular non-chain diner over either of those.
I hope that makes sense because it was the best way I could think of to rank it
Yeah, I get that. We have a really good family-owned place that my boyfriend and I like to go to.
Is it good?? While that may depend on your buzz, take the word of two remarkable chefs, Sean Brock and Anthony Bourdain: https://youtu.be/qEpXeTDwbk8
