Waffle House has a reputation for strange encounters.

Round-the-clock service makes the bright yellow restaurants an attractive spot for people from all walks of life — students cramming for exams, workers eating after the graveyard shift and drunks and stoners out for a 2-AM snack.

Not surprisingly, Waffle House has also been the scene of many strange crimes.

I believe Waffle House hash browns have an addictive drug added to them.

Yes, its called "they actually know how to cook them"

There is nothing lamer than soggy hash browns at IHOP.

Waffle House is one of my favorite places and it rather sucks that they haven't made it up here to New England. So I have to wait until I'm in the Southland to get my WH fix.

However, I know better than to go in there at night, where rarely anything good happens. The prime time for Waffle House is between 5-9am, where you can get an excellent ham & cheese omelet w/grits and bacon.

I always like to throw some coins in the jukebox just to hear some of those "Waffle House" songs, like "Make Mine With Cheese", "Meet Me At The Waffle House", and "There Are Raisins In My Toast."

"There Are Raisins In My Toast."

The grill ops love that one.

By orders of magnitude.

LOL. You've got that right!

In both Oklahoma and Georgia, I used to go to Waffle House after a trip to Walmart.

Walmart plus Waffle House in one afternoon is essentially the Superbowl of people watching.

I believe Waffle House hash browns have an addictive drug added to them. I love, love their hash browns-scattered, double covered, double diced. (Let the Waffle House patron understand). Ketchup and Tabasco on the hash browns is essential.

Scattered, smothered, covered, and topped (with Bert's chili).

Oh yeah, don't forget the double pecan waffle and black coffee.

WOO!

*shrug* People got no appreciation for aggressive negotiation these days.

LOL, I can’t wait!

Never had Waffle House hash browns (we don't have Waffle House in these parts), but I couldn't agree more that ketchup and Tabasco on any hash browns is essential.

Dennys after midnight is a drunk tank with food. And the waitress staff looks like methadone clinic drop-outs.
I go to a little greasy spoon when I get the urge for bacon and eggs after midnite and I always go armed. But the cook has a baseball bat near by and it seems like a police sub station in the parking lot.

I ;live in Oregon which means that we get that imitation maple syrup...ask for molasses or ribbon cane syrup and you just get a blank stare in return...and the coffee is horrible.
