When the wife and I went down south on a road trip last year, I told her we should avoid these Waffle Houses which they don't have up north. I've read a lot of stories in the news about violence in many of them. She laughed and thought I was paranoid.
Waffle Houses are ok. I’ve spent many hours in them while traveling down south. Perhaps at 2am in Biloxi they may not be ok. 24 hour diners often bring in the drunks and drug addicts and angry, loser guys just ditched by gals.
Your loss! I’ve spent many happy hours over many years in Waffle House with my grandsons who always have a way of conning me into taking them. Good food, good coffee, and excellent sweet tea!
You wouldn’t have had a problem if you avoided the old ones in the sketchier parts of town after the bars close for the night.
