REALLY ?

I've seen them, in many different towns, but we've never tried them. Are they like IHOP ?

They are not as big as IHOPs but more like diners. I always go to one when I travel down South. Bare bones, no frills, just good food at a good price. They are also kind of quirky. They still have jukeboxes and on the jukebox are some songs that are actually written specifically for Waffle House like "There are Raisins in my Toast" and "They're Cooking Up my Order".

They also have a tradition where the waitstaff taking your order have to go stand on a particular tile on the floor called "The Mark" and shout your order to the grillmen using a special code which tells them how to set up your plate.

Waffle House is a huge chain in the South. Two out of every 100 eggs produced in the United States ends up at a Waffle House.

Funny thing is I've never had a waffle there. I always get the eggs, bacon and grits.
