    Good breakfast, service was great ambiance is a little crowded I felt like I was sitting with the table behind me. There are long wait times so it's best to put your name in the Que before walking around the plaza. It's your basic breakfast no big thrills but good

    Belgian breakfast
    Harrison S.

    Came the other day for breakfast, there is seating inside but we decided to sit in the nice patio over looking the lake. It was very pleasant with the view. Got the Belgian breakfast, everything was good! Eggs were cooked well, bacon was crisp, potato's were delicious and the waffle was tasty! Service was fine, nothing extraordinary nor terrible either. Just good. Definitely recommend if you're in the area and want a good bite and view for breakfast

    Belgian Waffle Works is a superbly located brunch location on the shores of Lake Arrowhead offering great waffles at a reasonable price. My daughter and I swung by for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated quickly. Not especially hungry we shared the Apple Annie Waffle ($15.50) a homemade waffle with cinnamon apples, cinnamon ice cream, whipped cream, nuts, and raisins, a treat as decadent as you might expect. The waffle was soft but tragically small, the apples good but not phenomenal, and ice cream decent. I suspect the only home made component here was the waffle. Accompanying this was a bowl of Chili ($10) which was decent, meaty, with a touch of spice. Doubt this was home made either, but was good. Service was friendly and very prompt, with us getting our meal in less than five minutes. View is excellent with a perfectly positioned patio overlooking the lake. Valued, as stated above, were reasonable but not exceptional. Taken together, Belgian Waffle Works is a decent place for a very fast, home-made waffle (only) in an excellent location. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4.5/5 Value: 4/5

    Little breakfast with 7 grain waffle. Add whip, banana.

    Great place! Staff were friendly and attentive. My table was by the window and I had a beautiful view of the lake. I ordered a the little breakfast with 7 grain breakfast, eggs and fruit. It was a perfect place to stop and have breakfast before a beautiful day at the lake!

    This eatery is located in Arrowhead Village and has both indoor and outdoor seating, the latter right along the lake. Avoid any confusion with seating by going inside first (rather than seating yourself on the patio), where you will be asked your preference (inside or out) and will then be escorted to a table. Virginia was our waitress, handling the entire patio, and doing a superb job of taking orders, delivering food, checking on tables, and generally making every customer happy. While this is primarily a breakfast place, we came for lunch. They offer soups, salads, and sandwiches for lunch. I decided on a BLT and chose to have it on rye bread along with waffle fries. We also ordered a cobb salad to share. The BLT had toasted bread and crispy bacon. The lettuce and tomato were fresh. It was delicious but nothing extraordinary - it was standard but done to perfection. The waffle fries were really good, and while they had ketchup on the table, I instead used the ranch dressing that came with the cobb salad to dip them in. Speaking of the salad, it had bits of chicken, bacon, and ham along with olives, lettuce, tomato, crumbled blue cheese, and hard boiled egg. It was quite good and we were provided with two separate plates to share it more easily. It was a filling meal and I waddled out of there more than satisfied. Other than that, I hope to return someday to actually have a Belgian Waffle at a place called the Belgian Waffle Works.

    Came in on a Monday morning and it was slightly busy. I waited around 15-20 minutes to get a table. We had our dog with us so we sat in the patio. Despite the heat, the patio had a pretty great view of the lake. I would recommend people eat out there even if they don't have a dog. My party ordered the Strawberry-Banana Royal and I got the Belgian Scrambled for myself. The Strawberry-Banana Royal was solid, just like most of the waffles I've had in my life. The Belgian Scrambled was pretty okay, though I've had better brunch plates. I can only compare it to the second installment of the Karate Kid franchise. It wasn't a bad movie, though I know I've seen better because the first Karate Kid really set the bar. Best believe I still finished it, though. Solid place to try out. Though I would probably try the Country Breakfast next time.

    We had such a great experience at Belgian Waffle Works!! We came in early on a Sunday morning and had the entire patio with our pup to ourselves. Not only does this place have great views of the water, but incredible breakfast! We both got the scramble, which was huge, so filling, and so yummy. We both got extra crispy potatoes and I couldn't stop talking about how good the potatoes were. We also got a side waffle - and wow. This place doesn't mess around with the waffle. It even came with a side of melted butter, which we had never seen and loved!! Service was incredible. Even though we were the only guests on the patio, they came and checked on us multiple times. We had the best breakfast here and the best time. Will definitely be back next time we visit Arrowhead.

    What a wonderful breakfast experience! We visited this charming breakfast spot in Lake Arrowhead and were truly impressed. I ordered the Traditional Eggs Benedict, and it was absolutely perfect, beautifully presented, rich and creamy hollandaise, perfectly poached eggs, and fresh, flavorful ingredients. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was fast and attentive. It felt like a true mountain-town gem, the kind of place that makes your morning special. If you're in Lake Arrowhead and looking for an unforgettable breakfast, this place is a must-visit. We will definitely be coming back again and again! Highly recommended!

    Granola and fruit- giant portion!

    Kids menu egg breakfast: for 10 bucks you get what looks to be three eggs if you do scrambled, choice of either sausage or bacon and a good size Belgian waffle with powdered sugar and syrup on the side. Syrup comes warm and it is sticky! Went over very well with my toddler 5/5 Belgian breakfast: two eggs anyway, I got them poached, comes with sausage or bacon and Homestyle potatoes with a waffle. Also comes with a cup of warm butter and warm syrup on the side. Everything excellent! Potatoes were solid and I did not expect them to be. They really know how to do a waffle at this place. 5/5 Mud pie belgian: this is not really for adults. It was so insanely sweet. The ice cream is not fabulous quality it's just a bigsugary mess. However if I were still a kid I would have loved it! 3/5 Coffee is unlimited and they come around to fill your coffee and waterfrequently. The service is super fast and friendly. The only knock on the place is probably the ambiance since it's a little beat up on the inside, but I came here for the food and I got what I came for! You also have a nice View either from the patio or inside, where we sat.

    Biscuits and gravy full order
    Yula K.

    A no brainer brunch spot for out of towners enjoying the weekend in Lake Arrowhead. No wait and everything came out incredibly fast. The chicken and waffles were yummy but you never want to see tendies instead of good old fashioned fried chicken as part of your chicken and waffles. Biscuits and gravy were good too. Spices in the white gravy were nice and the biscuit was thick and very soft.

    Ah, a tourist favorite! Been coming here for years (mostly as a kid). I went in today and it was a bit underwhelming. The staff is very nice and friendly - our waiter was helpful, made recommendations, and was attentive. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn't look very clean. There were sticky spots on our table (maybe they were just stains) and the utensils had dried food left on it... on both of our sets. The egg sandwich was good and the waffle was perfect. Nice and crispy on one side, but still a little soft on the other. The waffle fries that came out with the sandwich were alright, the seasoning could use some improvements. Our coffee mugs came only half filled and the flavor was on the sour side (might just be from the type of roast). Overall okay, but a bit overpriced for the quality and portions that are serviced + the lack of cleanliness

    Best brunch spot in Lake Arrowhead! The portions are huge and tasty, and the service is top-notch. There's nothing like having a meal with a stunning lake view--it was so healing. Make sure to put this on your list when you're in town!

    Wow! Just finished breakfast here and it was a real treat. From the friendliness of the hostess and waiter, to the prompt service and cleanliness of the restaurant, to the beautiful view of the lake, and of course, the food was amazing! Thank you, Webster, for being such a great waiter. Everyone here works as a team to deliver exceptional service. We will definitely be back!!

A tasty thick malt sounded amazing, especially if the business is kind of known for it with many options. I had not had a malt in so long. I kept wondering when we could find a window to squeeze this in. We finally walked a mile over from where we stayed (a lot of this was uphill so that was rough for me) and we plopped down, ready for our malts. I ordered a rocky road malt and Steven ordered a chocolate chip malt. The server was surprised at the easy order she received as we did not order any food or anything. Yet, it still took some time. Finally the malts arrived, but unfortunately we were left so disappointed. Malts are supposed to be thicker than shakes, but these drinks were pretty much just melted ice cream. So, we are not sure if the orders were placed as shakes and still much more melted than other shake shops, or what happened. I felt like I was drinking melted ice cream with a spoon. Once I got through my glass, I didn't bother trying to pour more from my metal cup into the regular cup. I just started scooping from the extra stainless steel cup, hoping to save some thicker portions in there. There were a few, but not a lot. Since I was expecting a thick malt or something thicker than liquid ice cream, I devoured it pretty fast and now had a tummy ache. We tried it, but it didn't work out for us.

When we entered the small town of Blue Jay I was pretty excited since I'm a life long Toronto Blue Jays fan and a lover of small blue birds in general. Almost as soon as you enter the town you also drive by Blue Jay Burger and that was enough for us to pull the car into the drive through and take a gander at the menu. This place looks like a pretty typical fast food establishment with burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, and the beverages to help wash them all down. Now, I don't remember the name of the sandwich I ordered but it doesn't seem to be on the restaurants website so I'll just throw out a a description. I didn't order a burger, I ordered a sort of stank sandwich between a burger patty and the sandwich itself was pretty solid. The sandwich had lettuce and tomato on it and did the job. The french fries were also solid, being lightly crispy and having solid flavour. The funniest thing I ate at this place was the chicken nuggets which were ALMOST indentical to a McDonald's McNugget from the shape to the flavour, but hey, no complaints from this guy. Overall, I'm sure Blue Jay Buger is a great place to have if you live in a town like Blue Jay. This fast food shop offers some local community flavour instead of the copy and paste chains most places have and that's certainly not a bad thing. Although this wasn't the best of anything I've ever had, it was a solid spot for a quick lunch before we were back on the road. Is it worth stopping by? I think so, it's always nice to grab some food off the beat and path and experience some small town flavour.

(Flavor) I ordered a beer which they were out of then changed my choice which the waitress came back and told me they're out of that one too so I just ordered a Coke which never came so I had to ask her for it again. The waitress wasn't that bad though she tried. The fact that our bill was $80 dollars for one beer, one coke, fries, pork rinds, and a brisket sandwich was insane. The pork rinds were from the store bag with seasoning on them. Literally the only thing that had seasoning. Basically this place was not worth it and I don't understand how someone would go more than once. Will never come back to this place and I hope this helps both a person interested in going and also the people who work here. Our whole party was dissatisfied with this place and saw why it was so slow on a Sunday afternoon.
