This was my first visit to this location. When I walked in, I was greeted by a young man who was very polite, which I appreciated. I ordered the Biscoff waffle and the Strawberry Specialty waffle. When my order arrived, the presentation was quite pleasant; however, the experience quickly went downhill. The waffles were cold and very hard to cut. The texture was not what I expect from a fresh waffle. I usually visit the SouthPark location (if it's still open), and this experience did not compare. I was able to eat the Biscoff waffle, but the Strawberry Specialty waffle was so bad that I ended up throwing it away. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I will not be returning.
The waffle was crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. But it was not authentic, hot, freshly made, Liege-style waffles. My standard is high, having eaten them in Spain and Italy. However, while there were a variety of toppings, the waffle needed to be cooked to order to allow for ease of cutting and for the toppings to add value. On a lighter note, the service was person forward, the prices were reasonable, and there was ample parking.
We love Cast Iron Waffles! Some of the best waffles I have ever had! Service is always good and foot is always great!
The waffle selection was easy to follow, and they tasted great! The latte was kinda bland, but the atmosphere was nice and clean. I would go again.
I great little meeting spot that felt cozy, I liked the waffle and all the varieties to choose from but, the star of everything for me was the buttery maple syrup!! The staff were all delightful, I would definitely go back!!
Absolutely best waffles I have ever eaten! This place is super cute and service is amazing. A true hidden gem You NEED this in your life! Trust me, go get a waffle!
As someone who just got back from a trip to Belgium I can say these are legit. It's like I'm back in the streets of Brussels. The staff is super friendly and the coffee was great. Would recommend.
Best waffles I've had in a long time! It's a small place, but if you're in the area, it's worth trying at least once. I had the Cinnamon Roll Waffle (Belgian waffle topped with vanilla buttercream and brown sugar/cinnamon mix, $5.75), which is one of their specialty waffles. It was incredibly fluffy, moist, sweet, and full of deliciousness. It did feel like being served from a food truck when it arrived in a small paper container rather than a plate (and the prices resemble that of a food truck too). Don't expect the whole restaurant experience - you order at the front, seat yourself, your food is brought to your table, and then you clean after yourself. But don't judge it solely by its simplicity; the waffles are pretty good!
If you're looking for a place to indulge your sweet tooth, Cast Iron Waffles is a must-visit spot! I visited last August with my family and had a lovely experience. We sat outside on a beautiful day and enjoyed the sun with our waffles. We ordered two of their deluxes, one with berries and cream, and a sticky bun deluxe. The waffles were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. + a nice variety of toppings Friendly service from the staff, they made sure we had everything we needed and genuinely wanted to make our visit a good one. In short, if you're looking for a place to indulge in some great Belgian waffles, look no further than here.
Hidden gem tucked into Marvin rd, Cast Iron waffles provides decadent gourmet waffles from friendly staff in a quiet neighborhood, with ample seating inside and out. These waffles are delicious and on the sweet side in most variations, so I paired a lumberjack which has a savory salty flavor thanks to the bacon with a coffee without any cream to balance it out. I tried the deluxe waffle as well and for me, it was a bit too sweet but I had no complaints from the family. The smoothies are also great, though a bit sugary. There are plenty of items, but given the nature your basically eating doughnuts for breakfast. I had one waffle and finished the second half of another that my child didn't want, and I'll say that was too much sugar for me. In the future I'll split a waffle and only have half. I walked around the peaceful neighborhood to burn off some extra energy. While anyone could easily eat an entire waffle alone, I'd be hard pressed to recommend it. Splitting one with a friend is definitely the way to go. There's plenty of seating inside and out, lined along the window so you get a sunny view, outside there are two nooks with tables that will keep you out of the wind and in full view of the sun, so even on a cold day you can enjoy the outdoors comfortably. The area is quiet and though the road is nearby the traffic is not noticeable. Overall it's a great area. Being in a neighborhood the parking in front is slim, but there is a parking lot across the road. Part of it is open parking and park has signs for towing, I didn't risk it (even on a Sunday) and figure it's best not to tempt, so pay attention to the signage. I loved visiting this small local business and will definitely be returning here regularly as a family treat.

I rarely get waffles outside because I make some good waffles at home. But my friend claims this spot makes good waffles and said we should check it out. And it did not disappoint. They had a lot of variety of waffles / flavors. Even though the waffles were premade and not make to order, the waffles were really warm, soft and fluffy. ( I would think they are make to order). The waffle itself is good but the toppings really add to it. We opted for the not too sweet toppings. The staff were really sweet. Gave us some recommendations based on our preferences. We ordered: Apple crumble waffle Berry waffle read more

Cast Iron Waffles is a charming little coffee and waffle shop in Ballantyne. This is a great place to grab a treat on your own or take someone on a memorable first date. I enjoyed my waffles with strawberries added, though the coffee was just standard - not bad, but not a standout. The cozy atmosphere combined with cute seating choices is the real draw of this place. Additionally, the customer service was warm and welcoming. I would go back here! read more

Best waffles I have ever eaten. Hands down! No competition! My favorite is the peanut butter cup waffle. How can you go wrong with peanut butter and Nutella? The Deluxe is very good as well. Again, you have Nutella with strawberries and bananas. I can easily eat 2 waffles, so don't be afraid to order that extra one. They have very solid coffee too. I usually go with the iced macchiato. read more

This place is a must! The food and drinks were amazing!! The most delicious waffle I've had and the coffee was excellent! The employees were friendly and polite and the food was ready quickly and with the PERFECT amount of whipped cream. Inviting and chill atmosphere. Can't wait to be back to try more! 10/10 read more

I'm sorry but I really wanted to embrace this place. Especially since my wife and I toured Belgium last year and ate copious amounts of waffles. This is a cute spot. Here's my beef; I walked in yesterday and there were 3 patrons enjoying their afternoon. The counter gal was great at explaining the choices. I opted for the mixed fruit waffle. She proceeded to take a premade waffle out of a holding bin on the counter. Since it was about 2:00 PM I'm guessing that they were made that morning, maybe. Inexcusable in my opinion. read more

Oh my goodness! This place is just the sweetest. Very friendly staff, customers were also incredibly nice to each other. (We love to see that) I ordered the peanut buttercup deluxe waffle and it was delicious. If you've got a sweet tooth, this is definitely for you! My kids and husband both enjoyed the cinnamon roll waffle which was also perfection! 10/10 recommend The Cast Iron Waffle. read more

Following the recent Yelp shindig where Cast Iron gave away samples of their waffles, I came here. The next day. And I brought Mrs. K and K Junior, because there's not much that we love more than wonderful waffles. And wonderful waffles is what we had. I went with mine plain, but the others were ordered with nutella and whipped cream. And let me tell you, these things are plenty sweet all on their own. You really don't have to add anything. An hour later, the sugar crash hit us all pretty hard. Nap time. But it was SO worth it. read more

After reading all the reviews on Yelp of how good this place was I felt like I could not leave Charlotte without giving these waffles a try. They were good, but not the best waffle ever! I had a deluxe waffle with my son, by daughter had one with just nutella on it and my husband had a special called the lumberjack which had bacon on it. First they need to update their online menu. It says they have waffle Sundaes and the girl working there said they got rid of that shortly after opening because the company they got their ice cream from lost all their ice cream when their freezers broke. read more

Hi Susan,…
The best waffle I've had in Charlotte, no 'maybe' or 'probably' needed, just a freaky good waffle! I normally trek the North side of the QC but today I had a co-worker in need of help in Ballantyne. Afterwards, both starving and half-lost, I decided to fire up the ol' Yelp Search for a quick bite to eat. Thus, here I find myself at Cast Iron! Its a cute, warm coffee bar that serves waffles, waffles, and more waffles. They have 'speciality' waffles, 'DELUXE' waffles, plain waffles, and even frozen waffles to take home. How could they be any better than your average hotel continental breakfast? These are Liege-Style Belgian waffles. Made with more of a dough than a batter, and mixed with a coarse sugar that contributes to the unique texture, these are a true delight if you've never had one. You're probably going to think that the waffle is small at first, but I'd say that one Liege waffle is equivalent to 2 regular ones. Today I got the berries & cream waffle that's Topped with strawberries, blueberries, and fresh whipped cream. First off the waffle, somehow chewy and airy at the same time. Just the right amount of bite and the coarse sugar I mentioned gives the denser body a nice contrast. They don't sweeten the whipped cream (or if they do it's very little) which works great with the sweeter waffle, and of course the fruit contributes to the sugar content anyway. It was just a splendid and filling breakfast in such a compact dish! Their iced coffee is great as well. I'm starting to get more and more accustomed to no sugar with my coffee and their custom blend is perfect for this. I did add a splash of half and half only to cut the sharper notes a bit, but I would drink it black if offered! A bit surprised that they don't have bacon or eggs here, but as I said, the waffle alone is very filling. I still think it would make a good addition for a more complete breakfast destination. The staff is pleasant and know their menu very well, as I heard them patiently explaining the menu to another customer who was undecided. Next time I'm in the mood for outstanding waffles, I won't hesitate to drive down here! read more

I'm a sucker for cute breakfast places and Cast Iron Waffles now has my heart. The service is extra friendly and the waffles are soooo good! They have a variety of coffee and waffle options to choose from so choose wisely. My husband and I chose the Elvis, Oreo, and one with Peanutbutter and Nutella. We obviously like pb. All three were delicious but the Oreo and Nutella I would only recommend to those with a sweet tooth. The Icing on the Oreo is fire! The Elvis was everything I hoped it would be. Loved visiting this tiny place packed with deliciousness. read more
