I believe this Waffle House in Ashland has been here for a long while. Because my friend told me he had a classmate from his childhood used to work here. Come to find out, it was many generations of management ago. Me and my friend came here for breakfast because the hotel's breakfast line closed early. It was my first time dine at a Waffle House. So, I picked the combo from the menu without much of investigation on Yelp. Service was pretty good. After we finished eating, waitress took the empty plates away. It seemed more people were coming in. My food was lukewarm. I ordered All-Star Special only $11.00, it was $13.50. The waffle wasn't special. But I had to have it because it's Waffle House. My friend ordered burger with hash brown and toppings on the bottom. Weird placement. Prices were reasonable. Since it's 24/7, I could come anytime. Nice. read more

I was really excited to eat here because there aren't any waffle houses near me. I was disappointed. I was greeted warmly that was good. It looked clean enough but not pristine, which I wasn't expecting it to be. My eggs had too much cheese and my grits had to put butter and it just wasn't good. My waffle was not cooked in the middle. They cooked me another but I just took it go. read more

The service here is very wonderful and the employees are very kind, but the cleanliness of the restaurant could be better. The some of the workers were not wearing hair nets, and I find that concerning considering that most of the workers had long hair, I ending up finding a hair in my drink so I just left. I used to eat at this Waffle House since I was just a small child and it's always been very clean and food safe, but recently they've really been slacking on the cleanliness of everything. read more

I take my Waffle House serious. This is the best Waffle House I've been to. Excellent staff, food is great. I stopped in 2 days in a row (I work out of town) and I plan on coming a third day tomorrow. They were totally great in helping with my choices due to dietary restrictions. (I stopped in between 7-9pm, Monday & Tuesday, March 4th.) read more

First time we have ever been to a Waffle House and I have to admit we were very happy! Long road trip for us and we needed some food and a break. The food was really good! We had enough to fill us but not leave us stuffed, the staff was very friendly, super nice and we both commented on how clean it was! They kept cleaning, no standing around. They had someone they were training and their patience and explanation for them was great! Alabama was on the grill and let me tell you.. amazing! read more

Charlotte was nice, looks like an identical version of saraya Knight, adorable, but chicken wasn't cooked. Will visit again. Thanks!

The time is 11:45pm and the restaurant is closed...what happened to 24hrs?!?!?!?!?! Change your hours on Yelp...very misleading to guest coming in from out of town!!! read more

Waffle House - Closed...24hrs...False Advertisement - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ashland, Virginia

Terrible customer service! Walked in to place a takeout order and didn't get acknowledged once while standing at the Register. Multiple employees walked past me and made eye contact and not one person said good morning or even acknowledged me to take my order. And this has absolutely nothing to do with racism because I already know people are going to go there. This was just a terrible customer service experience and it wasn't even busy.. read more

First time at this location but I have been to several. Was seated pretty quickly and food didn't take long. My typical order of a waffle and scrambled eggs. The price is so cheap I question if they actually make a profit or the food isn't real. Well the food was great and there's not much else to add. It's a Waffle House and it's that simple. read more

We were greeted upon entry and requested to sit in a certain area because they were short-staffed. Despite being short-staffed, we were waited on quickly. Our server was excellent. She was friendly with a great sense of humor. She kept our drink glasses full and made sure we had everything needed. Our food was cooked as ordered and tasted great. The cook took time, between orders, to talk to customers and also had a great sense of humor. The ambiance was that of a typical Waffle House, but with a touch of humor. read more

Only waited a short time. Staff was friendly and food was good. A very good first experience

Damn this place needs cleaning. Windows look crazy. Floor needs a sweep. Almost couldnt find a clean table to sit down at but waitress was assertive and attentive. She was sweet. Tipped her nice she was pleased. Came 12am. Food came hot and quick. Food was decent. Grits were fire. Bacon and eggs were cool. Waffle decent. Hash brown ok. Toast regular ish. Im content. Nothing taste too much of chemicals gmo preservative premade crap. Food came out in like 15mins. Waffles came first then 3mins later everything else. read more

My spouse and I waited nearly 45 minutes to get a table. As Waffle House is a local favorite of ours, we didn't object to waiting. However, there where two tables that sat unbusted and empty the entire time we waited. Other customers come and left due to the extended wait time. As we where being seated, roughly 15 minutes after I asked to speak with the manager, Dennis came out. He was defensive right off the bat, and he wasn't listening to anything I was trying to say. All I was trying to explain was that unbusted table was causing then to loss business, and made the whole staff look bad. He started yelling at me and was so rude, and unprofessional that he told me and my spouse we had to leave. Dennis has no business being employed at Waffle house, let alone in a management position. Until this abusive, and aggressive individual is removed from this location, we will not be returning. We have never been treated so poorly, or with such disrespect. The actions if this so called manager were beyond shameful. read more

Keeping the restaurant at 65 degrees is obnoxious and uncomfortable...we won't be back...no one likes to shiver while eating, the server is wearing a hoodie, it's 88 degrees outside, we'd rather eat in the parking lot read more

Dirty floor. Way too many people for social distancing. Forgot the bacon on one order; served a seriously undercooked "steak" on the other. Every single employee was incorrectly masked. We could not get out of this place fast enough--a COVID hotspot almost certainly. So bad we tried to choke down the food while wearing our masks at the same time. Should be shut down for health violations. read more

Stopped in recently to grab a cup of coffee. Horribly poor service. Extremely rude server yelling to customers from the line disparaging other Waffle House The quality of staff at this location has deteriorated greatly. I frequently eat at Waffle House but stopped going to this location because of poor service. read more

My husband and I stopped here a few days ago. I knew as soon as I had the grits that they were off. I only had a few bites. Within 24 hours, I was vomiting. It became so bad, I sought urgent care. My condition then deteriorated to the point they sent me to the nearest hospital in an ambulance. I ultimately was diagnosed with bacterial food poisoning and pneumonia from aspirating my own vomit. The grits were the only thing my husband and I did not share - and he didn't get sick. Stay far, far away. That is the sickest I've been in my life. read more

I wish I had taken a picture of the dumpster fire of a plate I got from this location. Because it was hot garbage. Server was cool but with that said the cook should prolly find an other job. Was going to get a bacon and cheese omelet but the mixer was broke. Ok cool we understand things happen so order the all star breakfast scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon. Hash browns smothered covered no biggie. When came time for her to cook our order. She audibly was like people just make up whatever they want. Then fixed food eggs cheese no bacon cool no biggie but the hash browns burned grill scrapings and raw onion all over the top. Just horrible. Never should have been served. read more

Wait with family for 40 minutes to be seat for "more workers to show up" when 7 people in plain sight were just talking in the kitchen, this place used to be good read more

Okay so I understand Waffle Houses are quick sit, order, eat and go type of places but the ones I have been to need some TLC. The location was great, the food decent and the service good; but the overall appearance I would say a 1 or 2. This location in particular needs a good scrub down; from the entry, the seating area and restrooms. I hope somehow this issue gets addressed. read more

My family and I decided to go to this waffle and. The staff was nice and very friendly. My order was right but the rest of my family's meal had missing and or wrong foods. My grandparents asked for egg whites and they got regular eggs. I don't know if the don't separate eggs which isn't that hard but they didn't tell us they didn't do that. My mom ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese grits bowl and they didn't give her grits. There were flies everywhere and it was disturbing for me. They need to get flytraps because I don't want to eat with a bunch of flies flying around. Overall the staff was nice but they just need to be nice to the restaurants down clean it. read more

The service here was fantastic. I felt like the gentleman making our food genuinely cared about how our food turned out. And the food was fantastic! Definitely recommend! read more

This was my first time at this place. There are no Waffle House near my house. My cousin told me the place was amazing. As we drove up to the building all I could think was "This place is supposed to be better then iHOP. The building was super small, and there wasn't much seating. We got luck and was able to sit down before a giant crowd came in. The booth was super small, to me only two people can fit in there. Our server was super great. She came up pick what we want. "The All American Breakfast." I got my sausage extra crispy, and the grits was AWESOME!! I had to put some salt and pepper, but you get like a entire bowl. The waffle was huge!!! It was so delicious as well. OMG I'm writing and thinking back about this place my stomach is growling, and now I must eat something. To bad there isn't a Waffle House in the Fort Washington. read more

We live in the area and occasionally go to the Waffle House after church, won't be going back for a while. There was plenty of staff standing around making lots of noise but not doing a lot. The place was really dirty today. The waffle station was awful, dough had run over the sides of the irons and was piled up around them level with the tops and falling over on the floor. Long wait for food and it was tepid at Best when it arrived. We heard several customers complain about the temp of their food too. No one seemed to care. Person who acted like a manager didn't seem interested either, other than to contribute to the noise level. Trash was all over the floor every where we looked. Realize they had a busy a.m. but they could take a moment to pick up napkins and straw papers off the floor before someone slips on them. read more

Poor customer service, food took forever and waitress forgot half of my order!!! Tried to make up for it by giving a mere 10 percent off!!! Seams to me they need to put more people on the shift instead of the waitress apologizing constantly!!!! Food quality wasn't all that good either. Once the cook was done he was out the back door smoking and playing on his phone!!! Next time I'll go to a REAL RESTAURANT!!!!!! read more

We had gone to the festival of lights in Doswell and waited 3 hours in line,so we were starving when we got to Waffle house. Justin was the chef and he did a wonderful job, it was delicious. Thank you Justin read more

Very dirty, disorganized work stations. Came here on 02/20/2021 at around 11:30pm-12:30pm. The lady with blonde hair called Shayan was extremely rude and racist to us and her coworker that was working the kitchen was beyond rude and antisemitic. Told us that we should've been in the oven a little longer. Very nasty attitudes and Shayan kept rolling her eyes and saying shes tired and wants to go to sleep every 5 seconds. I asked her for my chicken sandwich with no cheese and she rolled her eyes and said " you're so picky, you need to learn to them together". They need to take a course in hospitality and professionalism, because they have none. At least smile and take our order and we wouldve gone our merry way. Was roadtriping from NYC to Charleston SC hence why I stopped. Food was eh, chicken was way undercooked gave me with cheese and bacon. Cannot have pork. Also told me that they dont have utensils nor napkins and that I need to go to walmart for that. Would give it 0 stars but I guess 1 star will let me make this review, and hopefully management will do something about it. read more

We were gonna go to cracker barrel on the way home but since we had a great experience in an Atlanta, GA Waffle House, we thought we would give Waffle House another try in Ashland,VA... but it was a big mistake. The lady greeting and seating was the only positive experience and a waitress we wished we had (Sonya, I think was her name). Bacon was greasy, eggs over medium were barely over easy, and waffle was burnt. Our waitress never checked on us and we were right at the table at the entrance of the counter (couldn't miss us if you tried)... and worst part was the non stop complaining about how people were not leaving good tips. So here is a tip... focus on providing good customer service and connecting with people and the money will make its way to you. We did leave 15% because its the right thing to do given the pandemic hit but I can see why people were not leaving good tips. read more

The Chef Justin ROCKS! He knows his stuff when it comes to cooking! He was able to breakdown his cooking skills for a very inquisitive customer and throw down in the kitchen for 8 orders all at the same time! On top of that the food was AWESOME!!! If I ever come back to these neck of the woods I most definitely will be back just for his food!! read more

I absolutely love Waffle House. The staff was very courteous. The prices are dirt cheap. The food is always hot and quick. I ordered the Cheese and Eggs with Raisin Bread, Cheese Grits, and Arnold Palmer (Lemonade/Sweet Tea). Overall my meal was delicious and I would recommend this Waffle House for a quick stop. read more

Had never been to a Waffle House. Was skeptical when we arrived because it wasn't the cleanest place, but the service was friendly & quick. The food was tasty. We expected it to be more of a restaurant setting like iHop. Instead it was more like fast food tables & booths. We of course got waffles. They were good. The bacon was thin, flavorful and crisp. My kids loved both. My husband who had the most negative feelings before we arrived, conceded that it was much better than expected. I only wish it was cleaner. My shoes slid on the greasy floor. read more

We usually hit the Waffle House on our way down 95. The service is quick but the AC is often set so low that it makes me wonder if they want you to eat and run. That might not be far from the truth because of the amount of coffee we drink. It's a conundrum.... Drink coffee to warm up because the AC is so low. Turn the AC down so the customers don't drink up all the coffee! Ok. Enough about that. I recommend fresh eggs over easy, hash browns and sausage. Hubby like the grits... not my thing. Skip the waffles, they're a bit like flavored cardboard. Definitely way better than fast food and the coffee's really good! read more

LOVE this place. It's everything you come to expect, waitresses barking out food orders, greasy food that is consistent and delish. They is not health food, it's cheap comfort food that hits the spot perfectly. read more

How horrible! I'll give a two star review because coffee was good and waffle was thin and edible. I have been to many WH in my life and I know what to expect, but... Eggs were a disaster, sent back twice! Dude, how can you mess up eggs. Over hard, break the yolk!! Hash browns tasted funny Service by Maekela was meh, not friendly for sure. Next time, I will skip this location. Ugh. read more

went here to eat as soon as we came in there was no greet or anything, when we went to sit we asked to sit in a specific spot and the server named Ashley had an attitude was very rude, as we were the only customers in the restaurant They all were gaping and smoking In the restaurant and then two of the employees came out to smoke weed in the car in the parking. 0 out of 10 I would not recommend and I'm from Florida so for this to be my first time from out of state it was very disappointing read more

I've been to better locations. Service was terrible and the manager didn't care that there were fly's (dead and alive) in the restaurant. read more

This place needs serious help. They had 2 people working and the cook had a terrible attitude and was throwing stuff and cussing and saying she was going to walk out and was being very sloppy. I felt very unsafe being in that hostile environment and walked out. I sat there for 15 mins and never got my drink taken either. I Definitely will not be coming back read more

Food that we ate was OK, the one star is because of the food handling. I directly witnessed the grill cook handle raw bacon and beef with her (gloved) hands, then directly use the cooking utensils to position and prepare the meats on the grill. The prep cook who is handling the prepared foods then used the same now soiled cooking utensils to move around and then remove the cooked food. This prep cook then handled a fresh tomato and started slicing it for my salad. When I called him out and told him his (gloved) hands were contaminated with raw pork and beef, he seemed to not understand, somehow insisting that because he was wearing gloves it was somehow safe. The woman who took my order then told him "he wants you to change your gloves" at which point he gave me a look and then changed them. I didn't eat the salad. This exchange really bothered me, not just for the unsafe handling of raw pork, but that somehow asking that my salad not be contaminated with raw pork was somehow an extreme request and it was something that "I wanted" him to do rather than something that they need to do to keep their food safe. We will not be back. read more
