Ate here at around noon on a Sunday. The restaurant was a little chilly but clean. I don't like that Waffle House doesn't play music unless you pay for the jukebox. Service was prompt and friendly. Food was as expected, but I was diappointed that some of the calorie counts on the menu are likely inaccurate. read more

Waffle House - 2-Egg Breakfast with eggs over-hard and unbuttered white toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

The food was very good, the server, Jasmine, was great. She was friendly, helpful and repeatedly checked on our food. The temperature outside was 49°, and the air conditioner kept kicking on! She said that they didn't have any control over the temperature. We won't be back in the winter. read more

Food was good. service was horrible. we did get our food pretty quick. After they give you your food they never come back to refill drinks. This has happened 4 different times in the past month. they are to busy talking to each other than making sure the customer has all they need. read more

the best waffle house in tennessee. 10/10. best food. perfect team. very impressed. choose this location. the ambiance was phenomenal.

I just want to start off by saying the customer service is AMAZING here. One staff member really stood out to us, Brittany. She carries this company on her back and makes us feel so welcome. She goes above and beyond. I don't know how much she makes, but she deserves a raise. The food is delicious. Best waffles I've had in my life. read more

Had breakfast with my daughter on Easter Sunday before heading to Nashville to fly home. We were super impressed with the staff. Everyone was friendly and cheerful, complimenting the customers, and the food was on point and fast. Will definitely be back the next time we are in town. read more

Waffle was not done, goodie in the middle! Place was dirty, had to wait 20 minutes for someone to clean the table and then had to ask them to clean the trash on the floor. The syrup bottle was covered with syrup and the lid was not on tight. Will never go back to that Waffle House. read more

I went on a busy Sunday morning and had the best food and service! David was our server and he was absolutely amazing, cannot express how happy we were with everything! read more

Tony and I went hiking this weekend at Burgess Falls State Park and stopped at the exit 186 off I-40 to reach our destination and opted to stop at Waffle House to grab some breakfast for energy before partaking on our hiking adventure. The restaurant was a little empty at 8am and plenty of friendly staff. They had a jukebox and was encouraging people to put their money in and play their favorite songs (no TV's)..I liked the atmosphere. Our waitress was Marlene and she was extremely friendly and talkative (which I love)..Tony ordered a double Cheeseburger at 8am...lol!!! with Tomato, Lettuce and grilled onions and american cheese and a sweet tea..with hash browns with mushrooms and onions..I chose the chicken/cheese wrap with tomatoes, onions and lettuce and side of jalapenos with unsweetened tea with lemon. Our food was very good and only $13.28 with taxes. I pulled my food out of my wrap and made a salad our of my fixings..The wrap burrito tortilla was grilled and tasted fine but I am cutting back on points with My weight watchers so I didn't want the extra 4 points. So with the grilled chicken and veggies..for only 3 points..great deal on my points...loved it!!! Also the chicken gave me great protein and energy for my hiking. I recommend the restaurant. The food was good, The restaurant clean and the staff friendly!!! Stop by and have a quick bite. They are open 24 hrs per day and you can get anything anytime!!! read more

Waffle House - Yummy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

Its my first time eating at a Waffle House and I just want to say that the food is comparable to a Denny's, but its our server that made my experience great. Her name is Dora, a very kind, humble and crackin' joke kind of gal. Shes about 74 and shes full of life! She owns this location and she really makes you feel like you're at home. Thank you Dora (: read more

We ate at both Waffle Houses in Cookeville. This location has no sign off the Interstate so most out of towners don't know it's here. It was far less crowded than the other location. The food is the same low quality food all Waffle House locations offer. Meanwhile, the service was up to par. In fact, the same cook we had the two days prior at the other location worked a shift at this spot and did a great job with our breakfast. And, after all how bad can waffles and crispy bacon be, even at the Waffle House? Come here for very cheap food, good friend service and breakfast and you'll leave content. read more

This is the best Waffle I've been to in a long time. I travel quite a bit and Waffle House is a good go to place when you don't know the area you're in. But I feel like most of them have lost the fundamental Waffle House traditions. This place hasn't. The staff is friendly, especially our waitress, Tab. And they run like a well oiled machine. Shouting the orders in their short hand and marking the plates with their secret ways. The food came out in 5 mins and was exactly what and how we ordered it. This is why we went to Waffle Houses as kids... to see this magic that is the short order cooking of Waffle House! read more

Very nice staff if you're a regular otherwise you are kind of ignored tables are always sticky food is always good.

Great breakfast stop! Fast, friendly service, and delicious, cheaply-priced food. You'll probably leave here smelling like cooking grease...but it's all just part of the experience. Enjoy! https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-carnrick-44662a142/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100016962030360&ref=bookmarks read more

Wow. We stopped here for a quick breakfast pit-stop during a long road trip and I set my expectations pretty low. I'd never been to a Waffle House, but I hadn't heard very good things. Everything about this pit-stop was phenomenal -- from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Immediately, a receptionist warmly greeted us and found us a seat. Our waitress was there immediately. Food came a few minutes later; it was fresh, delicious, and oh so cheap. On our way out, we asked for water and our waitress immediately filled up a couple to-go cups for us. It feels weird to write this much about a fast food restaurant, but they really stole my heart. FAST, FRIENDLY, DELICIOUS and CHEAP. I couldn't ask for anything more. Maybe this one particular WH is the exception to the rule. In any case, if you are ever passing through Cookeville, TN on I-40, GO HERE! read more

Pretty typical waffle house. Fresh coffee and friendly service. The cook even came over to make sure we liked our breakfast.

Shout out to store 931 - food was very good and Hot - my bacon was just as I ordered it. Waitress was very nice - made fresh decaf and the restaurant was very clean. Bravo!! read more

A great, affordable meal! My sister and I were starving for some dinner on the 4th of July, and the Waffle House filled the bill in every way. The food is very affordable, with the options to add some fixin's to your hash browns. I have to say the fixin's were not necessarily fresh stuff (the mushrooms were canned), but they are very cheap, and once they were cooked-up in the hash browns, they were still delicious. I had a waffle (for $3.00), and the hash-browns (under $2.00), with mushrooms, cheese, onions and tomatoes (@ .80/ea). The coffee was fresh and was refilled whenever it was low. The service was great and friendly, and I will return if I am ever in the area again. read more

Been eating at Waffle House for years, and had a bad experience tonight. I found that they had no management. Or perhaps bad management. When I entered the restaurant on S. Willow avenue # 931 I found two employs, one young lady waited on me and the other young man seemed to be sitting at a table talking to his girlfriend. The young lady that waited on me had problems getting my order right. Then the young man brought me a Coke that I hadn't ordered. I told him I didn't order a Coke and the young lady had just left me some water. The young lady said to him I said I needed a cook. At that time the young man went outside and retrieved the cook. At that time I was the only one in the restaurant, there were more people in the parking lot than the restaurant. I finally got the right omelet. I felt bad for the young lady that waited on me, so I left her a tip. But when I got to the register she short changed me. I could tell she was having problems so I took the change and left. The ticket # was 334377433 the cost of the meal was $9.65. I gave her a twenty dollar bill and she gave me back the cost of the meal. But she should of given me $10.35 I no I will probably here nothing from your restaurant. Your staff needs to think about how they are perceived in a work place. read more

This is really good place I loved the food and the service is amazing friendly I strongly recommend you guys to give a try

Was teaching in Cookeville great food and very friendly staff. The place was clean and not your typical Waffle House.
