waffle house, i love you. specifically, though, caleb is the only server that you could ever want. i promise. my experiences at this waffle house have been somewhat uneven in terms of service, with a noticeable lack of consistency in diligence among some of the staff. but caleb is our breakfast-for-lunch godsend! he's funny, constantly attentive, and sharp as a tack. should he move on, an extraordinarily valuable asset will be lost. quite frankly, it is because of him alone that i continue to return and feel comfortable leaving five stars. in terms of ambiance; i have been coming to this waffle house since i was a little kid, and the only thing that's really changed for me is that i'm tall enough to sit comfortably at the bar. it's a waffle house. it has the necessities; it's always open. appropriately clean. a parking lot that has enough craters to make you wonder about medina meteor strikes, but the heart of hot, delicious diner food and unmistakably perfect hashbrowns. what i wouldn't give for an all-star breakfast each day. if you're in the area, you should stop by for me. read more

What I like most about Waffle house is that they make your food right in front of you on the grill. It's like the old days when my parents would take me to the Leader drug soda fountain and grill. Also Woolworths. read more

My friend got the loaded hash browns and a sausage sandwich I haven't eaten here for more than 10 years I got a chocolate chip waffle and a blueberry nougat waffle. I didn't expect them to dump the chocolate chips on top of the cooked waffle. They gave me lots of butter like I asked and they did have sugar free syrup. It was ok - my leftovers tasted good. My friend must have been extra hungry and they really enjoyed their meal ! That's all that matters.. read more

Perfect service and wait time was very minimal. Good vibes and overall had a great time here read more

Waffle House - American Near Me - Medina, Ohio

Waffle House is a huge chain restaurant. And for the most part I haven't had a problem at any Waffle House. And this location is no different. The staff appears to always be friendly and ready to serve. The restaurant isn't dirty in my opinion. I noticed at this visit the staff was actively cleaning. The food is good. And the choices are proper for a breakfast chain. I don't believe you'll have troubles here. But every person has a different way of life. read more

food is the best but for several years we get the server Lily( we try to avoid her) once and awhile. she yells at the customers when they wait and end upset down at a dirty table .The table is hers. But she is on the phone playing and allows table to sit and continue not being clean!!This has happens on several occasions. We have walked out on a few occasions because of this. We love the food and atmosphere, but hostility we Do not need. Today was the last straw. We will Not go back! To bad since we love to eat there with the other servers read more

Well let me preface this. I have eaten at MANY Waffle Houses across the south and Midwest (AL, MS, LA, TX, OK, MO, AR, TN, KY, etc) MANY. TONS. This is my go to always. One of my favorite meals of ALL TIME. Chicken Melt, 2 orders hashbrowns topped with Chili. Very simple and perfect if done correctly. Just cheese on the Chicken Melt. So it had been quite a few years since I had had one. Found myself in Medina OH and saw Waffle House. I went there with high expectations but figured there's no way up here it would still be that good after all those years up here none the less in Yankee country. Soooooooo, the vibe was the same, the staff was great, and the food.............. PERFECT!!! I couldn't believe it. The sort of garlic butter that the chicken is marinated in is still perfect. The hashbrowns? Perfection. . The chili great. I could have used some Tobasco but that's not picking. Anyway, it's as good as any Waffle House in the country. Thanks. Touched my heart read more

Had to fuel up was at a military burial service with mom, since it was a hour drive grabbed something to eat, I haven't been to a Waffle House in awhile, we decided for a booth, We sat in Wanda's area she had us wait for a second to wipe the table & seating off which were really appreciated, she introduced herself & greeted us with a lovely smile & made us feel so welcomed. Sheer got our drink order coffee for mom & water for me, she gave us ample time to look over the menu which mon just got the 2 eggs city ham, hash w/onions & white toast I had the same minus onions but add the waffle. Our meals were very delicious, the waffle was very crispy on the outside & inside it was soft with a hint of vanilla I tasted, my eggs was cooked exactly his I love it over medium, mom just scrambled, I've tasted mom's hash w/onions I tell you I should've gotten it next time I'll order mines just like that. Wanda got busy but kept replenishing our drinks before we could've even finish it which is a plus when a server does that, our over all experience was very memorable with Wanda being our server, there was a tall black gentleman whoo came up to us after we were done asking how our meal was? I told him "it was very delicious" he thanked us for coming then went back, everyone there we came in contact with greeted us with a smile & kindness, if I can give extra stars I would but we're limited 5's, keep up the great job... ¡¡¡BUEN PROVECHO!!! read more

We've eaten at Waffle Houses all over the east coast and rarely is the entire meal perfect. It was at this one! Service was great, grits were fresh, eggs perfectly made, and crispy bacon. Employees were friendly. Nice job!! read more

Stopped by Waffle House recently and had a pecan waffle with a side of hash browns. I think it's so cool that you can customize your hash browns with just about anything they serve. I opted for onions and cheese on mine, which was a great choice. The waffle was on point as was the service. Love that I have this place five minutes from home and it's open 24/7 to boot! read more

This Waffle House is the best I've ever been In! The waitress we had, older lady is the sweetest person I ever ever met in my life she deserves a raise ! And it's so clean! Definitely the cleanest I ever seen. Literally cannot express how good the food is as well as the staff! Whoever was working March 19 at 12:56 -120 y'all deserve a raise and everything you want in life. read more

I have an probably always will be an IHOP fan. I prefer them over Denny's and Bob Evens. This place is new, so the inside is quality. The servers have been fantastic from front to back. The food is really good (especially the pancakes). And it is open 24/7. They are making a push for Burgers (new fancy types :-) ). So I would give it a shot. Seems a stretch, but they do need to apeal to that 2:00 am fry-up person. read more

This was my first time ever at any waffle house. It was fantastic ! Every employee was extremely friendly. My server, Tammy, was very nice, friendly, professional. The service was fast, the food was great and a wonderful price. I am now a fan & will return tomorrow for breakfast again. Thank you for a wonderful first experience at a waffle house. read more

Waffle House - My first time ever at a waffle house. Thank you, a fantastic first visit. - American Near Me - Medina, Ohio

It's a Waffle House. That's about it. Standard menu, well done, basic diner food, but nothing to write home about. Except for the fact that it's like you're walking into Cheers! The staff here was so much fun. They knew every one who came in and the place was filled with laughter the entire time we were there. It was delightful. Staff can make it break a restaurant. This place has hired well and has a great crew. Thanks! read more

To start, I fully understand Waffle House is more of a sit down and eat place, but with take out orders being common now a days, there should be no excuse for how bad our take out experience was. Our order was placed, waited, we were charged the wrong amount, then the lady was super confused on why we wanted to be charged the right amount. Then, we were given the wrong order and thankfully noticed when we got in the car. When we took it back in to get our correct order, they gave the guy whose order we received to him (we told the guy to probably have them re make it since it had been taken out, in our car, etc). The whole experience was just not a good one and again, like I said, I understand maybe they don't do a lot of take out orders, but don't have that as an option, if the service is way beyond horrible and you can't handle it. read more

Horrible service. Walked in and waited 30 minutes to be completely ignored. Never again

Nicest waffle house ive been to in all the states, friendliest people you'll ever meet! Fast and quick

Our Waitress Jesse was terrible!!! she was rude, bad customer service, couldn't have asked for a more terrible server. Then had the nerve to make a (WOOHOO) noise as we were leaving! Don't recommend at all read more

The Waffle House. A national breakfast tradition. People get married at Waffle Houses. People plan family reunions at Waffle Houses. I really, and I do mean REALLY do not want to meet these people. The yellow plastic sign is a harbinger: this will not be fine dining. I know, I know. People love the place because it is cheap. Very cheap. If you only had the coins you found lodged between the seat and the center console, they would still roll out a full breakfast for you. WITH the standard three percent tip. So, here's the tradeoff: The Good? Price! It is cheap. Inexpensive. Downright stingy. If you can't afford Waffle House, chances are you'll never, ever see this review, because you'll be too busy re-writing your cardboard sign or standing by the exit ramp. Have I mentioned it doesn't cost much to eat here? The Bad? Everything else. They save money in so many ways. Cleanliness. Food quality. Lighting. Menus. Employees. This is the bottom of the food chain. This is where, if you're either still drunk or supremely hungover, you slide into a booth, pull down your ironic hoodie, and mumble, "Coffee. And whatever else I can get for... let's see... four dollars and thirteen cents. And Coffee." "We're not in the food business. We're in the people business." So goes their slogan. I kinda like my restaurants to BE in the food business. My final ruling: Betwixt one and no stars. Keep driving. (And Mark G? That last comment of yours is un-called for.) read more

Waffle House - "I'm gonna finish my coffee." - American Near Me - Medina, Ohio

Wonderful food and staff any time of the day you go! I love how they are opened 24 hours and everything is custom made fresh no matter the hour! We purposely travel to this location to get to enjoy all of the wonderful food and people and have become regulars. They have all different types of foods, not just breakfast, to try and also many different menu options. It is a very comforting environment like a 50's diner with a modern jukebox that takes credit cards. Also having the option of choosing where you would like to sit is more comforting than having to request a booth or table. All of the food tastes like you made it in your own kitchen instead of a plastic or oily taste! Very good and filling especially for long road trips. I guess that's why they are so famous for being a road trip restaurant. The leftovers reheat very well and I personally love the grits and hashbrowns! read more

Ahhh, Waffle House. It used to be a guilty pleasure until Sean Brock affirmed my affection for the place (check out Anthony Bourdain and Sean Brock Eat at Waffle House on YouTube). We had the two egg breakfast, one scramble and one over medium. I'd suggest not getting scrambled, they just don't come out nicely on the flat top grill. The over medium came out perfectly. We also got smothered hash browns that were delicious, and a side of sausage gravy over biscuits which was lights out tasty. The grits are something not to miss; creamy, buttery, flavorful deliciousness. Excellent location right off of I-71. read more

I've never had a bad Waffle House experience but this Waffle House is seriously above and beyond. The staff is amazing. Food is out quick, cooked perfectly, and served with a smile. The servers check in every few minutes to get you anything you need and are extremely polite. It's clean too, doesn't feel so much like eating at a greasy spoon diner. Wanda was our waitress and probably the best I've ever had, treats everyone like family, employees and customers. She keeps the whole place running smoothly and smiles the whole time. If I could leave even more stars for this place I would. An absolute essential for an Ohio road trip. read more

It's Waffle House. Roadside comfort food. Nothing fancy. But satisfying. Open 24 hours. Waitress was nice. Cook was fast. No problems with the food. The only complaint: the tables could have been cleaner. When it's 2am and you need to get off the interstate, or you had an argument with your roommate and need a place to go, Waffle House is there. And you're always welcome. read more

Food is always good, usually fast service. Really wish they had a way to order over the phone. Its 50/50 because Ive ordered no problem, other times nobody picks up the phone. Cant go wrong with Waffle House late night read more

Love the food here The waffles of course are a must. I like a side of bacon to go with it. Smothered hash browns are good too. I prefer them well done. Ice tea, I ordered 50/50 sweet and non sweet. Our server remembered us from last year. Pretty amazing the details she rendered about us. read more

On our way back from a night of bar hopping in Cleveland we were looking for a late night savior for drunk munchies. iHop's were all packed of course so we drove about 20 minutes outside of the city down 71 and low and behold like an angel descending from heaven we see a Waffle House sign lit up like a glowing invitation from the Gods. So we go to pull in and we get pulled over by a sheriff out of nowhere, granted we had a sober driver so no worries, he approaches the car, asks us where we came from and where we're going and we all tell him we're starving and he was really cool and told us to enjoy our night and drove off. Shout outs to the Medina sheriff department for that one. We made it into the Waffle House and were seated immediately, it was practically empty but there were a few customers. We ordered bacon cheeseburgers, BLT's, and waffles all together, the waitress threw the BLT's in for free! Amazing. Judging by my current state the food was a 10 but who really knows. I enjoyed myself. read more

The best waffle house so far. Always good food. I'll be back. Waffle House , we need one in Cleveland.

Uhh,I don't get the appeal? It's small, cramped, kinda dirty. The waffles were like big eggos, nothing special. The eggs and toast were fine but it's pretty hard to screw up eggs and toast. The hash browns were very average. I probably won't be going back. read more

On the spectrum of Waffle Houses, this one probably lands somewhere in the middle in terms of quality and service. We went in on a Saturday around lunch time. Service was attentive but a little slow to clear tables and really "hustle" even as there was a line forming. We sat at the counter so had a full view. The washing sink is right in front of the customers at the counter. Soapy water was being splashed everywhere, which was rather unappetizing and unsanitary. I ended up having to wipe away dishwater that splashed onto the counter where we ate. The staff of about 5-6 people work constantly but they're not all very careful with how they do things. There are small spills everywhere in the kitchen that nobody bothered to clean up. The waffle station was an absolute mess. Speaking of waffles, ours were a little disappointing. They were way too thin and flat. Bacon was fine (half fat, but it's expected). Raisin toast was burnt on one side. Eggs were cooked to order. Hash browns were crispy but flavorless. Coffee was watered down and flavorless. Not sure if this location ever followed Covid protocols but people were filled in every seat. No obvious ventilation but the AC was on full blast. None of the staff wore masks except for one waitress. It would have been less concerning except all the staff chatted constantly, even when they had customers' food in front of them. read more

Dude with the sonic hat at night can't even cook bacon correctly. Undercooked and upset my stomach. Displeased.

How can you not like the Waffle House? Just knocked back the pecan waffle loaded with butter and syrup. Oh and a side of sausage. You know the food is good when the kids are quiet. Place is far from fancy, but never disappoints. read more

As far as waffle houses go this was right there with the better ones. Of course it's Waffle House though, you go here to get a big down and dirty cheap breakfast. This isn't your gourmet brunch. I'd take a Detroit Coney Island breakfast over Waffle House most of the time but when I travel south I like to visit a Waffle House, it just reminds me of those great hung over mornings when I was stationed in Florida. read more

Back in the day, when I used to travel all over the country, I would look forward to my visits to the south. Warmth and sunshine in the winter .... fantastic BBQ ... and Waffle House. I made it a point to stop in at least once per visit for breakfast. Now they've expanded and one is even located not that far from my home. So, before I voted today, I decided to treat myself to a Waffle House breakfast. Of course, their breakfast is served all day long, so matter what time you wake up they'll be waiting for you. They still look the same, inside and out. I grabbed a seat at the counter and checked out the place mat/menu. My eyes immediately went to the All Star Breakfast. Get this: for under $10.00, including tax, I had coffee, a waffle, two eggs (over easy), toast, hash browns and three slices of bacon. And since they cook everything in front of you, you know everything is fresh. The eggs were nice and runny, perfect for slopping up with the toast. Bacon, cooked under that metal press thing they use, was crisp, as were the hash browns. I would have preferred the waffle been left in the maker a bit longer to crisp the outsides up some more. But, after smothering it in butter and syrup, I was happy. Just like old times! I noticed other reviewers complained about the service, but I couldn't have been more pleased with it. They were attentive and friendly (refilled my coffee cup twice), and checked in on me numerous times. Maybe I was lucky, or maybe there is a new attitude there, but I thought the service was fine. read more

Let me start the review off by saying I've been to waffle houses across the country and have had nothing but great experiences. When I heard that my girlfriend had not been to one I knew I had to take her to one! Waitress sucked she was the only one with out a name tag. She was very rude. Tried to take our order immediately, and when we said we weren't ready she gave us a very rude look. Didn't give us our 5 min check in to ask how everything was. Other than the terrible service from the old Latina waitress with the ribbon tattooed on her arm, the experience was good. I mean the food was good. read more

I'll never go back. went in here 9 months pregnant with a 2 year old me and my husband.

Lost all respect. fuck this place read more
