Came for the Jamboree Fallout Festival, had a Belgium waffle with berries and an egg with toast. The waffle was fluffy. They were kind and attentive. Thank you waffle hut! read more

Don't bother. Hard to mess up a diner burger but the meat tasted old. The ketchup on the table was old. Fries decent. Cole slow soggy and stale crackers. read more

Our server, Sarah, was the best! Efficient, knowledgeable, and nice! Unfortunately, the restaurant has seen better days (see old photos posted compared to my current photos). Sarah was the only server and appeared to also be the bus person until someone came out to clean up the many dirty tables. The food was average. I liked my pancakes. My husband liked his omelette. We weren't impressed with the sausage, biscuits, and hash browns. We found this restaurant because it had 4 star reviews on Yelp. I am being generous with 3. read more

one of our favorite stops during our recent 2-week road trip. There for breakfast on a Thursday. LOTS of locals there. Almost always a good sign. Food was good. Portions more than enough. Price was as expected. Wait was less than expected with just two servers who were "tag-teaming" tables. Definitely would return. read more

Excellent service, friendly staff. We stopped on our way to Clarksburg. Reasonably price. My son had steak and eggs and I had the western omelet. Opens at 7am and we got there around 8. It was quite busy for a Saturday morning. I felt like our service was quite speedy. Food was great. We left full! read more

This was the perfect place for breakfast. Wonderful local spot with great pancakes and biscuits and gravy.

Family went here for breakfast we all had pancakes and bacon. The blueberry pancakes was packed full and looked delicious I totally should have had those. But my pancakes were still perfect. Restaurant was clean and very nice hardwoods inside with tall ceilings. Lots of locals eat here I noticed. I would eat here again. read more

Came here on a lil visit and got the biscuits and gravy... HOLY COW! Thickest, richest gravy, and they don't short you on portions. Amazing food, GREAT prices, and the friendliest staff ever. Forget any other breakfast options, when in town, stop here. Cutest little spot. Feels like I'm sitting in my grandma's dining room!! I'm a first-timer and I already feel like family!! read more

Great place to eat. Family enjoyed the food. Loved the pecan waffle. Friendly staff.

I've been to this restaurant several times. Each time was a diminishing experience. The last time we were there it took forever just to place our order. And the place was not that crowded. I believe they just forgot we were there. They won't get another chance to forget me. read more

A shabby old place with super friendly people and really delicious food! Had blueberry pancakes, sausage and eggs. Everything was wonderful! Will definitely be back! read more

Simple yet so good. The honey dipped fried chicken is excellent, with big servings. Even though our server was working alone, she was very good and never showed her frustration. read more

The Golden Waffle was great! I wouldn't recommend anything but waffles there. Everything else was pretty bad. Even the iced tea was bad. ***I'm upping my previous rating. We came back on a road trip and I got the Belgium waffle this time. It was awesome. Absolutely great. read more

My boyfriend and I are driving home from our vacation in WV. Still have 6 hours left in our drive and decided to stop in for breakfast. Phenomenal service and wonderful food for a great price! Highly recommend this place!! (: read more

Through the lips and though the gums... watch out stomach here it comes! EXCELLENT food! We make it our priority to stop here when traveling back to New York. Great food, great service, all is capital O for OUTSTANDING!!! read more

I have worked in many restaurants and ate in even more and this one has the best food of any. Chains should visit if they want to find out what quality and service are all about. Word of mouth should keep this restaurant in business for generations to come. If you leave hungry you have only yourself to blame! read more

Good Belgian waffles and pancakes! The place is not fancy, but the servers were friendly and quick.

I've never personally made my way to one of Guy Fieri's restaurants but I have seen virtually every episode of the show that makes his career what it is, "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". Look, I love fine dining. I enjoy getting a little dressed up and having a formal evening full of excellent food and a classy ambiance. As much as I enjoy such things, I love those diners, drive-ins and dives just as much. Nothing beats road food, the unassuming holes in the wall that keep sending out plate after plate of deliciousness. It doesn't have to be exquisite to be good, and as good as a $48 per plate dinner featuring Chilean Sea Bass can be, a good burger or meat loaf dinner at a diner can be every bit as good. Judge places for what they are supposed to be. Not every restaurant falls into the same category. In that vein, often times the best, tasty, greasy dinners in the world come from places that make you say, "I don't think I should eat here" when you walk through the entrance. Take the risk. More times than not, you will be glad you did. Personally, I never miss a home football game at Mountaineer Field, and get to as many basketball games as I can The West Virginia Mountaineers are a priority. Tradition is not to be messed with. On the way home, rain or shine, win or lose, day game or night game, the postgame meal is at Waffle Hut. If nothing else, well over a decade of time is evidence enough of the quality. If it wasn't good, I wouldn't go back time after time. One step into the building leaves you wondering if you have entered a time machine. The decor and furniture, even the plates and cups, are dated but feels just like home. If the prettiest place in the world produces bad food, no one notices the light fixtures anymore. When the menus are brought to the table, they are further evidence that you may have just accidentally stepped into 1988. The prices are remarkably low, especially considering the amount of food that is brought to your table within a few minutes. The proprietors of Waffle Hut are not seeking a Michelin star. They just want customers leaving happy, and that they do. I did get a smile from another reviewers statement that Chef Robert [Irvine] needs to come save Waffle Hut. I love Restaurant: Impossible and never miss an episode. That said, Robert Irvine only saves restaurants that need saving, those that do no business, lose money, and have very little hope. A place that is constantly doing business, is open 24-7-365, and is absolutely packed on weekends to a point where getting a table can be difficult at times.... does not need to be saved, and that's definitely a good thing. Support local business! While the Waffle Hut name suggests a menu similar to that of Waffle House, Omelet Shoppe, or a similar type of restaurant, the selection is actually far more diverse than expected. The breakfast menu is full of traditional offerings: waffles, pancakes, a range of pork products, biscuits and gravy, potatoes however you like them, and more. The dinner menu, however, is where the quality is delivered even more. The Honey Dipped Chicken dinner is always piping hot out of the kitchen, cooked to order, served with fries but they will gladly substitute mashed potatoes and gravy. The open-faced Hot Roast Beef sandwich is a diner classic, with chopped roast beef piled between two pieces of white bread, halved and stuffed with mashed potatoes before being smothered in brown gravy, and it is everything a diner lover could want. Simple but satisfying is the name of the game. For those seeking an even richer, stronger flavor, the Country Fried Steak is the dinner of choice. Even the gravies on the plate are contrasting in color and flavor. The fresh cooked cube steak, breaded and fried, comes topped with a tasty white gravy, while the mashed potatoes are served with the brown gravy that is a staple of several Waffle Hut dishes. So what makes this place stand out? One word: Coleslaw. There have been many dinners of many kinds in many places, from restaurants to homes to church picnics and all points in between, but I have never had coleslaw as good, much less better, than Waffle Hut's. Order breakfast, order dinner, order dessert, you can't go wrong... but make sure you have some coleslaw with anything and everything. More than once I have tried to acquire the recipe, and the efforts have failed, but perhaps that is for the best. It keeps the slaw a treat associated with the trips to Morgantown. Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, there is never a bad time for Waffle Hut. The well-known Exit 67 for Flatwoods is loaded with gas stations and fast food joints of every ilk. Skip them. Take the time to venture into Waffle Hut, have some slaw, enjoy the evening, and resume your trip on a full stomach without the rush. You'll be glad you did. If it is on a gameday in the fall, Let's Go Mountaineers. read more

Typical diner fare. The service was okay. The rush must vary. Every table was covered with the remains of someone's meal, but there was hardly anyone there. read more

Waffle Hut - Merry Christmas - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flatwoods, West Virginia

Very unsettled with the fact my fiancé had waited over 10 minutes for a refill on his drink without any assistance. We attempted to flag down a waitress twice. They came for us to pay our bill though. ( he has a stomach condition that requires him to have a good amount of beverages to help the food wash down.) waitstaff is terrible and the dust in the restaurant is disgusting. read more

Very good service, country fried steak was perfect, hot roast beef sandwich was on point. Very old time feel to the place that really makes you feel at home, whenever I travel through flat woods I will definitely stop here to eat! read more

Waffle Hut - Country fried steak and mashed potatoes! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flatwoods, West Virginia

The food is amazing! Hot meals with plenty to eat and some leftover to take home with you. The roast beef, western omelettes, the tomato or sausage gravy on the big fluffy biscuits, oh and don't forget the biggest, fluffiest pecan waffles you ever saw. If you eat here once you will come back for more. I was visiting family and in from Nashville, Tennessee with my mother and husband and we had breakfast every morning for a week at the Waffle Hut! Jeannie and April are sweet and funny! The bring everything you need and serve it with a smile. They check on you with a smile. If you get a chance go try the Waffle Hut! read more

Good ol country cooking... If that's what you like this is the place for you. I had breakfast actually made over medium eggs right cheap too read more

Staff is very friendly. Food is great. Has a nice room in the back to rent for meetings. Paying is a little slow when using a card but that due to the connection. read more

Food was excellent!! My husband and I were there around 7p, and ordered breakfast, eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, and pancakes. Will definitely go there again !! read more

A Braxton County institution. Waffle Hut offers sandwiches and home-cooked dinners, homemade pies, and of course, breakfast 'round the clock. A haven for late nighters, its one of the only places to eat in Braxton County after midnight. Nothing special about the menu, but everything is tasty and good. read more

Waffle Hut-----Awful Hut, Dirty. Dated. In sad need of updating. Gaping holes in booth seats. Mismatched and worn furnishing. Not an appealing dining experience. The establishment does not present itself well. The food and service are not much better. Both are average at best. A decent menu offering a good range of choices. The food tastes like it came from a jar, can, bag, or frozen box. Very little seems to be fresh or freshly made. Has potential. Friendly staff. Located in an "oasis" on I-79 between Charleston and Clarksburg, WV. Candidate for a Restaurant Impossible rehab. When was the last WV Board of Health inspection? read more

This restaurant is dirty looking. Its like stepping into an aged dirty picture of a restaurant from the 80's. The service is beyond terrible, plan to wait, and wait, oh ya and wait. By the time I get my food I'm so tired of waiting looking at this dingy place that I have lost my appetite. Before you think, maybe you have been on an off day, know I have been at least half a dozen times and each time is the same. read more

This is where locals hang out. I like that about this place. Unfortunately, not being local, we didn't get much attention from wait staff. That's my primary complaint about the joint. Like other reviews pointed out, they seemed slow to clear tables--although when we visited there were a ton of cleared tables... I could see how if you're short on staff (or they're chatting with the high school kids) tables may not get bussed very promptly. The food was acceptable. It wasn't great, but the portions are generous and calories are calories. read more

From the outset four stars seems generous, right? I thought so myself when I designated that fourth star. I attended a continuing education seminar in the sleepy, interstate adjacent hamlet of Flatwoods. When the lunch break rolled around I asked an attendant at the conference center about dining options. She shrugged and offered that locals enjoy The Waffle Hut. The choices for dining are limited: Subway, McDonald's, Arby's, and a generic looking family owned Mexican joint. The Waffle Hut it is. Proximity to the conference center was a bonus. Let's touch on the negatives. The exterior is dated. The bathroom seems to predate the exterior. How is that even possible? The floors were littered with the cast offs from toddler's breakfast plates. I'm glad that's out of the way- we can move on to the positives. The waitress was friendly, and as well worn as the carpeting. My friend and I chose Western omelettes- American cheese, ham, peppers, and onions encased in three perfectly browned eggs. Hashbrowns came on the side with hearty wheat toast. This omelette was delicious: cheesy; well seasoned; and teeming with ham, peppers, and onions. The hashbrowns were a nice addition. The quality of the food overshadowed the shabby decor, disrepair, and lack of attention to cleanliness. The only regret I have is that I did not order a waffle. A waffle was carried past my table and its delicious aroma wafted... Let's just say Leslie Knope would have shed a tear. Thank you Waffle Hut for a delicious meal. read more

Waffle Hut - Western omelette. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flatwoods, West Virginia

UPDATE SUMMER 2018 - THEY HAVE A NEW FLOOR!!! That old dank green carpet is gone, replaced by laminate flooring. They also told me they plan to refloor the front room (currently done in formstone) when they can afford to do it in one shot, sometime later this year. Original review below the line, untouched. -------- Mostly pretty good. Now, to be fair, I'm a local, I hate to cook, and so the Waffle Hut is always there - and I go there often enough that I've either seen or experienced most of the things the bad reviews say. They don't usually have more than two waitresses on duty, often it's only one, and they often have to multitask. And during peak hours, the service gets backed up and slow. The carpet is ancient and not the greatest looking carpet. But generally, they're good. There's a little history lesson to go with the Waffle Hut. It opened when Skidmore's Motel was local entrepreneur John Skidmore's flagship motel in Flatwoods. Back then, everything was shiny and spic and span, and the glass counter by the cash register was filled with doodads and overpriced tourist candy. But since then, Mr. Skidmore opened a Days Inn, and since he's never been big on maintenance, Skidmore's Motel has deteriorated, and the trappings of the Waffle House with it. The food is usually between good enough and delicious, but the carpet.... the best thing I can say about the carpet is that they recently replaced the booths, and maybe they'll get the carpet too some day. But that carpet's 20 years old at the least. Second, although it was open 24 hours a day for decades, in Spring 2016 it started closing between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. - I assume the Moe's across the street has something to do with that. The food is country home cookin'. Nothing fancy, just tasty. The country fried steak is usually one of their best efforts, the sausage gravy and biscuit is good. The pancakes are hit or miss, but they're never bad, and they're sublime when they're good. The apple dumplings they sell for dessert are good too - they used to do custard pies on the weekend, but not anymore, and I'm not really a fan of fruit pies so I've not tried any of those. read more

Service is horrible. I've been here on several occasions and the service is always slow. It's a seat yourself restaurant, which wouldn't be a problem if you were willing to clear the table from the patrons before you. There were more empty dirty tables than there were tables with people and clean tables combined. Our salads came with our food, no silverware. The food was okay...edible and reasonably priced. read more

live up this way but have never stopped here on my way to and from milton wv. decided to stop here on way to southern wv to celebrate my birthday. staff wonderful cheerful and had smiles on their faces!! food was great and great price I WILL BE STOPPING HERE AGAIN!! thank you read more

Stopped in last Friday, Sept. 14, for breakfast while traveling to KY. Staff was very friendly and attentive even though we weren't "locals." Pancakes and Waffles were delicious! When traveling, we look for non-chain restaurants and this one is a gem! Looking forward to stopping in again. read more

We were really looking forward to our stop there but we're extremely disappointed. We came in and seated ourself like the sign suggested. We waited about 15 minutes to be served and watch another group come in after us and be served. We could have asked to be served I guess but why should we bother to give our money to such an awful place that fails to offer at least basic customer service. This place should have a sign that reads: flannel shirts, boots, and jeans only. read more

A refreshing break from standard rest stop food. I couldn't bear to eat at another Mc Donald's. Thank goodness we found this place still open at 10PM (it's open 24 hours!) The Hot Roast Beef with mashed potatoes was yummy AND I got a side of green beans! Yay for veggies! The decor doesn't look like it's changed much since the 1970's, but I don't mind, as long as the food is good. PS- did I mention the food is super cheap? :) read more

The biscuits and gravy are amazing, huge portions. The restaurant itself has always been clean and the wait staff friendly. Always seems like a local favorite and our favorite local stop. read more
