This was my first time visiting the waffle lab. I brought my daughter with me as its more fun to have breakfast with company. My daughter ordered the gluten free european waffle minus the nutella. I also ordered the gluten free/vegan european waffle. The portion sizes were definitely generous. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed all of her breakfast and thought it was delicious. Mine was a little bit sweet for me, if i were to go back again i would get gluten free vegan waffle with only the fruit on top. My husband would like to go and check out the waffle lab though so i imagine we will be back :) It is cool to know that there is a location that offers gluten free waffles. I have told some friends and they will be sending some folks over. The location is clean. The staff was friendly. There is limited parking however. read more

Waffles over pancakes anyday! Visited on a Friday for lunch and it wasn't busy at all. The place is clean and the environment is quiet and comfortable. This is a great eatery for a meal or even for dessert. The liege waffle is on another level. It's naturally sweet and I hardly needed to use syrup. There's a light crunch, but also soft. The Blue Sky Breakfast was a win and the chicken and waffles was some of the best I've ever had. They added a small piece of their sausage smothered in gravy and y'all, it was to die for. Also, tried a bite of the waffle burger and it was the perfect amount of sweet and savory. Not to mention, you get a good bang for your buck. I always love a food themed eatery and am interested in trying some sweet waffle combinations next time! read more

Based on experience at Taste of Fort Collins on Saturday night. Walked right up to order through assembled crowd. The lack of wait to order combined with the large crowd waiting for food should have clued me in to move on. The woman taking my order warned that food would take 25-30 minutes. Much longer than desirable, but I figured I could manage that wait and proceeded with my order: chicken and waffles for $16 + tip. Thirty minutes pass. 10 more minutes pass. Finally at about 47 minutes after I placed my order, with the headline concert time fast approaching, I inquire where my order is on the queue. She a scrolls down past many orders ahead of mine and predicts at least 15 more minutes. I request refund and walk away. No dinner for me at "Taste of FoCo". :( Bottom line: Worst food truck experience ever. Please, know your limitations and figure out how to accurately tell customers how long the wait. One hour is truly unacceptable, as one does not attend festivals to wait around for food to miraculously appear. Had I been told from the outset that it would be an hour or more, I wouldn't have ordered and could've chosen another place to eat. I gave two stars only because I've eaten their food after a Fortitude run years ago and it was good. Also because it couldn't have been easy for the poor girl taking orders to have all those hungry eyes staring at her hoping their order was next. She was nice. read more

Had a great meal at the Waffle Lab. It was our first visit and won't be our last. I like that the waffle is a bit crunchy on the outside yet soft and chewy on the inside. We tried the chicken and waffles and the raspberry, bacon waffle. They were both very good. The savory, sausage/rosemary gravy was very tasty. The portions are very generous ( hello leftover for tomorrow) and plated to look very appetizing. The staff were friendly snd helpful. Cute, cozy dining area as well as some outfit seats for warmer weather. They have the usual beverages as well as a few alcoholic choices. Great breakfast or lunch stop with friends or a lazy weekend morning. read more

Great food! You can get sweet or savory or spicy! Truly something for everyone! Very reasonably priced. It's an order at the counter type of place but the food doesn't match that, in a good way! They do have alcohol as well. Fast casual and delicious! read more

The liege waffles are unique with crunchy carmelized sugar. We ordered four different waffles and they were all good. I haven't seen any restaurant like this anywhere else. They have variety and unique choices. They were very busy but we got our food within a reasonable amoint of time. The lattes/coffee drinks were really good, if you like sweet coffee. read more

Pretty awesome spot, we were staying near by and wanted to get some amazing chicken and waffles and it didn't disappoint! It's a smaller quick stop spot so seating can be interesting but the food was delicious! read more

This is probably the best bang for your buck breakfast/brunch place in Fort Collins. They are very generous- lots of fruit, hella Nutella, and whip cream sky high (on the European waffle). It's very filling, making it well worth the price! I'm a waffle over pancakes person so I'm biased, but I feel the waffle itself was really well done too. The side of eggs I got to go with it was just some protein - nothing special but did the job. The staff are super friendly and I felt well attended to. Glad I gave this place a try before leaving Fort Collins! read more

Such a fun treat! The hubbs and I went for brunch and it was a sweet little outing. There are quite a few drinks, alcoholic and non, and cold and warm, on the menu. My spouse had a Bloody Mary for the first time, using a pickle and habanero 50/50 mix - it was a hit! I enjoyed some mellow mint tea, perfect way to gradually get the appetite going. His burger waffle was astounding - somehow the sweet waffle 'buns' balanced well with the savory burger and toppings. Super filling though, could probably be split btw two people. I went in for the maple bacon ( had to get something sweet to balance the savory). Love me some traditional waffle with raspberries and bacon - sweet and salty. And mine came with half a waffle, which was a great portion size for me. Bonus: gluten free and vegan waffles are an option! I also saw they offer catering, which would be great for sleepovers Only catch, there is only one batter - and it is incredible. But a different batter would be interesting. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ read more

So glad I ended up trying this place! I had the European waffle (Nutella, whipped cream, strawberries, and banana) and it was perfect. Their waffles are crispy and have a buttery flakiness to them that I haven't ever seen before. They also made sure to load it up with the fresh fruits! I was also really impressed by the service. My boyfriend ordered the sweet potato hash, but they were out of it. I guess they really wanted to make it up though because they gave him some of their perfectly seasoned, crispy breakfast potatoes as well as a full-size waffle (cinnamon sugar with cream cheese glaze). The sweet potato hash was only seven dollars and they gave him an entire waffle and breakfast potatoes instead for free ($16 value)! My friend had the chicken tenders with gravy and said it was wonderful, there was so much food he ended up with a whole extra meal. We will definitely be back! read more

The Chicken & Waffles - I liked the waffle by itself but it was too sweet with the chicken. I took it home and ate them apart. Big portion! Grilled cheese waffle was also pretty big. Beautiful cheese crust on it, looked really good. I also had a beermosa with the Sour (not sure what brand, sorry!) and it was delicious. Very tart, but that's what I like! It was my first time here and I got a little confused about bussing the table myself, I wish there were more directions about which trash goes where. But once we got stuff over there it was easy enough to tidy up. read more

I want a Waffle Lab where I live! I thought they were only a food truck so I was excited to see a storefront when we arrived. They had both indoor and outdoor seating open, so we sat outside to enjoy the weather. The number of creative options they had was overwhelming. I absolutely love liege waffles, so adding two of my favorite foods (raspberries and bacon) on top was sure to be a hit with the Maple Bacon Bliss. Although I was full, I honestly could have eaten another waffle and considered it! This place has their waffle making down. read more

Waffle was very dry and flavorless. Food looks good, but is boring and uninspired. Nothing we got for lunch was worth the $$$. Got the Blue Sky Breakfast. Eggs were overdone, tomatoes sliced sloppily and nothing seasoned. Gordon Ramsey would roast this place. I spoke with some of the staff, apparently one of the Managers frequently gives the kitchen staff and front of house alcohol to keep them motivated. If I wanted a drunk person to cook me breakfast I would just cook it myself. Explains the sloppy food and lack of care. Whoever the owner is needs to wake up and see that this place is crumbling faster than the waffle I was served. Update: Not going to email anyone directly regarding this. I would recommend the owner watch the security cameras and validate the information presented in this review. read more

I was excited to try this place, and will probably never return. The first table was sticky. The second table was sticky and there was sticky on my chair. I poured water out of my glass and cleaned the table and chair. We ordered two items. My friend's, grilled cheese waffle, was good. Mine was stone cold, like refrigerator cold. And my silverware was sticky. I took it back. A few minutes later it arrived back, not even lukewarm. Deciding that they couldn't handle this dish, I ordered something else. They were out. Finally, I caved and picked the easiest possible item, about the most bland scrambled eggs I've ever had. Which is I when I discovered that the salt and pepper shakers were even more sticky than the table, chairs, and silverware. Nice looking place, conveniently located, and the bacon was excellent. It's in desperate need of a complete clean and a new way to heat food. read more

Friendly, fast, and tasty! So many choices so we had to try savory and sweet, which were all delicious! read more

HORRIBLE. Minimum 45 minute wait. We ordered to go then went to the splash pad around the corner to wait for our order. EVENTUALLY, it was ready. Take it to-go and they included ZERO condiments (ketchup for the burger, syrup for the waffles). Had to go all the way back for it. Waffles were DOUGHY and underdone. What an embarrassment of an establishment! The staff was rude too, didn't even apologize to people who were waiting an hour+. Plus tomato on my no tomato burger waffle. read more

We went to the food truck outside of Funk Werks and it was really really good. We just had the chicken and waffles split as an appetizer for 4 (to tide us over to dinner) and it was filling. The savory waffle was very good and the sausage gravy was some of the best that i have had. Definitely will be trying some other dishes in the future! read more

They have hands down the best waffles in town. There's something about that batter - pure magic! I got the chicken and waffles. The waffle was fresh, the chicken perfectly fried and piping hot, the gravy was light and refreshing. The maple syrup tasted very authentic. My wife got the CYO Scrambled Eggs with Caramelized Onions, Avocado and Jalapeños. She loved it too. The potatoes on the side were crisp and delicious. Add to this the friendly staff - our host was great, kind and courteous! Parking can be difficult but the place is well worth it! Thank you Yelp for the offer to check this out. read more

Food quality and portion was awesome. Good size especially for me, I love to eat. The European was exactly what I expected, something to satisfy the sweet tooth. Chocolate was not overwhelming, good ratio to fruit:waffle:whip cream:chocolate The Philly Waffle was underwhelming in my opinion. I expected a savory-sweet take, but I think the sweetness from the waffle was a little too over bearing. Additionally the fries were cut in a very peculiar way. Very fine and smaller then anything I've had. It was almost annoying trying to baby feed myself these fries. It felt like I needed a fork to eat them but then it was weird to shove horizontal fries in my mouth. Great idea for a meal but not the best execution. Overall they have a fantastic menu and offer a variety of other waffle renditions of common meals. read more

*WARNING* I called the Waffle Lab before coming down. I'm glad I did call first. Let me explain why. So even though the Waffle Lab claims that they have both "gluten free" and "vegan" ingredients for their waffles, they cannot do both at the same time. I called to talk to them about this and was passed to the "general manager" who had a poor attitude, basically telling me to take it or leave it, and refused to let me speak with the owners about their restaurant. Well, now the owners of the Waffle Lab can thank the "general manager" for letting the public know that the Waffle Lab is not completely up to par with times, for not caring or trying to accommodate customers, and for having a poor attitude towards feedback. My suggestion: Is to not come here. You can find some place better, such as Snooze or the Urban Egg. Hey... it's Fort Collins... I'm more than sure that other breakfast places in town that can politely serve their customers with both gluten free and lactose free ingredients at the same time. read more

Our server here might be the best around. Super friendly. This place is delicious. I highly recommend the gluten free waffle, I don't need gluten free my wife does, and her waffle was awesome. Mine was awesome too but her's was even better. This place could be my new favorite dessert spot but I don't live close enough, which might be a good thing cause I could see myself gorging on waffles. read more

Service was great, nice and friendly. Cafe style setting almost 1960's 1970's look. Awesome dish. Pancakes, waffles and French toast are delicious. I had the chicken and waffle and don't know if I had chicken because the drumsticks was smaller than my pinky finger! And the chicken wings are so small that there was no meat on the bone. I did not ask the waitress about the size of the chicken, just thought the are serving quarter hens. Now at home thinking what did they served? They did not say what kind of chicken on their. If somebody eating at this place and had chicken and waffles, please identify what they serve. Thank you. Rick Very sorry about this review! I got the wrong restaurant. Please forgive me. The restaurant is in San Jose, Ca. Uncle John Waffle House... I feel so bad. read more

This is one of my favorite breakfast places in Fort Collins! I usually get the Blue Sky Waffle and I have never been disappointed. I have had a manager go above and beyond for me and my partner when there was a miscommunication with our waitress resulting in the loss of our order. Truly a gem! My biggest recommendation is to go early OR to be prepared to wait awhile for a table! Food is definitely worth the wait :) read more

We actually like Waffle Lab very much (we can get vegan waffles here) but this visit I have to give them a bad review. We ordered for take out so couldn't send anything back. We added strawberries to the vegan waffles and ended up with maybe 2 berries and I'm being generous there. I believe the cost for that was $1.25 - rip-off. We always loved their rosemary roasted potatoes but they don't do those anymore so we ordered the plain roasted potatoes. The order was undercooked and drowning in oil. Not good, basically inedible. They charge extra for maple syrup but when I asked if syrup was included in the waffle order she freely gave us extras. WTH. With inflation what it is these days this meal wasn't worth the $30. I hope they read their feedback and this is better next time. read more

We loved the food truck so when they opened a spot in Old Town we were there right away. This is more a treat for us rather than our go to place but it's definitely a must try if you are in the area! read more

I use to love Waffle Lab when they started as a food truck and they always had consistently good waffles with lots of options. I even used to take friends from outside of FoCo here. I feel since moving to this location the food has become spotty the last few years. The last several times I haven't enjoyed it as much. One of my favorite waffles to order was the Big Poppa, the last few times my fiancé and I have ordered, quite a bit of the waffle was burnt and barely had any jalapeños, a total of maybe two. Further, we did have one incident of feeling ill after consuming the Big Poppa waffles (maybe the cream cheese had been left out too long?) We probably should have mentioned something when that happened but we had hoped it was a one time fluke. Unfortunately, I have to agree with some other reviews and say getting the rosemary potatoes or the sweet potato hash has left me disappointed. Sometimes it's tasted fresh and good, other times a little rubbery or soggy as if it had been sitting out too long. Also, their hot chocolate is premixed/preconcentrated so you're not able to get it dairy free. On a plus side, I do like that they carry Happy Lucky Teahouse teas and present it in a cute teapot you can serve yourself. I do think their sweeter and classic waffles are usually a good quality unlike their more savory waffles which is more hit and miss. For the pricing I feel like the quality needs to be more consistent and not just hit or miss. read more

Mmmmmm, you had me at homemade waffle! What a fun place to eat at - what's not to love?! Everything is made to order with fresh, high quality, local ingredients AND they support their community by using ingredients from local businesses and by allowing non-profits to display art for sale. Some wonderful photos from W.O.L.F. (located in Rist Canyon) currently adorn the walls along with information on how you can purchase a photograph and help their important mission. I love that they used reclaimed Colorado wood and some from the beetle kill on their walls too! We shared a Classic Liege Waffle which comes dusted with cinnamon and sugar - it reminded me of a waffle mixed with a funnel cake. We also shared an order of large Frites that comes with your choice of 3 droolworthy dipping sauces. We chose Dill Onion Aioli, Whiskey Cherry Aioli and Jamaican Jerk Aioli. They were all good. Each of us had a different favorite. One of us ordered the Big Poppa - grilled jalapenos and cream cheese layered between 2 halves of the classic liege waffle sealed with melted swiss and cheddar on the outside. You can customize it with all kinds of add-ons too. One of us ordered the Mild High Grilled Cheese - Swiss and Cheddar melted around a classic liege waffle. You can customize it with all kinds of add-ons too. And one of us ordered the Veggie Benedict - two beautifully poached eggs with tomato, spinach and avocado atop the classic liege waffle with hollandaise sauce. Service was friendly and our food was fresh and delicious! read more

Delicious waffles! I ordered the Health Nut waffle, which comes topped with Noosa honey yogurt, granola, sliced bananas, and blueberries. A truly delightful combo. For the low-low price of $2, I also ordered a side of scrambled eggs. Quite the steal! While the food (and almond milk lattes!) were top notch, the service situation was SUPER slow.

Grilled cheese waffle (did you know this was a thing? because I didn't. And honestly, I feel a bit cheated), the Blue Sky, and the classic. Each were a delight. The classic doesn't need maple syrup, but, Waffle Lab's so delicious you should get it anyway. If you're a fan for tea (like me) this alone, could be a reason for you to visit.
