We're visiting family from out of town and the pictures here totally got us. It looked so good!! We went right when they opened, so no wait at all. We ordered the Bob Deluxe, Waffle Me Banana, and a latte. I didn't realize they serve Liège waffles, which are apparently way sweeter than regular waffles? There's a big sign explaining it when you walk in, I just didn't know before ordering When I took a bite, it honestly felt like I hit a little sugar ball. It was really sweet. Not bad, just not what I was expecting. Even the savory stuff leaned sweet, and you definitely don't need syrup. If you're in the mood for more of a dessert waffle, you'll probably love it. If you want a more traditional breakfast vibe, I'd go somewhere else.
I'm seriously Loving my weekends in Boise! The Restaurants downtown are Amazing! This place is amazing! The decor is fantastic, the service is friendly and the chicken and waffles were delicious! It's street parking but I got lucky and snagged a spot right out front!
Waffle Me Up specializes in Liège waffles named after the Belgian city in which they were invented. They differ from the classic Belgian waffles because of the heavier yeast-risen brioche batter. But unlike that part of Belgium, this Idaho version is most certainly not eaten plain. And the toppings are remarkably diverse and clever. In a very popular and vibrant store, boisterous crowds enjoy these freshly made waffles with custom ordered toppings. I personally like a good waffle with melted butter and copious amounts of powdered sugar. Unfortunately, cookie butter was the only alternative. And while delicious, it was closer to cold, uncooked batter than the melty goodness I prefer. And their version of a double dose of powdered sugar was what I would call a half dose at home. But it was still a delicious waffle, nonetheless. It's too bad there isn't a station to control your own butter and sugar quantities. But customers would probably abuse that. The waffle itself wasn't quite as good as my expectations after reading the sign's impressive description. But this is an excellent place for breakfast or brunch.
Bob Deluxe and Strawberry waffle was outstanding. The waffle batter is yeast based and crunchy and delicious! Owner is very kind! Was a great breakfast experience!
Waffles were good, quick and nice service! I ordered a Mocha Latte w/ hazelnut & raspberry syrup which is pretty good too!
Came here yesterday for brunch and really enjoyed it. The menu is very simple which I like and if you don't like waffles this probably isn't your place. They will basically build you whatever kind of creation you want off their menu onto a waffle or choose one of their own creations. I had the Bobs deluxe which was a base waffle with an over easy egg bacon and avocado and drizzled with syrup. Very good blend of sweet and savory. I also had the peanut butter and banana waffle also very good. Both waffles were very much enjoyed and hard to decide my favorite. Inside this place is shared with Boise fry company and has open seating between the places. Very clean inside and well kept with a good amount of high and low tables to choose from. What was the tipping scale for a 4 star was the service yesterday 11/19 at approx 11:30a. The young blonde male working was one of the nicest and friendliest people I have encountered in a long time. He made such an impression that my 19 yo Boise state student who recommended this place asked if we had the same guy yesterday and was a topic of our dinner conversation. In a time when businesses are strolling to find great help you have landed a gem. I wound highly recommend and will for sure be coming back.
I'm giving 4 stars, but 3.5 is more accurate for me. This place shares a space with Boise Fry Co, so if you just have to have some purple fries while you're here--you're in luck! We came in at 9:45 on the Saturday of family weekend--no small feat finding a place for 8 to eat! (Or any number, for that matter....) the menu offers sweet and savory waffles, about 4 varieties of each. Don't come here looking for something light or healthy to eat; better just to give in to your indulgence. They have quite a few smaller tables and a number of 8-tops and we had no trouble securing a table. Husband and I split the Bob Deluxe (egg, melted havarti, bacon, maple syrup and basil), no need for the avocado, IMO, because we also had lunch plans and didn't want to be too full. It was a bit small to split, so I guess if you're looking for light, this is the way. The flavors were tasty and went well together. The basil was a really nice touch. The waffle was more dense and chewy than I was expecting or wanting. I prefer a lighter fluffier, crispy on the outside waffle. But it looks like they are intentional and how they create their waffles. All in all, it was good, and I recommend giving it a try.
Great location right in downtown Boise close to the Capitol Building. We went on Monday morning and got were able to find street parking. You get 20 minutes and then you can get up to 2 more hours for about $5. When you go in, you order at the counter and then your food will be brought out to you. They share a space with Boise Fry Co. My husband and I ordered the chicken and waffles and my daughter ordered the kids Winnie #2 meal. My meal was delicious. The breading on the chicken had a good crunch and flavor and the chicken itself was moist as the waffle was sweet and delicious. My daughter loved her meal, especially since it included some of her favorites: strawberries, Nutella, and bacon! Staff was super friendly and the restaurant itself was clean with a lot of seating. Def come and check this place out! There is another location in Eagle.
Visiting from CA, and this place had all the good vibes and yummy waffles! We ordered the chicken and waffles as well as the waffle me strawberry. Both were super yummy! Their waffles have a sweetness and texture that is very unique! Also the owner and his daughter were so sweet and kind to literally everyone inside. The waffles were a great size and easy to share.

Simple, tasty, quick. Its basically like every pop up waffle place in southern california. The concept is simple, they make a waffle and top it with whatever you want. Nothing fancy, you get what you expect. There are plenty of places to sit. The waffles had a nice taste to them. The fruit was fresh. I don't know what else to say other than its nice when you get exactly what you expect from a place. read more
Was craving waffles so after some thorough research I decided to give this place a try, and so glad I did! Staff appeared to be friendly and the ambiance was nice but did feel crowded given that it was in the same space as burger place. Okay so the food now: Honestly, great waffles and chicken! Chickens were crisp and tender. I appreciate that they were hot and not just warm. Waffles had a great flavor and the portions were good too. I actually got a half of an avocado which was cool since most places give you like 2-3 slices nowadays lol Overall, great experience. read more

Dare I say the best waffles I have ever had? I dare. They were absolutely perfect in every way. My wife & split the sweet snd savory to make sure we tried a little bit of "everything" and I'm so glad we did. It was the perfect combo. The service/server was awesome, she helped us sub Nutella for cookie butter because we were torn on wanting strawberries over bananas, but not huge Nutella fans. Such. A. Good. Call. The only reason I have to take away a star is because we really wanted coffee with our waffles, but as soon as we saw a $2 up charge for alternative milk we had to back out, that's an insane jump in price for a $5 coffee & we can only drink oat or almond, so that's a bummer! But we'll be back for those waffles again, just grabbing our drinks elsewhere I suppose. read more

This place is pretty dang cool, to be completely honest. I love the idea, and the entire concept is executed very well! One of the servers was very nice to show my husband and I the sugar crystals they use to give the waffles their distinctive sweet taste. I actually really enjoyed my waffle and my husband's his as well. The peaches on my waffle were obviously fresh and not from a can. My husbands savory waffle was delicious as well! The egg was cooked perfectly and there was plenty of bacon piled on top. The waffles were rather small though, and my hungry wasn't satisfied at the end of the meal. I hate to criticize on price. I usually don't. In fact, most of the time I'm more than willing to pay more knowing my money is going to a local family business. As good as these waffles are, I'm not sure if they are so good as to charge almost $10 a waffle. And I hate saying that - it hurts me! But this is the one aspect that continually draws me away from Waffle Me Up. I think Waffle Me Up has the potential to become a Boise must-try restaurant one day. I would recommended to anyone, local or passerby. read more

A great place if you're craving a sweeter meal! There are not a lot of menu options and there are no vegan options. The waffles themselves are fantastic! The batter is made with a hint of sweetness so it balanced out the savory nature of the cheese and eggs. The waffles are on the smaller size though; about the size of a hand or a little bigger. The service was what made it a great experience. We were celebrating a birthday and they made sure to make it really special with a candle on the waffle. The waffles are $10+ but are stacked with a nice amount of toppings. The space is shared with the Fry Company so it can get a little rowdy since it's two locations in one. read more

Dropped in here for the waffles. It was fairly busy. It also shares a space with the Boise Fry Co. we placed an order for the Waffles & Chicken plus bacon, and a Bobacado Deluxe with no cheese. The kitchen prep space is open for everyone to see. It took about 10 mins for us to get our food. It was presented pretty. Omg. It was soooo good!! The gravy for the chicken I got on the side because I like to control the portions but it was sooo good. It reminded me of cream chipped beef gravy but I think it was bacon?? The chicken was nice and juicy not dry. We will surely return when in town. read more

I was introduced to liège waffles years ago at a hole-in-the-wall joint, Off the Waffle, in Eugene, Oregon. When they talk about Belgium waffles in Belgium, they're not talking about batter waffles in a deep iron. No, they mean yeast-dough waffles spiked with pearly sugar. After you've had the real thing, those batter ones pale in comparison. The liège waffles at Waffle Me Up are as good as they get. When you bite into the small pearls of sugar, you know why these are super special. I had the waffle and chicken, which comes with cream gravy. They were quite good. The order line was a little confusing. No one said we needed to move past the front case to the cash register to order. Another family walked past us without bothering to see if we were in line and went to order. The order taker didn't look around to see we were there first. Odd. The mocha I had was bitter. I would not order it again. I took off a star after watching a worker, in a store T-shirt, run outside to feed the meter right in front of the restaurant. Apparently, spaces out front are for workers and not customers. There are other towns where businesses are fined when their workers take spaces meant for customers. read more

My kids are still talking about their waffles a week later! The peanut butter honey on the banana waffle was one of the yummiest things I have ever eaten. Great customer service! I would definitely recommend this place. read more

Mmm! These waffles tasted like cinnamon rolls and even though I typically prefer not the mix savory with sweet, I thoroughly enjoyed my egg and cheese-topped waffle. The fresh-basil gave it an extra punch, and I knew it was fresh as I saw the potted basil plants on the counter. My spouse and children loved their strawberry waffles as well, and we appreciated that the portions aren't huge. We sat outside with the view of the capitol building a block away from us. The staff were pleasant and engaging as well. read more

I don't care how good the food is, but waiting for almost an hour to have our order delivered to the table is totally unacceptable. The staffs are young and slow. They finished other customers order before us. Very unprofessional customer services read more
If you like sweet waffles then this is the place for you! Not all the toppings are sweet, as there are plenty of choices that are savory. Bacon, eggs, cheese, chicken.....etc....The waffles themselves are sweet. My husband loved them! We shared a plain waffle with currant syrup and also the one with cheese, egg and bacon. They make a good waffle but as for me, they were a bit too sweet for my taste. But to each his own... if my husband wants to go back, I wouldn't say no! read more

BEST WAFFLES AND CHICKEN EVER!! Every time I visit Boise I have to make a stop here and I always get the waffle me up strawberry, fruits always fresh, warm waffle with Nutella and fresh whipped cream! This was the first time I got their fried chicken, oh my god, just go try it. It's so fresh and seasoned and the gravy was so great. The owner, Hector, always chats with us and offers the best customer service! I can't wait until they open at the airport this Winter! read more
