Great spot. We stumbled on this shop while visiting the town from our campsite. Great little shop to get warm and grab some coffees and waffles. Very polite staff. Highly recommend. read more

Too expensive. Waffle was not bad, but also not that much special for the price. Definitely skip the milk tea, mostly water down milk tea. read more

Wanted a sweet treat so decided to stop by Waffleton. Super glad we did! Firstly, the service was fantastic. Paula, the owner, was there and was absolutely lovely to not just us but each customer that came in. Her and her (I think husband?) were super making sure that everyone had a good experience and enjoyed their food. These waffles were truly splendid! Soft inside and crunchy on the outside. My husband got the regular Belgium waffle and I got mine with peanut butter, reeses and Oreos. It was the perfect sweet treat to end the day. We noticed they have savory ones too and I have zero doubt that their breakfast ones are tasty too. There are a few tables inside to sit and there's a parking lot to park. It's a cute modern and clean place! read more

Very friendly lady at the register. Straight brown hair. BUT the hot chocolate was absolutely gross. When I sipped it I had chunks of milk I. My mouth I spit it out and went in to remix it, then went back outside. Took another drink and the same thing happened. It was awful, I didn't want to say anything because was with my family. The same thing happened to my daughter. Idle Wild employees need to be more welcoming to the visitors. I spent 17 bucks and it was definitely not a good experience. The place is cute with plants and decorative... definitely not worth it read more

The milk boba tea me and my friend filled with 90% ice was 8 dollars, why so much for such a bad drink? We drank it and my friend said the boba tasted like air it tasted like nothing read more

Such good waffles!!! Its chewy and crispy with a touch of sweetness. I had the salmon with cream cheese and it was best combination. Better than any bagel honestly. This will definitely be my first stop next time I'm in town! read more

This is a cute establishment make sure to check when they are open, believe they are closed Monday-Wednesday. I ordered an avocado and egg waffle, I loved the rock salt on it and the creamy generous amount of avocado, I just didn't like the mochi in the waffle. It's not my thing but I'm glad I tried it. Waffles were made to order. The boy ordered a plain waffle with sugar on top no other toppings he really liked it. read more

I ordered the Brie and Prosciutto Waffle and it was delicious!! Savory and slight sweetness from the waffle were a great combination. Also ordered a Thai Tea that was also delicious. Staff could of been a bit more welcoming but the place was still great read more

My husband stopped by to get a cup of coffee after dinner while calling around town. It was not to see a place that was still open. The coffee tasted ok. The service was ok. I noticed that they sell ice cream and sweets. Made a mental note to come back and try it. The ambiance is nice with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

What a terrible place to visit. I rarely leave negative reviews, but our visit to Waffleton was incredibly disappointing. From the moment we walked in, the man at the register ignored us completely - no greeting, no acknowledgment. When we tried to ask a couple of simple questions about the menu, especially regarding the gluten-free options (which were very important to us due to my 4-year-old daughter's severe gluten allergy), he responded by just pointing at the menu in a condescending way, without saying a word. He seemed distracted and in an awful mood - one that my family and I did not deserve. We chose Waffleton specifically because they offer gluten-free waffles, which seemed like a great option for our family. But the lack of basic courtesy and the dismissive attitude made us feel completely unwelcome. For a place that caters to dietary needs, you'd expect at least a bit of empathy or understanding. We ended up leaving without ordering. It's really unfortunate, because we were excited to try the food - but we won't be returning. If you value basic decency, I would suggest that you avoid this place as well. Edit: I read other reviews and it seems like customer service is their main problem. Several other reviews also shared that the man and woman that work the place have been incredibly rude on multiple occasions even when it's not warranted. A trend of disrespect, attitude, and condescending behavior is clearly evident. If you are the owner and are reading this, please consider all of these reviews stating the same thing about your attitude, as well as your employee, and make the necessary changes. If your response will be one that also matches the condescending tone of your other replies, please spare me. I've had enough of this place's attitude. Learn to be accountable and recognize that when one owns a business, one must smile sometimes and just simply say "I'm sorry". PS: before there is an excuse, no there were no lines - we were the only ones there. We asked "are the toppings also gluten free, or which ones are" which I believe is a reasonable question to ask, especially when you sell GLUTEN FREE WAFFLES. read more

This place had so many delightful surprises. One stop shop for sweet or savory kids or adult adults. We had the American classic grilled cheese with tomato bisque soup. Oh my goodness best grilled cheese I've ever had! We learned from one of the chefs that they actually take a lot of care with what ingredients they select to make all of their creations. Don't miss stopping in and trying something from their menu! read more

Amazing food and service! Cute vibes will be returning with the kids matcha latte, and hot chocolate were sooooooo good read more

Waffle was pretty decent and was made out of mochi! It's a cute little shop and the service was amazing. Staff was really friendly and accommodating and even gave us some pup cups (little ice cream cups) for our dogs! A cool place to try if you want a waffle. Overall 3.5 stars read more

Wow wow wow!!! Waffleton is AWESOME. My girlfriend and I visited Idyllwild this past weekend and had such a wonderful time. The hikes, the mountains, the people, the vibe and the food! It's such a great, artistic, friendly mountain town. One of our favorite spots was Waffelton. We liked it so much we went there three times! We had the loose leaf tea and home made hot coco the first time. It was so good we went back the next evening for more beverages and tried the soup. It was AMAZING... a home made recipe all the way from Spain. Finally on the third day we went and tried a sweet waffle. So so so good. Paula brought this waffle machine all the way from Europe and it is worth it. Really dug the vibe, the food, the people, the dog. Highly recommend next time you are in Idy. Hidden gem! read more

Review is solely on customer service. My family and I were looking for a place to grab lunch and soup/sandwich sounded great! I was made to feel like my simple question was ruining their day(s). Decided we didn't want to support a really rude business that's uneducated about food. Dialogue: Me: "what kind of soup do you have today?" Employee1: "Tomato basil" Me: is it... (cutoff by employee1) Employee1: I said we have tomato basil soup. Me: Ok, I was going to ask if it's vegetarian or vegan. Employee1: No Me: Is there chicken stock? Employee1: No Me: So vegetarian? Employee1: No, there's butter. Me: Is there someone else I could ask? Employee2: *Annoyed* It's not vegan or vegetarian. We use butter. Me: Butter is fine - is there meat in it? Employee2: No *dirty look* it's not vegetarian or vegan. We left. read more

Amazing new spot in town . Delicious ! My favorites are savory waffles with Brie and prosciutto , and the manchego /sun dried tomato . The olive oil drizzle and salt are just enough to flavor it all so nicely and I love that the waffles are not the oversized , American , unhealthy vibes . Very European. My son loved the matcha waffles ! A lovely addition to this sweet town. read more

Service was very rude, passive aggressive comments. When I asked what coffee's they had they couldn't list what items they had and laughed. When I said I wanted a large drink they also laughed saying they only had one size. Very terrible experience, wouldn't recommend. read more

Tasty quality waffles made from scratch. Very friendly service, great vibe. We'll be back.

This place is a perfect addition to Idyllwild. Sweet and savory waffles with combinations of toppings I'll be thinking of long after we are gone. Owner and staff were so kind my kid was in heaven having a chocolate drizzled waffle with Oreo crumbles. You can eat inside , it's like a retro vibe with a modern twist. We will be back for sure! read more

wow. Just wow. This was one of the most culinary creative places I've been to. (and I've worked at ALOT of nice restaurants) its not a breakfast place per say, and the waffles are presented in a street style fashion. We had the apple and blue cheese waffle and this might have been the best dish I've tried all year. Great balance between savory and sweet, the waffle was nice and crispy but soft and warm when you cut into it. If they had this place near the Los Angeles beach cities, I'd be here everyday!! 10/10 read more

Super cute spot in town to grab a bite of food. All the waffles are super tasty and filling. We tried the brie and prosciutto, manchego cheese and sun dried tomatoes which are the mochi waffles. Both so yummy! We also tried a sweet Belgian waffle with Nutella, banana, and oreos which was also great. We had a wonderful experience with the costumer service as well! Definitely would come back when we're in town again!! read more

Incredible, I got their waffle tray for a little birthday shindig a few months ago. I had ordered it with strawberries and bananas, however next time I'm definitely going to order it with some ice cream. I also got some thai tea too YUM! These were also good next day so it was a perfect snack on the way home down the hill. HIGHLY recommend if you're craving some savory waffles! read more

the waffles and the coffee are OUTSTANDING! And the owner is the sweetest. she's always testing new creations. they have awesome live music too. my favorite place in Idyllwild. read more

Loved the mochi waffle! and if the customer service fit the Idy vibe, it would have hands down been a 5 star. If you're from Idy or spent a lot of time in this awesome small community, it's the people that set this place a part from any mountain community in so cal. That was the one thing missing from here which is why I gave it the four stars. The owner was not very kind or inviting. There was no idy smile with good vibes when i walked in and when I asked what toppings she offered (granted i should have seen them) all she did was point at the menu. customer service screamed DTLA vibes when i just left the city to get away from that. Im hoping she reads this and it gets better because there is such potential here. read more

Great little dessert spot in town. Both sweet and savory options available! Highly recommend.

We happen to eat here not knowing it was the store's opening day! My wife and I shared the avocado/egg. It was so good I had to come back the next day! This time I had the avocado/egg all to myself and my wife had the brie/prosciutto. Will definitely eat here when we visit Idyllwild again read more

So good! We tried the avocado & egg and the brie & prosciutto waffles and they were both so delicious! Our daughter ordered the Nutella waffle which was a kid's dream with sprinkles on top. The waffles by themselves are amazing, crispy and sweet. The shop is nice and new with some small tables inside and large picnic tables outside. The owners were really kind and friendly too. We will definitely eat here again. Highly recommend! read more

Nice little dessert shop with good service. Get the mochi waffles. These were great with strawberries, Nutella, and whip cream. The mochi waffle with caramel and whip cream was also excellent. Mochi waffles were chewy as expected (these are of different consistency than Belgian waffles). Yum! read more

First time eating here. People are friendly and the menu has a good variety to choose from to eat. I ordered a plain waffle with raspberry topping. The waffle was more chewy than I'm used to and a little undersized. Please be more consistent in size if you are going to charge what you do for a waffle. read more

Clean. Nice lady served us. But..... I really really don't like cold waffles. Sad. I ended up eating the Brie off the top. My daughter just wished they would melt the Manchego cheese on hers. My husbands waffle was tiny and cold. I even broke my fork trying to cut mine. Being a local you want to see these places succeed. Hmmmm we will see. read more

Lox and Waffle? Who would have thought cream cheese, smoked salmon and capers on a mochi waffle base could stand in for a bagel?! Curiosity overcame skepticism and this thing was big and delicious. The mochi waffle is also gluten free, made with rice flower. Will definitely reorder the lox after trying the other flavor combos they offer. Go try it. read more

Counting the hours until I can non-awkwardly go back for another waffle. Delicious and perfectly sized and altogether terrific.

I can't eat gluten and was so excited to find a waffle I could eat with the Mochi Waffle and it did not disappoint. I was not prepared for no syrup available, but I'm Buddy the Elf so... I went with the whipped cream and it was delicious. Such a treat! read more

What a cool take on waffles! Topped with all sorts of gourmet things! Salmon and goat cheese with red onions and capers was super savory! Going to try all of the combinations. Just not all at once. read more

Great find in town. Sweet and savory waffles to die for. We ordered prosciutto and Brie, apple and blue cheese, and a special yummy sweet chocolate one for my granddaughter with Oreo crumbs. Will definitely be back. read more

(DO NOT GO HERE) Walked in and it wasn't the same place as before from a few months ago because we weren't ordering food the owner became a straight bitch and was sarcastic She just got real rude and just went and sat down and ignored us. I've been in a lot places where they been rude before and never have I ever written a single review on a place until now it was so bad. read more
