Waffle House [censored] you

Worst place to work at. Manager Mikell Robinson doesn't give a rats [censored] about his restaurant or his employees. Place is dirty as [censored]. Mild and mildew under the place where you wash the dishes, the tea is never made right, big flakey floaties on top. Customer always complaining how sour it is. Don't ever eat the ham... Well the city kind if it's green and don't have a smell to it, it's ok. He has the woman bust there [censored] while he sits in his office and watches porn and other videos. Paychecks are wrong half the time. And if you do extra work so that it looks better in there, he doesn't care. Place is a joke. Oh yeah and he blocks his co-workers which is [censored].

Recommendation: This is the waffle house on Cherry blossom way by pilot

Waffle House Not a Rockstar

I guess I’m spoiled being from Atlanta and having a 20 year grill master at my local WH.

August 19, 2023, Unit # 1452 Harrisburg, PA.

First, the counter was a complete, disgusting mess when I sat down. Eventually, my waitress “Cream” did wipe it down and took my order. I ordered one scrambled egg with cheese, bacon well done, hash browns well done and white toast. Pretty simple straight up order. BTW, it was not busy for a typical Saturday morning.

Waitress brings the bacon first, half is cooked, the other half of each piece is uncooked curled fat. She looks at my face, hands it back to the grill guy. He puts the bacon back on the grill, burns them more, but doesn’t even attempt to flatten out the curled up fat. Wise decision would just give me another order, cooked properly, Nope. The hash brown were burnt crisp. After requesting my toast, it shows up, cold, butter unmelted. I barely ate my meal. Waitress never asked me my thoughts, just removed the untouched bacon and cold toast. Also, there was a Rockstar grill operator cooking, but he clearly needs to be retested or he just doesn’t care about what he is serving the customers. I guess I’ll reevaluate eating at a WH north of the Mason Dixon line.

Recommendation: IHOP is walking distance up the street.

Waffle House customer service

Is Waffle House Legit?

Waffle House earns a trustworthiness rating of 91%

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds Waffle House to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 4% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, Waffle House is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with Waffle House, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

We found clear and detailed contact information for Waffle House. The company provides a physical address, 2 phone numbers, and 2 emails, as well as 5 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.

The age of Waffle House's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

Wafflehouse.com has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Wafflehouse.com has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

We looked up Waffle House and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • While Waffle House has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 4% of 659 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
  • Waffle House protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Waffle House. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

Waffle House Slippery floors

Store 1851. For three weeks now we have seen the floors behind the counter flooded and the staff can’t help but track it out to the dining floor. We go every Sunday and keep thinking it will be repaired. It’s dangerous for guests! PLEASE NOTE: the staff at this location is fantastic. A consistent and helpful crew. We like them all very much. This water issue is a management/owner problem that needs to be dealt with. We are told it’s broken equipment.

You need to escalate this issue immediately. Next time you're at the Waffle House, demand to speak directly to the manager or owner. Make it clear that this ongoing water problem is a serious safety hazard and must be fixed at once. Emphasize that while the staff is fantastic, they can't do their jobs properly if the management fails to address basic maintenance issues.

If the manager or owner doesn't take immediate action, take your concerns to corporate headquarters. Let them know that this negligence is endangering both customers and staff. Be firm and persistent until they resolve the problem. This is about safety and respect for both employees and patrons. Don't back down until the issue is fixed.

Waffle House Bad food. Bugs

We ate at the Waffle House off hwy 65 at exit 46 in TN. The hash browns were too done, the bacon was black in places. My husband never got his waffle. We could see the cook and he over cooked the waffle someone else got. Then as I was paying, I look behind the waitress to the cooking counter and saw a big bug crawling around! That made me sick. The date and time was. 12/29/23 @ 3:30 pm on Friday afternoon. The time before we ate there it was great. But it was around 12 noon.

Desired outcome: Have an inspection of this Waffle House and correct the issue of the bugs. So unsanitary. And teach the cook how to cook food.

Waffle House Refused service

#2294

On 10/31/2024, I walked in to #2294 and sat down. Only second's later the waitress, Lailani, began yelling and shouting at the Cook, Tom. She was on the verge of screaming. She went on and on. Not stopping for a moment. After a short time I spoke up and said 'you can't do this in front of customers.' After that she completely ignored me, refused service. And she continued to yell and shout, on and on.

It was the Cook who took my order. He told her several times to take my order. She refused. After he took my order, he told her several times to write up a check/ticket. She refused. She continued her yelling and shouting. Finally I told the Cook to make the meal to go.

She didn't charge me. Still, no check for records. Offered no apology, only cutting sarcasm. The Cook and waitress were the only employees there.

Yesterday I went in and there she was.

Waffle House Service

I have been to the Waffle House on Carmichael Road in Montgomery, Alabama twice and still have not gotten to eat there. The first time we waited 20 minutes and still had not been served or ask what we wanted. Second time we waited 10 minutes for a table to be cleared so we could sit down. When we finally got seated the cook loudly told the server not to take any more orders. We then got up and left.
