Absolutely perfect dining experience. Jazz was a fabulous server who had our food out fast and right. She is very attentive and friendly. Wish this Waffle House were near my home- I’d be here all the time!

Workers didn’t clean tables off after 10 min of people standing in line. As with every Waffle House, “seat yourself” was stated on the door. We sat down and didn’t get any service for even drinks after 25 min. Workers then yelled “you can’t sit at a dirty table” to the whole restaurant. And after halfway cleaning the table we were sitting at, workers proceeded to sit another group there. Bullshit on all sides and the most incompetent workers I’ve ever witnessed (even for Waffle House).

Couldn't get our simple order correct but watch out for the cook....Wow! Dawgs aren't biting today but she sure is! Ouch... Mr. Waiter next to our table sounded very polite and helpful.

I would leave 0 stars if I could. Staff gives no regards for incoming guests, completely ignored a party of two despite there being 6 workers. When I asked if we could order, I was directly told I cannot and must wait. Waited for 20 minutes and then walked out. Terrible customer service and staff doesn’t care. Tables were open and staff didn’t care to even say hello or get orders.

If you get mad at these great employees it’s just because they are overwhelmed in bar central on a Crazy Party night. I’ve been in here 3 times late at night. 2 times it was CRAZY and they were all working their butts off. Nice people from my experience. Tonight it’s slow and they are so kind and attentive. Food rating is good, just the same as all other Waffle Houses I’ve been to.

I went to this location at 11:23 at night, and sat at a table. No waitress ever came to take an order or help me. At 12 a.m. they sent a cop over to tell me that it was time to leave because doors close at 12. If they DON NOT WANT TO WAIT ON CUSTOMERS THEN TELL THEM SO WHEN THEY ARRIVE!!! NOT AFTER THEY'VE SAT FOR MORE THAN A HALF HOUR!!!

I don’t even like to eat at other restaurants because Waffle House sets the bar so high. A true representation of what America is all about. God bless America, the bulldogs, and Waffle House.

We entered as customers but left as friends. It’s no surprise with Waffle House - they’re uniformly clean and good - but this location offers a bit extra: a warm spirit, a joie de vivre. It is a place ordinary moments become memories and warrants a special spot at the top of your Athens list. Everyone from the host to the kitchen staff to the man who guards the door provided smiles and a kind word. We cannot wait to return.

The night Staff was pure evil, they opened the door on a girl while she was using the bathroom in the presence of CCPD officer who God knows why he allowed them to expose her like that. Disgusting service, they were bullies, it was horrible.
