The food here was so good we went in on a Thursday morning and the servers all seemed annoyed we were even there though. Our girl didn't really come check on us and there was a 15 minute gap between us receiving our actual plates. But the food tasted good.

The place was SUPER busy on a Sunday, 9am. Service however, was terrific: attentive and friendly. Our coffee cups were refilled upon the last sip, our requests (milk instead of half & half) easily filled, food arrived in light speed, and prices are great. I had the California Eggs Benedict, which replace the meat with avocado. The breakfast burritos, omelette, and club sandwich were also excellent!

this. was. the. best. breakfast. burrito. i've. ever. consumed. in. my. entire. life. i'm not a breakfast person nor was i feeling hungry even during brunch. but we were visiting our state college friend and he suggested coming here with the group. it was a really great price too for the meal. ~$11-12 i believe. even the pico de gallo was inhaled by me LOL. don't flame me but i would dip it in maple syrup and then add hot sauce to it. seriously, don't yuck my yum and don't knock it until you try it!! also, i understand why their home style potatoes/fries are famous for a reason. TOOOO GOOOD. the ambiance was lovely and cozy. they have booths and a few tables to offer :)) the staff is really friendly and patient too. i kept asking for a lot like hot sauce, coffee creamer, etc. they close at 2:00pm and we stayed until 2:15.. felt bad but that's on us for arriving late too. they let us finish our meal and pay out. i almost forgot my to-go box and one of the staff members brought it to me :') thank you, again ! if you're a visitor, freshmen of state college, or want to try something and don't really go out (or in the area/a student), really come check this out. it's a 5-10mins walk from the nearest parking. worth it.

For the restaurant being primarily about waffles, the waffles were very average. Nothing special, and had little flavor. The rest of the food was great!

Good breakfast place. Very reasonable food was good atmosphere and good vibes. My breakfast of eggs and pancake, with a coffee cost like 10 bucks.

Love the breakfast at this place. I always end up getting the amazing thick sliced bacon and the potatoes and some kind of eggs. Hard to beat. The only drawback is if you go on the weekend be prepared to wait for 30 minutes to an hour plus.

The Waffle Shop is the absolute best breakfast in town. The lines may be long, especially on football weekends, but it is worth the wait! And the East College Avenue one now accepts credit cards! The food is consistently perfect - when you ask for crispy bacon or your eggs a certain way, they never disappoint. The main reason I'm writing this review, however, is that one of the best parts of the Waffle Shop experience is the staff. Everyone is friendly and happy -- even on the busiest early-mornings-never-get-a-break type of day there -- but one staff member in particular, Rayn, goes above and beyond. My family chooses to go to the East College Ave spot because of Rayn. Rayn treated my kids like she was their favorite Aunt and even though she looked like she had over a dozen tables going on at once, she never kept us waiting (or anyone else), anticipated every need, and provided the friendliest, warmest service we've ever experienced in a State College Restaurant - and we seriously have had wonderful experiences all over town. Hope you get to go visit the Waffle Shop - and say hi to Rayn for us!
