Waffle Way — Restaurant in Maitama

Waffle way is located at 45 Gana St, Maitama 900271, Abuja. I visited on a sunday and their opening hours for Sunday’s are 12:00pm – 9:00pm. On the other days of the week, they open by 9:00am. They are open all through these hours to serve all day breakfast which is SUPER! because i could definitely eat breakfast all day! Scroll down to see the all new waffle experience i had. Ambience The restaurant ambiance is quite bright and vibrant. Its instantly puts you in a light mood. It gives the perfect eating out for breakfast vibe. It most definitely looks different from the old space. I love the popping orange color incorporated in the decor. The choice of chairs definitely utilizes the space very well. However, I’d say the chairs are quite low. The restaurant has a capacity of just a few people, probably like 20 at most but there’s more space outside which i think can be used for customers as well. The restaurant has a single bathroom for Convinence, nothing really fancy but definitely comes in handy.

The menu First off, i absolutely love a menu that is graphic. The restaurant menu has pictures of different breakfast meals, kids meals, burgers and drinks. They serve different waffle varieties, including pancakes and french toast. The menu pricing is quite affordable and absolutely worth every bite. You can have a delicious breakfast meal and a nice hot/cold drink for N5,000 or less. Waffles

Now let’s get down to the real juicy part of this review, WAFFLES! I don’t mean to sound dramatic but I’ve literally dreamt of these waffles and a part of me thought it has already been over hyped in my brain so it will end up basic but nahhh that didn’t happen. As a sweet girl, i instinctively went for a sweet waffle option as opposed to savory. However, i also got to try a bit of savory with the waffles and chicken. I ended up ordering chocolate waffles with vanilla ice cream, topped with oreo and strawberries & also the waffle combo meal.

Chocolate waffles with vanilla ice cream- NGN3,500 First off, the pancakes cost NGN3,500 and it comes with an option two free toppings and syrup choice. The additional ice cream costs NGN800 per scoop. While ordering this, what kept going through my mind was that it might be served thick and probably undone, maybe it might still be gooey inside because not many people know how to make chocolate waffles. When it was served, it looked pretty delicious and i hoped it would taste just as good. I absolutely LOVED IT! It wasn’t like anything i thought, it was perfect. it was warm, soft, perfectly done, not too sweet, and it had a little crisp at the edges which just blew my socks off. It was great and the topping/syrup paired perfectly with the chocolate waffles. I was so filled up i couldn’t finish it but i didn’t want to leave it because it was that good.

Waffle combo meal – NGN5,000 The waffle combo meal was a clash of sweet and savory. It was served with 2 pieces of delicious crispy fried chicken and maple syrup. The waffles were warm and tasty just like the chocolate waffles, i also loved that it was not too sweet at all. The chicken…well, it is hands down one of the best fried chicken i have ever had! It was very crispy and adequately seasoned, down to the bone. I really really enjoyed it!

Drinks We ordered the iced coffee frapp and iced americano. I must say, they sure know how to work their magic with coffee.

Iced coffee frapp – NGN2,500 The iced coffee frapp was the best coffee anything i have ever had in Abuja. My inner spirit literally screamed after my first sip. It was that good. It tasted like an Oreo milkshake but, coffee. If not that i waddled away like a very fat penguin because my stomach was so filled, i definitely would have ordered some of it to go.

I visited one of my favorite spot in Abuja ( @wafflewayng ) and here's a pen down review my loves. Few minutes after my arrival, although it was less busy, I had to go pick up the Menu myself & call them to clear up the table for me. (4/10) I took my time and couldn't decide easily on what to get. I wanted the full breakfast package but I am a light eater so I had the Classic pancake, with pistachio for desserts, and the Strawberry & Kiwi toppings with caramel syrup & cinnamon spread(6/10). For the weather, i had their Flu breaker tea (8/10)

The Pancake didn't taste like what I expected, it kept falling apart. Thank God for the Cinnamon or I wouldn't have had more than one. I am absolutely heartbroken and the waiter who attended to me almost got me angry by arguing that the pancake was supposed to break really.(he apologized later after speaking with the Chef though). The pistachio was every bit of dazzling and it keep me sane, the Kiwi is a baby too and although it became soaky and felt too slimy, it was a good go. The strawberries were just being themselves and I flowed with the vibe. The Caramel syrup was good and checked well. We all know Cinnamon helps a great deal and this time too, it prevented me from arguing with the waiter and just focus on a Cinnamon bath and oh well. The Flu Breaker tea was my highlight loves, I loved it so much, although I feel it was too pricey, I might still buy it for an even higher price. The outdoor sitting area seems beautiful & I'll try seat there when I return. Finally, their Restroom was clean and well kept ( @vallerieeats ✌🏾)

The waffle shop is a beautiful place. They have a great menu and good pricing. I was there for breakfast this morning with a friend but wasn’t impressed with the service. It took over 40 mins to get my get my order ready and when it came it was wrong. I couldn’t have it. My friend’s order was also mixed up but they fixed it. When we got there, we only met a couple who had already ordered and where attended to, but several other customers were served before us. We left the waffle shop unhappy even though they apologized.

I see only one big problem in an otherwise good restaurant - lack of a visible manager. I recommend the business gets one because this person would ensure strict compliance to best practices which would result to happy customers. I will be back to the waffle shop, and I hope I will have a better experience. I promise an honest and fair review on my...
