Waffle House — Restaurant in Colorado Springs

I visited the Waffle House on Fillmore recently, and while I didn’t expect much more than a quick breakfast fix, I left genuinely impressed — mostly because of the service. Our waiter was truly awesome. He greeted us right away with a smile, made sure our table was clean, and stayed attentive throughout the meal without ever feeling overbearing.

What really stood out was how he handled my iced coffee request. Waffle House doesn’t normally carry iced coffee (which I already knew going in), but he went out of his way to work something out for me. That kind of effort is rare in a fast-paced diner setting, and I really appreciated it. It wasn’t just the service — he made the whole experience feel more personal.

The food was exactly what I was craving: simple, hot, and cooked just right. I got the All-Star Special with a waffle, scrambled eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns. Everything came out fresh and fast — the waffle had that perfect soft center and crispy edge, and the hashbrowns had just the right golden crisp.

As far as the restaurant itself, the atmosphere was what you’d expect from a Waffle House — small, busy, and a bit chaotic, but that’s part of the charm. I’ve read reviews where people complain about cleanliness or rude staff, but honestly, I didn’t experience any of that. The kitchen looked clean, the floors were maintained, and the staff seemed to work well as a team. You can tell they’ve got some regulars too — always a good sign.

If you’re looking for fine dining, this obviously isn’t the place. But if you want classic diner food at a good price, with surprisingly great service, this Fillmore Waffle House is worth the stop. I’ll definitely be back — and fingers crossed I get the same...

If you are not ready for a 5 star experience at Waffle House don’t come to this location because that’s exactly what you will get! VAL was amazing to say the least. I was shocked that my drink kept getting refilled, there were times where I didn’t know if this was really reality or if I was dreaming. My food came out so quick I was upset. Other Waffle Houses in TX have given me the expectation that it will take 30+ minutes minimum to get my order & to only expect 1 refill if that during my visit. Sadly I will never know these pleasure outside of Colorado as this Waffle House as well as VAL have spoiled me for life! Even as I wrote this review I am saddened when I visit a Waffle House in Plano, TX the experience wont be quite like it was with VAL. She was so polite when greeting me as I walked in. That threw me off right from the get go. I placed my order quick and I kid you not I would say maybe 5 minutes tops or less passed and I got all my food so shoutout to the cook as well she wasn’t playing games when it came to that grill. Had me 2 waffles, chicken patty melt w/ 2 orders of hash browns, pork chop & grits w/ 2 orders of hash browns. I almost feel embarrassed I didn’t take a pic as now people won’t believe me. Anyways yeah come here if you want your belly’s full and want great service! Also it want a dull moment here I witnessed a low rider hit his switches outside & a u-haul do a hit and run on the poor cooks Trailblazer so there was that. Thank you for your service VAL I hope Waffle House gives...

I've ate at WaffleHouse on multiple occasions in multiple locations over the years. Upon visiting this particular location (1st time since the new facelift) my wife accompanied me during my business deliveries. On our way home after 9pm, we stopped in to eat. Staff was well managed and we were waited on immediately. When our order came, my hash browns, I felt were spot on. My wife's however were burnt to the point they were noticeably black n crisp to shatter upon putting a fork to it. My eggs (over easy) were barely even cooked. Egg whites were white kinda, but more under done that they were Very runny that it looked like water in my plate that the egg whites were still raw. Also, my wife's bacon was Burnt Crisp black burnt. When another order was brought, they were 100% perfect!! When I complained about my wife's hash browns being burnt, they were replaced with a new order. Still Overdone n black burnt edges. The cook I feel failed any cooking school that he may have ever attended or was self taught. The 2 stars that I posted for a rating are directed more at our waitress. There was only 5 tables seated, including ours. Over staffed with 6 staff which...
