P.s.s. From the Future! - The owner and his son were having a playsword fight when he was seven years old - his son got tired and wanted to stop the following ensued and i get to share this heart-energizing story with you now - YOU! YES YOU!! YOU ARE THANKING ME FROM THE FUTURE! YOU ARE HERE NOW LEAVING 6 STAR REVIEWS: BEHOLD... Ok ok I did the thing where I got too excited and left a wack review I just spent the last I don't know how long with the owner (I didn't know he was the owner he was stocking the drink fridge and I was asking if he knew if this place was open - of course hoping against hope that he would) He HAS BEEN MAKING WAFFLES FOR THIRTEEN MOTHERFUDGING YEARS!!! YOU READ THAT RIGHT (sorry..) I REFUSE to have my waffles prepared by anybody with a SECONDS less than a whole goldurn bakers dozen years of experience making them - refuse... Anyways, ok the dough has hahahha has..lol ok lol..I'm like laughing as I type this the dough has freaking Imported Belgian Sugar Pearls lol!!.. - I have no idea what that is but it's a revelation just to relive just typing that sentence so I'll leave what actually experiencing it is like to your vivid imaginations - everything was fresh like he had some kind of magick garden or secret closet door to a strawberry Narnia (Strawbarnia..? Does that scan?) EVERYTHING WAS AS EXPERTLY PLACED AS IT WAS FLAVORED I CAN NOT OVERSTATE THIS ENOUGH OR USE EVEN MORE CAP CAPITALIZATION (NO CAP CAPITALIZATION!!

The letter is proof that a man having a little fun with his child can turn into a lifelong lesson given in love shared here with respect and admiration from one father to another all the love in the...
Read moreFirst time diners. New to Boise area. Found this place online and it sounded like an awesome concept. First, they offer gluten free waffles and to me - that was the best thing ever. Unfortunately, they are disgusting. Nothing like my gluten free waffles at home that taste like a normal waffle. These taste like they are made with apple cinnamon applesauce. The apple flavor was so overbearing. So much so that even Nutella couldn't fix it (yes, seriously, even Nutella!)
Location. They are convienently located off Capitol street. Plan for street parking (but it's Boise - so no worries on finding parking). They share a space with Boise Fry Co; one of my personal favorite places in Boise (also w/ gluten free options)!
Prices are okay. More than what we would have wanted but I felt they were okay. It was $55 for a family of 5. This is also a order at the counter - no table service kind of place. I always hate these. Felt a little rushed and flustered trying to read a menu off the wall and order for 3 kids. They have a large amount of seating that they share with Boise Fry Co. You have to get your own silverware, etc.
They have a lot of toppings to choose from. Examples: Nutella, strawberries, bananas, chocolate chips, strawberry sauce, eggs, bacon, whip, etc.. there's something for everyone. These waffles are MUCH smaller than your typical Belgium waffle you get at a restaurant. Keep that in mind. The bacon is very crispy and overdone (my personal favorite - but I know many don't like this). I imagine this is because they offer bacon as a topping as well and need it crispy to break up into little pieces. The eggs were cooked great and I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly our order was ready.
Overall, I don't think we'd return, simply because it wasn't amazing and my two teenagers left starving because the portion is so small. Nice...
Read moreThe food is amazing and the service is incredible. When your ordering, please be sure to ask about what makes these waffles special. The staff has a passionate, mouth-watering pitch nailed down.
If you can only try one waffle, try the "BOB Delux". It's their signature waffle, and the unique blend of high quality ingredients makes you really rethink what's possible with a waffle.
For your second visit, I recommend the chicken and waffles. This is hands down the best chicken and waffles I've ever eaten. They cook their chicken to perfection, with a nice crispy crust and juicy center. It's topped of with some of the best country gravy I've eaten.
The service really epitomizes what it is to be Boise local. The owner, Hector, always greats us with a great attitude and bends over backwards for his customers. My favorite example is when my wife was in the hospital after giving birth to our daughter. I called in a to-go order on the way to the hospital. Hector prepared it BEFORE opening time AND refused to let me pay for it. He has built up a staff that truly understands that a great restaurant is really a part of...
