Waffle House — Restaurant in Maryland

The longish, rectangular standalone building looks pretty much like most other Waffle House locations, but this one has abundant parking because it is a pad site in front of a strip mall. Major plus is they have a lot of booths, although you can also sit at the counter or at one of the smaller tables if you prefer.

The cook has a sense of style. Instead of just piling the toppings on, I noticed that he prepared the "all the way" hashbrowns with different areas for different toppings. That's probably only a big plus for food photography purposes but some folks may like it this way. Service was also pretty good. The server checked on the tables frequently and promptly fetched anything that we needed.

Incidentally, these "all the way" hashbrowns are a good value at Waffle House. For $5, you can get a hashbrowns platter with all their toppings, which is a substantial serving of food.

The only thing that bothered me was most of the time, the staff banter was about things they could do to get fired on the spot and about what would happened if they all quit the Waffle House job at the same time. Fortunately, they didn't pursue that fantasy...

100% disappointed. I'm from NJ and I always look forward to stopping at Waffle House when I drive south. I called just to place a to go order because I was driving through the state on a road trip with my dog. I wanted to ensure I could take my food to go. No one answered but the voicemail did say, We are open to take to go orders. When I arrived to the location there was a handwritten sign on the entrance door that said "No to go". I walked in to ask if that was the case and the young gentleman said he doesn't know the manager just put that up there you have to ask him. The manager Was standing there cleaning something and didn't even turn around but answered no to go orders. There were only two people sitting inside to eat they were not busy nor were they packed. I obviously didn't want to sit to eat because I didn't want to leave my dog in the car alone. I also saw plenty of to go containers stacked. Seems like they make up their own rules there, But I'm sure corporate did not make that rule or sign and if they did then they need to update...

Been here to this waffle house 4 times and I'm going to give it 4 stars just because the staff brings it up from a 3 to a 4. Their hash browns any way you like with LOADS of topping choices is he best part of the menu. Have to say the sausage gravy was cold and sticky and gloppy (thank gosh I ordered it on the side), but otherwise this hash brown choices are the bomb. Food is very reasonably priced and I think BREAKFAST is one of the best deals around. I will say that both times i went i was kind of disgusted that the menus were so sticky . UNBELIEVABLY sticky.Not sure why they never get cleaned. Wait staff and even the cooking staff were very friendly. Even the cooks seem to always ask if everything is ok with your food, which I found very refreshing and showed me they actually cared if they were doing a good job. I'm rating this place a 4 out of 5 stars not because it's a 4 star restaurant food wise but because it's decent food for what it is and the staff is accommodating and pleasant. Now if they would just clean those...
