First of all, the absolute disrespect for the ingredients is an abomination. Secondly, the flavor profile was all over the place, vanilla cookie flavored "biscuit" with overly salted "gravy" was a disgusting combination. We ate a tiny amount of this "food" and returned the rest to the filthy counter where nobody even cared enough to ask why we were returning 90% of the food we paid for. Terrible read more

This place is cool! Like this borderline dessert in some cases lol. She had the chorizo waffle. Me- The sweet waffle. We crushed both. I had the hot chocolate which is great. She had iced coffee and liked. Definitely should check this place out read more

We went 10 miles out of our way to try Capitol Waffle and it did not disappoint. We all had the Country Breakfast Waffle for entrees and learned that everything in life is better with sausage gravy on top. The secret star of the show was the hash brown tater tot side waffle. That's a reason to come by all by itself. The service was friendly and helpful and the restaurant was clean and warm. read more

Holy cow. What a waffle! My friends and I stopped by after a night out and my gosh, this revived us. They have so many options for you to pick from and can even accommodate allergies of all kinds! The seating is first come first serve so be aware if with a large group! read more

Came randomly with my son, he actually picked the place. We were greeted immediately and sat. Our server was very friendly and patient, my son has a tendency to ask a million questions and he answered them all enthusiastically. My son got a build your own waffle (half size) with strawberry, banana, blueberry, whip cream and some chocolate sauce, and a side of chicken tenders. He loved the waffle and they didn't short on the toppings, he also said those were the best chicken tenders ever. I ordered a house coffee, bacon egg and cheese taco and a chorizo egg taco and added arugula, both were very good. My son even asked to talk to the cook, which he actually came out and entertained him (we were the only ones in at the time since it was a random time during the day). We will definitely be going back. read more

Well happened to be in the area after doing some medical stuff and was starving. Well after a little Yelp Reviewing found this little gem. First it's off to the side in this strip mall area. To the left of Golds Gym and next to a Miracle Ear place. So it took a second to find it via Waze. But don't be discouraged. It's a cute little joint. You go to the counter and get menus and then choose your own seats. Once you know what you want, go to the counter to order. However, food was brought to our table. Well as for the meal. There were several items I kinda wanted but both the wifey and I decided on the 1/2 Country Waffle. This had a 1/2 waffle covered with a couple scrambled eggs and sausage gravy. It was very good. Both the wifey and I really liked it. The waffle had a wonderful flavor as so did the sausage gravy. The combination really worked together. We also had two sweet teas. Considering the total came to about $26, before tip, I think the portions were just about right. As for the service: I think the two young ladies working did very well. Treated us wonderfully and the meals came to the table quickly. So give this joint a try - I don't think you'll be disappointed. I'm sure we will be back next time in the area. read more

Met a girlfriend here for Saturday brunch about 2 weeks ago. The gps had a tough time pinpointing the location for us both but we found it nestled in the small strip to the left of Gold gym. We walked in grabbed some menus off the counter and were told to pick a spot to sit. So we did but when none of the young ladies behind the counter came over to take our order, we discovered you're to order at the counter. I got the chicken Philly waffle. My friend ordered the spicy chicken waffle. They arrived pretty quickly. My girlfriend enjoyed hers, said it was definitely on the spicy side bc of the sriracha and jalapeños. I enjoyed mine as well but did feel that the queso was very bland and I would have the dried onion topping removed if ordered again. Overall it was a nice chill spot to chat with a friend for a couple of hours. Would definitely want to try one of the sweeter options in the future. read more

Review is off one visit. Very laid back spot with a few tables for dining in. Ordering was easy and the staff was nice. They do have mimosas which were pretty good. Nice variety of options and we were served pretty quickly. Would return to try something else! read more

The food is delicious and staff very nice! The food selection is very immense. The atmosphere is quaint.

5 starts for food. 5 stars for value. 1 star for service. We got there around 12:15 pm and the tables were all taken. We were added to a waitlist, but then had to ask if we could sit at a table that opened up (we were the only ones on the waitlist). We sat for a bit before realizing we needed to order at the counter. We weren't told that when we chatted with the counter. I went in to order and stood by for 10 minutes while I was ignored by the staff who made mimosas and stood around. The tall white dude who seemed to be owner/manager effusively welcomed a group that walked in and asked if they'd been there before and ignored me the whole time. I finally was able to place an order. The food was pretty good and 3 breakfast tacos, a full chicken waffle and two coffees ran us $25 which felt like good value. Still unsure of whether we will return because of the service, or if we need to try a different location read more

Capitol Waffle Shop - Chicken waffle and Chorizo Egg & Cheese Breakfast Taco - Waffles Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Really solid option for breakfast/lunch. It has a bit of a coffee shop/diner vibe. The staff were all very friendly and helpful; one guy was obviously new and still in training, but the lady training him was on top of things. I ordered the Country Breakfast Waffle, my wife ordered two of the $2 breakfast tacos and a pineapple mimosa. The portions were huge, especially for the prices. The taste was good, but not hugely flavorful. Best bang for your buck is definitely those tacos! Bottom line? The prices are great, the service was fast and friendly, and while it didn't "wow" me, the food was pretty good. I don't know that I would go out of my way to visit again, but if I was in the area, I would definitely consider it! read more

Love this place ! The waffles are fluffy and freshly made. You can design your own waffles with added toppings. Had banana, strawberries and blueberries on the one I ordered. Was so delicious. Our waitress was super friendly and the owner came over to our table to talk to us to see how we liked our waffles. Cannot wait to go back there again !! Louise read more

I ordered a Fraffle (apple fritter waffle) and Hashbrown waffle with crispy onions. Though everything was tasty, I expected a full portion size as it was my first time trying this restaurant. Instead, it was 1 quarter of each item and I had to reheat the Fraffle. Plus using Grub Hub, basically doubled the cost. I think next time, I will go in person to get a decent portion of food. read more

Really enjoyed this place! Great prices and the food was delicious. Staff were very friendly. I loved the casual laid back vibe. You order at the register but they bring the food out to you. We fell in love with the scrambled egg bowls. There's an option to build your own. I chose the arboretum bowl and added chorizo. So yummy! We tried a plain waffle and the batter was really good. It wasn't too sweet or cakey. Overall, we loved it and will be coming back. read more

First time going here and it was a pretty great experience, the workers were friendly and very helpful. i had the chicken & waffles and it came with captain crunch on top and powdered sugar which i got on the side, its a cute quiet shop and my overall experience was great, i didnt LOVE the iced vanilla coffee but everything else was amazing. read more

I ordered the 1/2 Egg, Queso and Chorizo Waffle. I loved all the flavors and I'm a sucker for chorizo on any menu. I just wish that the waffle was a bit crispier before adding on the toppings since the waffle was soggy near the end. I also ordered an iced americano which was fantastic with and without added creamer. The food came quick and there was a fun vibe in the diner. read more

We were stopping in Richmond on our way to the beach and found this place for breakfast on Yelp. It really lives up to the hype both for food and service. Austin greeted us and listened even over the loud music to hear that I needed coffee which slipped my husband's mind when he went to order. The food was epic, especially the liege waffle. It's a very happy place to eat with seemingly upbeat staff and groovy music. Would highly recommend the country chicken waffle for a sweet and savory experience. read more

Love this place! So creative with their menu. Nice decorations with lots of humors. Definitely worth a visit!

Had 5 meals all were happy. Ibhad the chorizo and itcwas well done. Was not expecting much and am not a waffle fan but this was a hit. The vanilla shake was not worth it but everything else was really good. I will look forward to my next trip. read more

In a previous review I gave this restaurant four stars. But I feel I need to share a recent experience to warn other diners you must finish eating your before two p.m, or you will be asked to leave The Sunday after Thanksgiving my husband and I went to this capital Waffle Shop for lunch. Our food wasn't served to us until one forty five and the waitress actually said We close at two do you want a to go box. How rude. You will take our money and then ask us to leave. What about customer service and appreciation and being treated like a human being. Do business owners and their employees forget that without customers they would not have jobs. We will never go back again. read more

Came back for another waffle! The waffles here are delectable and full of flavor! They are huge!! So bring your appetite or get ready to share one! I loved the country breakfast waffle the first time I was here, but wanted to try something sweet rather than savory. The Tear Jerker waffle hit the spot! Mounds of berries, and whipped cream compliment the sturdy, yet fluffy waffle and it doesn't cave in with all those toppings! I had mine sans the sour patch kids, or you could get the sugary sweet and sour candy on the side. These waffles are a notch above any other waffles around! Not only is the menu full of creative concoctions for your waffle pleasure, but you can also build your own! The beverage menu is extensive, coffees, teas, juices, refreshers, and mimosas! If you're watching the calories, they have breakfast bowls and other "low carb" options, but I say, forget that! Have a cheat day! It's totally worth more time at the gym for every bite!! The service is superb! You will receive your "waffle weaponry", the cutlery to dig into your massive waffle! Truly it is a battle to finish the whole thing! "To the victor belongs the spoils!" And you will be "spoiled" here with the friendly service and cool atmosphere! The price point is just right for the quality and quantity of your meal! I promise once you have waffles here, no other "house" will compare! Waffles for life! Rock on! read more

I learned about Capital Waffle Shop through a Valpak mailing. I pretty much ignored it the best I could, but today I couldn't seem to get off the couch and all I could think about was a waffle. Then a friend texted me and asked me if I'd done anything fun today and somehow that turned in to meeting at Capital Waffle Shop in a small place tucked between a hearing aid store and a tattoo shop in a small section of an ever changing strip mall. The restaurant closes at 2:00 p.m. and there was one or two other people there when I arrived about 1:20. The very friendly waitress greeted me and gave me a table while I waited for my friend. She was very personable and I really enjoyed talking with her about how she came to VA and plans she was making. The menu has many different varieties of waffle combinations. The prices are very reasonable. My friend and I both decided to order the chicken and waffles with a Cap'n Crunch powder!! It was $5 for a half order or $8.99 for a full order. After much deliberation, we both went for the full order thinking we would take at least part of the chicken home. Well, nothing made it home. The combination, waffle/chicken tenders/Cap'n Crunch was not easy to put down, so we ate it all and decided we weren't going to eat anything else for the rest of the day hahaha! There's another Capital Waffle Shop in downtown Richmond and also in a couple other cities in VA. Definitely a home run! read more

First time coming here. Was intrigued by the waffles on the menu. I ordered hash browns and they were cooked like a waffle, it was not cooked, tasted like potatoes was raw. The waffle was not done. The friend with me said the sausage gravy was delicious but the waffle was pasty and not done and it was sticky. Probably won't be coming back to this place. read more

Chorizo and egg waffle covering in queso what more needs to be said! So glad we stopped at this place. Yum! And gluten free options

The food was good but I'm not a waffle connoisseur. They charge extra for a full waffle so I don't think it's worth the money but it tasted good. We went there because they offer gluten free options, which is great. But the place was a bit dirty, the server we had clearly didn't want to be there, he was slow, looked tired (or stoned) didn't pay attention, his clothes were dirty too (food residue) and at one point he wiped his nose with the palm of his hand (no, not the back of his hand, the inside) but didn't wash them after. It felt like we were inconveniencing him. The staff share restrooms with customers, which is totally fine, except it's a small place so when one of the servers told the other one that he was going to the restroom, the whole place heard it. He disappeared for 5 minutes so obviously it was a no. 2, which is totally natural but I don't really want to know when the servers take a dump. Also, I would recommend that the long haired staff ties up their hair working around food / in the kitchen. Most places would require a hair net. Also, a lot is served in take out cups / plates, which is really wasteful and not sustainable. read more

I've been to Capital Waffle Shop a few times. I usually find them reasonably fast and friendly. I like the food well enough - though I admittedly get more excited about it than I get about the actual flavors - the sharp flavors like sun dried tomatoes are usually a bit over used and the rest is pretty bland - at least by comparison, so it doesn't balance well. I can honestly say that I've never left thinking, "That was amazing!" Again - I just get really excited about waffles and with them waffle pressing other foods. I do not like the switch to scan and order. I'm not fan of it in general, but sometimes it's not too bad. Here's why I left feeling all the bitterness today: 1- This scan and purchase does not offer fast headings so that you can easily get to the section of the menu that you want. 2- The menu items are not all grouped with like items, so you really have to read through everything to find what you want. 3- It's incomplete- it does not include water, there is no place to make a note for something that may be important to your order, and some order options have not been added. 4- Right here is the biggest problem: Orders do not arrive in the order received or with other orders at the table. At my table were 2 people who made two separate orders. My friend's order was simpler and arrived first- not a big deal if mine would arrive soon after, but mine arrived after my friend ate their entire order. My friend offered to wait, but if they had, their order would have been an ice cube by the time mine came. People don't come to a restaurant TOGETHER to watch each other eat separately. If we had been waited on, this would have been far less likely to happen, but in truth, that is the kind of thing that should really be on the radar of the people making and serving the food. I am unlikely to go back again. Capital Waffle Shop stays in the okay grey area. There are many options in the area where a tastier Waffle can be had, with full service, and where you can eat at the same time as the folks at your table. read more

Great waffles. The only lackluster thing about this place is the self serve warm pitcher of water. I would order from here again, but get it to go. read more
