Here's our experience. 1) Food: For breakfast, the menu is diverse from French toast to shrimp and grits. Each of us ordered a different dish and none of us were wowed by it. The French toast was overcooked and just not tasty for being encrusted with corn flakes. The shrimp and grits were runny. The avocado toast used old guacamole. Nothing stood out. 2) Drinks: We stuck with coffee, which was average. Cream and sugar are available on the tables. 3) Service: This is where they win. Our server was delightful and efficient, especially for serving a larger group. 4) Space: Its beautiful- historic and full of local art.

My only recommendation would be to offer a bit more on the plate. I was still a little hungry afterwards.

Dirty, wrong order, Really dirty. Expensive…read more I'm staying at local hotel and thought I'd grab something close. I was the only customer with 3 people on shift. Every surface was dirty. I found the cleanest appt at the bar (just some crumbs...nothing sticky) and gave it a shot. I hadn't been to WH in years, as they aren't available where I live. I remember my time in high school and college with fond memories of WH. Thankfully, the food is the same. Chicken sandwich, waffle, and hashbrowns scattered covered and smothered. Tasty! They forgot the extras on the hashbrowns. Bacon on the chicken sandwich was very poor quality, so I set it aside. What I ate was good. But, man, was this place dirty! $20 for a chicken sandwich and a waffle. This location will likely close soon, if it doesn't do something to improve.

We're new to Montgomery, and there are lots of breakfast joints to enjoy, and lots of Waffle Houses.

We were warmly greeted outside, as we approached the entrance (actually, as we were getting out of our car!). Then we were greeted as we came it. We were quickly shown to a table, which was clean, Lola quickly took our drink order and gave us time to choose from the menu. Prices were totally reasonable! I ordered a Texas Sausage and Egg Sandwich, and a side of hashbrowns chunked with diced ham and covered with country gravy, and hush puppies. Lola brought our order to our table lickety-split, and they were well-cooked, well-presented, well-seasoned, and well...they were just what my taste buds were pining for! Lola checked on us frequently and made us feel welcome and appreciated. We'll be back! Thank you, Lola!

Pretty meh. Bought a dozen dry donuts for $32, covered in gloopy glaze, 20 minutes after opening. How are these donuts so dry this early? The classic cheeseburger was disappointing, though they do get points for having a burger during breakfast hours. Fries were your typical frozen crinkle cut, but the hash browns were dense square bricks with tasty seasoning salt on it. The service was pretty fast, only took about 15-20 minutes for 4 sandwiches, fries, hashbrowns, and donuts and the feel of the restaurant overall was nice. The employees were also quite polite. read more

Sadly, they were out of kolaches when we arrived, but they had plenty of doughnut, breakfast burritos, and breakfast sandwiches. The chocolate glazed doughnut was excellent in size, taste, and texture. The breakfast burrito with sausage hit the spot too. It's sizeable and comes with a slightly sweet salsa. My entire order was $5.

The restaurant is extremely clean and decorated nicely. The server was quick on her feet and got our orders to us while still hot. I had two eggs, sausage, cheese grits, and a waffle. Eggs were cooked right but I wasn't a fan of the sausage because it was much thinner than I've ever seen in a sausage patty but it did have a ton of flavor. I almost never eat cheese grits as I prefer them regular. Unfortunately, they only offered cheese grits. The waffle was the star. It was huge and perfectly cooked. Decent place but we'll stick to our regular breakfast spot.

I really try to give honest review on everything I do. This morning it was slow. We got there and were seated quickly in a crowded area of seating. Really strange how they have the tables and benches arranged. The server was fast to take our drinks and did a good job overall. He told us what was selling good after I asked his opinion on what to eat. The waffle came out first. Unfortunately it was cold and hard but it was tasty. Food kind of trickled out from then. Biscuits and gravy was really odd with the much parsley on it. The gravy wasn't good to me. Was not my cup of tea. The Monster meat bowl was good. The grits were outstanding! It was cooked really good so that's a plus. I think this place has a lot of potential to be a really good breakfast spot. Hope to give another review in a month to see.

All other shops weren't opening until later after I would have already departed the area on my road trip to Louisiana. So I gave Donuts D Lite a try. And I'm glad I did! I highly recommend their vanilla cream filled donut, probably the star of the show. All of their other flavors are delicious as well, and they even threw in a few tasty donut holes with my order.
