    Tasty desserts
    Kevin P.

    A bit of small town, with some Very fun big town items. Stopped by here en route to picking my mom up from NorCal and thought this place seemed like a nice hometown feeling place, and I was right. Super hospitable staff, very Americana guests (farmers, cowboy looking folk), and a nostalgia of Christianity sprinkled around. And it was very nice. The Waffle Spot, which is only open for breakfast and lunch, has your staple of items waffles (of course), sandwiches and chiliquilles this Spot has fancy takes on hometown staples. After a cup of what I would call the world's best cup of coffee, we dug into the lunch. After a filling meal I felt satisfied and marked my yelp to eat back here on the way back down to LA. If you're in the area and are looking for a great breakfast and a bit of Americana then stop by the Waffle Spot for a bit of fried goodness and something new for lunch. Enjoy!

    First time here. I kind of expected better. I ordered a burger. It was good. I did not like the French fries. They weren't completely cooked. I don't like mushy fries. Hubby got a chili verde omelette. He said it was "ok". The waitress was not very attentive. Only have Coke products . I did like that they give you a carafe of coffee so you don't have to ask for refills all the time! I think it was probably a cute place at one time. Could use an overhaul. I'm willing to try again.

    The best waffle I've ever had, but you'd expect it from a place called waffle spot. I had the waffle with fresh strawberries. I asked because the picture had the glazed type, which typically is too sweet. They did not include the glaze. The waffle had a nice flavor and bite to them. I know where to go next time I'm up in the area. Please bring waffle spot down to my town.

    Friendly staff and good food. Great reward after running a 5k run. Waffles were delicious.

    This place is amazing! The servers were all very kind and got us seated and served quickly even though they were busy. My wife loved the chicken wrap and the peanut butter banana waffles were a great recommendation. When you walk in it gives an old diner and grandmas kitchen combined vibe to make for a very homey atmosphere.

    Our delicious breakfasts. Strawberry Waffle Combo, and Peanut Butter Banana Waffle Combo. YUM YUM YUM!

    Bf and I wanted some breakfast. We've never been to this establishment before, so we decided to go. I had just gotten off a graveyard shift, so I was pretty much a zombie when I came in. That didn't stop me from devouring the amazing strawberry waffles that I had! The only drawback was that there was a bit too much strawberry syrup on the waffles. My bf however, didn't have any complaints. He loved his peanut butter banana waffles. He also loved that his fried egg was fried right. We both had the combos with our waffles, which includes eggs however you'd like, along with bacon or sausage for a meat. Overall, the food was delicious and tasty. The restaurant itself is cozy, it felt like I was dining in someone's cute kitchen/dining room with a homey set up. The service was also great-the waiter was fast and friendly. I didn't get her name, but she made the whole experience pleasant.

    The server was very nice and helpful, we were first timers. Food was fresh and hot. A classic style diner with some Latin fusion. We had Chilequiles and the no meat platter (potatoes, eggs, and waffle). The Chilequiles was not spicy to me. The flavors were really good.

    Biscuits and Gravy with Bacon

    Was looking for a sit down breakfast spot on my way over to Mono Hot Springs Resort for the…read moreMemorial Day Weekend & so glad I found this gem of a cafe. Place had a fun farm theme, from the exterior red barn style architecture, to the barn doors between the dining area and booths, and the all American decor. It was very packed for a Friday morning but we were able to get seated within a few minutes and our server had great hospitality. And when I say... the portions here are GENEROUS - believe me! I couldn't believe how much food you get for your order, and the best part is, every bite hit. I decided to veer out of what I typically get for breakfast and did a lil sweet and savory moment and got the stuffed French toast with a sweet cream cheese filling and strawberry topping, and it came with 2 eggs of your choice, potato of choice, and either bacon or sausage. Bacon had the perfect amount of crisp, I asked for my hash browns extra crispy and they hit it on the nose. My partner got a bacon cheese burger. Bun was toasted, patty was flavorful, bacon was bussin, and he said they don't seem to skimp out at all on the fries! Price was very very reasonable for the portions, about $45 for this- my partner is from the Bay Area and so he's used to this quality of food and portions to be $$$$$$ and he even said this was such a deal! Family friendly place for sure, employees are super attentive, and left satisfied with the meal and service. If you're in town, or even passing through, this is the place to check out for breakfast.

    I ordered and paid ahead for a club sandwich. When I arrived to pick it up, I walked past the line…read moreof guests waiting to be seated , since my order was already paid for, that seemed reasonable. I stood patiently, fully understanding how busy the restaurant was. However, as I waited, the hostess continued to call up other guests (four separate times) without any acknowledgment of my presence. We even made eye contact more than once, yet there was no greeting, smile, or indication that she noticed I was waiting. This happened with two different hostesses. Eventually, my fiancé stepped forward near the register, but the hostess avoided eye contact entirely, staring at the screen instead. It wasn't until I finally spoke up and said I was there for a pickup that she acknowledged us -- and suddenly seemed to notice the 6'2" man standing right in front of her. Fifteen minutes went by before I received my food, and I had to initiate the interaction myself. I was not greeted, not engaged, and my food l, which had been ready for some time; was soggy by the time I got it. The ranch inside was even warm from sitting too long. This was my fiancé's first time at this establishment, and unfortunately, he's now hesitant to return if this is the tone and level of service to expect. I understand being busy, truly. But making direct eye contact with a customer and choosing not to acknowledge them, not even with a simple "Hi, we'll be right with you," is disappointing and leaves a poor impression. Overall, the experience was less than stellar. I would have appreciated better communication and fresher food, but hopefully this feedback helps improve future service for others.

    Hands down the BEST quality breakfast I've had in Fresno! Far exceeds Red Apple and even, despite…read moremenu differences, Yolked. Loved: 1) Before 9AM, NOT busy. Easy to get a table. Weekends may be different... 2) LOTS of parking and big spaces, unlike at other breakfast spots. Wide parking... 3) Food comes out HOT! Unlike red apple with their lukewarm potatoes/gravy. 4) Music is low volume background. You CAN actually have a conversation and enjoy folks if eating with others. 5) NO TVS!!! 6) Limited menu help ensures QUALITY and attention to detail. 7) Subtle complexity of flavors that REALLY differentiates from the crowd. 8) NOTHING is over salted. They let YOU season and determine YOUR level of preference/tolerance. 9) Service is excellent. 10) Friendly clientele.... I held a couple conversations with others in the restaurant. Very casual and laidback. 11) Humble decor that isn't overdone, busy or crowed. Not loved: 1) NOTHING stood out! They had a '2 for 1 special.' IF you've read my reviews you know that means that I sometimes order TWO entrees and I--ONE PERSON--polish them both off! GB3 AHOY! Ordered: 1) Water, no ice, no straw. 2) Biscuits/gravy ala carte. 3) Beni bowl, extra hollandaise sauce. Detail: 1) Food comes out HOT. With REAL steam coming off! Something overlooked and under appreciated at other restaurants. 2) Textures were intact and varied, even noticed with something like the a humble potato! 3) The beni bowl had both chorizo and bacon in it. Each was cooked perfectly and they didn't include all the GREASE from cooking both of those up! The poached eggs were fantastic and... 4) Both the hollandaise sauce and the country gravy had deep complexity and subtle interesting differences. Again, something missing from most breakfast places in Fresno. 5) Today, I ATE the actual biscuits that came with the gravy. Something I don't think I've done for YEARS! They tasted fresh, textured and were NOT SALTY like lessor quality options. 6) Pricing is so reasonable! Honestly, I've had this un-scratched breakfast ITCH for the longest time that never gets scratched. That all changed today! I'm refreshed getting plugged in with a restaurant that gets subtle differences, quality, textures and flavors with staff that IS actually connected to what comes out of a kitchen, what competes and stands out among similar options, how it TASTES! Thank you always Lord for both the resources and the opportunity to enjoy even a lessor meal in Fresno. But man, I appreciated this end of the spectrum. Keep up the good work, Branch! I notice everything! -G

    Road-trip rule #1: Never head to Disney without proper fuel…read more Road-trip rule #2: That fuel should be THESE breakfast bagel sandwiches. We stopped here before a weekend Disney run and wow... these bagel sandwiches had no business being this good. Fresh, hot, stacked like they were built by an architect, and somehow handed to us faster than I can say "we're gonna be late." The employees? Ridiculously nice. Like "are you sure this is real life?" nice. Courteous, friendly, and moving with the speed and precision of a NASCAR pit crew--yet every sandwich comes out looking like it's ready for its Instagram close-up. From the outside, it's a humble little hole-in-the-wall. Inside? Spotless. Cleaner than my kitchen on the one day a year I try to impress guests. You can tell this family doesn't just care about the food--they care about everything. Pride is baked into the walls... and the bagels. Bonus points for overhearing the owner casually chatting with locals about his shift ending and then coming back later that night to make more donuts and bagels like some kind of carb-loving superhero. Absolute legend. Every bite slapped. Every vibe checked. Top-notch spot. If you live nearby, go. If you're driving by, detour. If you don't stop here... honestly, that's on you.
