We absolutely loved the Waffler! Kennan and Mindy were so wonderful to work with! They have the best customer service and the love they put into their products shows! The Waffler Theyhad the most unique waffles we've ever experienced! They were hot, fresh and made to order! The strawberry waffle and vanilla waffle were both delicious! There were chunks of fresh strawberries in the waffle and we opted for cinnamon and sugar on our vanilla waffle which made it even more delicious! Our dogs were absolutely in love with the woofles! They each had one and were begging for more! 5 paws all around! I love that they were in a individually wrapped package of 5 so you can save them if they are too big for your little pup. read more

It's a food truck, so you know they've got something special, right? And when they line up several food trucks, then it's just sensory overload, but whatever. The Waffler is preparing Euro street food in the form of Liege waffles (you may know them better as Belgian-style) and these fluffy, yeast-assisted, waffled discs are sensational platforms for multiple purposes. Whether you are wandering the streets of Brussels or Lenexa, the art of the Liege waffle is timeless. You can top them with fruit, spread on peanut butter or Nutella (my daughter's jam), or get your Southern funk on by dropping a piece of fried chicken on a stack. Liege style waffles are light enough to hold the crunch even after fruits are dropped on and sturdy enough to support chicken and gravy. Think of their culinary utility much the same as a tortilla, only with a different skill to the prep and a more robust flavor. This Waffler encounter had us sampling the basics, the vanilla waffle for me and my foodie sidekick with an orange-infused options. Both were delightful, dusted with powdered sugar, crisp, light, and classic. The vanilla went down so easily that I had to sample the Quiche Lorraine (or Quiche La-Poodle for you B-52's fans) and this eggy fave did not disappoint. Light, done perfectly on top and oh so savory. You're dropping $5 for a single waffle (or you can go $8 for a full chicken and waffles stack), so if you can pair the waffle with a great cup of coffee or fancypants coffee drink, you're in at $10-ish for a rather unique breakfast experience, and that's kind of the point. You want Eggos and Folgers? Yeah, I've been there, but thanks to options like The Waffler parked next to a Roasterie, I've stepped up my game. Pro tip: If you're wearing black, then beware the powdered sugar. The slightest breeze reminds you later of your choices. Since I did the waffle on my lap, I was bedazzled with sugar shrapnel on my black sweats. Kind of reminiscent of my high school geometry teacher, who was always chalk-dusted on the back of his blazer. Dude knew his angles, though. read more

Our subdivision a driveway Tuesday and The Waffler food truck was recommended. So we placed our order early and showed up at the time indicated on our order. Two things happened. First we had to stand in line to get to the truck. And second, our order wasn't prepared to pickup. Even though we pre-ordered, it did no good. So we waited some more for our order to be made. That's one star minus. And the other two was because of my order for chicken and waffles. Take a look at the picture below for an indication as to how bad it was. The pieces of waffle were hard, even after pouring syrup on them. And the very thin chicken strips were just that. Very thin. So there are two more stars. Overall, I would not recommend pre-ordering from this food truck as it doesn't mean anything, and the food is just edible, even during this pandemic. Go somewhere else. read more

The Waffler - My chicken and waffles order. - Food Trucks Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Just tried the waffle truck. So far it's only open on weekends, and the flavor a will vary from week to week. Today's flavor a were almond and the other cinnamon & sugar. The price of each waffle is $4.50 which I thought was kinda steep, I can understand $3.50 but the coffee was FREE. The flavored if the waffles are quite good, the coffee just is normal.... Could be a better flavored coffee. A few things if recommend for them, umbrellas, and a welcome area to sit. That sun is rough... And it's a parking lot - standing on your feet while you eat.. I'd recommend paying for a better tasting coffee and lower priced waffle. Overall, unique experience for a foodie. I'd recommend. Worth checking out. read more

Big Red Truck, oh how I love you so! Your waffles tickle my fancy, from savory to sweet their varieties go. Prices all under $10 seems quite fair, my $5 Apple Pie Liege Waffle left me with a few bites to spare. I was on my way to Bier Station to meet my mom for lunch and happened to spy a lonely food truck parked along the Trolley Track Trail with a plastic white picnic table set up in a self-serve parking lot area. There was one patron enjoying some type of waffle in a cardboard bowl and two "bros" manning the interior of the truck. The menu was simple, with two $5 varieties of simple Liege Waffles and then a slider special for $8 and chicken and waffles (I believe this is what is served in the cup apparatus) so, I quickly decided on the super sweet sounding Apple Pie Liege Waffle. The product overall was definitely delicious however, the texture was more sweet-bread other than waffle. What I mean is, the fluffy pockets that distinguish a good waffle from an 24/7 breakfast chain's floppy soppy barely passing Belgium impostors were not really apparent in my Apple Pie Liege Waffle, now perhaps I'm just not familiar with the "Liege" style of Waffle. What I can say for sure is if you see this Big Red Truck-STOP FOR WAFFLES! It's a fun experience and concept for a food truck and great to have in KC. Post Script. The crystallized sugar could literally be consumed as candy especially if you were one of those kids who ate the sugar cubes during the art projects :P read more

Oh my word - I love The Waffler. My husband and I were driving to get coffee last weekend when we spotted this beautiful red food truck. We immediately cut through three lanes of traffic, pulled a u-turn and parked. As we walked up, we met The Waffler himself and he welcomed us to his truck while explaining the current specials. This guy is legit. He seriously remembered everyone and greeted each person. My husband got the Maple Pecan waffle and I got their new Chicken & Waffles. It was heaven. Period. We will definitely be stalking the truck's location and be back for more. read more

The Waffler - Chicken and waffles! - Food Trucks Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Very unique thing for Kansas City! These waffles are traditional Belgian liege waffles, and "The Waffler," Russell, does a great job. We had two waffles - the original, and the Orange Danish flavor. Both were great, and when Russell told us about some of his upcoming flavors, I was already planning my next trip! The truck and its owner seem charitable and very connected with the community. The tip jar always goes to a local charity. Check Twitter to find out where it is parked each weekend! We caught it in Waldo. This food truck is such a fun treat and a welcome addition to the area! read more

The Waffler - Original, and orange Danish - Food Trucks Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Got my first taste at the PARKED! event in Shawnee and now I want more! I had the chicken and waffles which was amazing. The chicken was crispy and flavorful and the waffle was delicious - not super sweet and a nice contrast to the bit of spice that was in the chicken breading. My only complaint is that the cup it was served in narrowed at the bottom so until you got to the last few pieces you couldn't really re-dip your chicken or waffle in the maple syrup at the bottom of the cup. read more

Wow. Who would have thought that a waffle from a food truck would be this good. I stopped here early on a Sunday morning figuring the daylight savings time change would throw everyone for a loop. Though I had heard about The Waffler's goodness, I had never had an opportunity to try it in person. I've been missing out. My options were limited - plain Liege (vanilla) or red velvet. I wasn't looking for dessert at 8:30 in the morning so the vanilla was an easy choice. $5 for a waffle with a free coffee is a great deal considering the density of the waffle and the incredible flavor that comes with. Don't be fooled - this is not the flaky, light, airy waffle you'd order in a restaurant. It has the volume of a brick but tastes like a slice of heaven. I felt guilty eating my waffle while scores of Trolley Track runners passed by inevitably groaning in caloric judgment of my Sunday breakfast. Will definitely be back. Was really surprised it wasn't busier but I'll take it. Also heard they use the extras to make bread pudding. That would be the best bread pudding ever. Hands down. read more

I've been trying to track this food truck down for a while now and today was the second time I've tried these waffles. The first time, I had the maple & bacon ones. This time, I had the orange danish and classic. Simply put the orange danish and classic ones blew me away. They were perfectly cooked in my opinion having a nice crust on the outside and a little chewy on the inside. The classic has a really good vanilla flavor and the orange danish ones were simply the best waffle I've ever had. The unique sugar he uses also adds a nice touch to compliment the waffle. It's probably a good thing he is a little hard to catch up with and find because I would probably stop wherever he is daily to get these. I can't wait to try the rest of his flavors! read more

"Oh, now I've seen everything..." is what ran through my mind when I saw this truck parked in the entrance to City Market this morning. "How you gonna walk around with syrup running down your arm?" But the nice gentleman was passing out samples, and I couldn't insult him by walking away. Enter The Waffler, purveyor of the portable waffle. Inside that crisp delicate crust is moist, tender cake and enough flavor to make syrup completely unnecessary. The Plain sample I tasted was delicious on its own, but I couldn't resist a Maple Bacon of my very own. It's a wonder I didn't get run over crossing 3rd Street 'cuz I know I wasn't paying any attention to anything but that waffle! Perfect blend of sweet, smoke and salt. They also have a lemon flavor, which sounds strange to me, but given what they've done with the others, I'm sure it's good. Looks like I'll be stalking another food truck. read more

I was a bit underwhelmed. My dad makes gluten free pecan waffles on Sundays and I prefer my dad's. Oh well.

They are great waffles for a breakfast but not impressive as a dessert. A caramel sauce would go a long way.

We love walking to the Waffler on weekends. The owner is really nice, chats with you and makes amazing liege waffles. Make sure you ask about the history of the pearl sugar he uses. My favorites are the regular with cinnamon sugar and the orange. Original is always available, the other flavor rotates. Free coffee and a peanut butter waffle for your pooch. read more

Best waffle I've ever had! The waffle was crispy and the sugar seemed caramelized to perfection! The chicken was crispy goodness! I kinda wish the full size had just one more price of chicken but other than that I'm addicted! read more

Awesome waffles. Enjoy trying different flavors each week. Worth checking out for breakfast. Love that tips are donated back to local charity. Very local find!!! read more

We're newly back to Brookside and have stopped by the Waffler twice since we've been back. What a great food truck! We stopped by the first time and got a couple of each waffles to share with the family. They were great. The second time my daughter and I stopped after a run and ate at the picnic table. A fun weekend morning with some good treats. We then stopped by later that day for some bread pudding. Another hit. The owner and staff are so friendly and very engaging. read more
