    a table full of food
    Liz F.

    Sometimes on a road trip, there's nothing like a big Waffle House breakfast to get you going. My husband loves Waffle House actually, so I've been to quite a few in various towns. This Waffle House was the best run I've ever seen. When we arrived, there wasn't a booth open for our family, but as soon as a group left, there was a busser there to get the table ready for us. Our waitress was so kind and patient with our kids who had been in the car for a while, and the cashier talked to our toddler despite being very busy. I was very impressed by the manager who was supportive of her team, shouting 'good job' at the cooks and helping to get food out to the tables. She was an excellent leader and the restaurant ran was running like a well-oiled machine. Our food was great too - hot, fresh, and served very quickly. Photo of our mostly eaten food just because :)

    The calendar said tomorrow was Valentine's Day. I knew I couldn't please them all when I could only get 1 reservation for the dining room at my White Castle. So I left town, driving south thru blizzards and road closures. In the wee hours of the morning, I parked at a small truck stop at Franklin, KY. Off to sleep I went, contemplating the dirty looks I would get when I return home. I woke up and the sun was out. No help to the temperatures outside, it was still 20°. Valentine's Day! My heart ached. What better remedy than to go to Waffle House. I found one merely 3/4 mile away. True, it was a brisk walk, but what better exercise to get back into my bikini figure!?! I was able to find the Waffle House easily - they have a large sign out front. I walked in and most of the booths were filled. I opted to sit at the counter. The delicious smell of waffles filled the air! The first order of business was to warm up from my walk. I was offered coffee, but decided on tea instead. Time to decide on a meal. I looked over both sides of the menu, finally selecting the Sausage Egg & Cheese Hashbrown Bowl. My sweet server probably knew it was Valentine's Day and saw that I was dining alone. In order to make me feel welcomed, she announced to everyone, the meal I had selected. In a loud voice. Okay, so the meal was good, service was excellent, and if I walk fast enough on the way back, it will probably be a zero-calorie result. Stop by when you're in the area. I-65, exit 2. Just a couple miles north of the Tennessee line. P.S. I was already 2 blocks away when I realized that I forgot to leave a tip. Of course, I walked back and made things right.

    I love the Waffle House. I'm not a big fan of the Waffle House's in our area. The quality isn't as good and service can be rough. This location is awesome! We were greeted warmly and our server was very attentive. Our food was excellent, especially those cheesy grits. They were well prepared. Everything came out in a timely manner and everyone is just so friendly. The restaurant is well kept and clean.

    Waffle House Fan! I travel. I travel a lot. This particular WH hit all my high notes. We walked in on a very early morning (Monday). There were two folks working. One was cleaning the other was in the back. The waiter stopped what he was doing and took our order. I have recently found that WH does a hashbrown bowl. You can order it with your choice of bacon or sausage (I always opt for the sausage). Pro Tip - Top it with Sausage Gravy. The tasty food came quick, the coffee continuous, the conversation was awesome and we were out the door on our way back to Pittsburgh. Great stuff - great people.

    The picture actually makes the food look better...

    Uncle John's American Diner - Cowboy Eggs

    Uncle John's American Diner

    4.5(76 reviews)

    Nice little diner! Greeted and seated quickly, My French Toast was a huge order at a great price…read moreand was fluffy and custard-y! His eggs, sausage and pancakes were also spot on! Definitely a great diner!

    My friend and I were looking for a spot to grab a quick lunch and catch up on some business, and…read moresince we were both in the mood for a diner, we ended up at Uncle John's American Diner in Goodlettsville. The Vibe: We arrived a little after 2 p.m., knowing they closed at 3, so the team was already starting to wind things down and close off part of the dining room. The place looks and feels exactly like you'd expect from a classic diner, simple, casual, and comfortable. It was clean, which I always appreciate. The only small quirk was that our booth table sat a little off-center, so we had to do a quick adjustment, but no big deal. Service: Our server looked like he might've just started, honestly, he couldn't have been more than 12 (lol). You could tell he was new and nervous, but very polite and trying hard. When I ordered the breakfast croissant, he quickly said they were out, and another server jumped in to help clarify part of my friend's order. Despite the small hiccups, everything was handled kindly, and he was genuinely nice. Food & Drinks: I went with the Breakfast Burrito, and it was good -- nothing to write home about, but solid. The scrambled eggs were super fluffy, which stood out, and the salsa had good flavor. My friend ordered the Cowboy Eggs (two eggs over crispy tortillas with refried beans, cheese, and avocado). He felt the same -- decent, but standard. He also mentioned his coffee wasn't hot -- more "end-of-day warm," lol -- which fit the late-afternoon timing. On the drive back, he said something didn't sit quite right afterward, which was unusual for him. Overall: It was fine for what it was -- clean, friendly, and typical diner fare -- but nothing that would make me want to stop in again, even if I were close by. Date of Visit: November 2, 2025
