If there's one thing America can count on, it's that Waffle House will always have hot coffee, crispy bacon, and a booth ready for you no matter what time you walk in. The Sanford location did not disappoint. Coffee came out in that iconic heavy Waffle House mug--the kind that just feels right in your hands. Breakfast was exactly what you hope for: waffles cooked to that perfect golden crisp (the chocolate chip waffle was the star), bacon with just the right sizzle, and hashbrowns that stayed crunchy all the way through my meal. Eggs were cooked well, toast was buttery, and everything came out fast. Service was friendly and efficient, even during a busy morning rush. The team here keeps things moving without losing that classic Waffle House charm. If you want a no-frills, consistently good breakfast in Sanford--with strong coffee, hot food, and comfort you can taste--this Waffle House is a solid stop. read more

Food and service was amazing. The managers Amanda and Jenna were not helping out staff during a busy lunch rush and as regulars at this location it would've greatly improved food wait time and general service within the store. read more

I've never seen this level of blatant racism. I was told to order at the to go window but there were 3 white customers allowed in the establishment AND served. After I was directed to the window. My mind is blown! read more

Waffle House - Racism at its finest - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sanford, Florida

Placed a to go order on a Sunday around 11am. This place was POPPIN (popular/packed). Despite that, my order was prepared timely and correct! The food was hot and exactly what I was expecting. If you've never been to a Waffle House, it's a casual diner, used to be open 24/7 but I would check that before going at an odd hour. I hadn't been to a Waffle House in years before this visit but I'll definitely circle back soon read more

Waffle House - 2 egg breakfast with toast and hash browns smothered/covered/peppered. Yum! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sanford, Florida

Haven't been to one of these in 25 years! Very happy with breakfast. The Cook made over easy eggs perfectly and my bacon was nice and soft. I saw him take such care in cleaning the griddle. He did it twice in the time we were here. Waffles of course were delish. Give this place a try for a laid back atmosphere and decent prices! read more

What's not to love about Waffle House? The food is consistent, and good. The prices are reasonable, and you're in and out without hassle. Can it get busy? Definitely. Every single location is always super busy. But if I want a no nonsense steak & eggs w/a coffee, this is my go to spot. Especially this location in Sanford, because the service is always fast and friendly. They never seem to be short staffed, and even when busy, the wait time isn't too bad. read more

Best experience ever and you can't beat the price of the all star sampler. Brought my girlfriend here and now she loves me more. Dee is one of the best servers ever!! read more

Once you've been to a Waffle House, you've been to every Waffle House! I've been to ones in Maryland, Virginia, Texas, and now Florida. I love that they are 24/7, I love that the food is like home cooking, I love that it's greasy, sloppiness is part of the charm. With that said, this particular waffle house was easily the cleanest and orderly one I've been to. The employees were actually cracking jokes and dancing and seemed to be having a blast. And this is all before 9am! God bless their lil souls. Food made to order. Crispy bacon, sunny side up fried eggs, whole wheat toast and crispy shredded potatoes with grilled onions and tomatoes. All delightful! read more

This is my first time to this location and as an avid Waffle House go-er I have to say this has been the nicest Waffle House visit I've ever had. Will was our server and he was so attentive and kind (so were the other women working). I will only ever come to this location from now on. read more

Hello, it is I, Gustavo! I am here to bring you my first yelp review, or as I call it, y help? (Get it?). But yes. Where to begin? I drive very late at night on occasion, to avoid the night yelling of my wife of course. This one particular cold and not so stormy night, I find myself in the pits of despair. Head pounding, heart beating, I dig my fingernails into my velvet steering wheel cover (which is the height of luxury in my country). As my symptoms stack up by the minute, I notice a new opposition! A dreaded shooting pain in my side! Yeeeouch. As the all-consuming hunger begins to chase me, my need for consumption rises. Then I see it, approaching in the distance. The yellow beacon of hope, like a city on a hill, a glowing sign that brings promises of the new world, a house made of waffles! I park my '97 Corolla out front and walk up to the establishment. Just as I reach for the handle, a masked man jumps from the bushes to ambush me! Oh the excitement, I love a good challenge. I fight off the assailant in the nick of time and enter the palace. This place has jukebox style music, very classy. I am told by lady waitress who is also chef and manager to "sit wherever." Oh am I a sucker for a sense of control. I choose to sit in the high top bar counter. I order and watch in awestruck amazement as drunken multipurpose worker lady cracks eggs with one hand and smokes cigarette with other. Just like father! Wow! It is at this moment that I remember that I failed to mention I eat enough to feed small village, very important in the coming events (picture below.) Plate after plate, I shovel the grease and gristle into my mouth hole, loving every minute of it. In a raspy southern charm voice of another patron, I hear "slow down bud" which invigorates me to eat even faster. After all this food, I expect hefty bill that make my wife yell real loud, but instead I am greeted by bill that just says $22.57! What a deal and what a journey. Wife will only yell a little, so I will return. 5/5. -Gustavo read more

Waffle House - So much food, Gustavo ate all! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sanford, Florida

Everything I ordered was perfect. Waitress was very polite and made sure everything was ok.

Of course my Lake Mary Waffle House is best. Has that neighborhood family diner vibe. Google payonly now, not Apple yet but hopefully it's on the way. HINT Laura puts my hash browns on my bacon and egg sandwich and let me Cash App her my bill that time I lost my wallet and got breakfast instead of looking for it. She is the ! read more

Absolutely wonderful management; kind and understanding, the staff moves at a fast pace ready to satiate any need you have with a smile on their face. read more

My first Waffle House experience and I loved it! The server was super nice. It was clean and everyone was great. I enjoyed my breakfast and will be returning when I'm in the area. I ordered cheesesteak bowl and it delicious. Shout out to Liz our server. read more

For a fast food diner that just opened, they did a fantastic job with the influx of people lining up to go in! The staff was very friendly and despite the wait, they got the tables turned over quickly. My party and I ordered the pecan waffle, regular waffle, hashbrowns, an egg cheese bacon sandwich, sausages, and scrambled eggs. Food came right out and everything tasted good. The waffles were fluffy and I particularly liked the way they cooked my scrambled eggs. The eggs weren't salted which I enjoyed because then I could control how much salt I want in it. The sausages weren't as juicy as I would've liked them to be but they weren't bad. The menu is small and pretty simple. Overall I enjoyed our meal. Our bill for 3 hungry people who just biked all the way there was only $30! I would come back for a quick and simple breakfast which is what I believe they're all about... nothing extremely elevated but just good old-fashioned breakfast. read more

Awesome food and good server! Had a young boy named Trenton as my server a few weeks ago, was SUPER helpful and nice and down to earth! Always happy to see him when I come in on my late nights. Haven't seen him recently...hope he didn't get fired...he honestly deserves a raise. read more

Waffle House - a plate of food - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sanford, Florida

This place sucks and swallows. I generally am not kept waiting 20 minutes without even being offered a coffee at least. They have three people standing around but one cooking. The order taker seems oblivious to my presence. I refuse to wait longer than 20 minutes. Bye now. read more

Seriously??? Take out orders only after 9pm??? So much for being the 24 hour restaurant that everyone can count on. Not cool. read more

This place makes a great hamburger and breakfast is always available. Coffee is great. I highly recommend it.

Stopped in for a quick breakfast and was stopped at the door and told they were only serving waffles and drinks. When we asked why the employee told us "because the supervisor has too much to do". read more

I usually come here every Saturday, but will no longer. I walked in and was greeted by an amazing young lady who is disabled. I place my to go order and as I wait I see two waitresses and a cook proceeded to look at her and make jokes among themselves about her. This sickens me and is unacceptable. read more

My family and I decided to stop by and check out this location, and I must be honest, we decided to walk away, not sure what as more appalling if the smell of pot or the arguing between themselves, or the fact that we came in sat down, and we're not given any utensils but aside that the I must say the fact that we had to wait for them to come inside from there group smoking break, and food was clearly rushed, We have visited several locations and never had an experience so appalling an extremely unprofessional, I am not sure if this is the same way that they run the store in the morning hours but whoever is in charge of this store should take a closer look and make some extremely necessary changes to this group of employees doing the evening hours. my family and I will NOT be coming back , witch is sad I must say being that this location is the closest we have to home. WAFFLE HOUSE please do better. read more

Waffle House. What do I even say to capture my one night in that quaint little shack. You can't classify this location with the regular restaurants. I'd classify this place as the middle ground between "the place you go after a high school performance of legally blonde with 24 raging and tired teens who all pay in cash and erupt in song after they eat" and "the 3 AM trip you make when you've hit absolute rock bottom and need something cheap yet solidly understanding of your depression induced impulse trip". Both are equally important as they come from extreme joy and extreme melancholy (remembering the good old days in high school when my friends and I would talk about how we did horribly on our chemistry test and what boy had our interest at the time). Waffle House is a solid anchor in the waves of shock and tragedy that fill my life. I always find myself here, whether at the end of a storm or the beginning of another tragically epic one. I'm hurting every day by what you've done to me. It only costs 50 cents to upgrade to a double hash brown and my meal was just short of 8 dollars! It may not be the cleanest but it sure is nice. Here I don't find a Waffle House as a food establishment- I find it as a waffle home. The employees are as strange and intriguing as my mom's weird neighbors that always stared a little too long when we got out of the car in my school days. They're as close as those cousins you have to love but feel sorry for because of the intense pain and sorrow that befalls their life and marks their history. I will never eat here again, but yet I still hear, no no, TASTE the flavors of grease and potato on the tip of my tongue... I guess that's what they all say read more

First I sat on the phone on hold for like 10 minutes, an no one came back to the phone to take my order. So I go over to the restaurant to make my order, once I got home most of it was wrong and was missing things. So. Thanks for the start of my morning!! read more

Two times I've been there and two times they have screwed up my order, I get home to find out that items were missing and they also put the wrong food in my bag. This happened two times, I will never be back and I will not recommend this place to anyone. They need to train their employees better read more

Store is always clean , of the 6 or so times I've been there it's been good quick service and my waffles always melt the butter

This is the 4th time my family has tried this WH location. We were excited when they opened because they are so close to our home vs the Altamonte location; however we will NEVER visit this location again. They are slow, inconsistent & literally serve dried out, over cooked food with cold cheese on top & numerous other "add ins" they thought you wanted but didn't ask for. Not to mention I think they add. Ills up incorrectly. Just this afternoon they served us black hash browns & a black hamburger with a last minute slice of cold cheese on top. Back to Altamonte we go!! Don't waste your time waiting 25 minutes for a table here, just keep driving to another established WH location. read more

My Husband and I came from Michigan and went to this waffle House with family from the airport it was HORRIBLE we was there around 8 Pm January 17th our server was an older lady not only was she slow all our food orders was cold I ordered the breakfast meal eggs potatoes ham & one waffle the waffles sat on the counter are about 10 minutes this lady served them to another customer and them they made it to our table COLD the eggs potatoes & ham was to be on one plate they came out one at time and COLD this lady is going to drive this waffle house into the ground and I think she was the manager and all she did was blame this on the cook and was loud doing so the cook did a great job but this lady as go to go I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THIS WAFFLE HOUSE read more

This is literally the worst waffle house I've been to, cooks and staff always arguing/fighting. Horrible service at the register. They act as if you don't exist. What happened to my favorite breakfast place? read more

Really clean, newer Waffle House! They just built it a year or 2 ago so it's nicer and the people are really nice. Food was cheap and good! What more can you ask for read more

Our server Kim/Turtle was very funny and had great energy. However, the kitchen was very loud and made it difficult to hear our conversation. read more

Horrible. I've visited twice and the food was a mess both times. Clearly this people haven't been trained.

A friend and I both love WH so decided to stop at this new location. We were warmly greeted and as we sat down at a booth an employee came over to say "That table hasn't been cleaned yet. Let me get that now". I told her it was my friend's birthday and asked if they could give him a WH hat. They all autographed his hat (at his request) while serving us a great breakfast. As we left, we heard all the staff yelling "Happy birthday, Kyle!". The food was great and the service was amazing. read more
