Our first visit so the staff member said they choose what you eat and if you don't like it after 2 bites, you can choose something else. What a concept "Try before you like it ". This establishment has been featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins & Dives (see photo) and is very inclusive which was super cool. You can write on the wall about your visit which I found to be fun and inviting. I had the House Omelette which was surprisingly flavorful and excellent. It was exactly what I was looking forward to for breakfast. I tried some of the chicken from Crazy Uncle and was amazing! I was so surprised and delighted as was the rest of my party. Now, I have to pay and that is where I will share my appreciation :0) read more

I've been to Waffles and Whatnot three times in just the past couple of weeks, and every visit has been incredible! Leer (sorry if I'm spelling that wrong!) has been absolutely amazing each time--so kind and welcoming--and the same goes for the other cashiers and cooks. The whole team creates such a positive vibe from the moment you walk in. My go-to meal? The chicken, mac & cheese, and waffle loaded with cookie butter, strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. On my very first visit, they asked what flavors I liked, and I told them "sweet and savory"--and they nailed it. Ever since then, it's been my regular. I always think about trying something new, but I can't help coming back for that combo--it's just that good. Today, Leer mentioned they were exploring opening new locations, and I told her Fort Worth would absolutely love a place like this. With the owner being a veteran and Fort Worth having such a strong military community, I know people there would rally behind it. We love supporting our own. Also, if you really listen, the music playing in the background is all original--and every track tells a story about the restaurant's culture, energy, and mission. That level of intention just makes the experience even more special. All in all: great people, great food, great energy. Hopefully we'll meet again in Fort Worth! Editing to add a BIG shoutout to the man running the window that food gets picked up from. I saw him let a customer (who looked like he was wearing a kufi) know that the Mac n cheese was cooked in bacon grease. The customer was unaware of this and was grateful and changed his order. That kind of cultural awareness and honesty shows that place isn't just about great food--it's about heart. read more

Waffles and Whatnot - Fruity Delight Waffle - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Two words: speech-less! Hands down without a doubt the best waffle I have ever had. Thankfully as a first time customer I didn't have to make the hard choice of choosing just one item off of the incredible looking menu. And I was pleasantly surprised at what I received. The softest, lightest waffle with the perfect sweetness and the most tender, crispiest chicken I've ever tasted. Paired with the spicy bbq sauce the creamy Mac I was in love after one bite. This place knows exactly how to do waffles the right way. The food came quick and served hot. This is the perfect spot for a filling meal that will warm the winter away! read more

Food came quickly and was delicious as it always is :) When ordering this time though I was rushed to move along with it being steadily busy, as it usually is on a Sunday afternoon. As I went to add my email after paying, the woman skipped allowing me to add my rewards for my $20+ order which would have gotten me another reward. When I expressed I wanted to add my rewards with a new card she told me I couldn't. Overall great food and experience , employee just seemed a bit overwhelmed. read more

Waffles and Whatnot - WAWN Bad Ass Yard Bird (BAYB) with Heaven style waffle - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

This is probably the best place I had in Anchorage. Customer service was top notch. When you walk in they ask if this is your first time here. If you say yes they said that they pick the food for you and all you do is say if you like sweet or savory or both. You pay after because if you don't like it you don't pay. I paid upfront cause I trust confidence. Both me and my friend got great recommendations. You must come! Ambiance is family friendly and parking is in the front. read more

They say, "You can't judge a book by its cover,"and that is true of this restaurant. We went to Waffles And What Not (WAWN) because it was featured on Food Network's Diners Drive-ins and Dives. This place is an unassuming hole-in-the wall that we probably would not have tried if I hadn't noticed that it was featured on Food Network. I am glad I did. Playful, and quirky, WAWN was a delightful breath of fresh air on an otherwise gray day. We were greeted with a promise that first time patrons would have their meals chosen for them, If we didn't like what was served within two bites; they would take the uneaten food no charge and prepare food of our choice. They chose perfectly. Like the three bears I like my food savory, my son likes his food sweet. My wife likes her food savory and sweet. My son's Chocolate Banana Belgian waffle was very sweet and he loved it. My wife's Chicken and Waffles served with mac-n-cheese was perfect. She loves Mac-n-cheese. My waffle Sandwich filled with eggs, chicken and Bacon with cheese was so filling I could only eat half! I can't wait to eat the other half! Their coffee was rich and flavorful as well. The restaurant interior is decorated with customer graffiti. Patrons from days gone by have shared their names, art and wisdom in multicolored markers over most of the walls. A few flat screens display menu items and feature local advertisements. One monitor near the register shows the menu. The tables are bright red wooden picnic tables. WAWN looks a bit sketchy from the outside, and truthfully from the inside too. But, it is delicious food at Alaska affordable prices. Our total bill was about 60.00 with tip. Which is on the lower end for Alaska where I have found prices are about 20% or more higher than the lower 48. I absolutely recommend this gem to locals and visitors alike. It is quirky but in a good way that is fun and delicious, like art that should be cherished. Definitely, an experience I recommend. read more

I stopped in on my coworkers' recommendation. I like the concept. All meals are based on the waffle. The staff is friendly and fun and helpful. When you walk in for the 1st time, you could be overwhelmed. The staff makes your first pick, if you don't know what you want. If you don't like it, you get a free replacement choice. You can choose, sweet, heat or a combination of both. The concept is breakfast all day. There is space in the dining area. You aren't packed in like sardines. The dining area is well kept and neat. My meal was actually pretty good. Cash/Credit/Debit are accepted here. read more

Waffles and Whatnot - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Man, what a good breakfast! Honestly, I'm not sure what I got since it was our first time and chosen for us, but it did not disappoint. The sausage gravy, probably some of the best sausage gravy I have had in a long time. That is saying something since I live in TX, aka the home of some really good sausage gravies. The bacon was cooked perfect and wasn't some cheapo thin bacon that lots of other places serve. Others in our group had an omelet with a waffle, a fruity waffle and the straight up waffle plate. Everyone was super happy and it was a great meal. If we are ever back in town, we will 100% be back! read more

Second time coming to their new-ish brick and motor store on Muldoon I think where the old Paris cafe used to be. It's definitely an interesting inside. Green pained floors with a dozen bright red picnic tables to sit at. The walls are covered with people's messages and signatures (ours included, look for one of the Woodstocks) they also have a kid area with books and toys. You go up to the counter to order and then they bring it out to you or call your name. This is a triple D location because his waffles are darn good. Even his chicken strips. Wow. If you learned about the owner, Derek's backstory, you'd appreciate his businesses and the food even more. All this for $13. Staff are nice too and trained well. read more

We finally made our way over here after seeing that they WAWN was on Diners, Drive ins, and Dives. I wish we came sooner! When we got there they said since it was our first time they were going to surprise us, and they did! It was amazing! The ambiance makes you feel like your outside at picnic tables ordering from a food truck, which my husband and I both liked since Alaskans only get to spend a handful of days outside. We are both on keto and they have amazing keto options that taste delicious! (The photo pictured I cheated that day ) If you haven't gone here yet, don't wait any longer! The staff are amazing, it's clean (including the bathrooms), and the food is to die for! Thank you for offering keto options WAWN ! read more

Waffles and Whatnot - Waffle as big as my face - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

My first time to Anchorage Alaska and it was amazing to discover Waffles and whatnot. I have never had waffle so fluffy and tasty and the chicken was OMG. If you're ever in Anchorage Alaska, this is a must visit, wish I could've went back before we left. The staff and the owner were so amazing to be able to speak with laugh and joke is not normal at most restaurants, but these people are amazing.. read more

Absolutely delicious! We got the salty crazy uncle and the fruity delight. The waffles were perfect, and I loved both the savory and sweet options. There was an interesting hot sauce with the uncle that really added something. And the butter/whipped cream combo on the sweet option was surprisingly refreshing. They are in a strip mall and parking can be a little tight. But the line moved quickly and it's open seating so you just squeeze in wherever you can fit. The walls were beautifully hand painted. The bathrooms were clean, though there was nowhere to hang my sweater/bag. They have Pepsi products, juice, and hot coffee. It looked like their Togo orders were hopping too! I'll definitely be back. :) read more

As first timers, we started off allowing the team to choose for us! They asked us for any dietary or allergy restrictions and presented three meals that were out of this world! Huge portions! Tasty, flavorful, and so nutritious we learned from the owner, Derrick! This man and his team show a real passion for cooking and feeding people while addressing dietary needs and flavor profiles that are out of this world! Easy to see why he was visited by Guy Fieri, King of flavor town. We will definitely be back.!!! read more

I have need wanting to try this place since it was a food truck! Life, work, and the pandemic just kept me busy and away, but here I am at the store front - AND loving the vibe! I may be biased as a veteran, but I am happy for this veteran-owned establishment and how he gives back to the community - advocates for our veterans in need & serves up good food! read more

Our family of four had lunch here with friends today at their recommendation. Was NOT disappointed. The staff informed us that first-timers just need to answer a few questions and they will choose your items for you. The food arrived within 20 minutes of ordering and it was all excellent. The chicken was all well cooked but still tender and juicy. The mac and cheese has a surprising garlic punch that was delightful. The waffles are all perfectly crisp but fluffy. Peanut butter is drizzled precisely to fill the pockets but not spill over. Fruit is ripe and flavorful. Eggs are cooked just past runny but short of firm. There is nothing I could imagine improving and I'm rather particular about my food. The environment is simple but pleasant, park bench style layout with food-truck ordering. However, you don't have to pick it up, as it is delivered to your table. Staff not only delivered in a timely manner but check back twice on our experience without intruding. I always enjoy finding places with such professional & charming service. If you like chicken & waffles, you won't go wrong here. read more

Waffles and Whatnot - Banana Nutella Fruity Delight - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

This restaurant can be described as unique and exceptional. We arrived to the restaurant and were greeted by the staff asking if this was our first time. It was our first time. So, the chefs chose our first meal and stated that if we didn't like what they chose for us, then after two bites we could return it and choose something else from their full menu. There was a bit of skepticism at first, but they delivered and then some! I was brought a Confused Cousin which was: two fluffy waffles with crispy chicken strips, flavorful mac n cheese, drizzled in barbecue and spicy sauce! I was completely unaware that Guy Fieri actually helped create this sandwich. My wife's meal was called the Mistress: one fluffy waffle drizzled in chocolate, topped with sliced blueberries, strawberries, bananas, and whipped cream, mac n cheese, and chicken strips. Both meals were very delicious! While we dined not only did we enjoy the food, we also enjoyed the music and the friendly staff. This is a gem hidden in Anchorage! read more

After today, I'm definitely going to have to apologize to my family for depriving them of such a delicious experience for so long! I recently tried waffles and oh my goodness, it was absolutely amazing! I'm not exactly sure what the dish we had was called, but it was out of this world. For first-timers, they like to choose the meal for you, and if you don't like it within the first two bites, they will make something else for you. They asked me a couple of questions about my tastes and allergies, then inquired about what I was in the mood for. After that, they instructed me to take a seat and told me they would call me when the meal was ready. The dining room was set up like a park, with picnic tables as if you were eating outside of a food truck. It was a really unique and fun atmosphere that added to the experience. When our food was called up, it was like magic on a plate! The chicken was super moist, the sauces were delicious, and the waffles were perfectly cooked. I could honestly go on for quite a while about how good my food was and all the little details that made it so amazing, but I'll just recommend that you get down there and experience this place for yourself! If you're a foodie like me, you need to try this place! #FoodTruckEats #WaffleLove #FoodieFinds #DeliciousEats Don't miss out on the opportunity to try something new and delicious! It's definitely worth it. Let me know if you've been there and what your favorite meal was! read more

Was in Anchorage for the Mayor's Half Marathon and heard about Waffles and Whatnot and baaaaby this spot did not disappoint. First the chefs asks you about your likes and dislikes...then you wait....they did say if you did not like your food, you can bring it back and they will cook you something else. I received an amazing plate of chicken and waffles. The chicken was juicy and crunchy and the waffles was so flavorful and just dang good. I definitely deserved the hype it gets. My food did NOT go back...I devoured it all. The place is not heavily decorated but great for groups. The wait is decent and its definitely worth the wait. read more

Waffles and Whatnot - Waffles Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

From the outside it looks like it would be a pawn shop. Inside I was slightly taken aback as it looks a little more centered around kids kind of like a daycare. I think it's supposed to be like going to a food truck with the picnic table experience inside. Your first time eating there you don't choose what they make you. You give them your allergies and they whip up something to accommodate. So that's a different kind of experience. The food is wonderful. I don't know how they just know what I like and how I like it but it was incredibly well done. I'm unsure what the sauces are but I did get some kind of sweet nut butter sauce with my waffle and sweet hot sauce with my fried chicken. The amount of food served is so large you could easily feed two people from one plate. There's a pretty obvious tone of politics in the restaurant but overall the people are friendly and the food is good. read more

First time here and they greeted us like we'd been there before. They said first timers we like to pick your plates. Okay, Neat. We're game after asking us of any dietary restrictions or allergies they said if you don't like it it's free. GAME ON! When in Waffle And Whatnot land do as they do! So we grabbed coffees and hung till our surprise meals came. I told them I didn't want a sweet plate ... watching my weight and they accommodated me! I got a scramble of eggs with veggies like broccoli, asparagus, peppers and onions with melty cheese. A low carb waffle with sugar free maple syrup and fresh blueberries. It was very good. Judy got as a surprise a waffle and fried chicken strips with a tangy BBQ sauce. The waffle was topped with Nutella and blueberries, banana slices and fresh whipped cream. We shared and compared. We were good with the choices they made for us. We both want more veggies like broccoli and asparagus in our scrambles/omelets now! Great food. GO! read more

Food, service atmosphere...THIS place has it ALL! First time visiting, they asked if they could make a selection for me...if I didn't like it, I didn't have to pay. Man! I was given chicken tenders with Mac & cheese along with a waffle with strawberries & whipped cream, and a drink (Arnold Palmer). I'm not even a waffle or a chicken tenders fan and it was a bit early for Mac & cheese but I gotta tell you...I LOVED IT ALL!!! The tenders were spot on as was the waffle (which didn't need syrup) and everything flowed sooooo well together! I'll be back soon, I can assure you! read more
