I went back to Wally Waffle today. Unfortunately, the experience wasn't much better. I had the breakfast burger. The fries were great. The egg on the burger was great as well. However, the burger was way overcooked and therefore dry. I asked for medium and as you can see in the picture, it is beyond well done. When I paid my bill, the waitress shorted me $5 on change. These little things suggest to me that the staff just needs better training and more quality control. I want to like this place but now we are up to two experiences where dining 101 stuff is lacking. I think this place can be a good breakfast and lunch place, but until there is consistency in quality, I think it will just be a place that we would go to if we happened to be in the area. read more

1-14-24 they told me the wait would be 30 minutes for a table or 5 then sat there for an hour without the lady with RED hair (host) that the wait was going to be longer. I asked after it hit the hour mark, she was rude and told me it would be 20 more minutes after multiple parties went past us that were the same size that gotten there after us. Did not appreciate her attitude when I was simply asking a question read more

Mmm waffle yummy, service ok, in Akron nobody does it better. They always have objectively bad music and it seems to be a little chilly in the restaurant but otherwise ok. read more

Every time we are in the area, Wally Waffles is always on the agenda! Every meal, every single time, has been excellent! From scrambled eggs, to mouthwatering waffles and pancakes and even including sausage gravy, you can't go wrong! The food is always consistently delicious! The staff is always polite and friendly, especially Angel, the2nd longest person employed there (her sister being the longest!). The atmosphere is fun, and the new addition of the waffles on the ceiling is an added attraction (just watch that the syrup doesn't drip on you!). If you're in the area, put Wally Waffles on your list for a delightful breakfast! read more

Just had the most delicious Pancake (3 huge), Scrambled Egg & Turkey Sausage Breakfast with Coffee ever. Well worth the 20 minute wait. Service was excellent, too! My waitress brought me a to go box before I put warm syrup on one half of the pancakes. Now I have another lucious breakfast for tomorrow, too. Will definitely return to try the Pumpkin Waffle before the end of November! read more

The best waffles! I don't care for their sausage links, they seem microwaved or full of fillers. I also don't like that they melt a slice of sandwich cheese on their eggs. But, the waffles alone are worth me giving stars!! read more

Great place great food highland square has great decor with a fake waffle hanging from the ceiling

Fabulous service by Danyel. Great waffles...supper light n so flavorful. Wally fries were delicious as we the omelets.

Everyone is incredibly friendly. The food is fantastic and the service is even better! Come hungry because the portions are very generous. You can't go wrong with anything you pick. Drinks were never empty and the level of attentiveness was just right! Thank you for an amazing Saturday Breakfast!!! read more

Their breakfast is very good. On the weekends this place gets busy but the wait isn't that bad. The one thing that I did notice was the cleanliness of the entire restaurant. It definitely needs some attention. read more

Best waffles ever!!! Service is friendly and fast!!! Always looking forward to going back!!

I decided to stop in before work to treat myself. Now I came in 15 minutes after it opened for the day and wasn't busy at all, but the service was still great. My waitress even offered coffee to go with no extra charge- I thought that was a nice touch. It's a cute restaurant with a modern and clean interior design! There are a good amount of tables with enough space. I got the chicken and waffles with the hash browns. Oh my, it was definitely savory and filling. The chicken was a bit salty, but it was breaded and fried perfectly. So tender and juicy on the inside. The waffle wasn't anything special, but it was still tasty and golden brown. The hash browns were DA BOMB DOT COM. It was my favorite part of the meal. Crispy and a perfect complement to any main entree you desire. Most of all, the price is reasonable! Nothing was overpriced. I love places like this. Definitely coming back. read more

Wally Waffle - Chicken and waffle!!!!! Yum - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Akron, Ohio

By far one of the best breakfast places in the Akron area. If you're a fan of waffles such as myself give them a try!!!

Cheap food but the food is hit or miss depending on the chef. If I order to go they seem to always forget something and the service is subpar for dine in. I also think it's weird that the companies DBA name is "ivegotworms" read more

Best experience for breakfast. My server was Andrea, she was absolutely amazing. She was very attentive and kind. I really had no idea what i wanted and she was patient and walked me through the menu. she really made me feel comfortable. When i return i hope she is there to be the server if so i will request to eat in her section. she is an asset to the Wally Waffle brand. They are very lucky to have a person of her caliber read more

Worst service ever after waiting for 20 minutes..no service someone else walked in off the street and got a table.. horrible service

I love the food they have here! And the coffee is always nice and hot! Today i got the Elvis cakes its a great adventure the first time you order this hahaha a nice triple stack of pancakes with lots of goodies on top! read more

Such great breakfast food. My husband is very picky but absolutely loves Wally Waffle.

Excellent little breakfast spot! Busy when we went but only waited 20 minutes for a table. Staff were all very friendly and helpful! Food was delicious and hit the spot! Reasonable prices! Hubby ordered the Elvis (peanut butter bacon and bananas and more on his waffle), I got the strawberry which was loaded with berries, and we both added waffle buddies (2 eggs, wally fries, and breakfast meat) YUMMM read more

Quick service and delicious food! I highly recommend this restaurant as it has become one of my all time favorites!

This was my second time eating at Wally Waffle and it did not disappoint. After trying it a few months ago, it was definitely on the list of places I wanted to try again. I was in the area so I stopped in for breakfast. Service was great, special orders accommodated with ease, and the food was just awesome. I will go out of my way to eat here anytime I am in the Akron area. Simply terrific so please pass on a great job to all the staff. How do I get a Wally Waffle where I am from? :-) read more

This is my absolute favorite breakfast spot. They have a great selection. Instead of getting chicken & waffles, I always order their chicken wings on the side of whatever I order. They are the most amazing wings I have ever had. The service is always super friendly & right at your service. The restaurant is clean and the waffles are incredible! read more

Very good food. Solid service Deliciously unique menu They keep my bellies full and keep me coming back! read more

5 stars all the way!! Every time I visit from Florida we come to Wally Waffle and it's INCREDIBLE!!!!! Stacy has been our server almost every time and is just so sweet and welcoming! read more

We went out to brunch recently, and my wife insisted on Wally Waffle. She is in love with the Wally Fries, which if you haven't been there, is their version of hash browns, so that's where we went. It was getting a little bit towards noon, so even though the rest of our party wanted breakfast, I wasn't really feeling it. My wife ended up ordering The Big Daddy, which true to its name, contains an entire feast of breakfast foods. It consists of Wally Fries, 2 eggs, toast, two breakfast meats, and pancakes. She went with eggs scrambled, sourdough toast, sausage, and bacon, because really, BACON! I don't recall the exact order of the rest of our party, but do know my father in law got a plain Belgian waffle. When in Rome... So as I mentioned, I wasn't really feeling breakfast at this point, so I ordered the Chicken Royal, which is a grilled chicken breast with American cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and onion on a Kaiser bun served with fries. I should mention at this point, the restaurant was totally slammed, so our order took a while. Not obnoxiously long mind you, just about what you'd expect from a really crowded restaurant. The food comes out and we all dig in. I started with fries, and they aren't just typical French fries, they are more of a fry that is battered before it's cooked. The fries were absolutely delicious! Then I start making up my chicken sandwich with the condiment packets provided. It appeared to me at first that the cheese had melted down onto the grill and gotten a little crispy. No worries there, as I like when I make a grilled cheese at home and it does the same thing. I don't know why, but for some reason, I flipped the chicken breast over, and the bottom of the breast was totally black. I mean scorched. Like nuclear winter. Ugh. So not great at all. Our waitress came by and my wife said excuse me, and the waitress took one look at the sandwich and said yep, and immediately removed it and went back to the kitchen. She came back a minute later and said she was incredibly sorry, and that in addition to making me a new order, she was also going to remove the item from our bill. We said we understood, and these things happen, and she continued to apologize. Meanwhile, everyone else was chowing down. My wife couldn't come close to finishing hers, so I had a few bites of pancake while I waited. They were pretty good! Slightly crispy, not overly sweet, just what you'd expect from a good breakfast place. My father in law said his waffle was great too! Everyone seemed to really enjoy their food. My order came back out, and when the waitress brought it, she apologized again, and said she was sorry I needed to wait while everyone else was eating. New order of fries were just as good as the previous round (bonus fries!!!), and the chicken was cooked perfectly this time, slight grill marks running across, nice tender juicy meat, soft bun, crunchy bacon and meaty cheese. I want to give a ton of kudos for them making everything right. It just goes to show that a well run restaurant really can turn what could have been a negative experience into a positive. We will definitely be back! read more

I wish I could eat here more. My waist won't allow it. But they have incredible waffles, totally provide healthy options upon request, and the prices are moderate enough to be a regular (if I could). I am totally converted from IHOP to Wally Waffle! read more

I've been to this spot pre-COVID and during COVID. Both times, I'd say they earn a four-star rating. The food is good -- not the best in Akron but it's pretty yummy. The food often takes a bit of time to come out; I think during Covid they're doing a lot of to-go orders! Overall, it's a fine experience. I'd recommend trying it out at least once! read more

You'd be hard up to find a waffle or pancake covered in as much syrup as you want (let's pretend it's a lot) that retains its fluffy state! Always a wait here, but that's a good sign. It's affordable with large portion sizes (I always end up getting two meals out of it) and the tastiest waffles. My go-to is the chicken and waffles. There's something about the batter on their chicken that is addicting, I swear! read more

Our waitress Danielle was great. Food came quickly. It was great. My fav thing was the Wally fries loaded!!! We wish we had one in Cleveland. read more

Right smack in the middle... The interior really surprised me. I was thinking it was gonna be like IHOP or something. Instead, it was dynamic, colorful and artsy in their own way. The chalkboard paint added some whimsy, too. I wonder if the buildout was from the previous tenant? Anyway, the big Drumm piece was the most impressive thing about my visit. I ordered the chicken & waffles and it wasn't anything to write home about. I've only had chicken and waffles once (from an upstanding place) so the comparison isn't even fair. I ate maybe a third of it because it just lacked any flavor or interest. I added grits for .99 and they put so much butter in them that you couldn't eat them. My son had the Buckeye waffle and tore it up like no one's business. My boyfirend had the Coconut and thought it was just "ok". The cocout was in the waffle batter and didn't add much flavor. Service was ok. Prices were fair for what you get. There was a long line waiting to be seated when we left so call ahead if you don't want to wait. read more

Wally waffle is one of my favorite breakfast places. The food is always great. The staff is friendly and take care of you. It's always a great vibe when i go. Will always be my first recommendation read more

This is an interesting place. It has more pancake options then Waffle options, but hay, what is in a name. The food has always been good. The portions, depending on what you get are either right sized or huge. So you get your value. The facility is always clean and the staff has been friendly. The challenge is that the staff is usually stretched so you do not really get the kind of attention the price warrants. So you are going to pay 2 - 3 bucks for a drink and may or may not get a refill. This just happens to be a pet peeve of mine. I have not done lunch, but the burgers look grate. The breakfast is always a hit and I am not sure you can go wrong with anything you order. Last time I was there I got a waffle and fried chicken wrap thing. Not the breakfast plate, but a wrap/sandwich. It was really good and hit the spot. Their menu is large, a little confusing, so expect to read and flip and read and flip. But once you hone in, you will be good to go. Saturday and Sunday mornings are crazy crowded so expect to wait. read more

First time great experience! This was our first visit to a Wally Waffle and it exceeded our expectations for a good breakfast. The location was very clean, we watched staff clean tables, servers were friendly and "masked up", meal was delivered quickly and met all our expectations. Our server returned often for refills, offered to go drinks and ended the visit with an invite to return. Would definitely recommend for a good breakfast. read more

Skip Denny's and come to Wally's for the best waffle in town. The price is right, the staff is friendly, and the presentation is top notch (see my photo of the Liberty Waffle). The hours are a drag, but you can't blame them for catering to their corporate neighborhood. The Wallhaven location is sorely missed. read more

Wally Waffle - The Liberty Waffle: Strawberries, Bananas and Blueberries. Oh, and a little crème... - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Akron, Ohio

I entered wally waffle on this beautiful Sunday morning and it was packed but only had about a 20 minute wait for three people which was not a too bad time to wait in my honest opinion. When it came time to order I ordered the Holy Cow Burger which is a half pound burger topped with onion rings and drenched in sweet baby rays barbecue sauce which was a nice touch for the sandwich and it was nice and tangy and went well with the onion rings and the burger. The burger itself did not feel like a half pound to me in my opinion but it was still a decent burger and it has a charbroiled taste to it which it gave it some flavor but all in all it was a decent meal and the pickle and french fries were a nice touch with the meal and this meal ony came to 8.99. but the reason I gave it a four star rating is because we had an awesome waitress she was really polite and friendly and quick and gave me the wifi password when I asked for it so she did an awesome job. read more
