Hope the server made a mistake on that one??!

Ed's was BUSY! A line to be seated and an even longer line for takeout. I got a little two top next to the stools at the counter. It was fun hearing all the chatter coming from the hardworking folks in the kitchen. Service is attentive and to the point. I got a couple of hot dogs with chili, mustard, and slaw on them. They came out quickly and everything was piping hot. Standard chili and slaw and bun. Nothing amazing but nothing to find fault with either. I took my check to the window, paid, and was out in about 15 minutes. A nice little place to grab a bite in Whiteville.

Walking in, it raised many memories of my youth: not fancy or particularly clean (especially the restrooms) yet greeted by pleasant smiles, friendly servers & staff, always more important to me/us! Our server was quick with taking and returning with our drink orders. She followed with attention to the time we needed to decide on our orders. Further, she was one of only 2 servers of a completely full dining room! I'm so disappointed I didn't get her name...I just didn't want to interrupt her industrious focus. Each of the 4 of us ordered a brunch item: eggs, omelette, and waffle with either country ham, bacon, sausage and/or grits, and coffee, that my husband stated "was the BEST!" A disappointment I do have is the condition of the restroom. It neglects an opportunity to reflect the positive qualities of the "front of the house" yet, we would return to Waffle International if ever passing through again.

We decided to stop in and try Waffle International for breakfast on our way to Columbia. The…read morewaffles were good, but the bad outweighed the good. Pulling up to this place you can tell that this is visibly a hole in the wall restaurant. The outside looked tired (old) and is not appealing to customers. But, it was still busy, as this is cited as the "best breakfast" in Whiteville. That is undeniably subjective. When you walk in you will notice that most things look dirty (except your table). The floor is sticky, the bathrooms are dirty, and the paint on the wall is peeling. It is also dark on the inside (poor lighting). Our food took about an hour to get to our table. My waffle was actually great, meanwhile my eggs and bacon and all of my dad's food were cold. This is because our server left our food that came out first sitting instead of giving it to us, and waited for my waffle to come out. We would have rather had that food first while it was hot, and I would have been fine with getting my waffle afterwards. That was disappointing. What bumps it up to 2 starts instead of 1 is the service. Our server was nice, and frequently checked on ALL of her tables.

Found this place on our way to Charlotte from the beach and stopped when everything downtown was…read morecrowded. Glad we did! It took us a while to our sandwiches (4 cheese melt and steak melt) but the staff were very patient and answered all our questions. We decided to eat outside and our food was delivered with a smile. Bread was thick and nicely browned, like Texas toast. 4 cheeses included pepper Jack which was a surprise, and may have been mentioned. That cheese was also in the steak, and that was fine. Steak was strictly ok, not a lot of meat taste but nice consistency. Added mushrooms were plentiful and tasty. Both sandwiches were large enough to fill hungry travelers. Overall I'm glad we stopped and tried Sun-sational. If we once again find ourselves in Whiteville I would stop and try something else, because all the sandwiches looked creative and a good value. Recommended!

To Whom It May Concern,.. no stars. but I had to add one (sadly)…read more On September 24, 2025, my 90-year-old Native American mother and I visited your establishment, as we've done weekly for some time. We typically use the drive-thru, park, and enjoy our meal together in the truck. It's a small tradition that means a lot to us. On this particular visit, we ordered our usual items and requested they be toasted and heated. After paying, the young cashier instructed us to circle back through the drive-thru. We complied, even though there were now 3-4 cars ahead of us. Oddly, the car directly in front of us was not asked to circle around, which raised questions about consistency in service. After waiting over 25 minutes, we returned to the window and asked again if the sandwiches had been properly heated and toasted. The cashier assured us they had just come out of the oven. We parked and began to eat. My mother immediately noted her sandwich was cold. I checked mine--same issue. Neither sandwich had been heated as requested. I walked inside to explain the situation and requested a refund. The older woman behind the counter, who appeared to be the manager, refused, stating, "We don't give money back." She then unwrapped the sandwiches, touched them, and offered to reheat them. I found this deeply concerning--placing outside food back into a kitchen oven is a serious sanitary violation. She also remarked, "Restaurants don't give money back," which I found dismissive and inaccurate. I've traveled the world and dined in countless establishments--many of which prioritize customer satisfaction and would have handled this differently. Still, I remained calm and returned to the truck to assist my mother inside. Once inside, the manager's demeanor shifted noticeably. Despite our polite insistence that the sandwiches were cold, she continued to claim they had been properly heated. My mother, a proud Native American woman, softly reiterated that they were not. We again requested a refund and prepared to leave. At that moment, a gracious Black woman seated nearby approached and offered to pay for new sandwiches. Only then did the manager agree to issue a refund. I thanked the woman sincerely--her kindness and courage to speak up made a difference. There are four key takeaways from this experience: Sanitation matters -- Reheating returned food in a kitchen oven is unacceptable. Respect your regulars -- You never know who your loyal customers are or what they mean to your business. We will not return -- This experience was disappointing and disheartening. My mother summed it up best: "Son, remember to use a long-handled spoon with some folks." Gratitude to the woman who stood up -- Her empathy and action were powerful. She is a Queen. This was not just about cold sandwiches. It was about dignity, respect, and how people are treated. I hope this letter encourages reflection and change. Sincerely never going back.
