    About two months ago, a Wffle House MBA decided they did not have to keep the lobby open at night. After late at night, you could only order pickup using a brain-dead web page. We stopped going there day or night. Also 100% staff turnover.

    Tonight, the newly hired server told me the lobby is now open 24x7. YEA!

    I often drive long distances at night and used Waffle House for reliable, biology beaks and hot food. Now I can use them again instead of the ‘pig in a poke’ truck stops.

    Their web page remains especially lame but it never made sense to park in their lot, do the web page, and pray you get what you wanted to order. Then poop on their sidewalk because the bathroom is locked inside! (Yes, it is a dirty job but someone has to do it!)

    And if there's any late night trouble you can be certain that waffle house employees never lose when fists start flying...

    In Huntsville AL, the night shift cops like to get a hot coffee and take a break at Waffle House.

    No where in the USA is free from some sort of threat. If nothing else, we lead the world in mass shooting outside of war zones.
