More Than Waffles

The food at More Than Waffles always hits that sweet spot like a warm, feel good, almost homemade breakfast hug. I ordered the lox and eggs scramble with home fries, which, by the way, I absolutely must dip in ranch. I’ve been doing that since I was a kid call it weird, call it nostalgic, but mostly, just call it delicious. The fries are cooked to crispy perfection with just the right amount of seasoning not too salty, not too bland, just that Goldilocks level of “mmm.” My wife got the classic bacon and eggs plate with a side of home fries, because apparently, we are a fry family. The kids? They split my bagel (thanks, kids) and stole some of my fries, because of course they did. You know how kids are they act like Michelin critics in tiny sneakers. Now, a quick heads up: the wait here can be no joke. Depending on when you show up, you could be looking at a 30-minute wait… or you might have time to finish a podcast, do a crossword, and start questioning your life decisions. But honestly? It’s totally worth it. Once you’re seated, the servers are super friendly, attentive, and just overall good vibes. Ask and ye shall receive coffee refills, napkins, possibly even emotional support if your kid spills the juice. The place has a cozy, retro 80s breakfast diner feel which for me, as an 80s baby, feels like home. Nostalgia with a side of hash browns. It’s warm, welcoming, and full of regulars who know what’s up. If you’re in the mood for a solid, satisfying, lovingly made breakfast, More Than Waffles is your spot. I’ll definitely be back. And next time, I’m ordering extra fries… and hiding them from the kids.
