Why are Waffle Houses so violent?

Had the best biscuits and gravy of my life at a Waffle House in Biloxi, Mississippi. No fights. Just artery clogging goodness.

Never been a fan. I used to call on the two owners. They were real characters and loyal customers, so we would eat there occasionally. My son is a huge fan. It is the hangover food joint for college kids, just like Denny's with their Grand Slam Breakfast was for my generation. The old crowd around here loves Waffle House coffee.

Their cheeseburgers are my go to when I am there.

But can you deflect and Ninja-catch a flying chair with one hand?
 
I’ve been to a few Waffle Houses. Good basic breakfast. I think any 24hr place after 2:00 AM is open to some craziness.

Back in the day, nothing better than a hearty breakfast after closing hours. Now, just looking for a bloody mary and chicken fried steak and eggs at 11:00AM. Waffle House is thus out.

I dunno. Sheri's and Denny's seem to operate without issue at 3 am in my neck of the woods. Maybe they suck and nobody goes to them vs Waffle House? Can't recall the last time I ate at any kind of place like that.

Hoots was the bomb. Loved that place. Was eating breakfast at 2 am with my dorm mates freshman year, one of whom was Ron Burns, a 7 foot freshman center. He dined and dashed with the other idiots while I was in the bathroom displacing 20 beers. They thought it was hilarious. I came out and the owner sat me down and asked if Ron was the dumbest son of a bitch in the world to try and dine and dash while being 7 foot tall. He made me pay for everyone and let me go. I made them all pay me with a penalty of $1.00 added on for my trouble.

Used to go to the Pad, Hoots and Duffy's. All went broke after I left.

Ron was a great symbol of the poor quality of Oregon basketball at that time hard to believe he was ever considered a DI player. If I ever found myself in Hoots it has been a rough night, so of course I found myself in there often.

Jim Gaffigan said it best "I like Waffle House, maybe because watching a grown man smoke a cigarette while making an egg reminds me of my dad".

Dairy mart is pretty damn good, especially for fast food! I just looked it up, it isn't in Washington so you fuskies have missed out.

I have never been to a Waffle House.

I worked at Reed College for a summer when I was in HS and used to stop by the Hot Cake House. Probably the best breakfast I’ve ever had.

Beth’s in Seattle is overrated.

Portage Bay is very good

5 spot is elite

Mecca Cafe also elite

No fights, though….

Nobody ever said Beth's food was good.

One patronizes Beth's to see line cooks prepare breakfast while drunk, high as a kite or on an acid trip.

Anyone in PDX remember Quality Pie? Only went there one time- back in 92 when I took my brother after his daughter was born. Outstanding breakfast IIRC but not the cleanest place.
