Absolutely incredible meal! Eggs poached to perfection and the salmon and hollandaise sauce was top notch perfection. The waffles were good and a great addiction to a great meal. My partner had the veggie breakfast on waffles and was very pleased with what she got. 10/10 for the waffle house

I absolutely love Waffle House!!! I have been going to the St Albans branch for almost 2 decades, but last year the Harpenden branch opened and exceeded my expectations. The food is delicious, the service is amazing and the ambiance in the restaurant is perfect. Phil (manager in Harpenden) and his team are truly amazing!!! I believe Kieran was one of our waiters, unfortunately I did not get the names of any of the other very ! I cannot count how many times I have been to the Harpenden branch since its opening last year (yes, it has been that MANY times 😊). On 30 December 2024 a group of about 20 of us attended the Harpenden branch – yes, we were able to make a reservation, they were ready for us at our allocated time, our orders were taken promptly and we did not have to wait very long for our food to come out despite the restaurant being full!!! To top it off, the meals for circa 20 people were brought out roughly around the same time. What was most impressive was how seriously they took allergies! There was someone with a nut allergy (and a few other allergies), she said their allergen menu was the most impressive she’d seen (easy to understand and very clear). Due to the allergies declared, the manager came to speak to the young lady and provided reassurance on how her meal would be prepared to ensure there was no cross contamination. Waffle house is one of my favourite places and I would have no hesitation in recommending it!
Bringing waffles to a new level, really great food. The Elderflower Cooler drink was tasty however a bit sweet. The fried chicken waffle was delicious, with a crispy coating and flavourful sauce. I was pleasantly surprised with how light the waffles are, they accompanied the dish well. For dessert I had the Banana Flapjack flavour, which really did taste of flapjack! All round a lovely option with a relaxed atmosphere, would certainly recommend.
5 stars all day long. Greeted and welcomed by friendly staff. The ambience, decor and surrounds were stunning. Food was absolutely fresh and tasty. Service was on point. We felt very welcomed and comfortable. Highly recommended and a must visit. Well done to the Waffle house.
