Even if there is a line to get in, it moves fast and it's worth the wait. The portions are good sized and the options for breakfast food is nice. Ask for the homefries well done - you won't be sorry. Highly recommend this place!

Love, love, love Waffle Shop!' A favorite for breakfast! Belgium Waffles are to die for! Get there before 9am or be prepared to wait on line! Only complaint is that the booths are not comfortable! But that's ok!!

Top to bottom, a tremendous restaurant experience (for what it is). Even if the line is long at the door, it moves quickly. Food is predictably good, as is the service. It's clean, tidy, and efficient. (I do wish they wouldn't fill my coffee cup when I look away because it messes with my perfect sugar and cream mixture. There... More

Nothing to dislike. Prepare for a little bit of a wait, great food makes for a little bit of a line. Worth the wait. there were 5 of us, and all great meals. Best Omelette anywhere. You have to try the French toast also.

Line out the door? No problem, your wait won't be long. This place gives a whole new meaning to the word efficiency. And food is tasty and dependable. Highly recommended.

Another wonderful breakfast in State College! After our college graduation weekend, our famliy visited the Waffle Shop and enjoyed a great breakfast before our trip back home. Every town should have a Waffle Shop!

Good service, smiles and quick. Clean and food presentation is good. However, the "popular" breakfast with eggs left some to be desired. Salty, greasy, just one wretched slice of orange on the otherwise 1000 cal plate. Not awful, just extremely average.

Food is good, and hot. Service quick. "Specials" offer very good value, but there are no waffle specials! Go figure.

Always wanted to try this when I was in town, but the long lines would scare me away. Finally, my college student son wanted to go there and we waited (and waited) in line. Ordered breakfast food - home fries are really good and my wife's blueberry pancakes were excellent. Service was prompt, friendly and we got our food quickly.... More

We were there on the Friday before the Blue and White PSU game. We were there about 10am. The place was crowded but we didn't have to wait for a seat. There were people waiting when we left. Mainly a breakfast place. It has many choices. Prices are excellent for the portions. I had two eggs and asked for blueberry... More
