    Waffle House isn’t too bad. Even Anthony Bourdain enjoyed it. If I don’t get tacos when I’m up at 3am (we’ve got an amazing 24 hour taco stand about 10 minutes from me and the tacos are all $3 or less) I’ve been known to stop in and get my drunk ass scattered, smothered, covered, and chunked. It ain’t the best food in the world, but it definitely hits that little happy button in my brain.

    Cracker barrel wishes they were waffle house.

      Oh, I wasn’t even talking about the food, just the servers trying to make money. At least Waffle House has a good amount of people going through it, but nobody seems to remember Cracker Barrel existed before now so I assume it’s much slower/fewer tips.

        I wasn’t clear. Part of the reason no one remembers Cracker Barrel is that the food is pretty bleh. A few things are incredibly bad. Anything that is kind of ok is outshined by waffle house.

        But yeah, being a server there has to suck.

          Oh, totally unsurprising, I don’t think Waffle House is a “good” corporation by comparison, just better than working somewhere that’s slow AF. Back in the day (90’s/00’s) Cracker Barrel also got shit for refusing to hire gay people.
