Since it’s a WaHo, I’d immediately guess this photo is in Georgia.
Correct longitude! Ohio in actuality.
Ohio🗿
(Am I doing this gen z thing correctly?)

Not really anywhere. Statistically likely to be in the southeast, adjacent to a major highway.
Currently at Waffle House. It’s a waffle home. 🖤
Waffle House found its Host
The Waffle Hose Index for the uninitiated [Link] was a moderatly usefull (and humerous) idea thought up by the US Federal Emergency Managment Aganecy (FEMA) to determine the accessability of the area after a disaster.
It takes time to get to an area, even longer if the roads are damaged, so one of the first things to do is to try and call someone local. Waffle House happens to be open 24-7, and has an unusually comprehensive emergency preparedness policy. In a lot of cases they can run for days on a limited menu without power and running water. The only reasons they would not pick up the phone is that telecommunications were down (which FEMA would want to know anyway), that the staff cant get to the resturant (which is also usefull to know) or that the resturant is gone and Amaerica is down one of its finest off-hours eating establishments.
Fascinating and adding it to my haul of TIL!
Thank you very much!
Yo I’m going to Waffle House in like half an hour. I’m pumped. Haven’t been there in years.
pretty fucking solid hash browns from coast to coast.
The gulf coast? There’s certainly no Waffle Houses on the West Coast.
valid. damn.
Trust me I was just as devastated to find this out, myself
I always used to laugh at the scene in Best In Show where the yuppie couple talk about how they met at Starbucks. But they weren’t at the same Starbucks, they were at two different Starbucks across the street from each other.
During a trip to the Atlanta area, I saw so many Waffle House locations that I jokingly made a reference to that scene from Best In Show.
Then IT happened. Literally drove past a spot where there were 2 Waffle Houses across the street from each other. It was supposed to be a joke. Only a joke.
In New England you’ll find Dunkin Doughnuts across from each other.
The only place I know in Atlanta that has a waffle house across from another is in Avondale estates where the very first waffle house is located. It’s a museum now that is hardly ever open and across the street is a newer more modern waffle house. I bet you were over there lol.
I suppose it’s possible, but I don’t think that’s it.
The trip when this happened was 7+ years ago (pre-covid for sure), so I don’t recall the specific location, but it wasn’t in Atlanta proper. And I don’t recall either location looking like a museum or a location where anybody would put a museum, it was a stretch of road/highway with retail space / strip malls on both sides.
Now that is a skeleton crew, one employee.
Getting strong liminal vibes from this
a fighting arena, america
I’ve never been to one since I’ve never been to the south. How’s the food?
It’s not world class but sometimes it’s exactly what you need.
The food is diner food. Not bad for what you pay for it. Tastes amazing when drunk or high. It’s a staple in the Midwest and the South!
I would choose Waffle House over Denny’s, but would rather go to a regular non-chain diner over either of those.
I hope that makes sense because it was the best way I could think of to rank it
Yeah, I get that. We have a really good family-owned place that my boyfriend and I like to go to.
Is it good?? While that may depend on your buzz, take the word of two remarkable chefs, Sean Brock and Anthony Bourdain: https://youtu.be/qEpXeTDwbk8
I adore Waffle House, this scene is beautiful.
Double covered and chunked, baby.
Scattered well
Solid choice.
This is inaccurate… There isn’t any in NY
