I feel like 10-15 years ago Waffle House was a really decent greasy spoon diner for the money. I remember being able to get an all star special for five bucks. I just looked it up and they're wanting $13-14 now.....

IHOP still claims $6 a plate, but I haven’t hit a low enough level to go find out.

You'll get the plate for $6, but anything on it is extra.

I went recently and the eggs were the only decent part. Waffle was worse than literally any hotel lobby. Bacon tasted like the cheapest, budget Walmart shit. More porky than bacony and not in a good way, if that's even possible. Toast would've been fine except they fail my nigh-scientifically reliable diner/family restaurant test:

  • Do they serve Coke or fake shit?

  • Do they provide real butter or fake shit?

If they don't have enough pride in their restaurant to do those two things, your best-case is now mediocre. Leave! You're better than Pepsi and margarine, friends.

Coke is the fake shit, I'm not stanning pepsi, but fuck the assholes at coke for assuming they own the planet.

I'm not saying "I love the Coca-Cola Corporation and all its actions." Just that Pepsi tastes like sadness.

I don't know if it's still tru, but they used to be the number one steak restaurant in the country because their streaks were so cheap.
