The Original Waffle Shop North

Great place! The Orange Juice was the best. I just wanted to sit, do a little homework, and get some breakfast. I got that, plus great service, and great food.

My server, Lisa W. was awesome. She was attentive and available, but that wasn't the only thing I noticed about her.

I watched as she interacted with an elderly gentleman who was dinning alone. She displayed great caring and attention to the gentleman. When taking his order, she repeated it back to him, and more importantly, when she brought his food, she explained it back to him. This was exceptionally good service because I don't think most servers would have had the awareness of the customer's needs, or compassion to deal with this customer. Her attention to him put him at ease, making him comfortable and me even more so.

Great job Lisa W.!!! Your effort didn't go unnoticed!

A favorite breakfast spot! Portion's are great, food is so good and service is always friendly! The egg white omelet and home fries with a side of corn beef hash was amazing. I was able to share the side of hash!

My first experience here and WOW!
The staff were so kind and prompt.
Hands down the best waffle I’ve ever had. Home fries are hard to master but they did that too! Also the hot chocolate is an experience in itself - 10/10

I was there a day or two ago. For the first time. I have been missing out on so much. I loved this place. It had exceeded my expectations. I had an omelet and It was great. As was our server and the cleanliness of the establishment.

Huge all-day breakfast menu with a handful of burgers and sandwiches if you want lunch, and everything is very reasonably-priced. The veggie harvest omelette was delicious and not a gigantic portion either. The home fries were very tasty, a sort of crispy on the outside, smooth on the inside concoction. The pancakes were about average, nothing special, but the waffle was outstanding, very fluffy and sweet. Excellent, prompt service, too.

Orange juice was amazing and is fresh squeezed. Dinner vibes, prompt service and great food.

Great service.
Manager or owner i assume keeps the place immaculate.
Food was top notch.
Bacon was excellent quality. Eggs cooked to 👌. Waffle was the best I've had anywhere.
Even the steak was good which surprised me.
Sausage was very fine grained and very tasty.
Perfect breakfast place.

All the classics, prepared beautifully and served by friendly, efficient folks. Every time I've visited, we've been seated immediately, but judging from the size of the hallway leading to the hostess station, they probably get appropriately busy at peak times. Oh - adding a mention of one of my daughter's favorite things that she shared with us - ordering a blueberry muffin, and asking for it sliced and grilled. It is sublime - pictures are attached.

Best state college breakfast. On the weekends there’s definitely going to be a wait. Around 15-20 minutes once it’s out the door. But food comes out pretty quick and it’s worth it.

Steak and eggs: good, and very basic. Big fan of the potatoes which were creamy & delicious!

Chocolate chip waffle: I love how “fluffy” it is. Best waffle I’ve ever had!

Definitely recommend

I might be biased, but I prefer this location than the other. I loved the taste of food and ambience. Enjoyed my breakfast with family, and there was no waiting time. I took the Fresh OJ, man I loved it! Strongly recommended, Naked egg or this waffle shop.

We waited a bit to be seated (which was expected for a Sunday morning of THON weekend) after we were seated we were immediately waited on and service was great! The portions were full and great, prices were good— everything was wonderful! The staff here is great and courteous given how packed it usually is.

Really busy on a Sunday morning, but handled with elite efficiency. We had an apple cinnamon waffle, and two mini platters. Great way to start the day!

One of my must-haves on any visit back to State College. The line is always long, but the wait is surprisingly short. Get the home fries - you wont be disappointed. The coffee is excellent, and the service is always great. If you eat at one place in State College, let this be the place. Your only regret will be that you cant eat there regularly.

I have to say that my favorite cuisine is the strawberry waffle with extra cream and it’s actually my top one and I definitely ordered them every time I went to the waffle shop! really recommend this and omelettes as well.

First time here.Very pleasant atmosphere and staff.Food was awesome and plenty of it.Will not be our last.

Delicious. Just delicious. We went on a weekday, so we didn't have to wait. I've heard it gets busy on the weekend. I can understand why. Phenomenal food and friendly staff.

Definitely one of the best breakfast places. I think I must admit that I have had the best omelette I ever had in the US. (Tex Mex Omelette)
Their pancakes and English muffin are delicious sides.

I thought this place was a waffle place specifically. Imagine now my joy when I found out it was a diner. I like diners rather a lot. This place did not disappoint. It was one of the first places we visited on moving here and we fully enjoyed it. It was exactly what it needed to be and nothing else. Just spot on Americana at its best.

Yes the waffle was so good.
The Omelette is the same.
Stop in, might be a wait but worth it.

We live in NJ and every time we come this place is a must!!!! Amazing service everytime and don’t get me started with the food, if you haven’t been here already this is your sign to go!
