Let's settle this once and for all!
My vote goes to Waffle House. If you have ever been to Waffle House and value the essence of human life, you too will vote for Waffle House.
Up close and personal customer service, with friendly, entertaining, and enticing conversations from the greatest individuals that have graced this planet.
Warm and inviting atmosphere with Waffle House tunes on the jukebox.
Delicious, well priced meals for any occasion that warm the heart and soul.
IHOP--- shitty prices, Leno-y food, Leno-y service, Leno-y environment... just Leno-y all around.

My 1st Waffle House experience was in college when I visited some friends down in North Carolina and they couldn't wait to take me there. I was rendered speechless, it was that amazing, and after that I never looked back.
IHOP makes me think more of an all breakfast Cracker Barrel than a Waffle House though. Or maybe a Swenson's? Do they still have Swenson's? My family used to go there all the time when I was a kid, that place was the bomb!
Anyways, when I want a "Waffle House-like" anytime breakfast from a chain up here, I'm WAY more likely to choose a Friendly's than an IHOP

Anybody have hometown diners that they prefer to Waffle House? Pete's Coffee Shop in Knoxville rocks WF's socks off. The XXX in W. Lafayette, IN is pretty bad-ass also.
Waffle House wins for me - we (against our better judgment) went to IHOP a few weeks ago after the bar - Bamabelle and Chico were with us - we should have gone to Waffle House....

Have any of you ever actually HAD a waffle? We went on our way down last year and it was AWFUL. Ridiculously terrible. I'm pretty sure that they actually serve Eggos. And the service was worse!!!
I understand that you can't judge a chain based on a single experience and I would tend to agree if it was just the service but I have to imagine that all of their waffles are similar in style: yellow and thin with little tiny crannies?
That said, I'm not a huge fan of IHOP either. I do love their butter pecan syrup, though. Still, so much better than Waffle House.

I've never known anyone that actually eats waffles at Waffle House. I've had them before and they were delicious, but that's also because I had made my own coffee-syrup to pour over them. The other time I had waffles I convinced them to throw M&Ms in the batter before cooking them. Both times were some of the best waffles I've ever had.
There are no IHOPs where I live so Ive only had them when ive been on road trips or whatnot but from what ive had they blow Waffle House out of the water, although that wouldnt be hard since Waffle House is easily the worst breakfast chain out there. Ive never once tried anything at Waffle House that I found remotely good. So I have to cast my vote for IHOP, it baffles my mind that Waffle House is crushing IHOP right now, maybe its just because ive only eaten there a few times but I cant possibly imagine it ever being worse then Waffle House.
Okay, so around Christmas 2007, my buddy Phil and I embarked on a cross-country bus trip that was supposed to go from Boston to Denver, but long story short, we ended up getting re-routed through the South. Well, every five minutes we'd pass a different Waffle House on the highway, a completely foreign chain to us northern-bred folk (I'd never been to the South except for Key West and parts of northern Virginia, and Phil hadn't been at all). Unfortunately, there were never any Waffle Houses near our bus stops, so we didn't get to eat at the Holy Grail of breakfast establishments. But, six months later, I was back in the South again for my first Roo, tried my first Waffle House meal, and never looked back.
Hell - I'm just a post-whore and I've been around for awhile -
AND - who the hell orders waffles at waffle house???
It's all about the hashbrowns (scattered, smothered and covered)
I always get a waffle because I get the All Star Special.
but technically - that is not ordering a waffle - it comes as a package deal - I don't think I have ever known anyone to go in to a Waffle House, sit down and order just a waffle
