Waco Waffle Co

Waco Waffle Co sits on Halbert Lane just a few blocks from the Brazos River and the historic downtown of Waco, Texas. The bright, family‑run eatery, founded by brothers‑in‑law SLou Stein and Jack Schaevitz, welcomes guests from 7:30 am to 2:30 pm Monday through Thursday and extends service on Fridays and Saturdays with an evening shift from 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Their menu centers on fluffy, golden‑browned waffles that can be customized with a long list of sweet add‑ons—fresh strawberries, ripe peaches, banana slices, Nutella, chocolate chips, peanut butter, and a dollop of whipped cream—plus savory toppings such as a fried egg, crispy fried chicken, turkey bacon, cheddar or provolone cheese, sliced turkey, feta, and jalapeños. Signature plates include “The Webster,” a hearty waffle topped with smoked brisket and melted cheese, the Brisket Grilled Cheese Sandwich, and a classic Breakfast Sandwich built on a warm waffle base. Complementary beverages range from iced and hot coffee to chocolate milk, orange juice, kombucha, and water, while dessert lovers can finish with house‑made ice cream, a waffle cone, or the seasonal “Local Flavor” scoop. The interior blends reclaimed wood tables, pastel‑colored walls, and vintage Waco photographs, creating a relaxed yet lively brunch atmosphere that feels both modern and hometown. Free Wi‑Fi and a small outdoor patio give commuters and families alike a comfortable spot to work or linger. With a price range of $3 to $10 for most items, the restaurant offers affordable comfort food without compromising quality. Whether you’re a local craving a quick bite or a traveler exploring the Baylor University campus, Waco Waffle Co delivers a memorable Texas‑style breakfast experience.
