The food here is amazing and they have a very and welcoming friendly staff ! I had the Very Berry Waffles and an order of Catfish Bites. The Catfish Bites were seasoned to perfection and they were so good that I had to go back the next day for more. This is a very nice place to eat the food is great and they were very friendly and welcoming.

Great staff! Cameron gave the best intro of the entire menu. He was very kind and patient as the entire staff was! I was able to make my decision to get the waffle flight, which included the Loaded Baked Potato/ Maple Bacon /Buffalo chicken. Some of this didn't look eatable, but I was proved wrong once I tried my chosen ones! My ultimate favorite of my flight was the Buffalo Chicken, pickles n' all! My son had the birthday cake and he said it was the best ever! There are so many options, even if you didn't want a waffle, there are options for you!

Absolutely fantastic. I recently visited Waffle Cafe in Detroit, and I absolutely loved it! The waffles are theeee best I have ever had, and the service was outstanding. The strawberry cheesecake is outstanding. The lavender lemonade is insanely delicious. I Highly recommend Waffle Cafe for anyone looking for a great waffles and wifi.

I'm never disappointed here!! I've been here several times, and I have tried something new each time. They prepare everything to order, and it still arrives in a timely manner. The staff is truly great and friendly here. The food is absolutely delicious, and the music keeps pumping out the jams! I will definitely be back, again

I brought my niece to Waffle Cafe Detroit to celebrate her 13th birthday. I love the simplicity and welcoming decor. Ordering was easy using a kiosk to place our order and pay. The creativity of the menu was unique. The music playing was great. We enjoyed our meal. Definitely will be back!

Co-owner Larry and the staff are very professional, friendly & welcoming! The chicken & waffles are delicious and the lavender lemonade is a winner! (and they have quality carry-out containers, lol) Looking forward to trying more from the menu! Great for breakfast or brunch. Just wish the hours were longer.

It is such a great place to keep back and relax with a plate of sweet or savory waffles. They even have wraps that are made with the waffle batter and ice cream in waffle cones! I attended the soft opening and grand opening. Upon entry, you can place your order at a kiosk...very easy breezy. The staff is super friendly and very welcoming. They really breakdown the menu for you if you have any questions. If you are dining in, you can sit at a low or high top. This will definitely be one of my go-to spots I frequent often.

Left the Sabres vs. Red Wings game. Searched Google for Black owned restaurants nearby. BOOM! This was the first one with good ratings for me to say, "I could do with some breakfast right about now." ALWAYS order the Waffles 'n Flight. You will not regret it.
