What Cities Have The Most Waffle Houses In Georgia

Author Dub

What cities have the most Waffle Houses in Georgia? I’ve got the breakdown for you. It’s a given that Waffle House is pretty popular here in the CSRA. Don’t believe me? Try getting a table after 9 am on a Saturday or Sunday morning. There is a 98% chance you’ll be waiting for a little bit. Of course, you’ll do it because, well, it’s Waffle House.

In case you didn’t know, Waffle House was started right here in Georgia back in 1955. The Waffle House headquarters is still in Georgia. It’s up in Norcross. And Georgia boasts more Waffle House locations than any other state in the country. So, how many Waffle Houses are in Georgia? According to an article from ScrapeHero.com, we have 438 of them. The next closest state is Florida. But they only have 187.

North Carolina has 184 Waffle Houses and South Carolina has 171. As you can see Georgia has the most Waffle House locations, and it isn’t even close. But what Georgia cities have the most Waffle House locations? According to ScrapeHero.com, here’s how it breaks down.

  • Atlanta has 37 Waffle House locations
  • Marietta has 16 Waffle House locations
  • Augusta has 14 Waffle House locations

We did it y’all! We made the top three! No one can take that away from us! And even with 14 Waffle House locations, I’m betting there will still be a wait around 9 am on Saturday and Sunday.

By the way, did you know that the first Waffle House is now a museum that you can visit? Check out more info on it here. And if you’d like to check out the full article from ScrapeHero.com on the most Waffle Houses in Georgia, you can read it here.

What Are Our Favorite Fast Food Restaurants

What are our favorite fast food restaurants? We’ve all got a go to place that we hit up when we want food now and don’t feel like cooking. However, as a country, we have places we prefer more than others. What are those places? How did your favorite spot rank on the list? I’ve got all of the info for you.

The American Customer Service Index has come out with their annual list of top fast food places. They rank places based on certain factors like quality, speed, accuracy and how polite the staff is. The ACSI has been doing this list since 1994. One certain place has held the number one spot on the list for 9 years in a row. But they almost got knocked off this year. Which places ranked the highest? We’ll get to that in a minute.

First of all let me tell you what places were on the bottom of the list. The ACSI looks at 23 fast food restaurants. Their mostly places you can find all over the country. Allow me to preface this by saying, just because they’re at the bottom of this list, it doesn’t make them bad. I’ve had great service experiences at a lot of these places, at least some of the ones here in the CSRA. These are the spots at the bottom of the list.

  • McDonald’s
  • Taco Bell
  • Sonic
  • Jack In The Box
  • Wendys

I’m kind of surprised by this, but again remember, this list was done nationally. Before we see who topped the list, if you want to check out the full article from the American Customer Service Index, just click here.

These are our favorite fast food restaurants, according to the ACSI.

  • Chik fil-A

    For the 9th year in a row Chik-fil-A topped the list with a score of 85 out of 100. Does that surprise anyone? You pretty much know what you’re getting when you go to Chik-fil-A, whether its here in the CSRA or across the country. The food and the service is top notch.

  • Jimmy Johns

    Right behind Chik-fil-A was Jimmy Johns. They scored an 84 out of 100. See what I mean when I said earlier that the top spot almost got over taken? I love Jimmy Johns, and I have to admit, the service there is really good.

  • KFC

    This one surprises me a little. I mean the food is usually good at KFC, but the service is kind of hit and miss, at least at the ones I’ve been too recently. They scored an 81 out of 100.

  • Papa Johns

    Another one where the food is good, but the service is hit and miss sometimes. Again this is a national study, so there must be some locations across the country picking up the slack. They scored an 80 out of 100.

  • Domino's

    Honestly, I haven’t been to a Domino’s in so long that I can’t really speak on them. I can’t tell you what the food or service is like lately. I can tell you that they scored a 78 out of 100.

  • Five Guys

    The burgers are great and the service has always been pretty good. They’re a little pricey for me, but still good. They scored a 78 out of 100.

  • Pizza Hut

    I hate to keep coming back to it, but this one is another one thats hit and miss for me. Sometimes I get Pizza Hut and the pizza is good, and sometimes its ehhhh. I can say the same for the service. They scored a 78 out of 100

  • Starbucks

    This is another one that I can’t really speak on because I don’t really go there, but based on the lines I see outside all of their locations here in the CSRA, they’re doing just fine. Starbucks scored a 78 out of 100

  • Arby's

    They have the meats! I mean I wouldn’t know, I can’t tell you the last time I went to an Arby’s, but when I do, the food has usually been pretty good. They scored a 77 out of 100.

  • Dunkin'

    Now this one I can speak on! Whether its my wife or me, we’re at Dunkin’ at least once every weekend. The coffee is usually on point and so are the breakfast sandwiches. The donuts they can be a little hit or miss. Dunkin’ scored a 77 out of 100.
