Editor’s Note: Since the publication of this article, Waffle-It has permanently closed.
It is often said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also arguably the most delicious. Bacon, eggs, toast, and pancakes are all breakfast staples. But we can’t forget about waffles. Many of us use the frozen variety for a quick breakfast, but there’s one restaurant in Minnesota that’ll help you put that habit to rest. This place serves fresh waffles with unique and flavorful toppings. It’s basically a breakfast lover’s dream. Take a look:
Waffle-It is a newcomer to the St. Cloud restaurant scene. It opened up in a bustling shopping area in December of 2016. You'll find the restaurant at 2104 Veterans Drive in St. Cloud.
From the outside, this little spot might not look like anything out of the ordinary. Since this photo was taken, the restaurant's new sign has added some curb appeal.
The menu at Waffle-It is full of unique offerings, including both savory and sweet options. If you're in for lunch, the Pork and Waffles might be for you. Barbecued pulled pork atop a cornbread waffle? Yum!
The restaurant also serves up delicious breakfast sandwiches. Nestled between two mini waffles, you can order chicken, pulled pork, bacon, or ham. Each is baked together with cheese to create an unbeatable combination.
Of course, Waffle-It has many other options, too. On the sweet side of things, you'll find unique creations like Cookies and Milk or PB&J waffles. They also have blueberry and chocolate chip if you're looking for a classic.
Once you choose your perfect waffle, your job isn't over yet. It's now time to choose a syrup! Luckily, Waffle-It has you covered. The lineup includes boysenberry, pecan, classic maple, and more. You can pick your favorite or try all of them.
