There's one in Dumfries/Montclair!!! 17137 Dumfries Road, Dumfries, VA. I loved Waffle House as a kid and will sometimes make the trek to Dumfries when the cravings call.

Yes. A once-sparkling jewel has now sadly lost its luster. Where gourmands would once gather to taste the finest offerings of the ihop chefs, holding their breath in anticipation of the culinary delights in store - roast patridge wings in a cloud of lovage; quail eggs drizzled with veal jus and ponzo essence; and sticky rice with caramelized champagne mango stand out for me - now vats of egg-inspired corn syrup mixtures are disgorged into warm troughs, ready for the snouts of the obese SUV-drivers fresh from their mega-churches and ready for some series carb-loading.

Sic transit gloria mundi....

I was just about to post this. IHOP has always sucked. Waffle House has always (and still is) just so good!

I think it depends on the IHOP franchise owner. Some are clean and well run. Others....well I would never, ever eat at the one in Columbia Heights. The one in Alexandria in a pinch, yes.

Waffle house is actual rat crap. Ihop is just kind of bad. But i have found ihop varies a lot between locations.

Both IHop and Waffle House are gross. Original Pancake House is decent. Otherwise give me a good diner anyday. Jersey girl here!

What makes a good diner? I could use one right now. Real maple syrup, milkshakes, hash browns, they have it all.

original pancake house.

The only time ihop is good is when you are wasted and 15

I will agree with you about Waffle House -- and I even waited tables at one & still liked it. Pecan waffles, those fabulous hashbrowns.

I thought McDonalds was great when I was under 24, OP.

Replace "Peppered" with "Diced" and that's me!
