What our guests are saying
We were in Tacoma for a tournament and needed to kill some time and we’re hungry. My brother loves chicken n waffles and he found this place. And let me tell you it was delicious!! Definitely worth coming here. The chicken was greatly seasoned and had the perfect crunch. The waffle had the perfect amount of crunch and softness. Combined, it was just perfect!! Top it with the syrup and chef's kiss! Will definitely be coming back when we’re in the area. The portion is great too! Overall definitely recommend.

My daughter wanted chicken and waffles. I saw this place and was intrigued by their variety of waffle flavors. My daughter got the chocolate chip waffles with chicken and I got the banana cream pie waffles with chicken. OMG! These were DELICIOUS! The chicken is moist and the breading is wonderfully seasoned and crispy. The waffles are delicious and the banana cream topping was perfect! My daughter loved her meal too. We will definitely be back!

After watching many fun social media posts, we finally made it into Tacoma to try the food. Yum! Yum!! Yum!!! The seasoning on the fries is divine. I ordered the two piece, hand-breaded chicken strips. Husband ordered the original chicken sandwich. Both with Buddy's Sauce. Hot, crispy, delicious. I also appreciated the local art on display. And the humor on the hand written signs. Will return the next time we escape the Kitsap Peninsula again.
