Waffle House

9/07/2020 (Tuesday) - My brother lives in Georgia. He had business appointment in Columbus. His drive took 8 hours to Columbus. He has always loved Waffle House so he decided among all other restaurants Columbus, MS offers, he chose the Waffle House, 45 North Columbus. He posted this on facebook: I went to the Waffle House when I was in Columbus and the short waitress appeared to have a negative attitude on white people based on observation on service to customers. I arrived about 1:45pm , have an appointment at 2:30pm in Columbus. Place was not busy. There motto is "Good food fast" HAH !. It took almost 10 minutes to get waited on, did not bring my drink, 10 more minutes went by and the waitress asked me what I wanted to drink and brought it. She then placed my order, 15 more minutes went by and I finally received my order. Had 10 minutes to eat and run. I was a customer at the old Waffle House that was in business across Highway 45 North, but it was closed and moved directly across the highway. I have been a customer for nearly 9 years with no problems. I will no longer be such and take my business elsewhere. Now, I am his sister that lives in Columbus, MS. I took my grandson one morning to eat there and he was so excited. They were not busy whatsoever when we entered. The employees huddled around talking and did not even acknowledge they had two customers. My grandson and I waited....and waited...and waited, for someone, anyone to come over and at least take our drink order first. No one came and I realized we were white, they were black..I felt as if there was an issue here. I told my grandson we are leaving and would go to Huddle House. As we were leaving I did say very loudly so the Waffle House people would hear me, "come on grandson, let's go to Huddle House and get us some wonderful breakfast." (I am sure the employees at the Columbus, 45 North Waffle House could have cared less that we left, lazy people).
