Who Are We?
In 1955, two Georgia neighbors opened up a restaurant that would change the world. That first restaurant led to the Waffle House brand you see today. As the business expanded throughout Georgia and the Southeast, the “Yellow Sign” soon became a familiar landmark, signifying America’s Place to Eat™ and America’s Place to Work™. Today, the Waffle House system has more than 1,900 locations in 25 states, reaching as far north as Pennsylvania and as far west as Arizona. All open 24-hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Our workforce can be broken into two categories – Operations (Restaurant Associates and Managers) and Support Team (Corporate Office Associates, Field Recruiters, and Maintenance Technicians).
We are a strong, growing company dedicated to our Customers and Associates. We would love to have you on our team! To learn more about the Waffle House culture and our great community of employees and customers, please visit www.wafflehouse.com!
