To me, Waffle House is the perfect diner.

The all star special: eggs over easy, hashbrowns covered, white toast, sausage patties, and a plain waffle is my go to order; with continuous refills of their house coffee of course.

Sometimes I wish we had them up here but it makes going back to the south feel more special.

Tibbett Diner in the Bronx is the real deal! Very classic diner feel, right down to the guy at the front desk shouting names and the sweet waitresses who will give you great menu recs and a bowl of 15 butters and 10 syrups to go with your pancakes.

A nostalgic fave of mine is Cozy’s Soup n Burger near Astor Place. I’ve enjoyed many late night waffles there after long nights out in the East village.
