The chefs at Home of Chicken and Waffles sling southern soul dishes late into the evening within a retro '60s diner. The soul-fare menu is littered with hearty entrees named after members of the owners’ family, such as Angie's Delight, a pairing of one chicken breast and one waffle ($10.25), or Paige's Palette, a dish that plates two southern-fried chicken wings with an egg and a waffle ($9.95). Tuck into the meal of champions at any hour of the day with a selection of omelets, biscuits, and waffles. Diners can swan dive into the gravy-filled abyss of the Brother Darroll, an amalgam of two pieces of chicken prepared southern-style or smothered in gravy (+$0.50), with grits and a fluffy biscuit ($10.75) for sopping up a neighbor's syrup runoff.

Home of Chicken and Waffles’ 1960s-inspired walls are festooned with murals of menu items and an accompanying portrait of each dish's family-member namesake, all hand-painted by a local artist. Motown and soul classics pump through the sound system during the week, and gospel rings out from the speakers on Sunday mornings.
