DID YOU KNOW...?
Waffle House, the *iconic* American restaurant chain with over 1,900 locations in 25 U.S. states, has its headquarters right here in Norcross, Georgia! Many of its locations are spread across the country, but we're proud to say that this regional cultural staple calls our city (and the greater Atlanta area) its scattered, smothered, covered home!
