On the Hunt for Chicken & Waffles in Tallahassee?

Chicken and waffles is one of those combinations that sounds a little strange until you try it. Crispy, salty fried chicken paired with a warm waffle and sweet maple syrup just works — especially when you’re hungry enough for a serious breakfast or brunch.

And you don’t have to leave Tallahassee to find it. Several restaurants around town serve chicken and waffles, ranging from classic diner-style versions to biscuits, brunch plates and Southern-inspired takes on the dish.
