About Us

Family Values, Community Roots, and True Scratch Cooking

Bobbi and Jeff, founders of Water Street Waffle Company, launched their concept in Texas before expanding to Connecticut. Influenced by Southern cuisine and New England flavors, they relocated to be closer to their son and daughter-in-law stationed with the U.S. Navy in Groton.

Their vision is simple: create a family-centered restaurant where guests feel at home and every dish is made with intention. Our New London location stays true to the original Texas roots with a full scratch kitchen. Every batter, dressing, mix, and sausage is made in-house, reinforcing our reputation as a local breakfast spot in New London CT that prioritizes quality, care, and consistency.

What our Guests are Saying

Our waiter R.J. was awesome. Very pleasant & listened to this old lady, me, ramble. LoL. The food was well worth the price. Highly recomend the food. Can’t wait to come back to try something else.

Our server, Donna, was fantastic! I ordered the Italian Avocado toast, and it was fresh and delicious! My husband ordered the breakfast platter and got the bourbon bacon. So many delicious choices on the menu, we’ll definitely be back!

Annette S.

This place has become a favorite of ours lately. My go to is the biscuits and gravy (with real sausage gravy) or the carnivore skillet! I also highly recommend the fresh squeezed orange juice. The waiters/waitresses here are very friendly and helpful.
