Waffle Way closed after 37 years in business.

The details

The restaurant opened in Grapevine in 1987. Waffle Way served breakfast options like waffles, hot cakes and omelets and also offered lunch items such as hot beef sandwiches, patty melts, a chef's salad and Frito chili pie.

Owner Natasha Hawkins-Thompson announced the restaurant was closing in a Facebook post Oct. 1. She cited the rise of operation costs and dwindling business traffic as the reasons for closing the restaurant.
