This list has been in the making for several years. It originally began as a simple note on my phone, but over time, I felt the need to build something more structured and fair. What you see here is the early stage of that effort.
The current rankings and total scores are not up to date—they were carried over from the original version and are mainly here to preserve the initial order. Any photos currently included are stock images and not my own.
As I revisit each spot, I’ll be updating scores, notes, rankings, and photos to reflect a more consistent and thoughtful system.
This is a work in progress, and will continue to evolve over time.

Some of the Chicken and Waffles listed may appear to score on the lower side—but that’s only because we’re holding everything to an exceptionally high standard: the Honorary Number One Chicken and Waffles, also affectionately known as the Greatest of All Time, hailing from Cheddar’s. Cheddar’s didn’t just serve chicken and waffles—they asked, “What if we perfected both?” The result? A pairing so good, it may or may not have altered the fabric of the universe… or so the legends claim.
