Finally got around to trying this place.

It was about 4pm and no one was there.

Ordered the Chicken Waffle, street fries and a Black Cherry cane sugar soda.

The waffle was okay... it didn't have cole slaw on it like the others I've tried, had lettuce and tomato. I would get whatever sauce they put on it on the side next time. It also taste better with maple syrup. It's more like Bruxies than Iron Press (I prefer Iron Press).

The sodas are also refillable (unlike Bruxies). Didn't get a chance to try any of the sweet waffles (kids weren't there) but I like that they server McConnell's ice cream (if you've been to Santa Barbara, you are probably familiar with it).

It's a bit concerning that there was no line out the door like Bruxies but I would give it a try if you like waffle sandwiches. Next time will try either the pulled pork or burger.

Sorry... I forgot to take pictures... but here's the Yelp info and Yelp picture:

I wonder how long this place stays open. Every time I get takeout from my wife at pho so 1 this place is pretty much empty.

Me too... I've never seen this place have more than 2 different groups of customers.

Good ice cream though.

I rather wait for a table, than go to a restaurant with empty tables.

Qwervoyant called it!

Gaufree in Irvine is no more. Buh-bye Bruxie's out-of-state operation, as well.
