They must feel the pain. Urbanites with thick rimmed glasses will not be flocking to CB. It’s families, working class people, and old people. Not exactly a woke market segment.

Waffle House > Bob Evans > IHOP > Cracker barrel

It's been 3+yrs since I've been with no intent to go back.

Last time I was there, we waited for over an hour after we ordered. Finally was mad enough that we got up and left.

I can’t “not go there” any more than I already don’t

I tasted the food once and have been boycotting it ever since.

So…buy shite owned by them but under a different name?

That’s what a lot of the low IQ in the boycott Bud Light movement did. Went to drinking Mich Ultra…owned by the same woke company.

They aren’t going woke to grow their business. They are going woke to indoctrinate their customers in spite of losing business.

Punishment should be bankruptcy.

Continue to not patronize them because their product sucks?

Not that it’s going to be much of a sacrifice, but I have no intention of eating there

Got a hotel by one on a cross-country trip over a year ago. No alcohol, two kids and two adults. The food was meh and not cheap (we had just missed the early-bird special). Service was crap too. I used to stop and get audiobooks on CD. But haven’t done that in about 20 years (all Libby, Hoopla and Amazon Music monthly freebie now).


Plus my boys just fought over the triangle golf-tee “game” and wanted a bunch of shite in the general store. No thanks.

I would rather boycott them...which I am. Because their food has absolutely sucked 3 out of the last 3 times I have been there. They use to have a kick arse country fried chicken with gravy, and it's absolutely terrible. Even my wife thinks they suck too and she was a loyal customer of theirs.

There was no organized boycott of Bud Light. Guys just didnt want to be seen with "queer beer" by their buddies.

Waffle House

Guilty pleasure. I cannot bring myself to quit them, even at 02:30 in neighborhoods I would typically avoid at all costs.

The omelets and hashbrowns are sublime.

I go for the great Mom’s or Pop’s Farmhouse breakfast! I’ll make 4—5 trips a year. I’ll have to see what the local one does with it’s decor and make my decision to ease over to Waffle Houe or INOP then.
