Do fights actually break out at these things or is it a meme?

Explain like I'm a foreigner.

They're open pretty much all the time and don't close at night, so naturally drunks and other rowdy folk congregate there. Prime time for fights to break out over silly minor things, which often turn physical. There's a reason most restaurants shut their dining rooms down by midnight.

Do they also have like kebab/swarma places that are open 24/7? Where I live drunk people always seem to want to eat something like that.

Can't imagine getting drunk and thinks let's get a waffle.

You don't go to waffle House for waffles. The bloodhound gang didn't sing about waffles.

"Want you smothered, want you covered like waffle House hash browns"

Dunno about you but I've never not crashed hash browns while hammered

In New Jersey we have 24/7 diners. You can get breakfast or a burger, or whatever you want basically. Don't knock a 2 AM drunken pancake until you've tried it!

Oh they do all breakfast foods. Get bacon and eggs or some other fried something if you want.

Also, I'm the kinda person that gets drunk and eats waffles

No one starts shit around a kebab guy tho. They have seen it all and if you start a fight they will finish it for you.
