We dove headfirst into the menu and came up with two absolute winners—you can’t go wrong here! We tried two totally different, but equally incredible, sandwiches:The BBQ Bird: This is BBQ done right. The sandwich is stacked high with tender, smoky pulled rotisserie chicken, house made BBQ sauce and beautifully balanced with refreshing coleslaw and some tart pickles. It’s classic comfort food perfection. The Southern Sandwich: If you like bold flavor and a little heat, get this! It features a perfectly cooked fried chicken thigh topped with a generous dollop of their famous Pimento Cheese on a toasted bun. A fair warning: that pimento cheese brings a serious, delicious spicy kick! Each sandwich came with a choice of side. The sides were just as memorable as the main event. The Homestyle Mac and Cheese was pure comfort in a bowl. This mac is the definition of gooey, cheesy goodness, elevated by being oven-baked for that perfect finish. Shoestring Fries: These are slim, crunchy works of art with the perfect amount of crisp. While you might have to ask for a bottle of ketchup, you won’t need it because we kept dipping them in the side of house-made BBQ sauce that came with the BBQ Bird. Only regret was that there wasn’t a flight of house made sauces to sample the rest of the offerings.
Verdict: Waldo’s is a must-visit for satisfying, high-quality chicken and sides. We left happy and already planning our next trip back! Highly recommend!

Awesome service, and Good atmosphere. I ordered the Chicken Club sandwich which had a hint of sweet and spicy. “Just a Hint”

Food was great. I had the O. G Chicken Sandwich meal with greens as my side and the fruit tea. Music choice was excellent and so was the service at the bar. I look forward to telling my friends about this and returning. Such a hidden gem!

Stopped by Waldo’s Chicken & Beer and it delivered.
The fried chicken was crispy and juicy, done right. The mac and cheese was creamy and comforting, and the corn biscuits were a sleeper hit. Soft, slightly sweet, and easy to keep grabbing. The wings were on point with good flavor and a solid cook.
Service was excellent. Super chill, friendly, and quick without rushing you. Just an easygoing place that knows how to execute. Definitely coming back.

I mean, I think I’ve been waiting for this type of place and quality of food to come to the area. ❤️ I ordered the tenders fries and onion rings to go and the staff who took my call was so kind and the food was ready in 10 minutes after I called! Food was seasoned and so good. Tenders have a baby kick to it and it’s so good!

When I expressed to the afternoon/evening manager Carolyn that hair nets should be warm by all staff handling food she was dismissive and seemed annoyed as I addressed my concern. My chicken was not done and when I spoke up they fixed the problem immediately. Eric the bartender was great I will only return for beverages if he’s there

I have been to this location two times. Yesterday, the service to order was very slow. It was not busy but it took 3 staff to figure out how to take an order. The line behind me was only a few people but they left because it was taking too long. The tenders tasted better this time. I got a biscuit and the potato wedges as my sides with the six tender meal. It says a biscuit is part of the meal on the menu but the cashier said it does not come with a biscuit. The biscuit was more like a muffin and it is small, I do not think only one biscuit should count as a side due to its size. The biscuit tasted sweet even though it did have some cheese in it. The potato wedges were tasty and I would order those again. Hopefully, the staff can become more efficient in taking orders. The food came out quickly.

Ordered a couple of chicken sandwiches, tenders & fries. We enjoyed our meals and the fries were hot & well seasoned (be careful though if you are watching your salt intake). Also order the onion rings (real ones with an actual onion in it) which came out nice & crispy with a dipping sauce. Also had a nice conversation with the manager on duty, Ms. Margaret. All in all, a really nice experience with good food.

Great customer service. Margaret is very hands on and social. They are still waiting on there full liquor licenses I tried the $5 margarita. It didn’t taste like any alcohol was added. The tenders are good and sides are good. I tried the pickles, baked beans, nachos with chicken. All were good especially for a social outing. I work at one of the dealerships and sometimes we just need to get away to decompress during and after work.
