Chicken and waffles in Toronto are great for when you want it all. Savoury or sweet? Opt for both at once when you order up this soulful Southern staple. Then the real conundrum becomes, syrup or hot sauce?
Here are my picks for the top places to get chicken and waffles in Toronto.
Cluck Clucks
This casual joint near the Esplanade is all about fried chicken and waffles. There's the simple Holy Cluck or if you're looking for something different there's the Shut the Parm up, a boneless breast, marinara sauce and cheese on a basil and parmesan waffle.
School Restaurant
Stacks of fluffy, golden waffles and fried chicken are a menu staple at this Liberty Village mainstay. Each order is served alongside house hot honey sauce and brown sugar butter.
