Waffle House has some options that are already vegan (tip: get the hash browns), but a waffle option doesn't seem to be among them.
While we don't have access to the exact Waffle House waffle recipe, we've snagged a "copycat" recipe from Restaurant Manager Magazine. This recent source also implies that the waffles aren't vegan nation-wide.
Let's get into the ingredients.
We won't list out the entire recipe here, but here are the main ingredients (without quantities).

Ingredients: Flour, Salt, Baking Soda, Eggs, Sugar, Butter, Shortening, Half-and-Half, Milk, Buttermilk, Vanilla.
Assuming Restaurant Manager Magazine's recipe approximates Waffle House's, Waffle House waffles are not vegan given the eggs and dairy products.
What does that mean for vegans — do all waffles everywhere have animal products in them?
