Our History
Royal Waffle King’s founder and president, Charlie Crowder, served as Vice President of Real Estate Development for Huddle House, Inc. where he oversaw the site selection, construction, and development of more than 250 locations throughout the southeast.
In 1986, Crowder left Huddle House to form Royal Waffle King Corporation. Since its foundation, Royal Waffle King now has 7 locations, serving up smiles across Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, and North Carolina.
