New Braunfels’ Hungry Waffle Brings a Sweet and Savory Twist to Classic Sandwiches
The Hungry Waffle food truck has officially opened in New Braunfels, serving up unique waffle-based creations that blend breakfast favorites with savory sandwiches. Co-owners Jennifer Casillas and Adam Tekin were inspired by the community’s craving for waffles and crafted a menu featuring Liege, Belgian, and bubble waffles. Their standout items include the Waffle Burger, packed with seasoned beef patties and a signature special sauce, and the Philly Cheesesteak Waffle Melt, where tender steak and peppers are sandwiched between crispy waffles. Despite nearly giving up after losing $50,000 to a failed food truck deal, the couple persevered to bring their dream to life. Originally planning to open a restaurant, they opted for a food truck to introduce their concept to the Texas Hill Country. Since launching on January 12, the Hungry Waffle has gained attention for its high-quality ingredients and creative menu. While they hope to open a brick-and-mortar location in the future, for now, fans can visit the food truck at 1760 S. Business I-35, New Braunfels. Check their Facebook page for updated hours, as they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
