The city of Decatur’s first Waffle House is on track to open later this fall.

According to the AJC, the 4,600-square-foot restaurant will open underneath Eddie’s Attic in an early 20th-century building that formerly housed a Belk’s department store.

The very first Waffle House opened 60 years ago this month in Avondale Estates.

The company’s second restaurant was a walk-up at 10th Street and Peachtree Street, which opened in 1957.
