Loaded Waffle Sticks Are A Childhood Dream Fulfilled For This Entrepreneur

For Francisco Lara of Oxnard, California, the dream of opening up his own sweets shop started when he was a kid looking up to his aunt who was known for serving her own desserts to Mexican celebrities. The complexities that came with life during the pandemic last year found Lara pivoting from finding a job in a tough market to actually taking the steps to make his childhood dream come true.

After finding a unique waffle maker online, Lara then started creating his sweet waffle creations at home and testing them with friends and family. Positive feedback then became word of mouth and social media buzz, which helped Lara create Don Waffly from his home.

What guests are treated to at Don Waffly are fluffy waffles adorned with a host of sweet drizzles, dips, and toppings — all making for a one of a kind dessert experience.

Beyond the sweet waffle sticks, Don Waffly also sells some of the best breakfast sandwiches you can sink your teeth into. It’s a downright proper way to start your morning, as each sandwich features soft-scrambled eggs and pillowy brioche buns that accompany different proteins and a Sriracha mayo. Truly these breakfast sandwiches stand up to the industry’s best.

Get your Don Waffly fix at The Collection at RiverPark in Oxnard, California and experience a concept that’s literally Francisco Lara’s childhood dream fulfilled.
