About Kawaffle Bubble Waffles
Tucked inside Plymouth Market at Stall 131, Kawaffle Bubble Waffles makes bubble waffles to order in both savoury and sweet forms, with seating on site. A separate waffle maker is kept for vegan orders and for gluten and dairy allergies, so those diners are cooked apart from the standard batter, and the savoury side runs to a waffle with vegan ham, cheese and pesto. Sweet versions come with ice cream, sauces and toppings, including strawberries and cream, and milkshakes sit alongside in flavours such as salted caramel with banana. Standard and children's sizes are both listed, and high chairs suit families with young children. A step-free entrance serves visitors with mobility needs, dogs are welcome, and orders can be taken away to eat elsewhere in the market or beyond. The stall trades Monday to Saturday and closes on Sundays, and booking ahead is recommended. A waffle special of the month runs beside the regular menu.

Customer Review Summary
The bubble waffles anchor nearly every account, described as freshly made, generously sized and available in both sweet and savoury forms, with several noting they look exactly like the photos posted on the shop's Instagram. Close behind is how reliably the kitchen handles dietary needs: reviewers with gluten and dairy allergies repeatedly say they can finally eat a proper waffle here, and vegan diners single out that plant-based milk and cheese carry no surcharge. Named favourites include the Italian savoury waffle built with vegan cheese, ham, mayo and pesto, the Cherry Bakewell waffle promoted as a special, strawberries and cream, and the choc-a-bloc, alongside biscoff, Oreo and chocolate milkshakes; one reviewer recommends the salted caramel with banana shake for anyone wanting something less sweet, and another suggests trying the waffle special of the month. Staff are described as friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about allergies, using a separate waffle maker for gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan orders.

“I've been to Kawaffle since they opened way back when, but I hadn't had a proper visit since finishing Uni. However, the Cherry Bakewell waffle they promoted on their Instagram tempted me back last weekend, and I can wholeheartedly say it did not disappoint!! My partner and I got a milkshake each too, and I can fully recommend salted caramel with banana to anyone who may like a shake that isn't too sweet to go with their waffle. Crossing all my fingers that the Cherry Bakewell stays as a constant on the menu rather than a monthly special, because if it does, I'll be making sure I'm a regular :P”

“Fantastic vegan options at this local independent trader. Great value too, especially considering price of other places nowadays and what's even better is they don't charge any extra for plant-based milk/cheese etc, really wish more places would do this. Such a great menu for vegans and gluten/dairy-free folk too. All of the savoury options can be adapted for vegans, I had the Italian with vegan cheese, vegan ham, vegan mayo and vegan pesto, such a lovely flavour. Had to had have vegan biscoff milkshake with vegan ice cream and vegan cream on top too of course. So many different sweet and savoury food and drink options. All delicious. Best of all such lovely friendly service, there's a reason Kawaffle's still going strong in Plymouth Indoor Market. Please go support them so they're here forever-more 😋”

“A little gem. All bubble waffles are gluten free. They have a good range of savory and sweet, andany vegan and dairy free options that are very filling. Staff where knowledgeable and helpful. It's tucked away in plymouth market with seating. It was a very pleasant place to sit and not overly crowded. We will visit again!”

“I have been coming to Kawaffle sporadically for over 5 years. The staff are always polite, friendly and accommodating to those with food allergies and intolerances. They use a separate waffle maker for those who have a gluten and/or dairy allergy, or who are vegan. 🥰 The waffles are always DELICIOUS! 😍 They have a lot of different flavours and toppings (savoury and sweet waffles, hot drinks, milkshakes etc.). All at affordable prices! The venue is wheelchair user accessible and is located in the Plymouth Market Place (about a 5-10 walk, ride or drive from Drake Circus shopping centre). They have dining in and takeaway options. I highly recommend, and will return again! 🤗”

“We had such a great experience! The bubble waffles not only looked incredible but tasted even better. They offer both standard and children’s sizes, which is perfect for little ones. I have dairy and gluten allergies, and they were more than happy to accommodate my needs – so appreciated! The staff were absolutely lovely and made us feel really welcome. Delicious food and fantastic service – highly recommend!”
