ABOUT LITTLE GEM
Established in 2015, Little Gem Belgian Waffles is the original Liege Waffle specialty shop in the bay area.
The owners were trained in Belgium and San Francisco Baking Institute, spent close to a year refining the recipe daily, and tested over 600+ versions of the waffle before opening!
We handcraft our Liege waffles from scratch daily in small batches using only the finest most natural ingredients (some organic and none artificial) at our shop in Berkeley, CA.
Liege waffles originated from Liege, Belgium. It's made from a yeast-rising brioche dough. They are crispy on the outside, fluffy, moist and chewy on the inside. The "secret ingredient" Belgian "pearl sugars" are baked into the waffle which caramelizes on the surface as well as create sweet pockets inside the waffle. The waffles have a unique, truly irresistible aroma! You've got to try it to experience it! :)
Most customers say we are the BEST waffles they have ever had! We have over 850 5 star reviews from Yelp and Google
We are the winner of Daily Californian Best of Berkeley three years in a row: 2021, 2022, 2023!
