“Donna and I have been looking for a franchise to invest in for many years. The Dolly Llama Waffle Master was a perfect fit for us. We are super excited to bring this concept to a growing Magnolia,” said Marc in a emailed statement to What Now Houston.

The brand prides itself on offering authentic European flavors and techniques, such as Belgian waffles using traditional methods, and the Hong Kong Bubble Waffle prepared with a special batter that produces a unique crispy and custard-like texture. The two unique waffle styles—OG Liege Waffle and Bubble Waffle—are the base of the interactive menu of ‘Top Picks’ waffle and ice cream desserts, ice cream waffle sandwiches, and a ‘Build Your Own’ menu. Guests can mix and match between the OG Liege Waffle or the Bubble Waffle and add ice cream, sauces, and toppings to create various combinations and flavors.

“Some of my favorite items on the menu would begin with one of our signature bubble waffles topped with vanilla ice cream, fresh bananas, almonds, and peanut butter sauce—better known as Llama Gone Nuts,” Marc said.

Other favorites include Sugar N’ Spice with an OG Liege waffle, horchata ice cream, speculoos cookies, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and caramel sauce, or the Snow Storm, which is a shake with vanilla ice cream, whole milk, Oreos, chocolate sauce, coco sprinkles, and whipped cream. Guests can grab a mini OG box with six or 12 mini-OG Liege waffles sprinkled with powdered sugar, ice cream, sauces, and toppings of your choice. 

Dr. Donna Griggs has owned and operated Forest West Animal Clinic located in Northwest Houston since 2007. They are scheduled to break ground this year on a new facility, which will consist of a free-standing state-of-the-art animal hospital and a free-standing pet resort, spa, daycare and grooming facility. 

The Griggs are also planning to open three other locations for The Dolly Llama Waffle Master. “Our territory includes Magnolia, Sugar Land, Katy, Cypress, and the Rice Village area. We are actively searching for the next Dolly Llama location. We love the Town Lake area in Cypress, as well as the Katy Mills area,” Marc said. That is exciting news for the Houston area!
