Huddle House is a chain of 24-hour diner-style restaurants with over 430 locations in over 21 states, primarily found in Southern United States. The chain was started in 1964 in Decatur, Georgia by John Sparks, with the goal of providing a 24-hour eatery. It is named after the act of huddling in football. The original Huddle House in Decatur was established to give fans a place to eat after "the big game" on Friday nights. Its competitors include Waffle House, IHOP, Cracker Barrel, Denny's, and Bob Evans.

Famous quotes containing the words huddle and/or house:

    “Are you cold too, poor Pleiads,

    We huddle together like birds in a storm:
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    Go out of the house to see the moon, and ‘t is mere tinsel; it will not please as when its light shines upon your necessary journey. The beauty that shimmers in the yellow afternoons of October, who could ever clutch it? Go forth to find it, and it is gone: ‘t is only a mirage as you look from the windows of diligence.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
