IHOP

At best, it's OK - but the kids love it!

I gotta admit, I'm not the biggest fan of IHOP, but they do have a few good meals...be sure to stick with the pancakes, french toast etc. though. You will be most pleased with those selections as the omelet dishes and other egg dishes are far from good.. I had an omelet there not too long ago and it was one of the worst omelets I have ever had. However, their crepes are very good. The kids, however, always seem to leave quite pleased, more than likely because they, too, are sticking to the pancakes. The cleanliness of the restaurant leaves much to be desired as well. And the coffee is miseable! You will leave with a full stomach though.

• Pros: Good pancakes, etc
• Cons: Not exactly clean, omelets, etc are awful!

Breakfast served all day and pancakes served a variety of ways are the hallmarks of this diner-style restaurant.

In Short
The first International House of Pancakes opened in a suburb of Los Angeles in 1958 serving a menu of hearty breakfast favorites. Today the restaurant still serves its signature dishes like the original buttermilk pancakes and pigs in blankets: sausage links wrapped in hotcakes. Other breakfast items include waffles, omelets, French toast and crepes. Non-breakfast offerings include sandwiches, burgers, entree-sized salads, and dinners like T-bone steak, pot roast and herb-roasted chicken.
