How IHOP menu prices compare to Denny's, Cracker Barrel & First Watch

Like-for-like price check across the four most-searched U.S. breakfast / family-dining chains, May 2026 national averages.

Hours, locations & the 24-hour question

Is IHOP open 24 hours? Sometimes — here's how it actually breaks down.

The chain is famous for 24-hour service, and a meaningful share of IHOP locations do run 24/7 — typically urban downtown sites, highway-exit stores and locations near hospitals or universities. But the picture is uneven.

Smaller-market IHOPs and most suburban stores now run about 7am–10pm, with some open until midnight on weekends. Late-night staffing pressures since 2020 reduced 24-hour coverage at many locations.

The chain operates approximately 1,650 U.S. locations across all 50 states. Use the official store locator on ihop.com for exact hours at your nearest site — the website lists each store's current hours.

  • All-day breakfast at every location — guaranteed
  • 24-hour service at many urban and highway sites
  • ~1,650 U.S. locations in all 50 states
  • Late-night dining daypart is a brand identity
  • Subsidiary of Dine Brands Global (NYSE: DIN)
  • Sister chain: Applebee's (same parent company)
Dietary & allergen guide

Vegetarian picks, kids' options and how to lighten the menu

IHOP's menu is unusually friendly to vegetarian eaters — pancakes, French toast, waffles, crepes and the Spinach & Mushroom Omelette all qualify as ordered, and most omelettes can be customized vegetarian by swapping the meat. Vegan ordering takes work: there's no certified-vegan kitchen area, and butter touches the griddle.

For lower-calorie ordering, the Short Stack of Buttermilk Pancakes (350 cal) is the lightest pancake plate, and the Spinach & Mushroom Omelette (~520 cal) is the lightest combo-style breakfast. Fresh fruit cup ($3.99) is the only vegan-as-served side.

Cross-contact possible. Confirm with the restaurant if you have a serious allergy.

  • Cheapest vegetarian: Side of 1 Pancake ($2.99), Side of Toast ($2.99)
  • Vegetarian breakfast: Original Buttermilk Pancakes ($8.99), Belgian Waffle ($8.49)
  • Vegetarian combo: Cinnamon Roll Pancake Combo (with hash browns) ($13.49)
  • Vegetarian sandwich: Spinach Mushroom Cheesesteak ($11.99)
  • Vegan-as-served: Fresh Fruit Cup ($3.99), Orange Juice ($4.49)
  • Lighter picks: Short Stack pancakes (350 cal), Spinach & Mushroom Omelette (~520 cal)
Saving money at IHOP

How to actually pay less at IHOP

Loyalty app

International Bank of Pancakes

The IHOP Rewards app (a.k.a. the International Bank of Pancakes) earns PanCoins on every visit. Typically 25 PanCoins for a free Original Stack, 75 for a free entrée. Sign-up usually comes with a free birthday meal.

Mail + email

The "IHOP'n It" coupons

IHOP runs heavy direct-mail and email coupon distribution — $5-off-two-entrées, free pancakes with combo, short-stack freebies. If you live within 5 miles of a store, you'll get them. Save them, stack with app.

Free refills

Bottomless drinks > soda

Coffee ($3.99), iced coffee ($4.49) and orange juice ($4.49) are all bottomless. Fountain drink ($3.49) is one refill. If you're staying a while, bottomless coffee is the cheapest seat-warmer.

Family Feast math

Order a Family Feast for 2

The Pancake Family Pak is $24.99 — 12 pancakes total. Two adults sharing pay $12.50 each, well below ordering two Full Stacks ($17.98) plus sides. Best per-pancake price on the menu.

Kids eat free

Kids Eat Free (select stores, certain hours)

Many IHOP franchise locations run "Kids Eat Free" promos from 4pm onward — one free kids' meal per paying adult. Hours and availability vary by store; confirm with your local location.

Combo plate

Order a combo, not à la carte

A 2 x 2 x 2 ($10.99) is cheaper than buying its parts à la carte: Short Stack ($6.49) + Eggs ($3.49) + Bacon ($3.49) = $13.47. Combo plates routinely save $2–4 over piecing it together.

About IHOP

The chain that turned pancakes into a national breakfast standard.

Al and Jerry Lapin opened the first International House of Pancakes in Toluca Lake, California in 1958, betting that a sit-down restaurant built entirely around pancakes could anchor a national chain. It did. By the 1970s the brand was synonymous with American family breakfast, anchored by the Original Buttermilk Pancakes recipe still served today.

The chain shortened its name to IHOP in 1973, has been "all-day breakfast" since long before the term was marketing, and runs many of its locations 24 hours a day — the late-night IHOP is a U.S. cultural reference unto itself.

In 2018 the company executed a one-week marketing rebrand to "IHOb" — International House of Burgers — to launch a Big Steakburger lineup. The name reverted to IHOP after backlash and amusement; the burgers stayed permanently. IHOP is a subsidiary of Dine Brands Global (NYSE: DIN), which also owns Applebee's. Headquarters: Pasadena, California.

Common questions

IHOP menu — frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions people most commonly ask about IHOP's pancakes, combos, prices, hours and rewards program.

How much is the IHOP 2 x 2 x 2 in 2026?

The 2 x 2 x 2 is priced around $10.99 at most U.S. IHOP locations as of May 2026 — two eggs, two bacon strips or sausage links, and two Original Buttermilk Pancakes. It's IHOP's most-ordered combo and the cheapest full breakfast plate on the board. California, Hawaii and the Northeast typically run $1–3 higher; Midwest and South often hold near $9.99–$10.99.

What's the cheapest breakfast at IHOP?

The cheapest full breakfast is the Short Stack (2) of Original Buttermilk Pancakes at about $6.49. If you only need a coffee + something small, Bottomless Hot Coffee runs $3.99 and a Side of 1 Pancake is $2.99. The cheapest full combo with eggs and meat is the 2 x 2 x 2 at $10.99. Kids' menu items start at $5.99 (Funny Face Pancake, Mac & Cheese).

Does IHOP serve breakfast all day?

Yes — IHOP serves its full breakfast menu all day, every day. Every pancake, omelette, French toast plate, waffle and combo is available from open to close. Many IHOP locations also run 24 hours a day (especially urban and highway sites), so the all-day breakfast is also an all-night breakfast there. Smaller-market locations have shorter hours — typically 7am to 10pm. Confirm with the IHOP store locator.

How much is a stack of pancakes at IHOP?

The Original Buttermilk Pancakes (Full Stack of 5) is about $8.99. A Short Stack (2) is around $6.49. Flavored full stacks (Strawberry Banana, Chocolate Chip, Blueberry, Cupcake, NY Cheesecake, Mexican Tres Leches, Splash of Lemon, Cinnamon Bun) run $10.99–$11.99. Side of one pancake is $2.99.

What is Rooty Tooty Fresh 'N Fruity?

The Rooty Tooty Fresh 'N Fruity is IHOP's classic fruit-topped breakfast combo, priced around $13.99. It includes two eggs your way, two bacon strips, two pork-sausage links, and two Original Buttermilk Pancakes topped with strawberry or blueberry compote and whipped topping. It's been on the menu since the late 1960s and remains one of the chain's most-recognized signature plates.

How much is the IHOP Breakfast Sampler?

The Breakfast Sampler is about $13.99. It's the everything-on-one-plate option — two eggs, two bacon strips, two sausage links, a slice of ham, hash browns and two Buttermilk Pancakes. It's the most popular non-combo breakfast plate for people who want a little of everything in one order.

Is IHOP cheaper than Denny's?

On a like-for-like comparison, IHOP and Denny's are nearly identical on pricing across signature breakfast plates. IHOP's 2 x 2 x 2 (~$10.99) sits within a dollar of Denny's Grand Slam (~$11.49). A standard pancake stack runs $8.99 at IHOP vs. ~$8.49 at Denny's. Family Feasts at IHOP ($30–50) are slightly cheaper than equivalent Denny's family packs in most markets. The two chains share roughly the same family-dining price tier nationally.

What's a Family Feast at IHOP?

House Family Feasts are IHOP's take-home family meals, designed to feed 4 (or 4–6 for the Mega Family Feast). The Pancake Family Feast runs about $29.99 and includes 8 Buttermilk Pancakes, scrambled eggs, 4 bacon strips, 4 sausage links and family-size hash browns. The Mega Family Feast (~$49.99) scales that up to 12 pancakes and 8 of each meat. The Pancake Family Pak (~$24.99) is pancakes only.

Does IHOP still have IHOb burgers?

The name IHOb (International House of Burgers) was a one-week marketing stunt in June 2018 — the chain temporarily rebranded to promote a new line of Big Steakburgers, then reverted to IHOP. The burgers stayed permanently. IHOP still serves Steakburgers in 5–6 variations (Classic, Big, Bacon, Mushroom Swiss, Mega Monster) priced $11.99–$15.99, all with fries. The IHOb name itself never came back.

How do IHOP coupons and IHOP Rewards work?

IHOP runs heavy direct-mail and email coupon promotions — the "IHOP'n It" coupons are real and commonly include $5 off two entrées, free pancake stacks with combo purchase, and short-stack birthday freebies. The International Bank of Pancakes (IHOP Rewards) is the loyalty app: you earn PanCoins on every visit, redeemable for free items — typically 25 PanCoins for a free Original Stack, 75 for a free entrée. Sign-up bonus is usually a free meal on your birthday. The app generally has the strongest day-to-day deals.
