IHOP All You Can Eat Pancakes Are a Wallet-Friendly Back to School Special You Won't Want to Miss
Fans of IHOP fluffy pancakes can rejoice as their annual “All You Can Eat Pancakes” promotion is back! The beloved chain is offering unlimited flapjacks to customers for just $5 or free when you include them with a breakfast combo. If this sounds like the perfect meal ideal to start your day, read on to find out more about this sweet and irresistible special!
The scoop on IHOP all you can eat pancakes
This IHOP promotion allows customers to fill up on fluffy pancakes until their flapjack cravings are satisfied. It only applies to buttermilk pancakes, not the specialty flapjack options. However, the pancakes are still delicious on their own or with other breakfast dishes.
How many pancakes are in an IHOP stack?
The restaurant chain offers a short stack of three pancakes and a full stack of five pancakes. If you're ordering all you can eat pancakes on their own, you'll receive a full stack to savor with butter and maple syrup. Additional pancakes will then be served two at a time. Unlimited pancakes with a breakfast combo will come with three to start, with extra pancakes coming two at a time. Overall, you get plenty of bang for your buck with mouthwatering flapjacks that will brighten up your day. (This guide on how to reheat pancakes allows you to take any leftover flapjacks home and warm them up the next day.)

When is IHOP all-you-can-eat pancakes in 2024?
IHOP kicked off this annual promotion in late July, which will run at participating locations until September 15. It's not only a great way to enjoy thick and tasty pancakes, but the restaurant chain says in a press release that it happens "around back-to-school to help families when schedules are tight, and wallets are pinched from shopping." Watch IHOP's commercial for this customer-favorite special.
Why are IHOP pancakes so delicious?
It's hard to resist IHOP's rich and sweet pancakes that have made them the standard for many breakfast chains. The secret? Marie Grimm, IHOP's vice president of culinary innovation, says using cold ingredients is key. "Warm (or even room temperature) oil, water, milk and eggs can heat up the gluten in the flour, setting off the chemical reactions that make pancakes light and springy prematurely," she explains to Delish. Grimm adds that other steps like not overmixing the batter and looking for a "lip" to form around the edges of the pancakes before flipping ensure fluffy and flavorful results. Another reason to indulge in stacks upon stacks of these world-famous pancakes during your next trip to IHOP!
