International House of Pancakes

This place is disgusting. The servers are ignorant and there is a reason it is mostly empty. I’m also appalled that they could post the sign for all you can eat pancakes and then tell me it doesn’t start for 3 MONTHS. I looked it up online in multiple places to discover that this is not true and yet the server was still to ignorant to check it. I can’t imagine that people could be this useless. Thanks for nothing.

One of the best I hops with the food being great as with the waiter! Fantastic breakfast

I understand that IHOP is a chain restaurants and with chains you have certain low bar expectations for service and food but this IHOP has been a bit of a frustration and disappointment both visits I’ve had.
First, it’s easy to spot, difficult to drive into. There is exactly one turn — onto Mazyck Rd off of Ashley Phosphate — that will take you directly to the restaurant. Your smartphone’s map will likely take you on a wild goose chase around a back way but that way will drop you to a turn only BACK onto Ashley Phosphate.
So once you arrive you’re already a little peeved at the round-​a-​bout way you had to get there.
Moving onto the food. Honestly, no MAJOR complaints — it’s an IHOP. Good pancakes; good, not great, French toast; decent/​passable crepes. Blonde hash browns, soft bacon, lightly toasted this that and the other.
I will say that the iced coffee tasted like an overly sweet slightly chocolated milk to me (I ordered a vanilla iced coffee) and the last time I visited I was not delivered the breakfast sausage I ordered but soft bacon instead. I didn’t bother to complain or send it back as they were pretty busy and I really just wanted to eat — NOW. Minor complaints but still irritations.
Overall, I probably won’t make plans to visit this location again — in large part because it is a PAIN to get into the parking lot!
But if someone else drives, I’d at least eat here again.

Good food & outstanding service!

Well, it’s one more IHOP in a line of similar versions across the country. This one doesn’t really stand out but it is non-​smoking (yay) and the servers/​food quality I’ve had are acceptable.
As a side-​note, last time I asked if they could make a German pancake… the waitress said they could! I thought I had stumbled upon a secret menu, but it ended up just being 4 plain crepes with butter, powdered sugar, and lemons… close, but no cigar.
Finally, the road situation near this IHOP is frustrating. You can see the restaurant clearly from Ashley Phosphate Rd, but the only legal way to get to there is to use Mazyck Rd (one light to the west… away from the freeway).
