Sure, it's just an IHOP. But it's an option pretty much 24/7, you know the brand, and your expectations likely aren't that high. What's not to like? Of course, the food is nothing to write home about, but it's served hot and generally delivered with a friendly face. Payden was a great server and made sure that we had plenty of fresh coffee and checked on us frequently at this visit. IHOP doesn't do all the fancy breakfasts, but if you ask for some modifications or maybe even something off-menu, I bet they'll accommodate you. They do have an avocado toast option for the healthy types, but for those of us just there to eat more than 1000 cal in a breakfast setting, eggs, bacon, and whatever high-carb side you add goes down right. Prices have definitely gone up, as is the case pretty much everywhere. A full-on diner breakfast runs you about $14 now, which is still within range of the value. You're getting a nice comfortable setting, great service, and decent food. Put all those things together and that's probably why their successful brand has been around for as long as it has. read more

I came here today, on a day that they were running a deal where people with public library cards eat for free. Naturally, they were busy. But my server, Crystal, was incredibly attentive and helpful! Maybe it's because I was right next to a POS system but I feel like even if I hadn't been, she would have been just as attentive! Not to mention the omelette I had was so, so good! read more

Went out for breakfast with my friends and it was cooked perfect and my server was very sweet and made my day!! Her name was Brandy very kind soul!! 10/10!!! read more

IHOP - pancakes, eggs, bacon, omelet, french toast, hash browns - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

We had a very nice waiter. Food was okay but their prices are excessive for what you get. No way should breakfast for two people cost just less than $40 with tip. read more

Our waiter Hunter was AMAZING!!!!!! He was so attentive and paid attention to detail making our visit to this location in Lawrence delightful! read more

It's an IHOP, I've learned to come in with low expectations, especially anytime between 11pm and 5am. This location was exactly what I expected from the franchise. The server kept up with her section with ease. didn't seem like she loved her job but didn't hate being there. The steak omelet was the same as I have gotten from other IHOP's. Plenty of leftovers to bring home for lunch the next day. read more

Great bargain meal! Fluffy biscuit, buttered and grilled, with 2 crispy bacon, 2 link sausages, and 2 eggs any style. Clean dining area, with spacious seating. Polite, prompt service with frequent check ins. This will be my new fave. Checkin out those crepes next time! read more

The early morning service was great. The food was hot and delish and we didn't have to wait long for it to be served. My only complaint was the bacon. It was not fresh and it was not crispy...otherwise a good dining experience. The bathroom was clean and the store was clean overall. read more

I had a taste for pancakes and I heard this place had a makeover so I'm here to see the improvements. When I came in two years ago the food had to be taken back a few times before it was cook correctly, so I didn't my expectations weren't high. My hot chocolate wasn't that chocolatey, probably because most of it was on the side, nonetheless it was still good just gotta work on the presentation. My husband ordered the splash berry drink and it was surprisingly very good, great mixture! We decided to share the chicken fajita omelette and ordered 3 pancakes to pair it with. The omelette was jam packed with chicken and topped with it as well. Everything was cooked to perfection vegetables, omelette, and chicken. The pancakes were light, fluffy, and tasted great as always. I always get original because you can never go wrong with them. read more

Service was great. Our food came out in a timely manner And it tasted very good. The prices are reasonable.

Worst dining experience in Lawrence and sadly after saying how bad the food was we got attitude from the manager. IHOP is basic diner food, it's never amazing but it's at least reliable and you know what you're getting. The last few times at this location have sadly been anything but that. I should know better to order a TBone steak from a chain establishment but my dumb a** did and the result was horrible. They claimed to have cooked it on a griddle but it legit looked gray and boiled. I complained, got attitude and was offered nothing in return. The young lady on the phone asked me "what do you want me to do about it" with a sassy tone. Avoid this ihop read more

If I could give a 0 I would. Not only did we sit ignored for 20 minutes. I then ordered gluten free pancakes. I have a gluten allergy and after eating there tonight I am dealing with a celiac attack. I have ate there so many times in the last 3 years and this is the first time I have had this happen. read more

Ordered an omelette & burger. Food took a long time to get & when we got it, it was cold. Only think hot was the coffee. Over priced & quality of food not worth it. Not going back. read more

Went in at 9:45 PM to get some pancakes. The girl at the door greeted us with "we close at 10:00". I said they had 15 minutes and asked if they could serve us quickly. She said it would take 15 minutes to cook food so no. Pancakes do not take fifteen minutes to cook! So I'm sitting at Perkins eating some great breakfast. Perkins will be my go-to for pancakes now. read more

They forgot to give me syrup for my pancakes it's literally one of the biggest pancake places

Went in there was like emporia they sat us down we waited 20 mins and still nobody came to the table to take our order there was 2 other people showed up and they had someone right away read more

We came to IHOP for breakfast on July 4th, 2019. Our server was very in attentive and the worst thing was finding a bug that seems to be an ant in the salt shaker. I'm always leery of eating at IHOP because I've heard stories. When I told our waitress, that there was a bug in our salt shaker, I nicely asked if I could get another one, she told me, "that's just pepper, but okay." That really irritated me, customers always right for one, two I know what I seen and she didn't even look to see what was in it she immediately said it was just a piece of pepper. Shitty service and food per usual, won't be coming back to the Lawrence location, that's for sure! read more

Ihop is always a treat. I eat there regularly. I can rely on quality food, quick service and friendly staff. Once they paid for my meal because they thought they had cleared my table without my permission (I had gone to the bathroom). I didn't even have to ask for the comp. I enjoy this restaurant. The atmosphere is nice and not too noisy. read more

IHOP - Refreshing!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

Literally the worst customer service I've ever seen at a restaurant... I went with my family in the late evening and they were not busy at all, the waitresses were standing around talking. We get our table and our waitress takes a noticeably long time to take our drink order. My mom went to the bathroom shortly after sitting down, came back, and I told her a story before our waitress came to take drink orders if that puts it into perspective. Then the waitress brings only half our food and it is at least 5 minutes before the other half arrives! I ate my Whole hash brown before my pancakes came, still no pancakes.. My family was quite annoyed so my father walked to the kitchen and asked if we could get our pancakes (that were sitting on the counter). Then when we went to pay the manager was there and we asked her why we were charged for avocado when we asked the waitress if my mother could sub it since she is gluten free and they said sure no problem no extra cost. Then at the register the manager says that the waitresses answer was wrong and she wasn't going to take off the upcharge... are you serious?? Then my mother said "that's ridiculous" and the manager told my mother that she "doesn't care and doesn't want to hear her complaining" and so my mom left and my dad gave the waitress $0 tip because it was such a bad experience and the manager LITERALLY RIPPED THE RECEIPT OUT OF HIS HAND AND TORE IT IN HALF. WTH! It was wild. Needless to say I won't be going back, even for those decadent New York cheesecake pancakes. read more

I had to yell at the manager kalob to add strawberries in my lemonade. I was extremely angry. I just wanted strawberry lemonade.

Ordered the Sr chicken strips dinner. Received 3 shriveled dried chicken strips and 1 tablespoon of mac & cheese. Small pieces of broccoli were spread out to cover the plate to make it look full. My son ordered a waffle and he said it was good. read more

Food delish. Ordered all you can eat pancakes. Waitress delivered first 2 and never came back. An hour later and we still saw no one. Worst service I've seen in Lawrence. read more

This iHop is just as disappointing as the one in Dodge City, KS. Although, at least the iHop in Dodge City was CLEAN! My mother and I walked into iHop at about 11:20pm because we wanted to grab a drink and snack before I boarded my train at 11:49pm. First off, when we walked in, there was no one in line and the lady at the register told us, "I'll be with you when I can." We looked around and there was no one but a mother and her child on the waiting booth beside the checkout. My mother let her know we were on a time schedule and the lady took us around the corner and offered us an unset, filthy booth. To which, my mother said "No, we'll take this table." and we sat adjacent to the booth. Which, that table was also filthy. I was brushing crumbs and chunks off the table with my sleeve as I settled into my spot. We looked to my menus and they too were filthy. Stained with whatever it was and sticky . . . very disappointing. When the server-lady came over to ask us what we wanted to drink, we both ordered water. As we waited a few moments, the server was standing in the waitress area visiting with another server instead of getting our drinks. My mother and I exchanged a look and she asked, "Should we just go?" It was already 11:30 and my train was to be arriving in less than 20 minutes. I nodded and agreed, very disappointed as we had already been to Applebee's and the Boarder Mexican Grill to find they were both closed 20+ minutes early. But, we weren't about to eat in a filthy restaurant . . . So, I told the server, who was still standing there visiting with another server, to cancel our waters because we were leaving. We will not be back, and we do not recommend this filthy, filthy place. read more

Ok, I have been to IHOP many times and the service and food can be classified as up or down, considering what day you go, however.we are facing a truly unusual time where our very presence outside of our homes are discouraged, therefore many restaurants, including this one claimed to offer home delivery to the Lawrence area and waive delivery fees. I should have known there was a hidden wizard behind the curtain so to speak. 2 days ago, I called to have meals delivered to my home after placing it inline, only to find out that living 7 miles from the restaurant was out of delivery range by door dash...mind you, you are not informed of this until you've placed your order, so I cancelled it and ordered from another restaurant. This morning I called to order and decided I would do curbside and "Voila"...they say they are open, but no phones are being answered and no orders taken. So now I must venture out to the grocery store to get food and risk my health yet again simply because IHOP cannot or will not live up to a service they promised to provide. If you can't deliver on a promise, simply don't offer it. In a time where many are sick and dying and many are out of work, you would think that those who have been blessed to be a blessing to others would live up to the chance to do so, rather than just remain open to collect a paycheck, but not do the work...just close your doors if catering to the needs of the community is too much for you, we would certainly understand, but being open and not living up to your promise seems to be intentionally lazy and incompetent. ..sorry, but mirrors hurt. read more

Ok it is an IHOP but our service was quick, friendly and exceeded expectations. We split the blueberry crepes combo and for the price everthing was almost perfect (even though the eggs may have been a bit undercooked) Property seemed to be very clean and well maintained. Above average IHOP! Keep them yummy crepes on the menu. read more

Good food but service was TERRIBLE. We waited around for our bill for almost 20 min while the servers and manager were standing around talking and joking around with one another. read more

I went for a quick mid-night snack. Let me tell you, the service was complete poop! They only filled my Dr. Pepper once during my 2 hours being there. And it took them an hour and a half for my burger to come out. If I where you, I would stay away from this poop hole of an establishment. Save your money and go to Dennys. read more

Terrible customer service, every worker that talked to us was rude. If I could do 0 stars I would. Go to another ihop not this one.

The food was delicious, service was awesome. Danielle was our waitress and was very pleasant, helpful & professional. She is a top notch employee who cares about her customers. She has waited on us many times and makes our dining experience so enjoyable that we always look forward to the next time we come in to see her. our dining experience is also inhanced by the other staff at IHOP too. We are always greeted with smiles from them (like Stacey, the manager, Devin, Carmin as well as the others just to name a few) as well as an expression as if they are always glad to to see a friend come in to see them. We feel very at home throughout our dining experience! This is an exceptional IHOP with exceptional employees who care about their customers and go out of their way to make your dining experience enjoyable and delightful! read more

Man that was the biggest and best omelette I've ever eaten! It was fresh and the meats and veggies were plentiful! The restaurant is pretty clean and well lit. Also the dining room is arranged for parents with little ones to have plenty of space! The parking lot needs a little attention as it has potholes and looks rough-I almost drove on by but was pretty hungry! The staff was friendly and attentive! read more

I've been coming here for years. But the last 2 times I was here I left very unhappy. Last time the waiter forgot multiple things, was very slow, and very inattentive. This time I waited for 20 minutes without my server even acknowledging me. After that she said she'd be right back to take my order. But didn't. I waited another 20 minutes, and finally decided to leave. This is not ok. read more

I'm very unhappy with the service I received at this IHOP. I get the same meal at EVERY IHOP I go to (I've even got it at this one before). But on this day the manager (Carmen) and waitress (MJ) refused to substitute the hash browns for fries on my meal. Instead of providing good customer service by coming up a solution, they went to the kitchen and kept talking so LOUDLY about it that everyone on my side of the restaurant could hear them. This was very UNPROFESSIONAL and HORRIBLE customer service. I wouldn't recommend this IHOP to any of my family or friends. read more

First off they suck, my mom is disabled and elder and took a bus to spend time with my 9 yr old neice and they told her they would come get her when there was a place to eat due to CDC rules, thats fine but next time make sure you tell ppl waiting in the 30 degree weather outside, its gonna be over an hour instead of them freezing until they were numb, and tried to stand in double door and the manager was called and told them to get out....and told them they would call on the phone when there's a spot, never called mom is sick and wanted to enjoy time she had with her granddaughter! Your awful and iam telling everybody here and social media. read more

IHOP is a joyous treasure. My roommate and I wait day by painstaking day until we have enough money to afford God's delicious pancakes and french toast hot chocolate. In all honesty, it's an IHOP. The food is good, cheap breakfast and lunch food, the waitresses are friendly, and you get the IHOP experience. If you want gold flakes on your kimchi avocado smoothie bowl, go to downtown Lawrence; this establishment is FINE. read more

Food was very good, a little over priced, but not horrible. Staff was alright. The hostesses was not there when we first walked in and ended up waiting for a few minutes to be seated.

This place has gone down hill. Food quality maybe a 2 at best. Service a 3. Cleanliness a 1. I will skip this place from now on as it's not worth the cost of the food. There are much better places in Lawrence to eat. read more
