Free Pancakes at IHOP
Tuesday, March 12, 2019
On IHOP Free Pancake Day, visit any IHOP restaurant and get a FREE short stack of our Original Buttermilk Pancakes. Then donate to help children battling critical illnesses. Each stack served on IHOP Free Pancake Day helps us flip it forward for kids in need. Doing good never tasted so good.
Meet the 2019 IHOP Kids Chef Team
To kick off IHOP Free Pancake Day, we invited kids treated at any Children’s Miracle Network Hospital to dream up their best pancake recipe. Three finalists emerged. Watch them in action at the IHOP test kitchen. Read their stories and check out their pancakes. Stay tuned for our Kid Chef Champion announcement on February 25.
