If you want to wait 2 hours for your overpriced breakfast food in a cramped environment by all means eat here. If you order delivery you better tip extremely well because delivery drivers avoid this place like the plague. Slow and disorganized as a restaurant can be. read more

Worst service ever. We changed waiters 3 times before getting our drinks an hour into our visit. After waiting 2 hours for our food, we left. Management was no help. I would not recommend this place but my sweet tea was good. read more

TL;DR: don't order curbside pickup and don't expect anyone to answer the phone Ordered curbside pickup for 8:30. Used the link to say I was on my way and got there at 8:30. Used the link to say I was there. Waited 10 minutes and decided to call to make sure they knew I was there. Proceeded to try to call back to back without answer for 15 minutes. Got someone who asked me to hold and was hung up on instead. I couldn't go inside because I had kids in pjs with me and it's cold outside. Continued to call constantly to get someone on the phone for another 5 minutes and finally got someone again who said they'd let the person over pickup know. Waited 10 minutes and had to call again multiple times until I got an answer and the person who answered was rude and said they didn't know I was here. I told them I checked in online and called multiple times. I was put on hold and finally got my food at 9:20 (still on hold when she got to my car door). I got a "sorry about that" and she left. Food was cold... read more

Service was terrible! Waited 20 minutes for a table then 30 minutes for our waitress. There were plenty of employees running around I noted. When we finally ordered it was another 50 minutes for our food. My wife had noticed from our booth several other customers had come in after us got their food and were leaving. Finally our food arrived and asked what the hold up was. She just gave me a condescending look with a roll of the eyes and walked away. Food was ice cold and tasted awful. I expressed disappointment with the cashier. No offer to speak to a manager simply "we don't know what's going on in that kitchen ". I tipped a penny. Never Again read more

Wife wanted pancakes with her breakfast and we were on the south side of town. IHOP was near our next stop. Cleanliness 5/5, service 4/5, food delivered in spurts. Let me explain. Coffee and water showed quickly. Order taken. First out eggs and meats were delivered. Then as we were finishing the plates, here came a stack of pancakes...about 10 minutes after our food. Then after all was finished, our servings of Grits came. Oh, they were hot. But we had to ask for butter. Each part was good, but waiting for the whole order was weird and off putting. Just to Top it off, we had to wait to check out, cashier had locked up her machine.....seriously, they have staff, tables, menus....but, they need kitchen help and Management presence. read more

Gussie the waitress at the Abilene to IHOP would rather talk to single male for a good five minutes than check on her other tables. Food was sub par and she never came to check on us after she brought plates out until she brought us check and asked if we needed to go boxes. food 3 stars server 0 stars. read more

Close to the hotel, tried it for breakfast. Service was poor- waited 30 minutes for more beverages. Long wait for food too. When the food finally did come out, it was cold. The pancakes were so dry my son didn't even eat them. Hash browns were awfully burnt and swimming in grease. Very disappointing to spend $50 for breakfast that was disgusting. That coupled with the poor service is the reason for the 1-star. Come to the Abilene often to visit family, we won't be visiting this his iHop again. read more

Went there for a late breakfast on a Sunday. If you've been to one, you've been to them all. The issues I think this venue may have are their service and presentation. Service - My experience was "ok". As compared to other reviewers, I didn't have any major problem. Food - Was standard taste wise, but the presentation was a bit awkward. I ordered silver dollar pancakes and they came out looking "weird". Not bad. They brought my toast out on a huge plate instead of a saucer. Again, these are small things that just leave you scratching your head. Environment - the place was packed. This isn't their fault. I believe this is moreso a function of Abilene's inability to meet demand for this kind of service. read more

These ppl here are so rude! They don't care for their customers, the bus boy was rude to a customer before me, while I was waiting for my order that they were out of ham but they didn't bother to tell me it replace it before I left the building! I had to go back to pick it up. This boy clearly sees Im not with bite squad but says to me, " are you with bite squad" what an asshat!! Do I look like I'm dressed as a bite squad person in their clearly marked bite squad shirt?! No get some manners or fire this rude ass boy!! Talk blk scrawny boy he's mixed. He should be wearing a hair net too if he's handling food!! How gross!! read more

IHOP - Wtf is this - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Abilene, Texas

The Service is good. However they can't cook OM eggs so I ordered OE eggs knowing this. They come out over Med well my hash browns.I asked for them browned. I prefer scattered and browned but again they can't do this either. They come out with very little brown mostly white. I have them recook my eggs they come out pretty much raw. Then they decide to make it over. The eggs come out great hash browns oil Covered mess of goo..!!! This is why I wish huddle house would have been open. I rarely have problems there and they cost is less. read more

If you want to actually get seated, don't go here. We have never had good service at this location. Our latest visit, we sat for over an hour waiting to get seated after midnight. The hostess came out to give updates and it was just one excuse after another (no cooks, got slammed, issues with servers, and finally "gas leak"). we watched many people leave without getting served even after being seated. An Uber Eats driver had been waiting over an hour. This is always the worst service we have ever had at an IHOP location. read more

First, Akirah is a great waitress and seems to be a super nice young lady. She is a great asset to any business. If you have a restaurant and need a great person to work there come talk to Akirah. The service was extremely slow tonight. Not many customers do I guess they have new cook? read more

The IHOP in Abilene never answer their phone and the staff is way rude when trying to call them.

There was nothing special about this iHop's food , the only thing set apart was our wonderful server Natasha. She had a great attitude and was a truly kind and funny soul. We loved having her and I can't wait to see her again read more

I come to this IHOP quite often; as I am a big fan of IHOP. While I do suggest this restaurant to people, there is some things that annoy me about this IHOP. During my past several visits to this restaurant, they never seem to have a hostess or host at the front of the restaurant. I always need to stop a waitress to be added to the wait list. They should change to just making the front a sign in list if this is gonna be the case. The food is always amazing and I love the menu and the taste of the food. The service is usually on point. I like the people who work here. Also, please bring back the pitchers of coffee. I don't understand how you can't serve pitchers of coffee because of Covid. Overall, this is a good restaurant. read more

The beverages took 15 minutes to get to us and then the food we got was missing a few items. Told the waitress it was fine, however she kept pressuring us to take it back. We told her no, that we'd just eat it. We both started eating and only ate half because it wasn't good. We won't be back. read more

Worst customer service legit waited an hour for some pancakes JUST PANCAKES place is a no go

IHOP is always a busy breakfast spot simply because there's not much else around. Nonetheless, the food here is still great. They have a huge variety of sweet items that I love such as their fruit-topped pancakes, waffles, and crepes. Their pancakes in general are amazing. You really can't go wrong with any of the items honestly. The service here though is alright. They can be slow and forgetful. Would be 5/5 if customer service was better. read more

IHOP - Strawberries & Cream Pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Abilene, Texas

This location is a joke. The utter disorganization and lack of effort by management and staff is ridiculous. No one knows what anyone else is doing or supposed to be doing. I've heard management berate employees in front of customers when the poor environment clearly falls back on management. Customers stand at the counter waiting to pay their bill sometimes for 5-10 mins before they're even approached. They rarely have bags to put to go orders in so it's not unusual to watch customers carrying handfuls of containers in their arms hoping not to drop them before reaching their vehicle outside. Bathrooms are always a mess and out of soap, toilet paper and/or paper towels. Clearly management needs to take control of this location. read more

Terrrible terrible terrible food took forever would never go here again awful!!!! the food was cold and soggy do not go here!!!

We ordered the tbone steak and eggs through doordash. I ordered medium- well. The steak was raw!!!!!!! When I called they did not offer reimbursement read more

Had to ask for straw then silverware, the table next to us had to ask for syrup for 3 little people with pancakes. Asked for Tobasco, got Cholula. Asked for toast that comes with the plate, got extra hash browns instead and charged for them. $11 for 2 crepes that taste like old grease. And the place isn't busy. If you need breakfast today, go to Lenny's or FlipnEgg. read more

I use to could go to IHOP and know what kind of pancakes I was ordering. Liked that. These days you may get large ones, or small ones, or thin ones, or thick ones. I seldom get what I expect. Not good! read more

This place has the absolute worst service!!! Since moving to the area, we have been there twice and our service was horrible both times. Our waitress took our order and never came back to check on us. She stayed in the kitchen area and never came back to check on any of her tables. Btw I had a perfect view facing the kitchen. As if the wait staff wasn't bad enough, it took over an hour for our food to be served and our toast came to our table without any butter and our food was served lukewarm. Please, don't blame it on Covid, cause I'm so over that!! We will not be going back there. Can't wait till the one in Clyde opens!!!! read more

Called ahead before we went to restaurant to check wait time and they said no wait. We arrived and were seated at a table right away. Restaurant was not busy and we were seated in a section that was half empty. It took 30 minutes for a waitress to come over to take our drink order. We ordered everything at once just to be safe. We didn't get our food until 45 minutes later. Food was good, but not worth the wait time read more

We waited up front for the hostess almost 30 minutes with no one attending us. The front waiting area grew to about 20 people with no action from the staff. There is no way I will ever step foot in a IHOP again. We had ordered to go & walked out after the complete ineptness of the restaurant staff. read more

What can i say about IHop? Let me start by saying I am NO breakfast fan, therefore I will NEVER find time to assign a 5-star-review to an establishment that has made their business over selling breakfast 24/7... Having said that, it was part of our routine to go to IHop for breakfast on the day of each other's birthday... normally it would be a week/school day.. but, getting up @5:30 AM to have some pretty good pancakes with with fresh strawberries, french toast, hash browns, crispy bacon with some nice coffee was a good change of pace. So, why just 3-stars? Because service is hit or miss with this place. And, you best hope they aren't too busy or you may risk being late or getting subpar service/food. So, i have decided to assign a 3 star as a sign of good faith... we all have bad days. read more

Terrible service. I sat with a direct view into the kitchen and saw tons of plates sitting under the heat lamp for 15+ minutes at a time. I watched to see what servers were responsible (and to make sure one of them wasn't mine), but it looked like the kitchen was partially plating sides before the main entrees were done. If you plate the veggies and mashed potatoes first to wait for the chicken, sticking them under a heat lamp does NOT make them fresh. Our server apologized for the wait on the food, and when it came it was cold and obviously old except for the main entree, hot like it just came out. IHOP can be just fine if the kitchen doesn't do this. Then, just to make SURE I was motivated enough to leave a bad review, we waited over 20 more minutes after our plates were cleared for our check. Definitely do NOT recommend. read more

Very poor food quality and environment, temperature was even bothersome. Hot temperature, burnt hash browns, racist customers, was very displeased :( read more

The most disgusting restaurant I have ever been in. I would be totally embarrassed if I was the manager or owner of this franchise! The floors are completely dirty, they are undermanned, and the food was unfit! Kudos to Chris because he realized what was going on but try to keep a cool head and keep us satisfied. Thank you Chris. Please, do not even give this place a chance you will be totally unsatisfied and disappointed. read more

I don't know why I'm giving this place 4 stars. Maybe it's because I leave happy and full. But the last few times we went here the food was just ok. Last night I ordered a pancake combo and it came with eggs that I ordered scrambled. They were so flat and sad looking and covered in grease. I ordered my bacon burnt and they did that right, the pancakes were tasty as well. My boyfriend ordered the shrimp, and for the second time we were told they were "out" of the pineapple glaze sauce that we've been wanting to try for awhile. I have a feeling they were never "out" but just giving us that excuse because they don't want to make it or serve it without us ordering the "right" kind of shrimp since there are two versions on the menu. Service is always nice. One of the only late night eats in the area besides drive thru. read more

I just ordered online through their app and the app said the order would be ready in about 15 minuets but it's the weekend and I know sometimes this place gets busy. I show up after 25 minutes and they tell me their computers are down and now I have to wait here for these people to make my order. Why do you have an option to order through the app if you're just gonna ignore it and make your customers wait in store? Get your *stuff* together ihop. read more

Man, I had the weirdest server there. As in, I am quite certain that I was being filmed for a upcoming airing of some reality show. He was slow as the butter pecan syrup sitting all tasty like on the table waiting for the stack of pancakes I ordered after much painful shuffling back and forth getting our drinks. In fact, I could write a LOT of desciptive stories about this particular server but hey, I'm a nice person and making fun of people probably wouldn't seem cool. Trust me though: holy weird. In fact, when the cashier asked me how my server was and I replied "Um...different?" she commented that they had had a lot of complaints. My only question about that is, why is he still working there then? Hmmm...Also, let's face it, the IHOP in Abilene is dirty. It just is. As far as the food, well, the whipped butter on the pancakes is always my favorite! And it's difficult to make pancakes horrible--I mean, I've had much better pancakes (at my house, for one) but I wasn't throwing up eating these. And I ate them all. So. Bad servers, dirty establishment, acceptable food. Yep, two stars. read more

Our waitress was Sammi. She was training new employees, so a bit distracted, but still good, and very friendly. A kitchen issue with our pancakes prevented 5 stars - not HER fault. Food was good, but I didn't get my pancakes until about 4 or 5 minutes after I had already finished with everything else. Was almost ready to pack my lip with Copenhagen, and make my exit. read more

I ordered the two-egg breakfast that came with two pieces of bacon and hash browns. Eggs were cooked to order (over-easy) and were tasty, as was everything else. My dining partner got different waffles than what was ordered. Waiter never came back after food was delivered except to drop off the check... my beverage had to be rationed. read more
