Dare I say, the best breakfast I've had in awhile! Simple fare, well cooked and served with a smile. The senior section is somewhat hidden on the menu, but if you're eligible, look for it. The 2+2+2 is a good choice for someone who likes a little of this & that. Eggs over easy were cooked just as I like them, and IHOP's signature pancakes hit the spot. Flavored syrups are no longer left on the table, but ask and they'll bring out what you'd like. Our server, who may have been the manager, I think his name is Dave -- is great! Eager to please and efficient, with a spark of humor. Coffee, brought out in minutes, is 'de rigueur' at 6:30 a.m. Good and strong! read more

IHOP - Senior 2+2+2: eggs over easy, ham (or bacon and sausage), and pancakes - American Near Me - Bristol, Virginia

Great Customer Service thanks to a Kathrin, who made our visit memorable. She had an infectious smile that lit up the atmosphere around her. She was attentive and quick with service of coffee, meal and to go coffee. Thanks Kathri! Keep bringing all of you to work everyday. My husband and I enjoyed your attention to your customer. The welcome and the exit matters. thanks for making it special. clean location, great customer service and food service timely. read more

My server Kathryn was great. What I have a problem with is the Grill cook. He is VERY unprofessional. He made my poached eggs incorrectly and undercooked and Kathryn ( my server) kindly asked him to remake it and he refused. He was cussing at her calling her a Bitch and that she was stupid. Nobody should have to go to work and have to deal with getting bullied and being called out of their name. Luckily the manager Frankie made my eggs and they came out great. I believe the cooks name was Thatius. As I was going to pay for my food he kept repeating in my face that he " never fucked up my food or anyone else's". He was calling the black worker there a "Nigger" I've heard that he is a manager and if that is true. This ihop is going down hill. I wouldn't be surprised if the servers quit. read more

this place used to be amazing. the last three visits has been nightmares. from a cook yelling and cussing that you can hear throughout the store because he messed up an order. too today visit. out multiple drinks placed order when drinks bought yet they had no potatoes no broccoli no veggies at all. when advised we was just going to leave she tried to charge us for the untouched drinks. then when I ask for manager she cussing through the store loudly. before screaming across the restaurant for us too just leave. do yourself a favor go to the other ihop in Bristol. it's actually ran by someone that knows how to run a business read more

Always a great place for Breakfast. The prices never seem to change and the portions are worth it. Haven't had lunch or dinner in several years but do visit for breakfast a lot. read more

I wish I could give zero stars. I am a 20 year US Army Veteran who served 3 tours in Iraq and my son ate this evening at this restaurant with his girlfriend. My son showed his military ID when paying his bill and the waitress took his ID and said it was a fake. She then took my son's ID to the kitchen and their whole staff started getting upset saying it was a fake. I assure you his military ID is real, but the funniest part is, my son paid his tab with his USAA debit card. C'mom, you can't even make this up. * I can upload my DD214 if IHOP questions this. read more

They refused service because we had a party of 6 this is unacceptable when their is no one else at the restaurant

Service was bad. The table was dirty with food and drinks spilled and the hostess sat us at the table. When we asked for it to be cleaned she stated we would have to ask the waitress to do that. I'm sorry I will not sit at a dirty table. We got up and left and went to Perkins. read more

Stopped around noon...very happy with meal and service. The hostess warned us up front that they were extremely short staffed and food may take linger than normal, but it really didn't take that long. Our server was great...Brookley. my minion pancakes were the bomb!!! read more

Service was iffy and then we find out we were charged 14 dollars for coffee among the 3 of us.

IHOP is one chain restaurant I will go to when I'm out of town. My favorite, the Colorado Omelet. Stuffed full of roast beef, sausage, bacon, cheese, peppers, and onions, so awesome!!!! A side of crunchy, yummy hash browns, and a side of their Steakhouse Bacon. Caramelized bacon, I mean, food utopia, amazing!!!!! Love this place! read more

We had a 5 star breakfast, but I had to give 4 stars because they were out of ranch dressing!?!?! You should never run out of ranch dressing, sorry but no excuses for that . However, the food and service were outstanding. And everything was nice and hot. I had the spicy poblano eggs Benedict and was blown away. The veggies all tasted fresh and the flavors meshed nicely with my crispy hash browns. Everyone else had basics, chicken sandwich, onion rings, blueberry pancakes, and they cleaned their plates. Our server Nahveah (sp) was genuinely friendly, happy and made sure we had everything we needed. It's right off the highway near The Pinnacle, so it's also a good location. I'd go back for the eggs Benedict for sure. They were a real surprise, props to the chef. ‍ read more

Tavin and Mr. Gagne helped us out after a long day of traveling and prepared us a fine meal to go. Knowing we were traveling they added some extra wet naps and made sure we had ample silverware and napkins. Genuinely wonderful guys, promote both of them, they really made this trip special. read more

My wife and I absolutely enjoyed our meals and the staff was wonderful and we enjoyed our experience with IHOp

BEST PANCAKES i loved the food they gave me a FREE coffee too

I get the same thing whenever I go to IHOP. I went to a location in Aiken and the server was very friendly and attentive. I like my pancakes on the lighter side and without having to send them back, she told the cooks to redo them because they weren't light enough. When I got them they were perfect! That's stellar customer service when you can recognize the needs of your customers. read more

Passing through Bristol and stopped for breakfast. Lin was very helpful and patient with helping me to build a healthy breakfast. She's very friendly and treats her customers like family. Food was great and just as I ordered. Will definitely return on my next pass. read more

Place is awful if I could give 0 starts I would Food is always cold bugs everywhere I gave it 3 chances but ever time got worser and worser do not recommend read more

We waited for 40-45 minutes, not to be seated, but to get our name on the list. The last 20-25 minutes we spent at the front. We saw what appeared to be a manager and a very inexperienced hostess. Next to us was the line for those who ordered to go, one lady had been waiting over an hour. Names were being listed and written on a kids menu. It was chaos. Then after we finally get a hold of the hostess another individual comes up and says they are not seating anyone for TWO hours because the kitchen is backed up. I understand being busy. I understand the food taking longer. But a couple of things make no sense. If the kitchen was backed up to two hours, you should have known you were in trouble and notified people AT LEAST 30 minutes ago. Second, even if you can't seat people right away you can still take their names down and give them an estimate. Maybe have a real list and not use a kids menu with multiple different lists on it. Information is key for the customer. We should not wait 20-25 minutes at the front of the check in line to speak with a hostess. Only to then be told we wouldn't be seated for two hours at all. Ridiculous. read more

Couldn't be happier! Thanks IHOP for fast, good food. And thanks to our awesome server who took the best care of us. Daughter has peanut allergy and she made sure the cooks were aware and food was prepped carefully. Thank you!! read more

Waited 10 min to be seated. Only 2 ppl were working . 1 on a barstool at the posi-touch. And 1 in kitchen who clearly didn't know what he was doing. 2 employees were at a vehicle . So we left after not being attended to. I see why their rating was low now. read more

Thanks Boone IHOP for the great pancakes... because your host disappeared for over 10 minutes without coming back for the waiting area FULL OF CUSTOMERS, we decided to leave and go to Cracker Barrell and I got some great pancakes and were actually sat and served food like is supposed to happen. I may have been more understanding but A. There only 4 tables of customers sitting at tables in the restaurant area. B. This is my 4th trip to this IHOP since they opened...... I've still not had any food from this restaurant. 2 times we ordered food with my toddler (at those times) and they forgot to put out order in. Now 2 times they have took so long to seat us that we have just gave up and left. I will NEVER STEP FOOT INTO A IHOP AGAIN. read more

IHOP - Pancakes I went to Cracker Barrell and got because we couldn't even get sat with only 4 tables of people in the whole restaurant - American Near Me - Bristol, Virginia

Good for a quick breakfast but that's about it. Staff was not very friendly, and our waitress was actually sort of hard to understand due to the language barrier. The food was ok. They had gluten free options which is why I wanted to go. The gluten free waffle was good but could've been done a bit more. For the price you pay, you really don't get an equal amount of food. & there was an hour wait however, when we came inside to be seated there was 15+ open tables but a huge line outside. read more

International House of Pancakes is amazing, good service, not a long wait either! All of this along with amazing all day breakfast is a combination for pure success. It will take you longer to eat the food than to wait for the food, which is a phrase I can't say for many other restaurants, I wish I could eat here more often. read more

The service was terrible. No one waited on us once we were seated. A server kept walking by and ignored us. The manager took our order. It was wrong when it finally came out. People were seated after us and got their food before we did. No one checked on us at all. This ihop in Bristol is by far the worst I have ever been to. read more

I don't know why they opened back up for 24 hours if they only want to pay a shoestring staff on a Saturday night. Its Saturday the 3rd after midnight the night of July 4th fireworks. 1 waitress over 70 moving as fast as she can, 1 waitress who it appears to be her second day to ever wait tables and 1 cook. We waited 40 minutes from the time the waitress took the order until we had the other waitress check on it and she just yelled from the middle of the dining room where only 5 of us tables were left because everyone else had walked out. He said he was still cooking it. She said it would be hot. We told her we were leaving. He yelled back that it was fine and he really didn't seem fazed at all. Poor guy had probably been dealing with that crap all night. It is unfair to put your staff through that. They are the face of service that socks! We won't be back! read more

Passing through Bristol, VA and was excited to see this IHOP close to my hotel. It was very clean. We were seated immediately. Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was hot and fresh and so was the coffee (a must)! I had eggs over easy with bacon and sourdough toast. Everything was cooked just the way I wanted it. Don't hesitate to stop here for breakfast. read more

I had had a very rough day, and asked the manager for a quiet corner to try to relax. He put me off to myself, and the waitress quickly took my order. The food came in good time, and was just how I ordered it. It was a very good dining experience overall. read more

I've pretty much stopped going to this IHOP. The food is usually pretty decent, but getting a waitress at night who actually does their job instead of gossiping with the other girls or one who doesn't have a terrible attitude is so few and far between. Day time staff is much friendlier, but I usually end up there late at night when I go. read more

I ordered through door dash a, "build your own omelette" with pepper jack cheese, onions && green peppers. The omelette was quite large, but didn't have much - if any of the onions and green peppers inside. It was more of a cheese omelette. It tasted good. Although my biggest issue was with the onions and green peppers that was sprinkled on top. They were cold. I don't know if they were previously frozen and thawed or maybe just in the fridge but there was no heat in the onions and peppers whatsoever. The side of hash browns was okay. read more

Good food if you have time to wait. You wait for drink orders. Wait for food order and let's not even review wait on food prep. Not the kitchens fault but waitress. Come prepared to just wait on everything and don't expect great service, just good food. read more

IHOP set the expectation to one hour. After being sent down we attempted to order a drink and food at the same time I was told by the waitress that she was leaving (after 10 hr shift) and can only get our drinks. We waited another 30 minute without anyone asking for our order. We decided to leave and go to Steak 'n Shake in which we ordered our food in 2 mins, since the had the staff to handle xmas day. Back to IHOP, I have been here multiple times and the food is good. I only leave reviews when it crazy good or bad. So, IHOP, you are on I81 and limited places to eat on XMAS, staff your restaurant or closer read more

IHOP - American Near Me - Bristol, Virginia

Had to wait over 30 mins for uncooked eggs, burnt pancakes, and dehydrated hash browns. Very disappointed in this Ihop.

My vistto to this IHOP on 6/22/19 was the worst experience I have ever had. My fiance her daughter & myself where seated & I started looking around the dinning room at all the dirty tables 5-6 that had not been touched we hadn't been seated a minute our server came took our drink order & gave us a minute to look at the menu then took our order as we were wating some came to clean off the table that was behind us so they could seat another party & my fiance noticed they put everything from the table they were clean on the table behind it that was dirty not even trying to clean up the dinning room just make room for some other people to sit down this happened a few times while we were there our food arrived so we began to eat my fiance noticed her burger was missing the bacon & her daughter only got one out of the two mashed potatoes she ordered witch she sent back because they were unstable she had a refined of her drink as I later learned that she had to get our servers attention to get it as much fiance & I didn't get a refill so when we get the check were charged for bacon on my fiance's burger that she didn't get so we got that taken care of & the manager walks over to ask how everything was & she was shocked with the reply she got when I said I think it sucked as it did the service as well as a nasty dinning room I wish I could put zero stars I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone this wasn't the first time we had went there but it was our last read more

Strawberry waffle breakfast was cold and not fresh...took a long time to get served...maybe that explains why it was cold and not fresh tasting ... read more

2 is being generous. Food took too long, eggs done wrong. A smidge of coffee in pot when refilled it, was not even warm. Brought food for 2 out separately so let mine get cold while waited on dinner companions meal. Definitely not worth the stop if there's another closer. Update: on leaving the manager checked us out, apologized about service and took 50% off bill read more

It is a good place but one of the waiters was a bit rude to me he said I would never give my children a phone till there 19

1 star because you can't give zero stars. Every time we go in the host is never up front so you have to wait for her to pay attention enough to seat you. Then when we're seated it always takes forever for someone just to get our drinks. Seems to me they're to busy doing something else then dealing with costumers. Not to mention they employees smoke cigarettes by the front so sometimes you have to walk through a smoke cloud before entering or leaving. Definitely not going back and wouldn't recommend others going either unless you want a bad experience. I never leave bad reviews but after going here a handful of times the experience is never good thought I should give people the heads up. read more
