It's been a while since I've been to IHOP, and it was a good experience overall. The wait time for the food was longer than expected but the happy hour deals made up for it! From 2PM - 10PM, there's great $5 and $3 happy hour deals. The spicy poblano omlette was amazing (not a special FYI). Highly recommended though!! read more

OMG! Much baking powder in that waffle?! That's all I could taste. For $9?! Please! A side of greasy bacon. Blecch! The only thing that saved this breakfast was the stellar waitress. I can make my own waffles from here on in rather than eat this garbage. read more

Horrible service and cold food. Over an hour to get food. Amazingly bad. I highly recommend avoiding this place.

Late night eats on a Monday night, early Tuesday morning. We were promptly greeted as we walked into the uncrowded restaurant. Our waiter was extremely nice and attentive to our every need. I ordered the country omelet and as expected from IHOP, it was a homerun. Our waiter even offered warm syrup for my side of pancakes, yummy! I won't hesitate to re-visit this location any day or time due to the awesome service and food we received. read more

I wasn't even surved my food and waited 1 hour and didn't even get my food dont come here go to the one in grove city

Walked into the restaurant at 11:30pm with nobody to greet us. There were 2 other couples that had been sitting for 45 minutes. I asked a server how long the wait was. She threw her hands in the air and said "10 mnutes, I don't know" and walked into the back with no further interaction. Rude! Walked out and won't be returning read more

When we first got there had to wait a couple minutes to get seated. The staff was all confused on what tables were cleaned. After 4 tables we finally got sat at a table. Placed our drink order and the waitress spent 10 minutes looking for something she lost and never gave us our drinks. We got up and left at this point. read more

LOLLL. Literally worst IHOP location in not just Hilliard but in Ohio. Ihop is turning into the next family dollar. They are running short on workers and it's always 2 workers running around with an annoyed face. They don't even want to be there smh. I feel bad for them sometimes. They take at least 2 hours just to serve 2 tables and food is not even that good. do better ihop do better! read more

We did curbside and they forgot items. I called to ask about the forgotten items while still in their curbside area. They came out and took our bag inside. They brought it back and lied and said that the missing item had always been there (they put it right on top and it definitely wasn't there before). They also removed a meal that had been in the bag before and still ended up shorting us a meal. The last was really nasty about the whole thing. Overall it was terrible. read more

I wasn't going to review IHop, but I had a decent breakfast and some pretty good service, so I figured what the hell.... Watching IHop commercials you get the feeling there's nothing healthy in the joint. On my latest weekend getaway to Columbus I was forced to switch hotels because of the NCAA tournament in Dayton and my normal Super 8 (Wyndham rewards are awesome) was booked up. My normal hotel has a Waffle House next door and it's my normal breakfast spot, but this time I settled for Ihop. I was pleasantly surprised that they had whole wheat pancakes, oatmeal pancakes and other heart healthy options, including turkey bacon. I ordered two whole wheat pancakes that were served butter free, topped with fresh blueberries and powdered sugar, scrambled egg whites and I substituted fruit for the turkey bacon. I was very surprised the fresh fruit was completely fresh, no canned anything, fresh pineapple, orange sections, grapes and apples. The pancakes were a manageable size, not hanging off both sides of the plate. My complaint is that the pancakes are about the size of the platter they are served on, so not much room for syrup run off. Lets talk about the syrup for a second, you get four flavors on the table, regular, butter pecan, strawberry and blueberry. I had the strawberry and enjoyed it with the whole wheat pancakes. The eggs were basically scrambled egg whites, nothing special, just a bit of protein to round out the meal. All in all, IHop cannot replace Waffle House in my book, but it wasn't a bad meal at all. read more

It's strange but they built this place right on top of a Perkin's Pancake House. Strange because there are only two of them in a city as large as Columbus. And it just happens that I consider Perkins as the one to beat. So I decided to order pancakes and bacon to see which one came out on top. And it really wasn't close, Perkins beats IHop by miles. It wasn't that the food was bad, it was just that Perkins is that good. read more

See all

Well, I'm going to first base my review on my food, then I'm going to mention what I witnessed with my friend's meal. I ordered the breakfast sampler, which included 2 of everything. Eggs, bacon, sausage that came with ham, hash browns and small stack of pancakes. Standard breakfast stuff that I assume would take no time at all. Well, the food took more time then I thought, even for ihop standards. But I don't know if I was just insanely hungry or if the food was just made well, but I really enjoyed everything that I ordered. For a late night option, I'd come here again if I had the munchies for pancakes. Now onto what I saw with my friend's meal. He ordered a standard soup (chicken soup I think). His wife ordered the same. When both soups came out, the wife's bowl had twice as much soup as the husband. So he let the server know and she took it back to give him more soup. He gets it back, tries the broth, and immediately realizes that all they did was add water. His broth versus his wife's was significantly thinner and watered down. I've had watered down drinks, but soup????? So my food is a 3, but what happened to my friend -3. read more

Walked in at 10:30. No hostess. Stood there for five minutes before someone acknowledged me. Finally a young woman led me to my seat. I sat there for ten minutes before my server carelessly took my order. I ordered an omelette and pancakes which takes 10 minutes to make, 15 tops. At 11:15, I still didn't have my food and realized I was going to be late for work. I walked out and went to Panera. Not surprised to see that this place already has terrible reviews. read more

Every time I've come here, I've just had a bad experience. My friend and I waited for our food for over a half hour. And when we got our food (we got the crepe combo), we got the wrong crepes, and we only got 1 instead of 2 (check the website). Also, we ordered a side of toast and never got it. And before we left, he still charged us full price for the 2 crepes we ordered AND the toast we never received. He told us he changed the bill, but he never did. I just wanted to get out. So not only did he lie to us twice about our meal, but he kept leaving and we were there for at least an hour and a half. Thank you, next. read more

The mecca of sweet breakfast foods (obviously), but only average as a lunch and dinner restaurant. The prices are high, the portions are small, and the line to get in at any time other than middle of the night is like waiting for a roller coaster ride in the summer: you stand in line for an eternity, then realize you're still only halfway there, then you get to the point where you've waited so long you're determined to finish waiting, then just when you decide to give up you're finally there but then the ride you waited all that time for is over in a flash and you wonder if it was worth it. I refuse to wait in line at restaurants so I haven't had this experience at IHOP but I've seen it and heard about it. The breakfast foods are delicious and there are pancakes here you never dreamed of, with flavored syrups to match. Their flavored coffees with the whipped cream like the maple one are huge and delicious. They are open 24 hours and have wifi, which all restaurants should be in my opinion and gives them a huge advantage over most of the other restaurants around. The dinner meals are good too and there's a huge variety, though the dinners are not spectacular and barely worth the high price. I like this place and I would go here a lot more often if it was more reasonably priced and there weren't so many people clamoring to get in. But when it's the middle of the night, or I have a pancake or waffle craving, this is the go to place. read more

I was so excited to hear that an IHop was opening in Hilliard. But I was disappointed fast by the lackluster food and service. Every time I've come here, it has been later after a night out. So maybe that's my problem. But if you're going to have a 24/7 restaurant, I'm sorry, but I expect good service even late. Anyway, each time I've come here, the food is good, but not great. I remember IHop being so amazing when I was younger. And the service was always a lot better. I'll go back maybe a few times if I'm craving some sweet breakfast items, but definitely won't make it a regular place. read more

they'll forget half your order. don't even bother they don't care if the service is bad.

slow seating. slow service. cold food. not fun. We had 2 people in our party and somehow they perceived it as 15 people. our waitress took 20 minutes to approach us. our food took another 30 to arrive, and when it did it was cold. read more

When we come in there is no one in the front desk then we just proceeded and found a table for our self . We waited almost twenty minutes then our server comes she didn't even introduced and already had attitude. She took our order and waited another 25 min. Oh wait the food was so oily I couldn't even eat. I will never go back this place again. I learned our server's name after we paid. It was stated on the receipt. Tegan M read more

I went to breakfast this morning and was very pleased with this IHOP. The hostess greeted me with a smile and seated me quickly. My order was taken a few minutes later and my food was delivered with a pleasant good morning. The food was great and the service was great. IHOP gets a bad rap a lot of times, but this location will definitely be in my breakfast rotation. I had the breakfast sampler. My eggs were spot on. The bacon, ham, and sausage were cooked to perfection as well. I've always been a hash brown fan and these were on point for sure. Worth the stop if you're in the area. read more

I Like IHOP but they do have some oddities. The food and variety of breakfast grub is large and tasty. Service is always a complaint here; although this last time my service was quick, I know that other times it isn't too quick. My wife said that the last time she was there that it was horrendous. They are busy which might be one reason for inconsistent service. The food was very tasty as I ordered something with potatoes, sausage, cheese, gravy, and two eggs. Everything come with the ubiquitous short stack. The meal was tasty and an order again for $7. The coffee on the other hand was not worth the 1.89. I will stay with water instead of brown water. My wife's meal was a little dried out so she wasn't as pleased as I was. So expect good pancakes, decent food with spotty service. read more

Came in at 1am after a concert and the waitress (I believe her name was Erin) was super sweet and did her best at maintaining all her table even though there were far too many for just her. Food was good and was out to us pretty fast read more

I have eaten at this iHop many times and I have never once complained about the food. The customer service at the door is above average but it is a roll of the dice on the quality of the servers at the table. Example: I arrived this morning around 6:50 am and ordered pancakes. Before I finished eating, my server left my bill. She seemed a bit in a hurry but the restaurant was only about 1/4 full. Not long after I finished eating, she walked up and asked if she could "cash me out." I have had this happen when a server at some restaurants are finishing up their ship but this happened after the restaurant had only been open less than two hours. She quickly returned with my credit card and the receipt to be signed and left with a quick and unfriendly "Thank you." Overall, this iHop location is very good. It has steady flow of customers and can be very busy around prime eating times. My only complaint is the inconsistency in the performance of the servers. I eat out about 15 times a week and I know from experience that iHop's server training program deals with the issue I observed this morning. read more

Use to love coming here.. but lately the service has been quite horrible! From waiting to get seated to waiting on some flapjacks and scrambled eggs. I hate to leave bad reviews but, yeah. Food is okay. read more

Super friendly staff, very welcoming. Server Mary was very polite and professional. Coffee was hot and food came out on time. Made my crepes to order and food was great. read more

IHOP never fails to disappoint! I've been to this location 4 or 5 times and every time no matter how few people are here, it never fails to disappoint me. After my most recent visit on 3/8/18, I won't be back. I've given this location enough tries to know that it's not getting better any time soon. I came in for lunch with my husband at 11:30. My first tip off should have been that there weren't many people there considering it was the start of prime lunch time. The host asked what our name was "in case it gets busy". Well sure, but clearly we're the only ones standing here, so I'm not sure how that matters. We were then promptly seated. About 15 minutes passed before our waitress and the person she was training came over. I told the server that we were ready to order and she said "it doesn't make any difference because I won't put your order in until I bring your drinks." I've been a server before and maybe IHOP has a strange agenda to quince our thirsts before we make the heavy decision of what we'd like to eat, but regardless even if this is your process, why are you telling me. Just take the order already. Finally, we wait and wait and we wait. After 50 minutes our food finally arrives, which is great because our lunch hour is about 10 minutes away from being over. My husband and I both ordered our eggs over medium and ordered IHOP's delicious crepes. My eggs were almost over easy. As I stuck my fork into them they were still runny and the topping on my crepe tasted spoiled. The waitress never came back to check how our food was. We finally flagged her down and told her that the food was under done and spoiled. She said she could remake it, but we calmly explained that we had been there over an hour and needed to get back to work. She then said "Never mind don't pay anything!" As she hastily grabbed our plates with forks and knives falling on the table and floor and walked off. This was my last terrible experience at this IHOP. Everyone there (and there weren't many) spent time waiting. I even saw 1 couple finally get up and leave. Every time I've been here the service is always slow; however this was the rudest I've ever been treated and for what reason? Because I expected courtesy, my food in a timely manner and it to be cooked? How dare I?! read more

Not too bad service here. This place has been doing good and staying busy since they opened earlier this year. Been there about 3-4 times and the food has been good. The place can get noisy sometimes with kids, but you will have that at restaurants. Good place to go to if you get a craving for breakfast! read more

I love IHOP. I don't know why. I just do. It is unhealthy (both literally and figuratively). I should seek help. In the mean time I will just have to eat more pancakes. read more

Consistent, good breakfast I've been to Ihops in 10 states that I can think of off the top of my head, probably more. They are all good eating experiences, this location is no exception. I usually am there late at night/early morning so it is peaceful (or rowdy if near a club). Either atmosphere doesn't bother me. Since I like chicken and waffles (and their menu version is not good) I order a regular waffle and the fried chicken platter. I get my sweet/salty fix (kinda pricey that way but oh well). This chain does breakfast right. Even the healthy choice fruit crepe is delicious. read more

Service was okay, staff was all very friendly but I waited about 5 minutes before anybody even came over to me. A few other people around me had a similar experience and we're pretty verbal about it. There seemed to be too many people working as there were more employees visible than there were seated tables. Food was pretty good. For pancakes and eggs it took about 30 minutes to get to the table. Not sure what caused that. All in all, not horrible, but don't go if you're looking for a quick meal. read more

I don't wanna give them less stars because I didn't get my order as I want but I like this store better the one that we have it in LA because it looks clean and quite after midnight and because the waiter was nice I would love to come here again in my next visit to this state ....thanks read more

Very disappointed, we normally go to Bob Evans but 1 day i said let's try IHOP. That trip was amazing. So tonight for date night it was between IHop or Red Robin. Let's just say I choose completely wrong tonight. Not only did we wait 20 min to be seated (1st warning) and no one was in front of us but we got there at 8:16pm didn't get drinks until 8:50pm (2nd warning) didnt get food until 10:03pm, (3rd warning) then u would think with us waiting that long for the food, that it would at least be nice and hot.....OH NO fries were ice cold, pancakes were ice cold bacon was not cooked all the way Hash Browns were cooked as if they threw them on the grill to get a little color BUT was still raw and crunchy on the inside. Husbands BLT was overcooked (like how do u over cook a BLT? U burn the bread thats how), and French toast ice cold THE ONLY items that had heat to them were my scrambled eggs and my husband's omelet. Just VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED. If they were that short staff then they should have said yes we only have 1 cook it will be a more than normal wait time to give the customers a choice to wait or leave. Had they said this when we came in we would have left. On a brighter note the waitress was very friendly and kept apologizing and asking if we needed anything or was there something else she could get for us (besides our food). So she did get my usual 20% tip because I knew it wasn't her fault she wasn't back there cooking. BUT IT WILL BE A VERY LONG TIME B4 WE GO BACK IF WE EVEN DO. read more

The staff was very diss respectful we went in and saw nobody waiting and sat ourselves and waited 30 mins then when we asked to make an order they said we gotta wait till someone wants to take our order or we gotta go wait by the cashier and when we went we had to wait another 40 mins and Nobody came so we just left and wasted a whole hour of my day for nothing read more

Good, but quite expensive for what they serve. My girlfriend and i went there about 3 days ago. We spent about 24 just between the two of us, yes my 18month ate too but his brunch was just $.99. A chicken quesadilla and bacon chz burger with two sodas and wated for the child came to almost $24. We were shocked. The food wasnt bad, not the best, but then again not worth what we spent. Their prices are much like Bob Evans but not as good. May go back another time when we are tired of other places. read more

Went there early in the morning for breakfast. Took about 5 minutes to have a waitress come out to seat me. What there for 15 more minutes while waitresses complain about people having not tipped them to customers that have come in after me. So I went next door to McDonalds as so many others who have written reviews on this website of this particular location have done. This place sucks I would give it less than one star if possible. read more

I love eating here, in the past I've always have had good service. Today I waited 30+ minutes for food while other people around were getting served. I also had to wait 20 minutes for a server to come and take my order. The food was OK but I think it was completely a waste of time and money coming in today. read more

We love this place like every other Saturday night, we are here. The service is normal the place is clean. The food is great. The food is service on time. It's not expensive 5 of us had a big meal for 70 bucks. It's not crowded, we don't like crowds. read more

Staff was friendly, the food was good, and the restaurant was clean! Our waitress, Debbie, was so nice and patient. It was my daughters chosen place for her birthday and we all left happy and full! We ordered three different types of eggs and each of them were cooked as ordered, as was everything else (and we ordered a lot)! They even plated my other child's order on individual plates after we asked that the eggs be on a separate plate. They went up and beyond. Food came quickly and was hot. The front of the house were all nice and attentive. We have so many restaurants closer to us but I am so glad my daughter chose to go here! read more

I ordered door dash and my fruit was forgotten, when i called the store to let them know what had happen, a very pleasant young lady answered the phone and asked if I would like to talk to her manager about the situation. The manager was extremely compassionate and was more than willing to fix my order. Not only that but he drove his personal vehicle over to my work on his shift just to make sure one of his customers was satisfied. I greatly appreciate their generosity and understanding. Wonderful location with amazing customer service! read more

My friend and I wanted to get something to eat after she got off work at 11pm, so we picked IHOP. Granted, we've eaten here before and the service was always decent, but last night it was phenomenal! We sat down and started talking about what we are thinking of reading and a moment later our server, Darby, came to get our drink order. We ordered our drinks and while waiting on them finished deciding what to eat. Our server came back with the drinks and asked if we were ready to order. So we placed our order and continued to talk while waiting for the food. Some time into talking, my friend was almost finished with her drink and out of the blue, our server had brought a new drink for her, which was awesome. Normally, that's about when service for me takes a dive and isn't so great, but not last night. It was amazing! It seemed our food came out quickly and it looked/smelled delicious, which it was! After a couple bites of food the manager, Christina, asked how it tasted at the right moment (not mid bite haha). And we told her it was delicious. By the way, I recommend the banana bread French toast. The whole time there, our server knew exactly how close we were to finishing our drinks and either brought one out just before or right as we finished them. When my friend and I were getting finished eating, our server brought out my last drink and asked (very professionally) how we wanted to handle the check, so we told her how and she said happened to have it ready right then, so she placed it on the table for us and my friend asked for a to go box. Hands down the best service I've ever had! Darby was so kind, polite, and professional! The manager, Christina, was awesome. The atmosphere they created there that late at night was just astounding! tl;dr - if you're ever eating there late at night, ask for Darby, she's awesome! read more
