It's National Pancake Day 2025. I was expecting it to be a madhouse here, but I was seated right away. People were coming and going ppreet efficiently. I was asked to make a donation to Feeding America before being seated, since they're sponsoring the day. I was seated near the front so I couldnt see how big the restaurant was. I like my pancakes well done, but this is the first time I've gotten pancakes here where parts were a little crispy. The butter and syrup helped balance it out. Service was prompt and there wasn't a long wait. read more

Ordered for pickup, barely given food with such a huge container youd think they would add the same amount they do as in eating in person! Just suprised. read more

On a friday at noon, we decided to visit IHOP on Route 27 in Franklin Park. Maybe 10 other customers were there. Had to wait about 10 minutes to have someone at least take our drink order.Ordered decaf tea with lemon and an iced tea. We were brought regular tea with half and half milk. Trying to get our waitress, another one asked if she could get us something, and was told they do not have decaf tea , so we asked for lemon and was brought milk. After placing our order, burgers without buns , we were brought dried out burgers with buns. While eating, we were constantly swatting little black flies/gnats. Never did a waitress come to see if we needed anything else or is anything was all right. Another waitress brought us the bill. I asked to speak to a manager, of whom came to our table and could care less about our concerns. HE said that when we returned we could have a discount...do you really think we would come back???!! We paid the bill, as HE had no customer care and left. STAY AWAY!! You would think , since you never see this place having more than 20 people in it, they would try to up the service and the attitudes..NOPE! Besides the bad service the food was just as bad. The IHOP on Route 1 in North Brunswick is a much better choice! read more

Very disappointing experience from the moment we were seated. There was a horrible smell & we had asked to change tables. The hostess told us it was from some kids eating popcorn. The smell was not that but smelled more like dirty mop water. After being reseated none of the utensils were clean. I had a fork that still had someone's left over eggs on them. We ordered drinks & 1/7 of the drinks were correct. Needless to say my family & I left to find somewhere else to eat. read more

Who can argue with IHOP's pancakes, they're fantastic. The only problem is there's no one here to argue with. IHOP may just have gone AI and robotics one better and staffed their restaurants entirely with ghosts and poltergeists since there's seldom any visible staff inside. As soon as you're seated, everyone disappears. If the batter's made maybe I'll slip into the kitchen and grill a stack or two myself... I suspect the good news is I'm relieved of the tedious obligation to pay. Hey, where's my tip? read more

I had to leave the place. Everyone literally not a single soul bothered to help me take my order. Everyone kept passing by but nothing. So I decided to leave. I will never come back to this specific location. read more

This IHOP is less than 5-minutes from our home. It's a newer IHOP so it does look cleaner and more updated than other IHOPs we've been at. I think it's weird that their kids meals don't have a choice of juice beverage included without a surcharge. Service is okay and food is cooked as requested. read more

IHOP - Kids Silver Dollar Pancakes - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

Usually have a good time here. Today pancakes were cold. Ordered a garden veg omelette and asked to replace broccoli with the peppers/onions and told it's an upcharge. A vegetable for vegetable should never be. Especially since broccoli is more expensive in the stores. Asked for light cheese on omlette and it was loaded on top. Just not a good experience this morning. Serve was great. Not her fault at all. Kitchen needs to listen to requests. read more

This was good for an IHOP. Not that I don't love IHOP, I just never find them to be a 5 star experience. The server was nice and the place was pretty calm and clean for an IHOP at 2pm on a Sunday. My favorite part, which applies to all IHOPs, were the newer additions to the menu. By the IHOP Creations. I had the pancake sliders which were breakfast sandwich with pancakes as the bun. They had a few other creative options too like the ultimate waffle stack. I'm actually interested in going back to try and few more. Good experience read more

IHOP - grilled Cheese-Crusted Four-Cheese Melt - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

Whenever I'm in the area, I like to come here. I'm a gal that believes that breakfast is good for any time of day. To find a place that does just that rocks! Now, I know this place is known for their pancakes and breakfast (which is what reeled me in), but I have to admit that the mozzarella sticks helped seal the deal. They're crispy and cheesy and yummy. So next time, order up some eggs and hash with a side of mozz sticks - and let me know what you think. :) read more

I like this IHOP and it's my default breakfast place when I am too lazy to be a foodie about it. Comfortable and simple. This IHOP is actually busy most of the time. Usually when I come there is a short wait of like 5 or so minutes. Service is usually good and I can't recall a bad experience personally. Most chain restaurants are usually a three in my mind. Just standard fare. So it's not bad I'm giving it three, it's just standard place and nothing bad really. Because it's a chain it gets a bad rap but I have to say I'm always happier with my dish than I expect and I really enjoy wolfing down whatever I ordered. IHOP I get you and I will always appreciate your existence! read more

It's good wish I got to eat there more but now there's not one that's really close to me. Love the bacon and waffles.

I really like iHOP. I know, I know it's a chain and it's nothing too special. But those lazy Sunday/Saturday Mornings where I don't feel like traveling far. I really like heading to this iHOP in Franklin Park. The line sometimes is long but I've never waiting more than 20 minutes. If you go earlier or after brunch time, there's hardly a wait. For better or worse, the calories are listed on the menu, so you know exactly what you're getting yourself into. They have a myriad of breakfast and combo options to you can always find the perfect breakfast that will fit your needs. Be it waffle, crepe, pancakes, eggs, sausage, omelets, or bacon. Also their vanilla coffee is awesome! Today I got the double blueberry pancakes, hash browns, two bacon strips, and two eggs sunny side up. It really hit the spot! read more

IHOP - Double Blueberry Pancake Combo - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

If I could rate this place a zero (0), I would. We had the worst server we have experienced (almost for the feel of being prejudiced as observing her behavior with other tables it was clear she could be nicer). She had way too many rules than I have heard of at other iHops. When we got to the restaurant, there were 2 other tables. 20min later our food totally cold (eggs, pancakes, potatoes, everything). It took another 20 min to get the attention of our waitress. When we complained to her we were told they were now busy and we needed to wait a long time if we wanted to replaced the food. Naturally we left without eating and they did credit our food - but to waste a couple of hours on a Sun morning and to return still hungry is totally unacceptable. read more

I love this place. The food is good. I can never finish my whole meal, the pancakes fill me up, and they are so good. The omelettes are amazing and I get them just the way I like them. I always order from home and pick up my order, so I haven't had interaction with servers. However, the employees at the door and taking orders have given excellent service. The ambiance seems very pleasant. I get a calm feeling when I go in. read more

Always a good breakfast that is reasonably priced. We have always had great customer service in the store at Berlin.

We had a lovely experience at dinner. The waiter was attentive without being overbearing. Our order came out quickly and correctly. It tasted great too. I would definitely recommend this restaurant! The menu focuses on traditional breakfast dishes, which are available all day. But there is also a nice assortment of other choices. We all had breakfast dishes which tasted great! There are often coupons available in various weekly mailers I receive. read more

Terrible service. Staff is extremely rude even the manager. They REFUSE to respect mine and my families vegetarian diet. I ask for hashbrowns well done and they are barely cooked. Burnt toast. This is not a one time occasion either. By far the worst ihop i have ever been to. read more

I've been going to this IHOP location for about a few months now. Every time I return the staff and atmosphere never seems to disappoint at all. I've ordered the steak tips and eggs and smoke house combo for breakfast. Pancakes have been consistent in make and texture. I highly recommend for breakfast lunch and dinner. read more

Coming into this venue, I was impreseed,but once we were sat at a table after waiting at least 7minutes out service wasf a disappointment. We waitinf quite some time b4 our server final came to acknowledge us and take oir drink order. Then she disappeared and drinks never arrived for another wait time of 7-10 minutes, then literally 30seconds later our food order came. Its not just this IHOP, but my eggs were gross. It tasted rotten, my coffee tasted so old and burnt. Yhe best part of todays breakfast here was my water with lemon. read more

I've been coming here quiet a few times in the past year and I must say every time the experience has been consistent. The service is okay and the food is good. I always come here with my son for pancakes for him since he loves pancakes - never had a problem. Prices are average and the place is clean. I continue to come here. read more

Was here on Friday morning with my wife and daughter. Seated promptly, and looked over the menu. Waitress comes over a minute later asking if we were ready yet to order. Said that we needed a few more minutes. She seemed a little put off by this since we had just sat down and started looking over the menus. She then asked if we wanted anything to drink, wife, daughter, and I said coffee would be great. A minute later, she brings the coffee, asked if we were ready yet. Figured go ahead and order since she seemed a little bit annoyed that we didn't order the first time. We ordered our food, and 10 minutes later, we get it. The food was really nothing to rave about. We finished eating, and we get the check. We were charged for 3 cups of coffee instead of the pitcher price! Not sure of this, but she must have decided that since we didn't order right away, she decided to charge us more for the coffee! I've been to other IHOP's, and never been charge for separate cups of coffee before! And the place wasn't even that busy while we were there! Do yourself a favor, and go somewhere else for your dining out. You'll thank yourself that you did! read more

IHOP is a solid 3 stars. This location is a couple of years old. I've been 3 or 4 times. This last time I visited on a Saturday morning. The wait was about 15 minutes. As with all breakfast spots, be prepared to wait on the weekends. I got the smart and fit omelette, I think it was called. I got hash browns instead of fruit as my side. I still felt healthy as I walked out. I was very happy with my choice. Sometimes I'll go for the 1000 cal + choices but this time around I was happy with my healthy option. The coffee was also on point! The service was a little slow this past time but that is expected with a fully busy breakfast diner/restaurant. No complaints. Typical IHOP fare. Go here for a quick breakfast in which you know what to expect. read more

IHOP - The smart n fit omelette with hash browns instead of fruit - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

So you don't walk into IHOP expecting a foodie experience, let's be realistic. That said, they have a lot of reasonably good comfort food options, with a decent selection of options at a reasonable calorie count (not everyone can say that these days). Our server was actually fantastic. I wish I remembered his name, but he was upbeat, regularly checked on us, never rushed us, and was very pleasant. The food was reasonably good. I opted for the choc chip pancakes, which never disappoint. Light, fluffy, nice selection of syrups, all for an overall pleasant experience. read more

I received a mailer notifying me of the Minion Meal, so being a Despicable Me fan, I had to try it! The Cold Gru coffee was generously iced, the hash browns were good, and the sausage links were well-cooked. The scrambled eggs were also pretty good! I enjoyed myself, and the waitstaff was not only friendly, they were very attentive. Five star experience. read more

Isabella the hostess/owner was extremely unfriendly and not courteous. That is not the first thing I want to experience when going to any restaurant. If you're not going to treat your customers well and do not look like you want to be there (it was 10am) then hire somebody else to greet your customers. read more

I think One star is too high of a rating for this particular IHOP. I was there last night with my granddaughters who were so excited to have the elf on the shelf pancakes. Not only was my experience awful due to the fact that the restaurant was empty and it took 15 minutes to get a seat, it took a half an hour to get our food, but the quality of the food once it arrived was poor. My pancakes were crunchy. They were probably old. But the worst part of my experience was the fact that my grandchildren got to listen to awful profanity, cursing, yelling, screaming and laughing from the kitchen staff. The F word was loud and clear. I looked for someone at the front desk to speak to you on my way out, but there was no one. And, there was no one there to greet us when we arrived. I will never ever return to this restaurant again. read more

Well. What can I say. We chose to come to IHOP because of an Entertainment Book coupon on the mobile app. The Entertainment Book is a well established company that cannot offer coupons willy nilly. So for IHop to claim they can't honor the coupon because we didn't print it, when it's clearly a mobile coupon, is ludicrous. To me, and I'm sure others in this situation, this is fraud. Advertising through the Entertainment Book to lure customers in and then not honor their coupon. In the end. They should have just had good customer service and honored the promo. Instead. They did not. Can I give zero stars? read more

Very much enjoyed the place for breakfast with my family. The service was excellent. I really enjoyed Sennea's servicing. He was very knowledgeable cordial friendly warm and was very helpful with the kids. The food was good although the bacon was a little tough hence the four stars and not five. All in all a great experience with the family for Sunday breakfast. read more

I ordered the Big Steak Omelet and the delicious Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate. While the Omlet was tasty. It was stuffed with hash browns and not much steak, which is what I was expecting. The staff was very nice and attentive. My son ordered the Strawberry Cheesecake Stuffed French Toast, which looks amazing I the pictures, but not on the plate. It also wasn't very good. read more

Food here is always great, as is the service. Today (8/14/19) @ 11:30am, the food took almost "30" (THIRTY) MINUTES to get to our table & the restaurant was only 1/3 full. We have received MUCH faster, even when this place was PACKED! (The waitress apologized for the delay, but our stomachs did not accept it!) We were very hungry! read more

Not terrible but not memorable either. I come here sometimes when I'm in the area. Kind of over-priced for the quality of the food/drinks. Omelettes alright. I don't know... not really special to me :/ read more

Worst crayons ever! How are you supposed to color when the tips break off? Plus the maze on the back of the menu is much too easy, a five year old can do it. Food is great, service great.... If that's what you are going for. Never have a complaint going to this IHOP. read more

My kids love iHOP, so had to try this one few times. What I can say is, being a family restaurant they don't have friendly wait staff; specially a middle aged guy. Every time comes with an attitude in his face as if he is doing a favor serving the food. Unfortunately I get him every time I visit there. I even complained few times too with no use. The food quality is mediocre too; not like what gets served in other iHops. Overall I won't recommend the place just because the attitudes of the waiters. read more

New IHOP on Route 27, Franklin Park, NJ. Opened about 3-4 weeks ago. *Absolutely horrible service*. Food served very long after ordering. It was received cold, no appologies from staff. Not all items brought with food (never got my garlic bread with meal, daughter didn't get her cole slaw with meal, my wife never got her broccoli with her entre). Waiter said he was replacement for that table's waitress...prepping us for problems. He wasn't prepared to serve table (didn't know what for soupmy of the day was, didn't know vegetables for the day). Another waitress took forever to replenish my unsweetened Iced Tea. The replacement was the sweetened raspberry which I originally reminded her I couldn't have. I took one taste and immediately had to shout to her about the problem. She could have killed me. I'm diabetic. The entire wait staff didn't have an inkling of showing any interest in pleasing the customer...the woman manager only did after I went to the kitchen to track her down...and still, after seeing all the problems, didn't appologize nor acknowledge the problems. Owner of the place made me do a tapdance to get any sort of comp. He said "but you ate the food, right?" I told him I did out of frustration that it came so late (three quarters of the way the rest of the table already ate...my chicken was served room temperature, the mashed potatoes were actually colder than that; I had them prepare a fresh order for me which took about 15 minutes to make while I watched my family eat their meals and await the items that they didn't yet receive) that I was about to throw up from the aggrevation. He only comped me a small percentage because I started shouting. No interest in seeing a problem resolved to customer satisfaction. In the time my family was there, three couples had arrived, waited and left before being served. Stay away from this new IHOP on Route 27 at the Franklin Park, Kendall Park border at all costs. The food may be good, but the service was about the most horrible I've ever experienced. read more
