First time at a ihop in Denver expectations are high! My server was Alexandro and he was quick and kind with his service and he had Spanish accent. The pancakes where amazing as just like expected from IHOP. I would come here again, since it was early in the morning I had all the attention.

A bit of the vanilla old-school decor with oldies on the sound system, but super friendly staff and decent food. Service can be verrrry slow, so dig in and be ready to entertain the kids for a bit.

All I can say is "wow". I'm from New York, so I know a good brunch when I see one. But never in my life have I been blown away like I was this morning at IHOP. Professional, succulent, vibrant, and mind-blowing are terms that come to mind when asked how to describe my meal. I couldn't help but overhear the couple next to me, where one woman said "that was hands down the best hamburger I have ever eaten. They cooked it well done, yet it is so incredibly juicy and moist." That's not all. This woman was so enamored with her meal, she had the manager called to her table just to rant and rave about the scrumptious meal she enjoyed. I felt the same way. The eggs were luscious and velvety, like eating egg-flavored silk. My sausage links were cooked to a flawless gunmetal gray color, and were plump and moist like a towelette. And those hashbrowns, my god. It was like I had never seen a potato before, i ravenously assaulted those hashbrowns as fast as I possibly could. The piece de resistance was the New York cheesecake pancakes. Now I know a good cheesecake when I see one (Junior's anybody!??!!), but these pancakes were on a whole other level. I felt like Guy Fieri sinking his teeth into the most fantastically delicious thing known to man. These babies were covered in strawberry compote and freshly made whipped cream, with cheesecake that Junior himself would bow down to. My compliments to the chef, it was like discovering food all over again. My sincerest thanks to the fine staff at this establishment, and a special shout out to our lovely waitress, Desiree. What an amazing time, can't wait to come back!

You know what? Sometimes I just want fluffy pancakes in a hurry. As in, no hour long wait to be seated. And IHOP is perfect for a quick breakfast. Not into pancakes or French toast? IHOP's menu is so flipping large you'll have a hard time deciding on anything. You'll also have a hard time eating everything because nearly every option comes with two or three sides. So if you really truly can't decide between the pancakes or the omelette (my breakfast dilemma), you can most likely get the cakes on the side instead of hash browns. Best breakfast in town? Certainly not. But guess what? I like IHOP. It's always consistent across the country, the food is tasty, the coffee is hot, and the servers are friendly. And sometimes, you get a server named Goose. I kid you not. Goose.

The food was alright, but the service was godawful. It took 30 minutes for the waiter to even come ask what we wanted to drink. None of our orders were cooked to preference. The waiter came by one time the entirety of our visit and didn't even offer refills to our empty cups. Also took 10 minutes after we got our food to get silverware. Another waiter knocked 20% off our tickets for the trouble, but I would've already gotten the military discount. When the cashier asked how everything was, and we said the service was awful, the manager just sat there on his phone and then said he'd "talk to his guys". 10/10 would never go there again.

Went with my Mom for breakfast since I had a birthday coupon. IHOP really never disappoints. The coffee was fresh and plenty of it and our entrees were well cooked and tasted good. Service was quick and friendly. Sign-up for their email club for specials.

Never really had great service here, and out last and final visit was terrible. The overnight manger, Dave, insulted the customer who was paying before us and continued his immature behavior with us. We did not receive the check at the table, we went to pay and the manager said we were ridiculous because we wanted the check split, which we do each time we have eaten there. He continued to insult us the entire time we were paying, at one point calling us low lives. The table service was also horrible, we were a party of 4, and never had anyone check on us nor refill our drinks. A table across from us came in a few minutes after us and they received their meal as we were getting ready to leave. I have contacted their corporate office, and completed their survey, they must promote that behavior as no one has returned my email or phone calls. Stay away from here.

We ate here on Sunday morning. I had a burger, which was my first mistake. I should have gotten something different... like pancakes. Ok, so Gustav (Goose) our waiter was meh, ok I guess. He was kind of aloof. So, I order a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings. My wife ordered a steak omelet with toast. I got a burger. No bacon, no cheese. She got her omelet with hash browns. Two meals, two fails. So, she got her toast, and I sent my burger back to get it fixed up. Ok, great!!! NO, wtf, I only got bacon, where is my dang cheese???? At this point, I considered sending it back again, but I fear that I would get more than just cheese on it in the back. However, even if I would have wanted to get a hold of the Goose, he was too busy talking up a table. An older lady a table behind him kept trying to get his attention to fill her water. She tried like 2 or 3 times and was starting to get annoyed. So, then I ate my burger, which was really crappy. I regretted getting it for the entire meal. The onion rings were good. That's it though. Service: 2/5 Food: 1.5/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: This joint is barely a 2/5 Under no circumstances will we go back. Get better food, get better help. End of story.

what can i say- its IHOP. its not the best place on the planet but it's pretty much always consistent (for the most part). i got the eggs (scrambled), bacon (with a side of sausage- and i wonder why i dont lose weight...but thats another story) and pancakes. i gotta say- the pancakes werent as good as they normally are. im sure the recipe is the same for all pancakes so, whoever's on the grill is slippin!! i'm sure i'll stop in another IHOP at some point.

The food here is exactly what you expect. The service at this location is hit or miss. On one visit it was spectacular. On my next visit, it was really bad. If you want a cheap breakfast, go there.

Ihop was pretty good. I had the Breakfast with 2 Pancakes,Sausage,Eggs w Cheese in them i requested that and they did it without a fuss. Bacon, 2 slices of ham and hashbrowns. The Waiter greeted us right away and took our drink order. And when he came back he didnt fret that it took me a while. I prefer Sams No 3 but was pressed for time and this is right by my apt. Added plus brought out warm syrup right before my breakfast came. And my friend had some Superburger thing even though it was 8:30 in the morning. And she asked for it with no bacon he explained that the Burger Patty has bits of ground up bacon inside and he can substitute a regular patty if she would like. I thought that was very nice of him to explain that to her. Again they made the change without batting an eye. She even had to take some home. The only reason i didnt give 5 stars is because they brought me a Large Orange Juice and im used to Sams No 3 where they bring you a whole Carafe of OJ. But other then that the service and food was great. And they may have that option on the menu, next time i will have to check.

During a stay in Denver, breakfast was had at both Pete's Kitchen and IHOP. I also had similar meals at both locations (ham and cheese omelets) .So, this review will be a comparison between the two since they're both fairly close to each other. And like a great Heavyweight fight, boxing scoring will be used. SERVICE: Pete's was fairly slow, although the IHOP waiter was nearly non-existant. He was fairly friendly, but extremely slow. Now, one of the things about IHOP is that they'll set the coffee canteens on the table. Some people grumble about this (along the lines of lazy service), but I think it's a good thing. I tend to like self-checkout lines at the grocery store; this seems like a natural extension. But does that mean I should be tipping less if all they do is bring me my plate? Winner: Pete's, 10-9. FOOD: You know, actually IHOP did a little better on the omelet than Pete's. Or maybe I should be giving the credit to Sysco. Either way, the ham and cheese omelet was a little bit more contained and there was a larger helping of food with the side pancakes. Taste was nearly equivalent. Winner: IHOP, 10-9. ATMOSPHERE: On the one hand it was clean, on the other, atmosphere suffers because this could just as easily be an office building. Or it could be The Office, just less funny. Pete's wins on this account hands-down. Winner: Pete's, 10-7. PRICE: Pretty much a draw. Both of these were cheap meals although I suppose the critical calorie to price ratio would favor IHOP because there was just more food. It's possible that's not a good thing, but it's enough to win this round. Winner: IHOP, 10-9. PARKING: There were parking spots available at both places, just more at IHOP. Again, winning by quantity. Winner: IHOP, 10-9. OVERALL WINNER: It turns out to be fairly close, since the overall meals are actually pretty similar; generic greasy spoon type breakfasts. But like you might expect, Pete's atmosphere is preferable to the fairly generic, stale experience that you get at an IHOP. Winner: Pete's 47-46.

On 3 hrs sleep, got called by a friend who had the day off and said he was headed here. It's one of the few things that could have gotten me out of bed on 3 hrs sleep. Walking in, catchiest 80's background music mix ever here ...(only a few 'losers' in the stack over the course of a meal, and that's something...) Was torn between the strawberry banana danish fruit crepes and the Cinna-stack, "A stack of four fluffy buttermilk pancakes layered with a luscious cinnamon roll filling, drizzled with rich cream cheese icing and topped with whipped topping." I finally settled on the Cinna-stack: it's a damn dessert with the "look-the-other-way-while-you're-ordering-this" breakfast label!!! And I'm sure, a diabetic and caloric nightmare. (Nevertheless it didn't stop me.) I think I took a picture of it and if all went well, it posted here. (And yes -- it really *did* taste as amazing as it looked.) Place was moderately filled up but that didn't stop the hustling waitpeople from delivering quick service here. You can also, of course, order sides like eggs and bacon or whatever your heart desires here. They also have tomato juice, and it's tasty tomato juice, with some salt in it, wedged in between the colas, orange juice and "are you really going to have a shake for breakfast *on top* of that sugary pancake monstrosity?" selections.

We always go to this IHOP pretty late and the service is always still good. They're relatively nice, the food comes out quick, and it's never been wrong yet. I'm a bacon temptation omelet (no tomatoes) kinda girl and he's a pot roast sandwich kind of guy. But all in all, this place never disappoints. In fact, we've gotten drinks before that when we didn't like them, they brought us something else (no charge). If you're a fan of IHOP, you'll like this location.

IHOP locations don't have much variation across the board, and this one is consistent but does just a little bit better than most I've been too. You know what you're getting at a chain like this: Above-average breakfast food, sometimes at prices that are a little higher than the portion of food you get (you see what they charge for a waffle now?). This place is in a good neighborhood and convenient to the interstate. It's open 24 hours and in the mornings I've never seen it crowded. It's very clean. If I'm really having hunger pains at work I can call and place a to go order and by the time I arrive the food is ready. My favorite part is the in-store playlist in which I've heard old school New Edition and a lesser-known Bowie track. That keeps it interesting. If you're really feeling the HOP or if this is the best option for your location and the time of day, you'd be doing pretty well for yourself to stop here.
