null - IHOP is bringing back its $5 all-you-can-eat pancakes, the latest restaurant chain with a budget-friendly offer to lure in price-conscious diners.
The restaurant chain known for its fluffy pancakes and other breakfast classics began offering the all-you-can-eat deal this week and said it will be available through Sept. 15 at U.S.-based locations.
The offer is for dine-in customers only.
IHOP diners can also get the all-you-can-eat pancakes deal for free when ordering any breakfast combo, the company said.

Restaurant industry faces inflation-wearing customers
IHOP is among the major restaurant companies that are dealing with i-weary customers who appear to be eating out less often.
Last month, McDonald’s reported that sales had dipped for the first time since the pandemic – and in May, the burger chain launched a new $5 meal deal to help lure in customers.

Other fast-food giants have done the same, including Sonic’s $1.99 menu, Burger King's $5 "Your Way Meal," and even Starbucks with a lower-priced "pairings menu."
