Today, March 1, is National Pancake Day!

Celebrate National Pancake Day with IHOP!

IHOP will be offering customers who visit participating restaurants one free short stack of three buttermilk pancakes. In addition, they'll also offer the option to donate to the Shriners Hospitals for Children and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for IHOP's first-ever "Month of Giving."

This offer is only available from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

"We know that our restaurants are an integral part of the communities that we serve, and for more than 63 years, we’ve prided ourselves on giving back to where our guests live, work, and play," said Kieran Donahue, Chief Marketing Officer, IHOP. "Our Month of Giving event has an important purpose as every dollar raised during IHOP’s National Pancake Day campaign stays local and supports the nearest children’s hospital associated with the charity partners.” 

IHOP has raised more than $30 million for its charity partners since 2006 when IHOP had its first National Pancake Day.

This year, customers can donate in restaurants on their checks by rounding up to the nearest dollar, with the change going to the charity; through purchasing wall tags in restaurants for a $1 donation; or by adding a donation while ordering online.
