There's nothing quite like a Christmas morning spent unwrapping presents, but it’s even more special when paired with a delicious, nostalgic breakfast. The Drummond family swears by Ree Drummond's famous sticky cinnamon rolls, a recipe handed down from her mother. In other homes, it might be a savory Christmas breakfast casserole, while some prefer the simple joy of a stack of fluffy pancakes. After all, who can resist a towering pile of golden, syrup-soaked flapjacks, crowned with a pat of melting butter?
If that sounds as good to you as it does to us, why not indulge at the most famous pancake spot in the country? We're talking about IHOP, of course. There's really no better place to go when seeking out the best pancakes around, which is precisely why we're sharing IHOP's Christmas hours with you today. Plus, the fact that you also have your pick of omelettes, hash browns, bacon, toast, or even a sandwich and fries—and you can order for pick-up or delivery so you don't even have to get out of your cozy Christmas pajamas... yeah, we wouldn't blame you for ordering takeout.
IHOP is usually open 24/7, but does that extend to holidays as well? Read on for all the information you'll need come Christmas.
So, is IHOP open on Christmas in 2024?
Yes, IHOP will be open on Christmas Day and Christmas Eve in 2024. While a representative for the restaurant has confirmed that the chain will be serving guests over the holiday, they also noted that hours may vary by location, so you'll want to check with your nearest restaurant first by calling or using their online restaurant locator tool. Even if your branch is 24/7, that might change on December 25, so make sure to plan ahead.
As far as what to order, IHOP offers an array of Family Feast options that are available to-go. You can grab a Family Feast with pancakes, a Family Feast with waffles, or a Family Feast with French toast. Of course, the rest of their menu is also available for dine-in, pick-up, or delivery. And don't forget a delicious hot chocolate! We can guarantee it's exactly what you need for the holidays.
