On March 4, 2025, IHOP is celebrating National Pancake Day by offering guests a chance to enjoy free pancakes. This annual event not only lets pancake lovers indulge in their favorite breakfast food but also serves a greater purpose. Guests are encouraged to make a donation to the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and other children’s hospitals. Last year, IHOP raised over $4 million during this event, and they aim to surpass that goal this year. ‘It’s about more than just pancakes; it’s about giving back to the community,’ stated Kris Faussett, IHOP’s Chief Marketing Officer. From 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., diners can enjoy a complimentary short stack of pancakes, with the opportunity to donate any amount to support pediatric healthcare. IHOP began this tradition back in 2006 and has since donated over $30 million to help children in need. As the event approaches, fans are abuzz on social media, sharing their excitement for their favorite pancake dishes. IHOP is also introducing a special offer for those who donate during National Pancake Day — a $5 off coupon for a future dine-in visit will be provided. ‘We are passionate about pancake goodness and giving children a chance at a brighter tomorrow,’ Faussett added. This event not only highlights IHOP’s commitment to hospitality but also reinforces the importance of community support.
