Though traditionally known for its pancakes, the International House of Pancakes (IHOP) has carved out quite a name for itself in the breakfast game. If you've ever rolled into an IHOP with your homies after a night out, then you know the breakfast sampler is the ultimate hangover cure. 


But did you know that on top of the chain's extensive breakfast options, it also offers a happy hour menu where you can get discounted breakfast, lunch, and dinner deals? Here's everything you need to know about the IHOPPY happy hour, including what's included, and how to make the most of it. 


What Is IHOPPY Hour? 

IHOPPY Hour is a happy hour at IHOP that offers discounts on IHOP breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks Monday through Friday. Though hours and specific deals vary by location, it typically takes place from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. The IHOP deals typically include reduced pricing on favorite dishes, sides, and beverages. 


"I just got this giant omelette and three pancakes for an unbelievable price of $7," TikToker @jackflood says in the video below as he points out IHOP's happy hour menu. "I'm gonna come here every single day after training. We have to spread the word — this is insane." With nearly 200,000 followers on the social media platform, Flood is a decathlete with the U.S. national team.
