IHOP - Surrey

The title is their motto as you walk into this homey diner. Senior specials are about $10 or less and quantities are huge. The wait staff ensure your coffee remains full and desserts are a guilty pleasure you can afford( go on, have that treat that you never make yourself ! ). Lots of parking and remember the title.

You can't beat IHOP for pancakes. They have great combinations when you order bacon or sausage and eggs where you can have pancakes with choice of toppings. For seniors on Wednesday, they have a Special 2 for 1. You will never be disappointed with the variety of the menu. Service is always great. Staff is friendly.

Friendly Staff, same old food, trying to rush you out the door to get their next customer - the typical IHop experience.

I am celiac and thought (hoped) that during our staff breakfast at iHop I'd be able to find something on the menu. Nothing was marked as gluten- free/ sensitive and the waitress had very few options to offer. When asked if the bacon was gluten free (and if that's what the bacon brand stated on the package), instead of checking she said, " That's how we've been serving it and we havent had any complaints yet." Didnt get the bacon. Stuck with hashbrowns but am pretty sure there's no one in the kitchen who knows about how to cook a safe, gluten-free item by the experience I had. Won't go back as I know Ricky's Restaurant has always been an excellent gluten-free experience for me.

My husband and I shared a BLT, they were kind enough to put it on two plates with a generous portion of French Fries for each of us. Very tasty and I enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate with whipped cream on it. I think at $2.99 a cup, one refill would be nice. Price is steep for a small cup of hot chocolate, but it was good. We usually share meals because it's more affordable to eat out and usually enough to satisfy us. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. Seems to be a very popular place as there were lots of folks waiting to be seated.
