My Thoughts

My family loved IHop! Its a frequent place we eat, especially when kids get to eat free on weeknights in our area. We were very excited to get to try the new pancakes for the summer.

The new pancakes are:

Blueberry Lemonade

Banana Pudding

Blackberry Peach Cobbler

We tried Blueberry Lemonade and Banana Pudding.

The blueberry lemonade was very tasty. The pancakes have blueberries in them as well and a thick lemon creme on the top. I really liked this combo put together, but I will admit, when I got near the end of eating my pancakes, I pushed the lemon creme off, as I had gotten tired of the rich flavor. But as you can see in my photo, the cook who prepared mine put a lot of lemon creme on. The next time I would request them to go a little lighter when adding it.

We also got the banana pudding pancakes.

This one was really good. My daughter got this for herself, but I stole more then a few bites for review purposes, of course. I think I liked these the best, and the waitress even said this item has been very popular. While it was sweet, it wasn't overly done where I would feel a sugar high after finishing it. There is a light banana creme under the bananas and vanilla wafers.

And the last type of pancake is the blackberry peach cobbler. We didn't try this one, but here is a photo of what it looks like.

We enjoyed our dinner at IHop and I wanted to mention since we dine there a lot, that we did notice a new menu, with several new items on it. As well as a spruced up kids menu. If you're in the mood for some pancakes, give one of these summer stacks a try before they are gone.
