My husband and I had been on the road from Southwest Virginia to Baltimore since early Friday morning to pick up a car. We had not eaten since lunch, and the dealership kept us well after an appropriate dinner time with paperwork. Very tired and very hungry, we finally left the dealership after 10:30 pm, searching for somewhere to eat. At about 11:20, we left I-70 at the Mount Airy exit, hopeful that the local IHOP would still be open. They were, but they were closing at midnight. We entered cautiously, fearing they would turn us away because of the late hour. Much to our relief, we were warmly welcomed, seated, and served from a kitchen that I'm sure was on the brink of closing for the night. Donnell even made me a fresh pot of decaf coffee, which was greatly appreciated on a very cold night. The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious - there was not a scrap left on any plate! Major, major, MAJOR thanks and kudos to this special restaurant that welcomed and fed two hungry travellers so very late at night on January 23, 2026. We may never pass that way again, but the town of Mount Airy and its IHOP will always hold a special place in our memories of that very long day!

The waitress Ana told us that we could only donate $10.00, when it clearly says on the paper that you can make a donation of $5.00.

Not a bad wait for a Sunday morning at all, the waitstaff were also kind and quick. The food was edible, and that's really all I have to say. I think that there's an issue in the kitchen bc it was all slightly undercooked. Steak was medium rare when I asked medium, eggs were runnier than expected for over easy, and it took 30 minutes to toast one English muffin. The less stellar option was the banana pancakes. Considering it's an IHOP, I wasn't expecting dry pancakes with banana clearly going bad.

My family of 6 ate here. Carlos was great, kind, courteous and constantly cleaned up the trash that all of us had. The whole experience with him was great. And his good manager helped out too!

I was greeted by a warm friendly face and sat right away! To top it off my waitress was the sweetest…my lemon aid tasted funny and she got me a new drink free of charge. I will defiantly visit again
