I never once saw her stop to just stand around as she was cleaning it changing something or waiting on tables or refills. This is one I will remember as I come back as long as she is there. Thank you for being who you are.“

“I did an online order. We wanted some biscuits and gravy. I ordered three of the 3 biscuits and gravy and two sides of gravy because most places don’t give enough gravy.
First off, the prices were great! Second, we didn’t even use the sides of gravy. They put a lot of gravy on ours. We were so happy!
The gentleman who brought my order to me was so sweet!
We will definitely be going back there to eat in next time!“

“Good Food and Friendly Staff 😋 ‼️“

“Vera, was an awesome server and made the atmosphere enjoyable. food was delicious as usual and came out fast.“

“What a classic US institution! I've heard and passed by many Waffle House locations and finally stopped in for breakfast. Service was 10/10, the atmosphere is ever changing and you have no idea who's coming in next. It's entertaining to be sure. Food was good and inexpensive. The only disappointment was I thought the waffles would be fluffier - like a Belgian waffle I suppose. However, everything was tasty. If you've never been to a waffle house, it's a must do. Especially at 2am 😜“

“Everything was good. All except for they have really uped their prices practically double of what it was a little while back. Granted we don't go there that often, but 2 senior breakfast meals at $27 is just a bit much. Doubt if we go back to any IHOP restaurants to eat again“

“I am not certain what parallel dimension these negative reviews have crawled out of, nor what bleak psychic tundra the detractors inhabit. Perhaps they come from a world where joy has been outlawed, where pancakes are served without hope, and where the soul is fed only on the gray dust of human disappointment.

But here, in this IHOP, on this unassuming evening, I encountered something bordering on the miraculous.

I ordered the coffee-cake pancake combo — two eggs, one bacon, one sausage, hash browns, and an orange juice. A simple meal, yes, but simplicity can reveal the cosmic foundations of existence. The pancakes arrived like warm geological strata, sugared with the kind of sweetness that makes you remember childhood before the first disillusionment. The eggs, pristine, glowed with the quiet resilience of creatures that never lived to see the cruelty of this world.

Kelly and Hailey guided me through the experience like benevolent spirits of the American roadside. Their humanity, their small kindnesses, more than atoned for the Sisyphean atrocities I once endured at the IHOP in Boulder, Colorado — a place I speak of now only in whispers, as one might reference a failed expedition up K2, where many good men were lost.

This IHOP, in contrast, was alive. Hopping, you could say — though that word is too light for what I witnessed. A full theater troupe entered, radiant with the madness of performance, and the staff absorbed their entropy with grace. It was as if, in real time, they were turning the tide of positivity in the universe, defying entropy through the sacred ritual of service during the dinner rush.

Here, in the fluorescent glow and the aroma of frying batter, I found not despair, but a portal — a gentle opening in the fabric of the mundane, reminding me that sometimes, even in the vast indifference of the cosmos, breakfast-for-dinner can be a form of salvation.
