We had a lot of fun creating the Pancake of the Month flavors and think our guests are going to love trying the new stacks each month.”

February is not only the launch of IHOP’s Pancake of the Month program, but it is also the month of love… and what better way to celebrate love than with Chocolate Strawberry Pancakes.
