IHOP is giving away free pancakes this week. Here's when to go

"As the leader in breakfast, pancakes are part of our DNA-so much so that they're embedded in our name. This National Pancake Day, we want IHOP to feel like more than a restaurant. We're getting creative and flipping the narrative, transforming IHOP into the go-to meetup spot to grab a free short stack, settle into a booth, and turn a simple meal into quality time."

"The breakfast chain will be giving out free short stacks of buttermilk pancakes on Tuesday, March 3, from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. That means whether you're in the mood for pancakes for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, IHOP will grill them up for free. The deal is only good for guests who are dining in and other flavors aren't included in the deal-just the original buttermilk recipe."

"For every $1 donated, IHOP says it will provide at least 10 meals to local Feeding America partner food banks. The event is sure to get pancake lovers in the door on March 3. But it's not the first total steal that's hit the chain recently."
