Johns noted that while there is demand for IHOP in cities, franchise operators have generally found it prohibitively expensive to open those restaurants - which are usually over 4,000 square feet - in urban areas. For now, Johns isn’t committing to a total number of Flip’d locations, but hopes that there will one day be “hundreds and hundreds and hundreds.” The first Flip’d location will be in Atlanta, and Johns expects to open more in cities, including New York, Washington, Denver and San Francisco. The to-go format should work well in cities, he said. The restaurant will also sell espresso drinks and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Customers can also order online or cater meals through Flip’d.

Ditch the ranch and substitute turkey bacon.A rendering of a Flip'd by IHOP restaurant. Grilled chicken breast, avocado, lettuce are all solid, healthy ingredients - it's the bacon and buttermilk ranch that make it dicey. Like the Bennie, this sandwich borders on unhealthy, but we still think it's a relatively good option. Beware: The calories start to add up, depending on which dressing you get.Ĭalories: 25 Grilled Chicken, Ranch, & Avocado Club The salad, made up of greens, tomatoes, and red onion with your choice of dressing, is basic AF, but at 25 calories, also light AF. It may come as a surprise, but the salads at IHOP are not as light as they should be (the Chicken & Spinach for example, has 1,080 calories) - except for the house salad. Some soup selections include Roasted Chicken Noodle (170 calories), Loaded Potato with Bacon (370), and Minestrone (150). Little-known fact: IHOP has soups, though selection varies by location, and they're about the lightest things on the menu. To make it slightly healthier, you can substitute egg whites and skip the cheddar sauce, bringing it down to a more acceptable 500 calories.Ĭalories: About 500 with egg whites and no cheese sauce (790 regularly) This Bennie is made of two slices of grilled brioche topped with roasted turkey, scrambled eggs, tomato, white cheddar sauce and avocado. Though the name would lead you to believe this dish is pretty healthy, it's pushing it as far as calories are concerned. * Calories: 490 without mashed potatoes (670 normally) Turkey & Avocado Bennie The dish includes two fillets over spinach that's tossed in an Alfredo sauce, and it comes with a side of mashed potatoes that you can easily (or not so easily, depending on your willpower) omit to cut another 180 cals. We know you don't go to the International House Of Pancakes for tilapia, but if you're trying to eat healthy, it's not the worst option. So if you must eat some flapjacks at least make sure to limit yourself to three, because really, that's all you need. Okay, sure, pancakes are definitely not healthy or light, but sometimes the temptation is too real and you need those IHOP pancakes like Paula Deen needs butter.
