IHOP may be known for its pancakes, but the chain is now taking a stab at sandwiches with its new Hand-Crafted Melts lineup.
With its new Hand-Crafted Melts lineup, IHOP offers fans a more portable meal option. Each sandwich is made from quality ingredients like all-natural roasted turkey, and served with one of the following sides: French Fries, Onion Rings, 2 Buttermilk Pancakes, Side Salad, or Seasonal Fresh Fruit.
As far as the new sandwich options go, there are seven tasty sandwiches to choose from. This includes breakfast-friendly options like the Ham & Egg Melt, as well as classics like the Cali Roasted Turkey Melt. For something truly indulgent, the new BBQ Mac Melt combines pulled pork with a creamy BBQ drizzle, Sharp Cheddar mac and cheese, Wisconsin Whole Milk cheese, and pickles, all served on grilled, thick-cut bread.
