How does IHOP cater to a variety of dietary needs?

IHOP caters to a variety of dietary needs by providing both gluten-friendly and vegetarian options. This approach acknowledges the growing demand among customers for menu flexibility that accommodates specific dietary restrictions. The availability of gluten-friendly choices allows individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease to enjoy meals without risking their health. Similarly, vegetarian options ensure that those who avoid meat for dietary, health, or ethical reasons have satisfying meal choices at the restaurant. This commitment to a diverse menu helps IHOP appeal to a wider range of customers, making the dining experience more inclusive.

In contrast, limiting the menu to only vegetarian options or sticking solely to traditional dishes would not sufficiently meet the diverse needs of all customers, while focusing exclusively on seasonal specialties may not offer the year-round variety that patrons seek.
