THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE WELCOMEOUR STORY
A family business.
A people business.
Our story began with John Anthraper and a belief that a restaurant could be more than a place to eat. It could be a place to belong.
From our first IHOP in Arlington, Texas, in 1994 to restaurants across three states, that belief still guides us. Today, the next generation carries it forward with the same care for our guests, our teams, and the communities we call home.
