I will indeed say hello if I see y'all xx were also staying rpr but not until 2.9.17 for 4 nights, although will be visiting universal the first week

Ihop

Also on the breakfast to do list.

We've tended to go to the one at top of I Drive near turning to Universal. It's always been fine but very busy.

Anyone been to the one on Kirkman?

May give that a try this time as they are both nearby.

Best deal I can see is a free stack of rooty tooty fresh and fruity pancakes for joining the email club.

DD LOVES nutella. They have a new fun do dip pancakes with a nutella dip which I can see her going for. I've got my eye on the cupcake pancakes, hope they are still on the menu.

Just a small Ihop breakfast for the 3 of us last time



I did enjoy the dibbers fave steak tips and eggs so a possibility if i'm in a more savoury mood. DH always goes for some sort of egg and bacon combo with pancakes on the side.

Thank you. Was nice to meet you briefly last October. Hope the plane food is better than the American Airlines offerings we got then

I just binge read your 2015 report.

I'm liking this idea of posting your food photos BEFORE you go - means you can enjoy the food without those awkward "You can't start it yet, I've not take a photo" moments!

Hastily trying to cobble together some sort of plan that is likely to incorporate Universal (but the FOTL hotels we've always used before for 5-7 night stays are eye-wateringly expensive) but we could be in the same neck of the woods as you for some of our stay. I like the look of HHAGG a lot and I've added it to my list, even if it's quite a restricted veggie menu.

Ha ha. We did similar mainly Universal trips Oct 14, Oct 15 and May 16. Lots of the same restaurants, and lots on the to do list this year.

They are well trained and wait for photos before eating. Will take lots of photos again for the actual what we ate bit of the report.

Hash house has a big pancakes menu which would be vegetarian friendly. If any one is pescatarian I really liked the hot smoked salmon and eggs scramble I had last time.

First Watch

This is very near Universal on West Sand lake Road. We've been several times. It is usually runner up in Best Breakfast awards in Orlando Sentinel and is a small local chain. Surprised it doesn't get more mention on the dibb.

It also have a very generous new email club joiner deal on their website of Buy one get one free. What's not to like.



It's take is fresh food and has some healthier options. Plus the usual breakfast options. They also have flavoured creamer for the coffee like hazelnut and vanilla.

It's nice and modern inside, bit different from other places



I love the carrot cake pancake here The lemon ricotta sound good too. And several tempting options for eggs benedict...



And DD has the kids choc chip pancake...



DH always wonders what to have and has something different each time, think he had tacos last time.

Love the idea of the food report pics before you even go!

And as far as I can remember you can order anything up to the value of the rooty tooty breakfast as your freebie at IHOP.
