What are IHOP and Denny’s Christmas Eve hours?

There are some foods that we can’t resist no matter what day of the year it is. And breakfast foods are at the top of our list, especially on Christmas Eve. But where are we going for these delicious plates of pancakes, waffles, omelets and more? IHOP and Denny’s of course!

But in particular, we need someone else to feed us on Christmas Eve, and if breakfast is your meal of choice (no matter what time of day it is), then Denny’s and IHOP are likely at the top of our lists.

I know when I want breakfast (that I don’t have to cook for myself), I want IHOP and Denny’s. And that leaves me wanting to know what the hours of operation might be for both of these restaurants when it comes to Christmas Eve.

So just how lucky will we be on December 24?

Christmas Eve hours for IHOP and Denny’s in 2021

First we are turning to IHOP to check on their Christmas Eve hours. And according to The Pioneer Woman, they are open, but the holiday may impact how long they are open. Some restaurants may close by 10 p.m., while others may close earlier (or later). It really all depends on the restaurant and their staffing. This means, we recommend calling ahead if you are looking for a meal later in the day/evening.

But in terms of Denny’s and their Christmas Eve hours, The Holiday Schedule is reporting regular business hours on December 24. However, that does not take into account any staffing issues a restaurant may have, as that has been a problem throughout 2021. And even though they are reporting regular hours, we still recommend calling ahead, just in case.
