- IHOP is betting that alcohol will get you back into its restaurants.
- A liquor menu is being tested out in three locations in San Diego, California, and New Mexico.
- The chain will offer local beers, wines, and mimosas. Big brands like Budweiser, Blue Moon, and Corona are also available.
- IHOP president Jay Johns said, "We see this launch as part of our continued prioritization of the p.m. day part, with hopes of attracting new guests during different times of the day."
- There's hope that the Bubbles, Wine, and Brews menu will be successful enough to expand to other parts of the country by the end of the year.
