IHOPs are notorious for their narrow booths.
Most IHOPS are in a small dining area to begin with. They tend to jam a lot of tables a booths into this small space.
Maybe they think we the customer sees this as ‘cozy’.
I see it as too close to other diners.
Close enough to hear them smacking their pork saugages.
Are there any TGIF’s anywhere anymore?
Only went to one once. Years ago. The food was adequate. As any chain restaurant food is.
But the tables! They were inches apart.
I hate being able to (forced to) listen to conversations from other tables. Especially tables 2 and 3 tables from mine.
I never went back.
