The IHOP in Phoenix, Arizona boasts a unique addition to the brand’s standard experience. According to a recent article in Nation's Restaurant News, this restaurant is home to a full-service bar named Rise N Shine. A few specialty drinks include the Mulemosa, Blue Roof Bloody Mary and Frozen Rooty Rita.

“This was a unique opportunity that an IHOP franchisee identified and worked closely with the brand to make happen,” said spokesperson Stephanie Peterson. “Some of our most successful innovations over the last 60 years have started with our franchisees bringing ideas forward.”
