IHOP is giving away free pancakes on Tuesday.

To celebrate National Pancake Day 2018, IHOP is giving away free short stacks of Original Buttermilk pancakes from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The only rule for free pancakes: customers need to dine in the IHOP (no pancakes to-go) and are limited to one short stack of pancakes per customer.

IHOP began its free pancake tradition in 2006.

While the pancakes are free, customers have the choice to donate money. IHOP will send all National Pancake Day donations to local children's hospitals and health organizations. Since 2006, the chain has raised close to $30 million through Pancake Day donations.
