The Mississippi city known as the Biscuit Capital of the World is being renamed for one day IHOP, Mississippi, in celebration of the national restaurant chain’s new menu.

For the first time ever, IHOP will feature a dedicated Biscuits menu.

Beginning August 28, guests will enjoy a variety of four new IHOP buttermilk biscuit options designed to satisfy guests’ cravings for sweet or savory. In honor of its national debut, IHOP is heading to the Biscuit Capital of the World – Natchez, Mississippi – to celebrate the menu offerings with guests.

For one day only, the City of Natchez will be renamed IHOP and host a celebration inviting local IHOP fans to come taste the Biscuits at 300 N Broadway, Natchez, MS starting at 11:30 a.m.

An IHOP food truck will serve guests the new warm, flakey buttermilk Biscuits hot off the griddle to the first 500 people.

Natchez Chef Regina Charboneau, Culinary Ambassador of American Queen Voyages, crowned “The Queen of Biscuits” by The New York Times and the Travel Channel, will be present to celebrate and further the mission of life, liberty, and the pursuit of better biscuits. With the mission to serve more joy to guests every day, IHOP also will be donating to the local Natchez Humane Society.

“Biscuits are a large part of our southern cultural legacy. What better place to commemorate the IHOP launch than the oldest city on the highest bluff of the mighty Mississippi River?” said Dan Gibson, Mayor of Natchez. “Founded in 1716, Natchez is not only a historic tourism destination, but today’s home of southern hospitality. All are welcome here! And I am proud to be Mayor of IHOP, MS for the day!”

Biscuits are not just a beloved item for breakfast, but also as lunch or dinner options. IHOP is introducing a variety of sweet and savory flavors to meet guests’ cravings, any time of day.

“IHOP’s Biscuits menu is a continuation of our menu evolution that offers craveable and flavorful items any time of day for us. We are thrilled to be in the Biscuit Capital of the World today to debut Biscuits on the IHOP menu,” said Kieran Donahue, Chief Marketing Officer, IHOP. “IHOP’s off-premise ordering continues to account for over 20 percent of our business, and the brand has leveraged this latest Biscuit menu addition to ensure items can be enjoyed whether guests dine-in or take their meal to-go.”
