A personal favorite, IHOP is one of only two places near campus where you can find breakfast at every hour. If late breakfast is not really your thing, remember, they also have late night dinner options like burgers and fries. If you still want breakfast, but not anything too filing, try the Silver 5. You’ll get five mini pancakes and the perfect portions of eggs and bacon – delish.

4. Jimmy Johns
