Goth IHOP is a viral internet concept and meme that proposes a fictionalized version of the International House of Pancakes staffed entirely by individuals with a 'Goth' aesthetic. It gained significant traction on Twitter and TikTok around 2020 as part of a larger trend of 'cursed' or highly specific themed restaurants, most notably standing as a rival to the 'Femboy Hooters' meme. The concept plays on the contrast between the wholesome, family-friendly atmosphere of a pancake house and the dark, edgy subculture of Goth fashion. It is frequently used in 'On My Way' style posts or fan art where users express their ironic or genuine desire for such an establishment to exist in reality.
