  1. Meals are expensive everywhere, because groceries are expensive. We have walked out of the last 3 attempts to eat at Denny’s because they don’t have staffing.
    Last attempt was 1 lady trying to take care of half the tables in the restaurant. So, we went down the road to Waffle House, where they had six visible people behind the bar.

  2. The location in Westfield is in a very high traffic area (Route 32 at 31) and rarely has customers. The food is still fine, but they seemingly have lost the breakfast battle to Panera and various donut/bagel places.

    1. I honestly don’t understand why Denny’s hasn’t embraced being closer to bar and nightlife districts more. They seem to be really focused on being near Interstates and other commuter corridors, but I don’t know how much demand there is for a sit down restaurant in these areas at 3am.

  3. Because there’s a Denny’s close to us we sometimes go there for an impromptu breakfast, but more often than not we will instead drive a bit further to local breakfast joints we prefer. We rarely go for lunch or dinner. Our Denny’s always appears busy, though, so I doubt it will be one of the ones to close.
