University of Missouri in Columbia, and last semester my friends
and I started this tradition of hanging out at the local Perkins
for coffee, sometimes food, and generally making a nuisance of
ourselves. Then we started staying up later, and Perkins closes at
11, so we started going to Denny's instead. So basically we live
at Denny's. I love your site and am adding it to my homepage
(http://www.missouri.edu/~c665087). Keep up this worthy project!
P.S. I also commend you for not using frames, flashing text, etc.
Two thumbs up."

- "I'm from Toledo too, I understand why you
have so much time. here's a nice little story from the November
1993 spin, 100th issue
SAVE YOUR PORNO MONEY The Bayfront Ampitheater in Miami, Florida,
was the scene of a massive counterfeit-money bust on Aug. 10 when
local police and Federal agents seized well over a thousand phony
$100 bills. Whos face was on each bill? Perry Farrell's. The fake
dough was the propety of Porno for Pyros. Farrell used it as a
stage prop on the band's latest tour, throwing handfuls into the
audience during the performance on the pyros tune "Meija".
Apperently, one fan tried to pass his bil off as legal tender in a
Denny's restaurant in Tampa after seeing the show the night
before. He was caught only after a Denny's employee accepted the
C-note with Farrell's beaming mug prited on both sides. The next
night, the band was held in police cutody at the ampitheater for
several hours ahile the Treasury agents counted and confiscated
the bad cash. According to the band's manager, Ted Gardner, "perry
is crushed. He had his own secret supply of Porno money and was
hopiing to dine out at Denny's for the next ten years on it." For
the rest of the tour, Farrell resorted to divvying out hundereds
of real American dollar bills each night.
You should go there :)"

I'm glad that Denny's freaks worldwide now have a place to meet
and trade stories about the greatest franchised restaurant chain
in the world! My friends and I go to school at RPI, and
consequently we frequent the four Denny's in the greater Albany
area. We go there so much that a few seconds after being seated,
and without asking, the waiter already knows exactly what we want
(The Club, with seasoned fries, and a Pepsi) We must take umbrage,
however, with the viewer review that was given on your page. We
believe that the Central Ave. Denny's is superior, for no other
reason than that one of the waitresses always hits on my friend,
Anthony. Anyway, good hunting. And thanks for a great site."

- "I, and a small cult of my followers worship
you as the god of coolness that you are. I was wondering if you
could help me prove/disprove a theory of mine. After much
experimentation in a couple different Denny's, I have determined
that if a group of many near broke friends get together and forget
to ask for seperate checks, the group will end up exactly two
dollars and thirty one cents short. Everyone will swear that they
have paid their part, plus tip, but the cash total after everyone
has thrown in their contribution will testify otherwise. What do
you think could be the source of this? A time vortex resulting
from the aura of the grand slam breakfasts? A maelstrom in the
cash flow continuim that springs a leak inside all Dennys from
which cash starts leaking out? I remembered this theory of mine
when I was on your page, and decided that you would be the
ultimate source of knowledge on this."

- "In my opinion... Denny's sucks big time. The
management doesn't care if the stores are filthy and that the food
is old and rancid. The cooks can't cook worth a darn. The servers
are stupid and the restaurants should be shut down. Thank God I
don't have to eat there!!!! There are plenty other restaurants to
choose from. I certainly won't eat at any of the other places
owned by the idiots who own Denny's. All of the Long John Silver's
restaurants aren't worth the money it costs to drive to, and every
Grandy's needs to be closed for good because they feed their
customers rancid chicken! Shame on you for promoting these
restaurants...you need to find something better to do with your
time. This is all my opinion which I am entitled to express. You
may trust Denny's, but just wait until you get as sick as I did
from eating their nasty food, and see how quickly you change your
opinion!"

"Socyology of Women". When to my delight I found out that one of
my text books is about Denny's Waitresses. The book is titled,
"Dishing It Out: Power and Resistance among Waitressesin a New
Jersey Resaurant". The teacher said in the first class that no one
knew what resaurant/diner it was. But I noticed that in the intro.
the Author (Greta Foff Paules) said that it used to be a doughnut
shop in the 50's. And as we all know Denny's started out being
Danny's Doughnut Hut. The book also give an accurate account of
the late night crowd at Denny's, explaining the hell that
waitresses have to deal with. I just thought you's like to know
that I have finally acoplished a dream which was to study Denny's
in college. Woo Hoo, yay me."

thirty bucks! i've work for them a year and three months and all i
received was a net loss of 10 dollars a week! ( they lowered their
insurance suppliment to my health plan by seven dollars and the
insurance went up three dollars this year. ) raises are given to
managers every march now. (another cost savings for them..had to
pay off that 45 million last year to the "plaintiffs") i got
screwed on my raise because it was based on my length of service
at the time of the review .( only there 1/3 of a year so i got 1/3
of my raise= 347 $ out of 1040 $ my review said i "rated" at. oh
well...boo-hoo. i worked for them 6 years in the 80's. .funny
thing is it is the only restaurant i ever ENJOYED working at! they
are in financial dissaray at the current time. maybe if they
started SPENDING some money they would make some instead of making
their employees wonder why in the hell they work there!! you are
correct when you find denny's enjoyable. it really is. i just wish
they would invest some $$ in our unit so we can better serve our
guests the way we are capable of . OUR ( mine and staff) biggest
wish is replacement wall paper for the missing pieces and a new
shake machine so we can make more than one shake at a time!!!!!!!
( a full management staff would be nice too!!!!) but we at denny's
in PEORIA will still do the best with the tools they allow us to
have!! FOR SOME INSIDE TRADING INFO.... buy denny's stock now!!

didn't particularly want the hamdinger or the Bases Loaded Slam.
Couldn't they get the card with the Super Bird? That was a rough

people have written about dennys. now i am sure that every
restraunt chain has its popular areas as well as its unpopular
dennys has made the eastern end of pennsylvania one of its
unpopular areas.i worked at dennys for about 6 years in the early
90s and what was a great place to work in 1990 made its employees
stressed out by the beginning of 1996,they did a poor job of
getting rid of people who would loiter and fistfight and sell
drugs in thier parking lots and this drove away their good
customers(and good tipping ones) another problem was it seemed the
"higher up" personell came down hard on the store managers when
something went wrong then the store managers came down on the
employees because of this now what you have is stressed out
servers serving you and what they feel in their hearts is they
hope they can find new jobs soon .when dennys addresses these
problems rather then finding out who to blame then they will
become a great restraunt again like they had been back in the
