Denny’s Corporation today announced the opening of its first Denny’s Café location, marking the first
fast-casual restaurant for the company. Denny’s Café offers a smaller version of the traditional Denny’s experience that caters to guests with a more streamlined menu, counter service ordering and a smaller real estate footprint that allows for easier entrance into urban, more densely populated markets.
The opening of the first Denny’s Café location will take place on November 12, 2010, in Orange, California. Denny’s Café leverages the traditional Denny’s brand image to offer diners the same family restaurant experience in a setting that provides a faster service model, where guests will be able to order from menu boards at the counter, select their table and have the food delivered directly to them. Denny’s Café features a more abbreviated menu, offering most of the traditional favorites found at Denny’s, including the ‘$2 $4 $6 $8’ value menu.
