Order a gluten-free bun on Bourbon with bacon burger it was good but not too sure if it was the bun or the meat had a bit of freezer-burn taste as I got closer to the one side end of my burger. Flavors were there and had a lot of bacon.👌🏼Shredded Hash Browns I thought were cube hash browns. It was shredded hash browns could have been a bit more shredded potatoes and with some onions added to it as flavors they came plain with nothing. My friend ordered an omelet with Hash Browns and he enjoyed his order. Both meals were a good deal price.

I visited Denny’s for my free birthday Grand Slam, but unfortunately, the experience was frustrating. Instead of applying the discount to my meal, they mistakenly gave it to my son. I had to check and ask multiple times to get the correct pricing, which took away from the experience. While I appreciate the birthday offer, better attention to detail and customer service would go a long way in making sure guests actually get what they’re there for.

I came in again this morning (Monday) for my scrambled eggs and English muffin and Sonja was in an exponentially better mood or having a better morning today and spoke to me with respect and kindness. And I am grateful to her for that. And have updated my review to reflect the experience.

(Sunday) I ordered two scrambled eggs and an English muffin from Denny’s on Skip this morning—same as yesterday. I’ve done this across Canada and the U.S. for over two years.

After ordering, I went into Flying J for coffee and the restroom, then decided to wait inside Denny’s rather than walk through the frigid parking lot twice.

After Sonja seated a family, I let her know, "I'm here for my Skip order, but I don't think it’s ready yet."

Her immediate response, with a slightly ignorant tone: "The order just came in, and we have 24 minutes to prepare it." (Despite it being placed and confirmed 10 minutes prior.)

I said, "That's fine, I just figured I’d let you know I was here in case it was ready." Because… two eggs and an English muffin?

She walked away, then immediately came back: "Actually, I'll just get you to sign for your order now then."

I hesitated for a second—signing for eggs? Weird. But I got up and walked over, saying, "This is new; I've never had to do this before."

Her tone escalated: "Actually, THIS IS OUR POLICY." Imagine a teenager correcting you on something insignificant.

I responded, now matching a small version of her tone but playfully, even making a silly face: "Well, I didn’t have to yesterday, so it must be new."

She scolded me: "You're supposed to be signing for it. That’s policy." But much more aggressively this time.

I told her, "You're being quite aggressive in your delivery, and it’s unnecessary."

She snapped back, "I’m just telling you what the policy is."

"Yes, but you're doing it with a rude attitude, and I don’t understand why. The aggression is super unnecessary."

I never refused to sign. I wasn’t rude. I even tried to lighten the mood. When I called out her attitude, I was direct but polite.

Three minutes later—not 24—she dropped my food on the counter without a word and walked away.

I made sure to thank her before leaving.

I get it—food service is hard. But I wasn’t a nightmare customer. Sometimes, when people say, "I’ve never had to do this before," they’re just making an observation.

And when they say, "I'm here for my Skip order," they aren’t demanding you rush. They’re just… there.

Food decent, hours of operation are a bit of a joke.
I'd be mindful of ordering the skillet. it seems they've been cut in half.

Good service, for take out. Food had good flavor, but the quantity was very unsatisfying. Ordered a large Fry and gravy.

Pretty classic place to get your breakfast fix after a night out or on a lazy morning. It’s got the perfect diner charm and feels very cozy. It can get pretty busy on the weekend mornings! The bacon is crunchy and the gluten-free english muffin is very buttery and delicious.

Three of us went for brunch and was served by Lesya S. She was absolutely the best server we have ever had. Her personality is beyond exceptional. She was always smiling and conversing with us. It really made our day. Thank you so much Lesya, we will see you again. ❤️
