What? 5 stars for DENNYS!? Yes, my little Yelpings, it is so and there's a 1st for everything. No Dennys I've reviewed has achieved this mighty merit! 1st off, The hours posted here are wrong. They close at 10:00 p.m., not 8:00 p.m. My food was excellent, and we'll get to that in a second, but what put this place over the top and got that fifth star, was my server, Brice (sp)? This kid is a machine! Granted they weren't busy, but he was taking care of all the customers that were here, and very keen to detail. This guy definitely needs a raise or higher position. I walked in 45 minutes until closing. Now at most Denny's wait staff would scoff, sigh, and roll their eyes and reluctantly show you your way to your table. Brice? Took care of a customer that was paying, let me pick where I wanted to sit, cleaned off my table, got my drink and took my order. I'm a pain in the ass sometimes when it comes to ordering, so I ordered a Cobb salad with salmon, that didn't want any carrots or croutons, and wanted both balsamic and blue cheese dressing. He didn't need to write anything down, told me he would get my order just the way I wanted it, and boy did he!! He came back to check on me and refilled my drink. This is one of the best salads I've had at a Denny's, at least aa really long time. Decorum is your typical Denny's, and one of the cleaner restaurants I've been in, I can say. I knew exactly what I wanted for supper when I knew I was getting here from Jersey. And this is one of the rare times that I was excited and anticipating great meal, and actually got it, with a side of excellent service. Thank you Denny's Brookeville, and thank you Brice for being the benchmark and setting the bar for what Denny's nationwide SHOULD be! If I'm ever through here again, I'm definitely stopping back for another great meal! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

My cousin and I stopped in for a late dinner while we were on the road. We were greeted right away by Brandon, our server. I kept it simple and ordered a cheeseburger with extra pickles only and a side of fries. Our food came out not too long after ordering, and everything was fresh and piping hot! The cheeseburger was juicy and not overcooked which I appreciated! My only complaint is that the meat was a bit on the fatty side. The pickles were crunchy & extra sour(just the way I love them). The fries were ok (not amazing, but they did the job). Brandon was very sweet throughout our visit. He even let me take a pic of him. He looks like someone I know. I had to show my friend the pic of his look-a-like. I didn't order dessert since it was already pretty late. The experience overall was pleasant! The inside had a cozy, homey vibe(great for a casual meal)! read more

This dish was very tasty. We also had the zesty nachos that were gone before they hit the table. Yes, they were that good. Our server was awesome as well. She took the dirty dishes away without us asking. Drinks were kept full. The only thing I have neg to say is the place needs more staff as it took 10 minutes to get a seat. The atmosphere was also amazing. read more

Denny's - The oven baked lasagna - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brookville, Pennsylvania

I was traveling on I-80 west and stopped at Denny's for lunch. It was a little after 1:00 pm and wasn't busy. Five tables were occupied. I was seated quickly. I thought I would be able to get back on the road in good time. Boy, was I wrong. My order was taken after a few minutes wait. I ordered two eggs scrambled, bacon, a short stack of pancakes, and iced tea. I sat at the table without my drink. The waitress was nowhere to be found. 15 minutes later my iced tea arrived. The rest of my meal arrived another 15 minutes later. I understand staffing is a problem in restaurant industry but I was only one of a small number of orders. I should have realized there would be a problem when a customer walked out earlier after waiting a long time for his order. The waitress looked in wonderment with plates in her hand and the customer was gone. I've been to other Denny's while traveling. This experience isn't typical. Hopefully Denny's send in a manager who can turn it around. read more

Brookville Dennys blows. We showed up over half an hour before closing and we couldnt get service for dine in. I could see 10-15 minutes before closing but not over half an hour. Lady seemed to disgusted that we wanted to dine in. read more

Best meal and best service! Nashville chicken sandwich was perfectly cooked and crispy on outside! Everything was freshly cooked and served HOT! The strawberry pancake puppies were so delicious! Thanks so much for a delightful experience! Everyone is so nice:) read more

Denny's - Got these two sandwiches!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brookville, Pennsylvania

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Let's start with what's good. The place was clean and people are employed. Worth 1 star I suppose. Cons: The wait here is longer than at the finest steak houses in Manhattan. The wait would be non-existent if staff would buss the tables quicker. If you sit people and at least have their drinks ready, they forget about the 45 min wait to get their food. That's right folks, moon over my hammies will take at least 45 min - 1 hour plus to get to your table. With terrible service in between. Ordered a coffee, no silverware to mix the sugar. Asked once for a spoon, 10 minutes go by, no spoon or waitress in sight. I walk towards the front to try and retrieve silverware myself where the hostess stand is, no silverware. I sit for another 10 minutes as the waitress wants to have an a riveting/ unnecessary long conversation with another table, I ask again for a spoon. It comes 2 minutes later after getting body language that my request for the basic necessities was such a burden. After 22 minutes, I finally get to stir my sugar in my now cold coffee. Do I get offered to warm it up? Of course not because this place offers service that is below a McDonalds drive thru. Across from me was a couple whom I thought were just hanging out, passing time had received their food order. I had to ask how long they waited as they were there before us! They waited an hour plus for food. (They left 0$ tip, I don't blame them) We would have walked out and we were 5mim from doing just so. Food came out, it's was ok. Complaint was the bread in my sandwhich was drenched in butter, it was wet. Small portion of home fries. Was finally able to get a refill of my coffee when the food came, as it sat empty most of my hour and half Denny's of Brookville adventure. When I went to pay, they had the nerve to ask how my experience was. I said terrible and the hostess said "we've been getting that a lot lately". You don't say? The reviews at this establishment have been crappy prior to covid, i should not have left any tip but I did leave 8%. Never left below 15% in my life. Didn't have the heart to leave nothing. Covid will not be tolerated as an excuse for sub service, terrible wait times and crappy food. Much of the issues would be alleviated if the staff was better managed. I understand they are working with less staff but you also have 50% less capacity. Waitresses and waiters who should be checking on customers or clearing tables run off into the abyss in the back, no where to be found. Whoever the manager is, needs his or her ass out there busting tables as well, seating patrons and filling coffee. Lead by example. Oh and the owner, Denny's corporate would end their contract with you ASAP. This place gives them a terrible name, you should probably be more hands on. I would highly recommend not wasting your precious time or dollars at this establishment. read more

Food and service was great. Arrived late night ,ordered on the app while in the parking lot. they got me in and out and the food was delicious. read more

Tried going here three times while I was in town first time they told me it would be a half hour before they can get served food so I said that was unacceptable realizing that Covid is still present in our society and people don't want to work... Thanks for the heads up though ....second time went in talk to a waiter who ran by me and didn't answer my question about sitting at the bar area... At that point I was disgusted and left... The last time I went in sat down ordered my drinks and the fire alarm went off can't win with this place read more

Denny's - a grilled sandwich and french fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brookville, Pennsylvania

If this was the last place on Earth, I still wouldn't eat there. This is a truck stop and they earned one star because the bathrooms are clean; the food is terrible and will result in using those bathrooms. The food wss brought out exceptionally slow because it was burnt. There were 3 other tables and I had to ask another employee for help scraping the burnt off my sandwich. How do you ruin pancakes? Burn those too. If you believe this food is good, you have COVID because you have lost you sense of smell and taste. There is a nice gift shop next door, get a PA tshirt and eat elsewhere. read more

I love the Denny's food chain. But time after time this Denny's quality of food and service have been going down. From the good coming out wrong and overly greasy. There is also the kitchen staff screaming constantly. It's very annoying when they put on music in the kitchen and you can hear them screaming provocative things. I am undeniably disappointed. I do not enjoy my experiences here anymore and I'm getting to the point of not wanting to return. read more

The food was good but the service sucks.. Only a hand full of patrons and waited 5 minutes to be seated and the our waitress had the personality of a rock.. read more

Having been a busser, server, bartender, floor manager, and GM, I've had my share of experiences in the restaurant industry. Coming from this perspective, I felt horrible for the employees at this location. The servers, bless their hearts, were doing the best they could, but the place is ran horribly. Management/owner quality control, if it can be called that, is superbly lacking. I feel for the subordinates - ended up tipping $20 dollars on a $20 bill because I felt for them. This place needs to get its act together. read more

I have to give 2 stars. 1 star for cleanliness and the other star for their food not getting people sick. If you come here I want to warn you that you will either die of old age or starvation by the time you get your food to come to table. Just getting a table here is hard. The servers love to watch people stand for an hour or more in a torturous line before getting seated. Getting something as easy as silverware is a headache by the time it comes to your table you food and hot beverage is ice cold. I asked for silverware and I waited an additional 15 minutes . Overall wait time for this place is and hour and 20 minutes before paying and leaving read more

The worst experience ever literally took Literally Stood in line 15 minutes And still didn't get seated

This is a Denny's at a truck stop. The quality of food is pretty much Denny's quality. The service however is atrocious! You'll waste your time, completely waste your time if you decide to stop here while driving on Interstate 80. Enjoy! read more

My two traveling partners were craving breakfast for dinner, so we stopped at Denny's. To start we shared the new menu item of strawberry pancake puppies, which is like the traditional hush puppies but instead of cornbread batter it's pancake batter that's fried in balls. Our plate of 10 came out with ridiculously sweet cream cheese icing, and then I requested syrup too. Even though I usually don't go for artificial fruit flavors I think that the strawberry ones might be better than the plain ones since the one-dimensional sugary flavor of the plain versions could be overwhelming, not that our appetizer wasn't already extremely sweet. It was also weird to eat a sweet appetizer before a savory entree, so maybe order it as dessert if you're curious. For my entree I got a scramble with egg whites, potatoes, and vegetables that also came with salsa. I suspected that the vegetables were frozen previously, but I was not expecting a classy dinner at Denny's so was perfectly satisfied with my meal for ~$10. I also have to mention that our waitress was so nice! I can see how serving tired and hungry travelers could take a toll, but she seemed really positive and chill and somehow I really enjoyed being served by her. read more

Denny's - Egg white scramble with veggies and potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brookville, Pennsylvania

Food is good. But personal is very not friendly. I have worked in restaurant business so long and i can tell that when personal not very friendly some of them can SPIT on your food and you never will know about it. Valerie Rodriguez who is boss over there is so not friendly. F all racists!!! read more

Everytime I come here I've waited over an hour for my food when the restaurant wasnt even busy by the time of receive my plate it was cold, every time. The food selection isnt the best either. The service was also terrible. read more

Ordered the T-bone steak dinner to go when I opened the container there was a huge fly walking on the steak

Their veggie omelette is simply 5-star! Food is very fresh and the serving sizes are ample. The fruit cup is fantastic. The restaurant is clean and the servers are great. Will come back! read more

Typical Denny's chain. Love there new pancakes! Better than Ihop. This one is in the Flying J truckstop. Was very busy today but service was fairly good considering that there was no tables available and a line waiting to get in. I had the Philly omelet for lunch. Very good. read more

I normally like the food and service at this resturant. Maybe its because it is in a truckstop but the wait was very long and even after specifically asking for no pickles at all on my sandwich or on my plate, my burger arrived with a handful of then on it. The waitress mixed up our orders even though there were only four of us. My burger was in pieces like the cook chopped it on the grill. I would have sent it back but our waitress disappeared. Needless to say this experience has turned me off on this location. Hopefully they get this place straightened out. read more

Great Avocado Chicken Caesar!!! Service from Michael and the Build a Burger was perfect. We will stop here again. Not every Denny's is this worthy of praise. read more

I go to this Denny's occasionally. It is clean. The food is fresh. I like the fit menu. The food is healthy but still tasty which can be hard to pull off. They do a good job. read more

Denny's has good food. I ordered a Bacon Jalapeno Burger first thing it would break apart if you tried to eat it the only good part of the order was the fries and sometimes the waitresses can be rude and forgetful.The second time I went I got the unlimited chicken meal. A large group came in unannouced and we were the only people in that section. Ultimately they forgot i got the unlimited so I give this denny's a 3 star. read more

This is a nice location if you come at the right times. We usually come on Tuesday or Saturday with no problems. Once we came and half the order was messed up- hash browns not cooked at all and sides missing. Don't come when they are busy read more

Excellent overall. Great service, great food, overall just a great place. I go here all the time when my friends are around or I'm meeting with family. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. read more

Had a great breakfast at Dennys. service was great. Food was nice and hot. Will definitely go again..a lot like an eatnpark

Average Dennys. Not my usual location for a Dennys as is in a truck stop. Went for dinner and service was slow even though they weren't busy. read more

Great meal and friendly service! I really enjoyed myself. The hostess was particularly great. It's nice and quiet.

Took 45 minutes to get food and it was not busy at all. When we complained they seemed surprised that we were upset. The manager did discount our bill but the whole experience was a hassle. read more

this place is a joke and should be shut down..... the staff is rude and never come back to check on you or bring you things you asked for. We tried it when first open 2 times then stayed away for over a year and tried again it only got worse. Food wasn't cooked the entire way they forgot my 5 year old nieces meal and just said oh sorry we will get it and 20 minutes later she was crying she was hungry we all had our food and they did nothing but give 10% off we will never go here again and neither will any family members!!! read more
