Best breakfast food I've had in a long time!! We travel from Mississippi to Nash weekly and will definitely keep this spot in mind. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the food was great! read more

My mom & I stopped for breakfast on our way to Memphis. The restaurant looks nice & clean...until you head to the restroom. Mom said it doesn't look like it had been cleaned in a while. The dining area didn't look super busy or short staffed but a couple people had left because their server didn't take a drink order or even bring menus. It took forever for our food to arrive & when it did arrive, it was cold. Was not really impressed with this Denny's. read more

Kristen was our server and she was phenomenal. The food was standard Denny's, neither bad nor great, but sufficient. Orange juice was good, better than most. read more

I was a little concerned when we pulled up that it was a Denny's connected to a gas station but it was fantastic. The restaurant is full size and the servers are some of the friendliest and hardest working servers that I've ever seen!!! Food came fast and was hot and tasted excellent!!! It's well worth the visit!! read more

Walked in and gave us a 20 min wait and thats fine, we walked in 20 mins later and proceeded to tell us to wait an hour.

When Matt L. reviewed Denny's, I knew I had to go there. The Better Half of the Yelp couple is a huge fan of Denny's. I grew up in Michigan, and we had plenty of them as well, but you never notice it until its gone. On our visit though, the place was hoppin' When we go there, a line had already formed to get a table. Our wait was fortunately brief, but waitress experiences seemed to mirror that of Matt L. Mary seemed somewhat disgruntled at our very existence. It was as though she struggled to fight through a reserve of hatred bared inside her each time she stopped by our table. In the end, if you've been to Denny's and hold a fondness for it, you'll want to come back. If you've never been to one, it might be a bit harder of a sell. None of its offerings are all that different from what you might get somewhere else. I don't think its worth driving an hour just to order a "Moons Over My Hammy" and despite my repeated mistake about it, the "Rooty Tooty Fresh N' Frooty" is at IHOP. At the time of my visit, the location was incorrect in Yelp so I was unable to "Check-In". Its located just off the exit of I-40 at the Flying J Truck Stop. Not in downtown Fairview as the Map Marker suggests. read more

Denny's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fairview, Tennessee

See all

Food is delicious. However on my second visit, my coffee and our food was brought out without silverware. Our waitress Edna was no where to be found nor any other wait staff. After waiting 10 minutes for service, I had to walk over and grab silverware off another table. Edna then came over and said she seen I had an attitude about the silverware. Really? Bad service on Edna's part. I will eat there again but will never be served by Edna. She is very rude and talks to herself very aggressively. read more

Seven tables, three waitresses, where's the service. Noticing our waitress focused a table full of young guys across the restaurant when she wasn't in the back the whole time. Noticed other tables were ignored thoroughly as well. A man waited at the front to be seated for well over 10 minutes. Look the food came out fine, it tasted fine, but at least two servers had their heads in the clouds. One table had to raise his hand after at least 7 minutes to get a menu. They don't deserve one star because food was the saving grace. Thanks cook. You did the real good. read more

Service was a little bit slow. Restaurant was clean for the most part. I ordered the Turkey dinner this time. A change from my usual nachos... it was a good Choice. read more

A real dump. Needs renovations to modernize. Short on staff means poor service. Manager walking around, but not helping. Cold food. Sloooow service. read more

Denny's... or as I like to think of it, somewhere in between Waffle House and IHOP. Wife and I stopped by this little number today while heading back home from Arkansas. This one is joined at the hip with a Flying J truck stop, so the whole time we were eating we were serenaded by the sounds of "Customer 67, shower 1 is now ready." Apparently some poor sweaty trucker with ADD wandered off and never heard the countless pages beckoning him to his shower. Service-wise, we had no complaints here. Everyone was friendly and attentive. As for the food, well... it was pretty much what I expected. It was later on in the day and I wasn't in the mood for breakfast, so I decided to go with something that should be in their wheel house - country fried steak. I ordered it with mashed potatoes and broccoli. It came with garlic bread as well. In some weird twist of fate, the broccoli and bread were pretty good, but the steak was just strange. Potatoes - meh. Instant potatoes. They even gave off the instant potato smell, yeah, you know what I'm talking about. About this steak, though... Do you remember those soy hamburgers you used to endure in high school? Recall that weird sensation when you bit into them. They smoosh down until you finally cut through with your teeth and the pieces literally spring back like you bit into a sponge. That is how this country fried steak was. It tasted like one should taste (lots of breading and gravy), but it had an odd shape like it came off of a chicken nugget production line and that abomination of a texture. In my mind I have this image of Denny's growing steaks in a lab on the backs of rats. read more

I was psyched when I found a Denny's had opened in Fairview. Previously, the closest locations were in Southern Kentucky, and way out in Jackson, Tennessee. I have a lech for cheap and tasty breakfast food, and Denny's fills the urge. It's a shame that I had been about five times in the last ten years. The food is just as you'd expect: fluffy pancakes with butter and syrup, eggs, bacon, and sausage: oh so good. I got the make your own Slam for $5.99, and it was a good deal. The service, meh. The waitress I had was full of herself, slow when there were seven total diners in the place, and more interested in the other staff than she was in my needs. Another stupidity was that there was never anyone at the greeter's desk. I could have dashed right out the door, and they wouldn't have even known for five minutes. Finally, my waitress cashed me out, and her self-esteem was still through the roof. I'm sure I'll be back: don't know when. Fairview is a long way from Hermitage. Just don't expect first class service: it ain't there. read more

Our 6 year old asked for Denny's. We haven't been to one since we moved to Nashville (Bellevue) from Chicagoland. This location is the closest to us, so we decided to surprise him today. The drive down 40W was easy. Jessica was our server and she was wonderful. She was kind and helpful. My only suggestion is that the restaurant check their tables after they wipe them down (ours was a little sticky, but I carry Clorox wipes :) ). The Super Slam breakfast was a great value. And it's nice that they gave an AARP discount (15 percent)to my parents. We will be back again. read more

First and foremost it is a Denny's in a truck stop. The menu is fairly consistent across the US. So for this review its mainly about service and cleanliness. We stopped for breakfast and had no issues with either. In fact we drive to Nashville several times a year and we have decided this is our breakfast stop on the way home. If you are looking for a quick lunch, breakfast or dinner as you travel on the 40. There is nothing wrong with stopping at Denny's read more

Denny's has GREAT food... IF you can manage to come when competent staff is working. Unfortunately, three out of four times that we've eaten here, we've had -what appeared to be- drugged-up/brain-dead servers/staff waiting on us. Like, I'm not even going to go into all the stories we have about this place- you'd just think I'm making it up! read more

Friendly people..great food...and amazingly delicious desserts..you wont regret it....im very thankful there is a dennys so close by read more

Denny's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fairview, Tennessee

We saw the Denny's sign on the road to Memphis. Since we hadn't eaten at a Denny's since leaving California, we stopped in for breakfast. But since we hadn't eaten at a Denny's since leaving California, we had forgotten how bad the service can be there. The service was incredibly slow. It took them practically forever to take our drink order and then another forever to actually get our coffee. The Bacon avocado omelets were good, but the hash browns were were cold and undercooked. The waitresses were all very friendly, thus bumping this review from a one star up to a two star. read more

Im giving 4 stars for being good at what it is, a restaurant at a truck stop. Had a bad experience a year or so back but was out this way and hungry. Coincidentally, just this week they did a total makeover with a new counter and TVs everywhere. Impeccably clean. Service was excellent. Usual Denny's menu which worked for me. Seems they have righted the ship and off to a good start. Food was delicious. No complaints. Ill add as a stopover. When traveling, Nice to take a break from Cracker Barrel for variety sake. read more

Not much to say except that it is a Denny's and it is what it is. Consistent quality across the nation and in this one as well. Courteous and friendly service. Wide variety of choices. Good portion sizes. Bottomless cup of coffee. I love getting breakfast anytime - day or night. I'll be back (on the road or close to home at Denny's.) read more

The service and the quality of the food was higher than expected it was a very delightful place and would definitely come back here again the server Pam was excellent read more

Terrible service. My server's shift was apparently over before she was able to take my order. So she just walked out and never told any one else to take my order. Sat there for about 20 minutes and nobody came. There were slow as well. Walked out and just paid for the coffee :( read more

I ate here late one night coming home from the gym. I know that's ironic but I needed the calories after intensive weight training. And that's one thing that you will definitely get at a Denny's. A LOT of calories. The waitress was an absolute darlin, and the food was good and fresh. We were the only ones in there that night as it was late on a weekday, and you could definitely tell that the cook actually had some time to prepare our food and take his time with it. I have a sweet spot in my stomach for Denny's, as it used to be a hot item for me back in the day when I lived near one. This was the first time I had been to this particular location, but I will most definitely be making a stop there again soon. read more

The poor hostess here has been yelled at by every waitress. All the waitresses are yelling and fighting with each other. The noise from the kitchen is quite comical. There's a LOT of drama going on with the employees here. Been waiting for my food for 45 minutes. Whomever is in charge needs to calm everyone down. I've actually lost my appetite at this point. read more

We take our daughter Saturday's 1 1/2 she loves the staff, especially Bobbie. They always have her things quick and she loves interacting with them! read more

Waited at table for 15 minutes after being seated and no service. Not even that busy. I thought I was invisible. Finally just left.

Its a problem when you go into a restaurant wait to be SEATED and are told they wont sit you cus the waiter/waitress has a lot of people but tables are open HOW RUDE!!!! Its called customer service read more

The service here is slow, food was cold and disgusting. There was an incident with a homeless couple in the restaurant, being asked to leave due to them hiding a cat. As the couple walked away, the woman in tears, (they had money to pay for it) the manager in training was smiling and laughing. They may have a policy for pets and i respect that, but to laugh at the situation is imature and coming from a manager in training?! read more

This Denny's is really hit and miss. Sometimes it is good and sometimes it isn't. We were just there for breakfast this past Sunday and the food was fine except it was just barely warm which is irritating. Aerobics is usually great though I will give them that. read more

Well as my first review on this site its not going too well now is it. You might be thinking to yourself what happened to this person and her dining experience to make it a one star well i will tell you with one sentence. Pubes on my chicken tenders.Gross! read more

How hard is it to mess up a pancake? Apparently easy at this Denny's location. I was excited when they first came to Fairview. I was very disappointed in the food quality and service when we went there. Then my husband reminded me it was a Denny's at a truck stop what did I expect? read more

I love the pancakes here. The pecan is the best. If I could eat pancakes here all day I would

Well, your typical Denny's, but located in a truck stop. The food was good and Pam, our waitress, was great with being very attentive with our refills, check, etc. We were stopping through on our way to MS and would stop back in if return trip was taking us by here. read more

I go here several times a month and its ok for a Denny's. I will say the pancakes are freaking great. Don't change those at all. The only complaint is some days we go here to eat and get the best of service and food while other times not so much. I do find that we get the best food and service late at night. read more

You have to try the Philly steak and cheese sandwich!!!! It's great!!! I like Denny's a lot. So much better than the other place that was here. They just need to work on getting more professional servers. Maybe pay more. read more

This Denny's is usually a great place to grab a quick lunch or dinner, but we were very disappointed in the service last night. Our waitress seemed to not know much about the menu. I don't know if she was new or what. She got our drinks and disappeared for almost 10 minutes before taking our orders. It was not very busy. When we got our food, she forgot my husband's side item. Instead of going to the kitchen to get it, she went up to the cash register and proceeded to check people out. Finally, my husband flagged down another waitress and she told ours. She went and got the item and said "sorry about that" and went back to the cash register. I had planned on ordering dessert and wanted more iced tea. She never came back to our table and never brought us our ticket. We walked up to the cash register and she went and got our ticket without a word. read more

These guys where rockstars! Jennifer Treated us like family with our group of 20. I can tell you well worth the drive from Franklin!

This is the worst Denny's meal I've ever had. Greasy under grilled Super Bird Sandwich. Greasy limp under cooked hash browns. Nice waitress but the cook doesn't care. read more

Best breakfast around. I like that Denny's offers lighter fare options and senior discounts. Go Denny's!
