I went here for my birthday breakfast and got a free grand slam. My goodness - I couldn't believe the size of the portion - it was huge - you need a take home box. The quality of the food was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and was hot. Our server was IRINE and she was extraordinary. She was friendly and very timely in serving us. I highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

Sophie our server was a delight! Food was great, all around great experience! My partner got the Slam, I got the Santa Fe Sizzler, it was so good! Thanks Sophie! read more

Looking for a grand slam experience? Try coming to Denny's on your birthday where you will be treated to a free grand slam breakfast. I got the original grand slam breakfast which comes with 2 eggs any style, 2 strips of bacon, 2 sausages and 2 buttermilk pancakes. The regular price is $12 but you get it for free on your birthday. Just need to show a piece of identification to show it's your birthday. My wife ordered the prime rib eggs benny and wow that was delicious as well. $15 full order gives you two english muffins with poached egg your style (soft, medium, hard) covered with beautfiul Hollandaise sauce. The prime rib was tender and juicy and cooked with some grilled onions and bell peppers. The total bill came up $25 tax in. The coffees were bottomless and were pricey at $3.49 each. They also have a robot that comes to your table to sing happy birthday. This will be popular for kids birthdays. I loved it as well. Overall great experience and will come back soon. read more

Great service, bacon was crispy, pancakes were fluffy. Over easy eggs hit the spot. Coffee cup was never empty. Would defiantly come back again. read more

We stopped at this location for breakfast. The service was ok,however we did not get our coffee refilled. Food was also tasting ok but the problem started 20 min after we left the restaurant which I felt sharp pain in my abdomen and could hardly get to the closest on route . I almost lost my balance and fainted and I believe it was due to food poisoning . It could end up scary but luckily it did not. I ordered poached egg and French toast and fussing it could be the eggs. read more

Great location in Whitby and the food is actually quite good especially the red potatoes and a good size portion even for a 55+ menu. They were transitioning to a paperless system and were shortstaffed, but I must say there is a lady named Irene, who was working so hard to make sure everybody got their orders and the coffees were refilled with a smile on her face. There was a party of six people, and she treated us all with respect and was extremely professional. I would easily go back here again read more

Literally has to be the worst Denny's location EVER. Even their take out is terrible. Take a look at the photo I posted. Their Moon over my hammy had one single piece of ham. I've had it before at other location and it never looked this sad. It was basically just an egg sandwich. The hash-browns were okay nothing special. The fries were better than last time. The cheesecake was okay but came covered in old strawberries and a bad syrup. They have really gone down hill in the last years. read more

Was very disappointed in the hostess's. I came I around 12:45 a little bit of a wait which I didn't mind. But once every group got seated I was still waiting to be called. Next thing I noticed people coming in after me were being seated. I asked and they didn't give me an answer and the hostess was kinda rude about it. I waiting another 5 mins to still be ignored. Very rude when all I did was wait to be called. read more

It's a Denny's, so set you expectation! Service today was very good and I hate to say it..the food was really good. Our kids ordered chocolate chip pancakes and our one girl order birthday cake pancakes that had this vanilla topping that looked way too sweet but she loved it. I had the chicken fried steak with broccoli and corn because the calorie count scared me from getting the fries. The chicken fried steak was very good and not too salty. Wife had whole wheat multigrain pancake and really enjoyed it. For sides they have really thin bacon but we're surprised that the fruit that was including was not full of melons. All in all- food was very good and service was excellent...and not expensive at all! read more

Congrats Durham to all late eaters, you have a rarity place that is OPEN later than 2am. This place is now 24hours of service. Pro: This place has a lot of options from breakfast, sandwiches, burgers, steaks etc., My wife got the build your own slam I believe which allow you to pick 4 options of sausage, bacon or both, french toast, pancakes, 2x eggs and other options I believe for $13.50 or so... Originally for some reason when our server brought over the meal, it was less than lukewarm, so the server was saying he can take it off the bill but we just wanted a fresh batch made without the fuss. Second time around it was more noticeable that its cooked and heated right as you can see some hot air come off the food. I got their burnt end brisket with hashbrown, peppers, jalepeno on a hot skillet for $18+. This dish on the description sounds good but failed to deliver the brisket tenderness and taste. The hashbrown was thin like and I can say I didn't feel full after eating this meal alone... Also shared their zesty nacho mix with chilli and sour cream on the side. There is a half portion for $11.99 and full portion for $15.99. I think this one was likely the best choice out of all of the ones we ordered here. I think staff shortage here makes the experience feel like a big place like this when slammed will be in a lot of trouble as I'm guessing its hard to fill people to work the night owl shift too. Our server was friendly and looking to make our experience better there, but the food is okay to be honest. Luckily they have lots of options to try here if hungry late at night! read more

I called to ask if there was any birthday specials that were available and I was met with someone on the other line HANGING UP THE PHONE! I tried calling back multiple times and they picked up the phone and hung up without saying anything. Did this twice and was met with the same rude response. DO NOT EAT HERE. Pure BS! read more

I have come here many times and never have a bad experience. I have dairy and gluten allergies and they have plenty of options for me. The service is always very attentive and helpful and go the extra mile to ensure that my allergies are catered too. I love the hash browns, and the gluten free English muffins make me feel like I'm eating a real breakfast and not just a collection of allergy free foods. read more

Denny's - Two eggs, hash-browns, bacon, and gluten free English muffin - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Whitby, Ontario

This is one of my favorite places to chill and get a big breakfast! I ordered the hammy and cheese omelet, with a side of hash browns and toast. The breakfast was huge, and very filling. Along with a very filling breakfast, you'll never be disappointed with the proportions, as they don't skimp on anything. The servers are welcoming and friendly, though we did have one waitress who would kind of just stand by the tables and space out. Thought not too much of it, as it only has happened once out of the 25+ times we've come here. I don't recommend going on a holiday, as it can get very busy, with a at least 10 minute wait for a table. But any other time, it's not too busy, the noise level is normal, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The menu has a wide variety of pancakes, waffles, crepes, omelets, anything a little more healthy like oatmeal or fruit bowls. Along with gluten-free options and vegetarian/vegan options. Recommend this diner/restaurant for anyone wanting a big breakfast and nice atmosphere to spend it in! read more

Since they have reopened after the shut down for covid their quality has gone down. I have gotten pancakes for takeout twice. The first time they were a little sour too much buttermilk I'd assume. The most recent time they were absolutely terrible. So sour that I had to spit it out at first bite. I really hope they FIx their pancake issue. read more

Honestly feels like the quality was low this time. The servers were friendly and the milkshakes were good but the meal and the hash brown was kind of bad. read more

Slow service, partly cold food, but what do you expect from a place in Whitby. Would go back to try breakfast but don't expect fine dining.

We had a great time with our family. Great service. Great food. That my friends is a real grand slam.

The Philly Cheesesteak Omelette was delicious and filling! A generous serving of tender grilled prime rib in these omelettes. Grilled prime rib, fire-roasted bell peppers and onions, sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Served with hash brows and choice of bread read more

I went on my birthday and got the FREE birthday meal wih a drink purchase (although nowhere in the menu or website did it say that a drink purchase is a must). The food was okay, I mean nothing extraordinary. The prices are fair. I will probably be back if I don't feel like making eggs at home...probably next year, on the day of my birthday again. read more

Denny's - Our waitress insisted that we had to buy a drink to avail the free birthday meal. $2.99 coffee (cheapest). - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Whitby, Ontario

Denny's has really upped their brunch game in recent years! Ended up here on Sunday because Cora's was packed, and we were pleasantly surprised. I built my own breakfast and got buttermilk pancakes (highly recommend), 2 sausage links, hash browns, and scrambled egg whites (also highly recommend). Despite it being a busy Sunday morning we were seated within 5 minutes and service was standard. I took away 2 stars because their coffee mugs look like they hadn't been washed in years! There were coffee drip stains all over it. We ended up getting our coffee in to-go cups and the rest of the dishes looked clean. Just something to look out for if you ever go. read more

Dude, Denny's is SO good. I'm so basic for discovering it now but if you ever ask me if I'm down for denny's, the answer will be a hard yes. This location always seems to have people but not enough staff, which is the only negative I have to say. Once we came in and nobody was at the front for 5+ min and I guess because they were changing shifts, mans were running across where we were stripping their uniforms meanwhile trying to avoid eye contact. Ok.. it also takes awhile to get service, water and our food. Honestly I don't really mind but I wouldn't come here if I was in a rush to do something. I like Denny's because it accommodates anyone's eating plan, you can eat here with anyone and it will still work because you can customize pretty much everything. I tried the pot roast sandwich, which was absolutely heavenly. I ordered it to share half with my bf and then didn't want to share after eating the first bite. It's melty, cheesy and thiccc. It comes with whatever side you pick; I chose fruit and it was a mix of apples, grapes and melon. Small portion but whatevs. I also tried eggs benny for the first time, guys!!! I once ordered the steak eggs bennie, which came with potatoes (wish I could change this.. didn't touch them at all) - the eggs benny was ON. POINT. The hollandaise running over a huge poached egg along with chunks of steak, with green peppers and onion...this combo is MONEYYYY. I don't even like onions but with this mix and the perfectly poached eggs on top of an english muffin that did not get soggy.. this was perfection. Everything on the menu looks so so sooo good. I love buttermilk pancakes so when I'm on my next cheat meal, I will definitely order that. We had some once and they were so fluffy *__* I love how it's 24/7, and how they serve absolutely everything. read more

My last Denny's review was for a different location although this is the location we frequent the most. For a hassle free birthday brunch with a baby, we chose to dine at Denny's. As always, the bustling dining room was filled with activity as busy servers deftly took orders, fill them and refill countless cups of coffee for patrons. Denny's is a kind of place where you know exactly what you're going to get. This consistency is what I love about Denny's. Everything from food to service, I have not been disappointed at Denny's. Sure, it's no quaint downtown brunch spots but good luck trying to wait in line for 45 min and try to squeeze in a stroller in what's usually way too small a dining room anyways. So, here we are. Hassle-free and an excellent example of quality control. Denny's. We each ordered OJ and coffee to start. Neither the OJ or the coffee are excellent but they will do. I ordered a prime rib skillet and the hubby ordered country fried steak skillet. Both were very hefty brunch items indeed. Both skillets came sizzling with potatoes, veggies and meat nicely charring away....all topped with mounds of cheese. Gosh....you've got to love it here. Oh yeah, and there is also a side of toast that comes with each entrees. Our little girl even partook in some buttered toast. :) I don't think I need to go into detailed description of the merits of the skillet since this is not that kind of review. Sure, my prime rib skillet was brimming with huge chunks of extra tender beef. How can you possibly go wrong when you throw together skillet potatoes, sizzling veggies, juicy beef pieces and cheese? You can't. Believe me. All in all, this was another satisfying Denny's experience for me and my little girl's very first visit to Denny's. I have a feeling we'll be coming back here for years to come for many more pre and post movie meals or just for a good old family style breakfast. Oh yeah, there is also a promo where you can get a free Denny's grand slam breakfast on your birthday. Maybe one day. :) read more

I've always been a fan of Denny's. I grew up at the time when Denny's was only in the US and we would visit them during our hockey road trips. Of course now Denny's are everywhere. I haven't been to Denny's for a while and decided to go the other day. There's something about the Denny's atmosphere that's very comfortable. For me, as soon as I walk in it's like I just stepped into the US. Somehow they manage to retain the American feel, right down to the friendly managers and servers. I always get the Lumberjack Slam and all the coffee I can handle! I will say that other local breakfast places offer more food for the money compared to Denny's these days, but none have that great atmosphere that only Denny's can provide. read more

Usual tasty Denny's food. Decent location and great for anyone hankering for some breakfast food at random times. My only gripe with this location is the service is so slow. Not sure if they are understaffed but no matter how busy it takes forever to get seated, get your order and get your food. Overall I've never had an issue with the food here. It's usually up to standard of Denny's fare. They do undercook the hashbrowns a bit so I stared asking it to be a little more well done. I don't like soggy hashbrowns. I'll continue to go here unless the service gets even worse. Right now it's bearable but when you're hungry it's awful. read more

I came here specifically for the country fried steak and eggs today. I haven't been this way for a while. It appears there have been some staffing changes but the service is still excellent. The place was packed this beautiful Sunday morning. Unsure if this is the norm as this is the first morning trip I've made here. Overall, country fried steak and eggs came within 10 minutes and was excellent :) read more

Place has been a good go to spot for a while! Service was good but my only complaint is that they have a slim night menu, I didn't know that they took a lot of things of the menu after 9 PM. Our server did do us a favour and let us order our usuals even after 9 PM! Food quality is great! Will be back! read more

Everyone knows Brooklin/Whitby is poor man's Richmond Hill. The Centrum is a large, open space "plaza" with a variety of services that cater to teens/young adults and families (ex. restaurants, mini golf, movie theaters). A Denny's at this location fits into the poor man's Richmond Hill complex perfectly. I can't stand their food, but I do appreciate their eggs done at a good price. And the waiters here were so friendly. read more

My family and I went there on August 4. The food was OK, but the kitchen screwed up my wife's order, putting cheddar cheese on her burger when she'd ordered Swiss. It was the waitress who ruined the meal. The woman didn't smile once. She had zero personality. And, while we were trying to figure out what we wanted for dessert, she dropped our bill in front of my wife. I guess she decided we'd had enough. And then we looked at the bill, noticed that cheese wasn't mentioned on my wife's order at all, and realized the problem with the order was probably her fault, too. Maybe it was near the end of her shift and she'd stopped caring? Because both my wife and I have worked (and she still works) in the service industry, on our $72 bill we would have normally rounded up to an even $100. We tip very, very well; usually 30% or more if the food/service is decent. Last night, we rounded up to $80 and went somewhere else for dessert and coffee. Will we go back? Probably. But not anytime soon. And if we get that same waitress, we'll ask to sit somewhere else or just leave. read more

I ordered the fried steak with 2 sides. The fried steak was the worse thing I've eaten in my 21 years of life. The price appeared to be low at first but after eating it, i feel that i paid way too much. They should be paying me to eat it. Service was non-existent and it wasn't even busy. They also took a while to bring the food. read more

Have always had a pleasant experience when I've come to Denny's! The menu is amazing! The service is always excellent. I've come here in the morning and even late at night and no matter the time the food is always great, as well as the service. I highly recommend coming here. read more

What do you do when you're in Whitby at 3am and your friend's new bachelor pad has no food? You apparently go to Denny's. I was starving and sleepy so my tolerance was really low. We just wanted to get some food and get out but the host was in a talkative, joking mood. Unfortunately his jokes were not funny. He gave us the late night menu, which only had one omelette option on there. I asked him if I could get it without meat. He sighed and said that I might as well just get the veggie omelette. I told him I would IF it had been listed on the menu he gave me. He said, "I'm only joking". I asked for no hash browns and some sausage. We received our orders and headed back to my friend's house. First thing we noticed was that we BOTH had hash browns. My omelette was okay but I wouldn't order it again. The only thing I loved were the sausages but good breakfast sausage can be devoured at other restaurants that would serve good breakfast as well. Next time I'll know that when I'm up at 3am in Whitby, I need to drink some water and either go to bed or go back home to Toronto. read more

Denny's to me is a really good if your looking for a filling meal. I went there the other day with my mom and it filled me up for the whole day. The food is a good four stars. Their pancakes are so fluffy and nice, the texture is to die for absolutely mouth watering. What I usually get the build your own Omelette. It includes 4 toppings of your choice and served with hash browns and a choice of bread. Pretty filling if you ask me. read more

This Denny's is located in the Empire Theatres Plaza in Whitby. We came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning and it was rather busy but they were able to seat us right away. I've only ever been to Denny's once and it was in the states so when my boyfriend suggested we go, I was open to see what it was like. Although it was busy, we were seated right away and our waitress was over quickly to take our drink order. My only issue here was that when I got my tea, pouring water from the mini t The menu here is pretty expansive, lots of choices, lots of options for healthier choices too. I ended up going with the Grand Slam which was three eggs with cheese, two links of bacon, two pieces of bacon and hashbrowns and toast. Our food arrived quickly, faster than I expected actually. Everything was good, fluffy eggs, tasty sausages, crispy bacon and these neat hashbrowns... love the hashbrowns. Overall, for the price we paid and the amount of food we got, I'd come back here for sure and try something else off the menu. It's not terribly original or anything but it ticked all the boxes for breakfast! read more

Food is ok but it is WAY overpriced. $10 for an omlette, plus $2 extra for coffee makes for an expensive breakfast. I imagine it's because it's a franchise And the fact that the AMC plaza has crazy expensive rents. Better breakfast option just down the street. read more
