Denny's

Ensuring the humane treatment of cattle remains a priority for Denny’s. We continue to emphasize our purchase preference with suppliers who use polled breeding stock versus the practice of dehorning cattle.

Denny's understands the issues surrounding the welfare of broilers in the supply chain and supports the humane treatment of these animals. We are continually working with our suppliers to establish higher welfare outcomes for chicken.

In 2016, Denny’s pledged to source and serve 100% cage-free eggs in all U.S. restaurants by 2026. With the increasing availability of a cage-free egg supply, we are on target to hit our goal of 100% by 2026.

Denny's is proud to work with suppliers that meet or exceed industry animal care standards. We have established a goal to source all or substantially all pork by the end of 2030 from suppliers who use group housing and do not house pregnant sows in gestation stalls.

Denny’s guests have varied dietary preferences, and for decades, we’ve offered several plant-based items to meet our guests’ specific needs. In 2023, Denny's partnered with Dr Preager's to extend these offerings with a high-quality, meatless protein. We are exploring additional plant-based protein items that our guests can enjoy all day.

Since 2011, we have been using suppliers that practice the most humane slaughter method and have proudly received recognition from leading animal welfare organizations for our commitment.
