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.

Denny's supports the humane treatment of broilers in the supply chain and is continually working with 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 works with suppliers that meet or exceed industry animal care standards. We are working on phasing out the use of gestation crates for housing pregnant sows in the U.S.

Denny’s guests have varied dietary preferences; 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 received recognition from leading animal welfare organizations for our commitment.

Denny's is proud to partner with suppliers who share our values of ensuring livestock are healthy and properly cared for and meet or exceed industry animal care standards.

Our vendor recruitment program is rigorous, requiring vendors to meet or exceed all food safety standards.
