Denny's Restaurant

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 and share our commitment to healthy and properly cared for livestock. We are working on phasing out the use of gestation crates for pregnant sows in the U.S.

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 received recognition from leading animal welfare organizations for our commitment.
