GF items are noted on menu. Servers are somewhat knowledgeable. Emphasize that you are GF.

It's Denny's, so... but, in a pinch it's a safe place to have GF options.

Ate here one day with no problem. The next day they delivered an ordinary English muffin instead of a gluten free one. They ran out! Luckily I noticed and scraped the hash browns off which is where the muffin was. Did not get sick luckily. Spoke to the cashier about it. not sure she understood or did anything about it.

Had a good breakfast with no ill effects! Waitress was careful to relay my instructions and opted not the have the GF muffin toasted, as there is no dedicated toaster.

Are here for breakfast and did fine. They don't have a gluten free menu but there are several choices that you can do. I had the build your own grand slam with eggs, bacon, and hash browns.

Do not visit this Dennys location with Celiac under any circumstance!! They have gluten free English muffins, but it doesn’t seem like the cooks understand what the difference is between a gluten and gluten free muffin. They gave me a gluten muffin on my takeaway order and I didn’t find out until I got home. The grill and fryer are also not dedicated gluten-free despite the fries being labeled as gluten-free.

Once I arrived I asked if they have a Gluten Free menu like I was told, they said they didn’t. They managed to compromise with a burger with no bun. Wouldn’t recommend for a meal

Denny’s has gluten free options, but the servers do not seem to understand anything about out how stuff is prepped at this one, but the server brought the chef out to talk to me about how things are prepared. He sad each thing like eggs, bacon and sausage, and hash browns all have their own station. The gluten free English muffins are done in the same toaster though and he offered to clean it out but I told him not to worry about it.

He cleaned all the surfaces just in case something happened and he was happy to do it. Even came out to check on me and see how things were and make sure I knew he cleaned everything before even though those surfaces shouldn’t have had anything with gluten made on them.

I waited for 18 hours before doing this review to make sure I didn’t get sick and I have not. I usually get very sick very fast even from cross contamination.

Food was delicious. I got 2 linked sausages, 2 eggs over easy and hash browns

Let’s face it. We don’t go to Denny’s for the cuisine. Yet they are always my travel back up plan. I’ve never ever gotten sick from their naturally GF eggs, breakfast meat, hash browns or fruit. Always tell my server my allergy and apologize about needing extra care taken that my food is on a freshly cleaned section of the grill. Reliable food when on a road trip.

If you’re gluten free keep driving.

The GF english muffin that I’ve had at other Dennys and is advertised all over the menu isn’t carried here. There are still other basic options but a lot involve substituting a GF english muffin.

The place feels dirty as well
