Denny’s

I went to have some dinner with my family, first impression, only one person, hostess and waitress, floor was dirty, when we were going to order drinks she looked like she was in a hurry to take our order, i was last to enter the restaurant and she did not wait for me to take my order, she bring the other drinks but never asked me what I wanted to drink, coffee was cold and never came back to take our order we told her about the coffee but never bring another one or to take our order and she only had 3 more tables, very disappointed because only 2 persons to run the restaurant?
Never comming back to the restaurant with the grumpy lady

I do not understand the negative reviews because my experience eating here was a good one. I was exhausted and stopped here at one in the morning and had the chicken fried steak dinner. It is Denny’s and so I was not expecting a gourmet dining experience. The food was hot and tasty and the waitress was very nice. The place was clean and quiet and had an interesting ambience with many small groups of college students having coffee or pancakes. There was just one waitress working to serve about seven tables and running the cash register, too, but she did a good job. I went in starving and in need of some relaxation and I had no complaints about my meal or the service. So I would definitely stop in again if I were up that way. Again, it’s not the greatest food on earth but it is just fine if you are hungry late at night!

This is my first time in Colorado! And every time I go away I come to a Denny’s and this was the worst I’ve been too. First off the table only had 1 kit of utensils and it was 3 of us being seated. We told our waiter to come back we didn’t know what to order but my cousin asked for a chocolate milk. He came back 10 minutes later NO MILK asking what we wanted, we ordered. Another 10 minutes later the milk came and he asked my boyfriend I’m sorry what did you want to drink? We got our food in almost 30 minutes, My food was wrong, my boyfriends food was cold, and my cousins steak was medium rare instead of medium well like he asked. We didn’t get straws, and now we’ve been waiting for our check for about 20 minutes more. The wifi is also very slow for such a small restaurant, Kind of crazy right? I wouldn’t recommend this place at all.

If I could give this no stars I would, it’s a nice Denny’s not the food. The sirloin steak I ordered wasn’t cooked to my request and it was cold we seen the waiter 3 times for an hour and a half stay, we had to call the waiter from across the room, if I’m ever back in colorado I’ll be sure not to come here

You’ll be lucky to get a refill on your coffee, service is slow (the server has to bus the tables as well as everything else), and if you’re the kind to order the same menu item every time, you’ll find it isn’t always consistent. Sometimes you’ll get butter, sometimes you won’t, sometimes your order will have everything you expect, sometimes not. You may have to ask for what you need more than once (usually twice, sometimes three). I’ve always frequented this place for breakfast or brunch, I’m always nice, but they’re not very good, even for a Denny’s. I don’t know why I stop here, probably because it is a Denny’s at all, and sometimes I just don’t care and am willing to put up with it, I guess. Apathy in dining is necessary to eat here. Love you guys, but let’s be honest, you know you could do better, right?

Everything about this Denny’s has gotten worse over the 5 that I’ve lived in Boulder. I go for my monthly fix of diner food during the 3am time frame while studying for finals. At first there were two or three servers during the late night early morning shift, but now there is just one waitress. She is usually so attentive and quick, but with so many customers she is always frazzled and pulled in too many directions. She has too many tasks on her hands. She keeps people waiting for a seat and last night we waited exactly 7 minutes. There are homeless people sleeping in the front area and almost always in the seats to the right. It ruins the atmosphere when theyre snoring and the smell is rancid (being honest)
When my food came out I noticed. I was missing sausages in the Slam. I didnt even bother to ask because the server hadnt been by in ten minutes. Wait time was terrible. Management is really taking this place to the dumps. No servers, one absent minded cook, plus huge groups of hungry people? Why dont you hire even ONE MORE server so they can work the cash register as well as serve food before it gets cold? She kept mixing up my drink order and delivered a wrong order to someone who ate half of it until the server realized it was a mistake. A couple groups just left after being in the line to BE SEATED.
The cook and server also got into a little bit of a fight. Pretty loud, and not good for a business when everyone stops eating to listen to them. The tables are wiped down with a dirty rag and it leaves a sticky smelly residue on the table. Had to wipe my seat down with a napkin because of the crumbs and bits left on it. I ordered scrambled eggs and it smelled terrible, like raw chicken on the verge of going bad. A dank, dark smell. I noticed halfway through unfortunately. If i hadnt been waiting so long and so hungry, i probably would’ve found the smell sooner. For those of you who like your eggs undercooked, sunny side up, over easy, etc, i dont recommend you ordering that at this Denny’s. In all seriousness, For fear of bacteria.

we went there, the glass was broken in the front door and had a sign but nothing holding it from falling. the soda machine was broken, and the kids cups were out of stock. our waiter was forceful and annoying. we walked out without eating or drinking anything. wont be back.

Denny’s gives a 15% discount to AARP members. Whereas Boulder is a town primarily dominated by college-​age people, there are a few of us oldsters… and this discount is appreciated. Most of the waitpeople are wonderful, and the food is not bad for a ²⁴⁄₇ chain. And so it goes…

Terrible.
This place is incredibly understaffed and their waitstaff is rude. The latter is most likely because of the former, but multiple trips there have confirmed it — this place is awful. Can usually get seated right away, but the staff usually have to wipe off a table for you beforehand. After that, it’s a toss up as to if you’ll have your order taken in closer to ten minutes or twenty.
The biggest problem for me — they ignore the huge lines they get there. Yeah, I realize you’re busy, but take a second to say «be right with you!» — don’t just avoid eye contact and walk right past us. I waited so long there the last time I went that I 1) contemplated ditching my bill and 2) almost just tossed some cash (with 0 tip) on the counter and left. Luckily my waitress’s tip was salvaged because someone stepped in right in time.
That’s another thing: making your customers walk up to the register to pay your ticket is a bitchy thing to do. I should be able to write down my tip (usually a generous 20−25%) in confidence and privacy, not have it hounded from me. Bastards.
Don’t come here to eat.

Typical Denny’s expectations. Got an order to go and they took really good care of me when it came to silverware, condiments, etc. I got the American Slam and it was delicious.

Look… it’s a Denny’s and they cook the food right. These 4 stars are on the Denny’s scale — it’s not that I’d go there for a filet and caviar. It’s comfort food with friendly staff.

So, here’s the thing, it’s a Denny’s, but it’s a nice (ish) Denny’s. As a starving student, I love rolling in here every once in awhile and grabbing some cheap eggs and coffee. I tip pretty decent and I never have to wait long for my food or get a botched order. I also don’t roll in during the wee-​hours trying to sponge up booze, so maybe I’m seeing the decent waitstaff.
My favorite experience here so far was rolling in at four-​something a.m. in order to meet my carpool for some conference in CO Springs and seeing an entire family eating before sunrise during Ramadan. Still a Denny’s, but I like the place.

It serves it’s purpose: get some cheap IHOP like food. Definitely nothing impressive about it.

Asked for water without ice. Waiter says, «water without ice, got it». Brings water with ice.
Waiter asks what kinda bread do you want with your food, gives me 4 choices, brings the entrée without any bread. After I almost finished with the food, I remember the bread, I ask for it and she goes in, and gets some bread.
Broccoli cheddar soup was so thin and obviously it was microwaved. Got cold with like a minute or so. Every other food was microwaved too, as it went cold pretty quickly.
If I was there at some wee hours, say 2:00 am and they microwave it, I understand that. But I was there at 7:30 pm. Looks like no body gives a damn about anything anymore in that place. But its dennys. dont think I should expect anything more from it.

This is a Denny’s how good can it get? Well if you are coming in from a night of drinking and McDonalds across the street isn’t good enough, Denny’s is a good choice. I’ve only been late at night, but the waitstaff has the typical Denny’s/truckstop charm. The food is just ok, but I don’t expect the best food, it was a bit greasy and kinda cold, but not bad in taste.

I haven’t lost tons of weight from eating in expensive restaurants, but I found myself in a quandary when, starving, the 24-​Hr (as proclaimed on the web) 29^th St Starbucks was closed before sunrise and Boulder being a town that sleeps, there was no other choice but to eat my Colorado Rockies hat (I considered that a possible Cub fan redemption move).
So Denny’s got me, instead (my Rockies hat was too sweat stained from hiking).
TIP: you don’t need a fake ID if you are under 55 to order off the Senior’s 55+ menu:
Senior Fare Omelette: egg white, spinach, mushrooms, cooked in olive oil (supposedly), a fresh fruit cup that actually contained fresh fruit, and a gigantic bowl of oatmeal:
$ 6.59.
Really. And it was really perfect fuel for my sunrise hike …
Sated (almost) «Senior»

A bit greasy, but inexpensive & open 24 hours. Is anything else 24 hours in Boulder anymore. It’s exactly what you remember Denny’s to be.

Nothing great about this Denny’s that you haven’t seen at any other Denny’s.
Good place for:
— studying during finals
— grabbing a quick latenight snack after the bars
