Does Dennys Take Apple Pay?
Denny's accepts Apple Pay for payment at restaurants. They have contactless payment terminals right on the tables where you can use Apple Pay, as well as other methods such as:
- Google Pay
- Samsung Pay
However, it's important to note that Apple Pay is not accepted on Denny's website or their mobile app, so you won't be able to use it to pay for takeaway orders or orders through the app
Does Dennys Serve Alcohol?
Denny's restaurants generally do not offer alcoholic beverages. Most of their establishments, especially those owned by a corporation, do not have a liquor license and are family-friendly, focusing on non-alcoholic beverages and a diverse menu suitable for all ages.
However, some Denny's franchise locations may obtain a license on their own and offer alcoholic beverages.
This is not common practice, and obtaining a liquor license can be a complicated process, so most Denny's locations you visit will likely not serve alcohol.
When do Kids Eat Free at Dennys?
Kids eat free at Denny's restaurants on Tuesday evenings, from 4:00 pm to 10:00 pm. During this period, you can get a free kids menu with the purchase of an adult meal valued at $6 or more.
Keep in mind, however, that the availability of this promotion may vary by location, so it is recommended to check with your local Denny's restaurant for details.
Does Dennys Take EBT?
Denny's restaurants accept EBT payments at some of their establishments, but not all. Acceptance of EBT varies by restaurant location and state law.

- the elderly
