Denny's The Clock’s Off Menu is the brand's answer to consumer demand for dining experiences that match cravings and preferences rather than requiring diners to conform according to the time of day.
The menu takes a simple yet striking approach to dining by allowing customers to order breakfast, lunch and dinner classics anytime of day to encourage craving-based experiences. The all-day menu will thus feature classics including the Country-Fried Steak & Eggs and Moons Over My Hammy, but also include new items like the Strawberry Cheesecake Scoop Slam, BBQ Cookout Classic Burger, Slamburger and more.
Denny's The Clock’s Off Menu is also doubling down on its seasonal updates with its Slammin’ Meal Deals Under $10 selection that will offer sub-$10 meal options for road trip travelers on a pitstop.
