Denny's is ushering in the summer season with two new tasks on classic diner dishes: the America’s Diner Double Cheeseburger and Beer-Battered Onion Rings. In other words, Denny's is hoping to stoke a little bit of nostalgia for some beloved American dishes.
Perfect for those who enjoy a more traditional burger, the new America’s Diner Double Cheeseburger consists of two hand-pressed beef patties topped with slices of American cheese, caramelized onions, and what Denny's is calling its All-American sauce on a fluffy brioche bun. The diner burger can be paired with the chain's new Beer-Battered Onion Rings, which consist of thinly sliced onions dipped in a rich beer batter and then deep-fried until golden brown. Both are available now at participating Denny's nationwide.
