Almost went to the Wendy's next door, saw the awful reviews there and came here instead, had the time of our lives! Travis was an incredible waiter. He knew every single option for all the sides and drinks and ways the food could be prepared and everything! I really appreciated him. He took time from the busyness to chat some with us too, which was very kind of him. And the food was awesome! Best pancakes I've had from a restaurant in a long time, perfectly mixed milkshakes. Thanks for an awesome end to our day at Holiday World, Denny's! read more

Worst service I have ever had, me and my friend ordered two breakfast meals with mostly egg as the ingredient and didn't receive food for over 30 minutes. We almost walked out before. When she brought out the food the order was incomplete forgetting sides and parts of the meal we ordered. When mentioned my has browns were missing I received attitude. The omelet I received was not edible and I gave my food back. Don't go here, the staff is on drugs most likely. read more

genuinely everything could improve. waited at the door and nobody came to seat us. then nobody came to take our order. this food can be perfect and I still know I'd give it one star. I'm currently still waiting for them to take our order. In the kitchen they're cooking something but heaven knows what, because I don't SEE any food. on anyone's table. beyond frustrated, worst experience. read more

It was terrible they didn't get my order right and when I got my food it was cold and under cooked. The people keep messing up the order which made that place look bad because the people couldn't do there job right. read more

Denny's - My order they got wrong I asked for extra wings and I only got 3 wings. They have some of the worst waiters that don't listen. - Diners Near Me - Dale, Indiana

Horrible service stood in the lobby for 20 minutes as multiple different workers walked by and didn't say a word. Not to mention as we walked in several people in front of us left due to the same issue. read more

Went in Saturday at 11:15 am. Waited only 5 minutes due to others ahead of me. I sat at the counter. 30 seconds later, my server Debby, took my drink order. I knew what I wanted so she took my food order then as well. 1 minute later, if that, I had my coffee ! Maybe 25 minutes later I had my food in front of me ! Let me just tell you - Debby was -ON IT ! ! I can't remember the last time I had amazing service like I did today. Debby is definitely a great asset to the restaurant. Not saying anything about the other servers, but if they are as good then the manager must be very happy with the staff. The kitchen was cranking out orders like their life depended on it ! So nice to leave a restaurant feeling good about the food and service ! read more

So many good things! Food was great. The small pitcher of coffee love, love it The service was excellent!. Food hot, clean restrooms. What else do you want.... read more

Came here this morning with my husband and we had the best server ever - she was 100% amazing , wish I had gotten her name but she did have purple highlights in her hair I believe - she was the best ! Restaurant was clean and she even wiped down our table before seating us even though it was quite tidy - she took attention to detail ! She also checked on us several times which to me is important. Our meals were super delicious- and our meals were reasonable - I highly recommend this amazing restaurant! read more

It is hard to describe the comedy of errors we found at this Denny's. The wait for a waiter to even notice we had been seated took about ten minutes. Then, the waiter came over and I noticed an open wound on his hand that was suspiciously ringed in red. No band-aid or anything. It took four tries and two waiters to get the right kind of creamer, and spoons for our coffee. And it's not like they were busy or understaffed. There were only eight or ten tables, and I counted five or so waiters. The coffee was cold, and the mug didn't seem clean. Brunch took forever to get made. We did come in at an odd time, but, again, they weren't busy. We got toast whether we wanted it or not. My omelette was weirdly watery and flavorless. I heard someone complain that their nachos were cold. The hash browns were fairly burnt. Something had a weird sour taste to it that I couldn't place. No one ever asked us how the food was, not while we were eating or while we were checking out. By the point we were paying, I just wanted to get out of there, so I didn't complain. Not a great place. Can't recommend. And it's not that I'm against diners, I eat at places like this all the time. read more

We came in after a day spent at holiday world. It seemed they had a little rush, but they handled everything amazingly! The food was ABSOLUTELY delicious, it's not every day you can get salmon and steak dinners with 2 sides each for $30! Everyone was so friendly and the food tasted great. I 100% recommend! read more

Everyone was very polite! Service was prompt. We got a seat and drinks quickly. Food came out shortly and was hot. Food was absolutely delicious. I came with a friend. I got the All American Slam. Friend got the Big Dipper Melt. Everything was very good. The waiter checked on us very frequently and was nice. All around it was a great time. God bless. read more

We had a group of 24 kids and adults after a long day at Holiday World. We arrived and could tell they had been busy and when we were asked how many was in our group, Tommyel didn't hesitate to say that she would wait on all of us, while you could tell others didn't want to wait on us particularly. We were seated at several tables close together. She didn't mind that we had other parties in the group to be on the same ticket. She was patient making sure the correct parties had their group on one ticket. She was friendly and never made us feel bad about all coming in. We had two kids spill their drinks and she didn't mind. Quickly got us napkins and refills. The food wait was only about 30-45 mins for everyone to get their food. She provided amazing service with a smile and the food came out hot and fresh. Such a pleasant experience after a long day. Several people tipped her $20 each and she deserved every bit of that and more. read more

Fairly fast service, low on waitstaff, but not a long wait, food was good and seems to be a new Denny's. Restaurants are far and few between, would hope truckers use these instead of fast food at truck stops nowadays! Get a real meal instead of a paper bag read more

I'm a truck driver. I stopped here for food. They were a little backlogged due to the number of customers present but Megan (or Magen, unsure of spelling) stepped in, took charge of the situation and got everyone caught up. Great service. read more

pulled in after long day at holiday world. immediately saw all the handprints on windows. thought oh no. went in a few customers. no waitress we stood awhile then went o sit down. lot of tables with food and plates still on them. No AC had fans running. we ran out as fast as we could read more

Very disappointing. It was crowded when we arrived so we expected to have to wait, but an hour and a half after ordering we still had no food. Eventually everything (including appetizers) arrived and we started eating - and half the food was cold, while some was burned. They were clearly understaffed and our server was very sweet and trying her best but the kitchen was another story. read more

We stopped by for breakfast, the food was hot and delicious and the service was great!

DENNYS MANAGER my server at Denny's, Travis, was one of the best servers I've ever had! Plus the food was AMAZING!! Your guy Travis needs a raise for his hard work tbh read more

Came Here after having a day at holiday world. Let me tell you I didn't expect much knowing Denny's but this was a pleasant surprise. little to no wait good food and it looked pretty nice on the inside. Bathrooms were clean and were pretty nice much better than a gas station. Food was good and the server was nice. Good job Denny's! read more

Our family of 4 stopped in around 7pm after a full day at Holiday World. We knew there was a chance it would get busy, so we left the park early so we could eat here. What a welcoming oasis! We were greeted quickly by Travis, who seated us in a spacious booth. He was also our server. Travis is a friendly soul and makes you feel like family. He seemed to have a camaraderie with everyone there. He is very knowledgeable about the menu options and add-ons. I loved the Classic Bennys and my husband's spicy sizzler something or other was delicious. The kids also enjoyed their meals. This location comes alive at night! read more

TERRIBLE FOOD AND SERVICE!! Do not waste your time going here! I ordered an all American grand slam on the Fourth of July and come home to find my bacon and sausage were both burnt. The meal comes with eggs and there were no eggs! They don't give you a decent portion of each food. They're pretty stingy with their food especially the hash browns. I also waited at the counter for 10 mins to get my pick up order. The lady at the counter asked rudely, "can I help you??" I said I'm here for a pick up order. She looked at me like she had no idea what I was talking about. She says, "okay..." after a short pause and walks away talking to her friends. A couple minutes later a very sweet lady came by and asked if I've been helped. She finally gave me my food as soon as I told her I was there for a pick up order. This used to be THE PLACE to be. Now you're lucky if you don't get burnt food or bad service. They're a dumpster fire and I wouldn't be surprised if they go out of business soon. read more

The first night I had the fish and chips and it was really good. We liked Denny's so much we decided to try it again. After we left Holiday World we were all starved and couldn't wait to get to Denny's. This was on a Tuesday night at 7:30. When we got there there was a line of people waiting to be seated. There were a lot of booths and tables opened so we thought that was a little strange. It took them a 1/2 hour to seat us. Then it took another 45 minutes to get our food. That was uncalled for. But when I got my food and tasted it I forgot all about the horrendous wait. I ordered the pot roast and it was so good. It had carrots, mushrooms and way too many mashed potatoes. I don't know if it was just a fluke that the pot roast was so good or not but I will certainly try it at another Denny's if given the chance. We don't have a Denny's where I am from. The wait was due to being short staffed and a rush of people coming from Holiday World. read more

Nice staff at this location and they know most of us are coming fro the Holiday World theme park.

The waiter was fine, especially since he looked 15, but the A/C was so cold people were having to go to their cars for sweaters and coats-in a June heat wave where outside temps were in the 90's. Frankly, after seeing two local hotels and the one gas station, best to SKIP THIS EXIT altogether! Oh and forgot the smell of the whole town...I've lived on a farm but this smelled liked most of cow crap. read more

We stopped here for breakfast on the way home from Holiday World. We had an amazing time there and we are ready to get home to our puppies. The food here was amazingly good. I had the All American Slam and it was a slam. read more

First time I've ate at a Denny's food was good hot here n fast service I would eat At this chain again waitresses friendly

This place is usually the bomb but not today. No croutons in our salad, 1/2 full dressing cups. Other food is ok. We asked for crackers and while trying to specify the waitress ran off and brought us saltines instead of the club cracker we were wanting and they were stale. We tip According to service. It's not looking good for her. read more

As me and my family were on the road we turned off and ate at Denny's the food was good but the environment was horrible. Smells like something was dead inside, also the bathrooms was not clean. The place stunk! Like horribly, there was rotten fruit that was served. The only reason there is one star is the staff and the main corse meals. read more

Ordered a veggie burger and some pancake balls to go after the horrific experience at the Wendy's next door. Service left a lot to be desired - our waitress flat-out ignored us after our order was up (but before we received it) to hit on the dude sitting at the counter for what seemed like almost ten minutes, then scoffed at us when we asked if our order was at the window (it was). The pancake balls were incredible, however, and my fiancee enjoyed her veggie burger. Better than Wendy's, but don't expect great service. read more

Who ever made the decision to have 2 TVs tuned to the same political station made a bad choice. I asked for TV to be turned off or to another non political station and was denied. No thanks keep your political values to yourself if you own a business. read more

The food is okay the service is the worst thing I've ever seen don't come here if you don't have patience?

I worked at this Denny's and the manager Kendall does not know how to take a joke and if you ruffle her feathers she has you fired even if you're a good server and Megan the general manager will sit there and back the manager not get the full story and mark you as a no rehire this Denny's treats their employees like garbage instead of coming to me and saying that was an inappropriate comment they fired me oh and the other day I went to go take a tray of food out and they gave me a moldy English muffin the other night when I was cleaning I found fuzzy mold under the tea containers do not go to the Dennys They do not know how to give proper service half of the servers have attitudes there are some good ones there but they won't be there long because this Denny's is like a succubus It's bad all the way around. This Denny's does not care about nobody but money and that's all they care about they do not care about customer satisfaction they do not care about food presentation they care about money that's all they want from you is your money do not go to this Denny's read more

Horrible service. The restaurant can be empty and it takes them forever just to seat you. Same trying to pay and get out of there.

Business is literally gone. Just a vacant lot. I think it was the only place to eat around here. Staying at one of hotels that's next to the large Denny's sign, was hoping to get a bite to eat before checking in. Nothing but hay field around the area now. read more

Stopped by here while traveling across the country. The food was okay, as in it's pretty standard fare for Denny's. Our server was nice, but she wasn't very efficient. She offered to refill my coffee once, and it was 3/4 full. Then I finished it toward the end of my meal, after she dropped the check, and she didn't come back. She didn't take any of our completed dishes off the table, even though she came to the table behind us a few times. The bathrooms were clean and in good working order. read more

Horrible experience. You would expect they could handle large crowds in July being a few short miles from Holiday World. There were probably 20 people waiting to get in we were told a 20 minute wait. After 1 hour and 35 minutes we finally received the food we ordered as soon as we sit down. We took menus to look over so we could order as soon as we sit down. Do yourself a favor and stop somewhere else for breakfast if you are stopping during Holiday World season or probably anytime from this experience. read more

We were here a couple of days in a row. First for a late dinner and second for brunch. Fast, friendly, and affordable. Family friendly. Recommend this place over any other in town considering the small population. read more
