Denny’s Now Closing Over 150 Stores By 2025’s End: Here’s The Locations We Know Are Closing – Blavity
Denny’s, which closed 88 locations in 2024, is now closing over 150 stores across the U.S. by the end of 2025. We reported earlier this year that they were closing 90 stories, so this number has now increased.
The closures come after Denny’s agreed to sell the business for $620 million in November. The buyers include TGI Fridays owner TriArtisan Capital Advisors and investment firm Treville Capital Group, as well as Yadav Enterprises, which operates 550 restaurants in the country, according to Newsweek.

The Denny’s closures include a store in a Bay Area mall. The Santa Rosa restaurant announced its closure in a window memo, directing customers to another nearby Denny’s, SFGate reported.
“Denny’s currently has more than 1,300 restaurants nationwide and continues to open new locations in new markets,” a Denny’s spokesperson told SFGATE. “We’d like to thank our team members and local community for their love of the Denny’s brand.”

According to Newsweek, CEO Kelli Valade said Denny’s has been closing stores since 2023 to return to positive growth by 2026.
In recent meetings, Newsweek reported that Denny’s executives also discussed the need to close “lower-volume restaurants.” The executives said they have been able to “improve the overall health of the brand” by closing low-performing locations.
“The surgical and methodical approach, which began in 2023 and will be completed by the end of this year, was specifically designed to optimize and enhance the overall health of the franchise system with the goal of returning to net flat to positive growth by 2026,” Valade said in an earnings call, according to Newsweek. “Rationalizing the portfolio was the right thing to do, and we’re seeing the results that we wanted and expected from this process.”
