I go to Denny's often (at least 12-15 times a month)
Yesterday Is the last time I go to Denny's.
My son and I came for what we thought was a quick breakfast, we got our food within 10 minutes, ate our food and was ready to leave at 5:48, waiter said you can't check out until 6:00. I went to get up and waiter said you have to wait here until 6! Computer is updating.
I was held at your Denny's for 12 minutes doing nothing but wasting my time. Waiter could of asked my to pay before the update instead of making me waiting at the table with dirty plates and two empty cups.
I have never been treated like this before.
Waiter tried to justify it by saying gas stations do this.
This may happen at other places but they tell you and you have a choice to stay or leave. Not held against your will. Had the waiter asked me to pay before he updated the register I would of been happy to pay rather then stay 12 minutes doing nothing.
