Sunday Family Brunch at Denny’s Estancia Mall (2024)

After attending Sunday mass, our family always looks forward to a hearty meal in a comfortable setting. One particular weekend, we decided to try Denny’s at Estancia Mall, a choice that perfectly fit our needs for good food and a cozy atmosphere.

A Brief History of Denny’s

Denny’s, originally opened as Danny’s Donuts in Lakewood, California, has grown from a small coffee shop into a global diner chain known for its 24/7 service. Founded in 1953 by Harold Butler and Richard Jezak, the restaurant was built on a promise to serve the best coffee, donuts, and service around the clock. Over time, Danny’s Donuts evolved into Denny’s, with over 1,700 locations worldwide. The brand’s reputation for always being open and ready to serve meals at any time of day has made it a go-to spot for diners across the globe.

In the Philippines, Denny’s has expanded its presence under The Bistro Group, a company known for bringing popular international casual dining brands to the country. With its consistent quality, Denny’s has become a favorite for those seeking a taste of American diner classics.

Convenient Location and Welcoming Ambiance

Denny’s Estancia Mall branch is conveniently located on the ground floor of the mall’s East Wing, making it an easy stop for families, especially on Sundays. The location is particularly appealing to the post-church crowd, who often look for a place to gather for lunch or brunch after mass.

The restaurant’s interiors reflect the classic Denny’s vibe, blending a retro diner feel with modern elements. Spacious booths, comfortable chairs, and well-spaced tables provide a relaxed environment for diners. Large windows allow natural light to flood the space, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere during the day. The warm color palette, combined with modern artwork, adds to the overall 1950s diner ambiance, making it an inviting place to enjoy a leisurely meal.

A Family Feast at Denny’s

Our Sunday brunch at Denny’s Estancia Mall did not disappoint. With a menu that caters to all ages, each member of the family found something to enjoy.

First off, we got started on the complementary appetizers that consisted of crackers served with a tangy dip while we waited for our orders.

My son opted for Mom’s Spaghetti (Php295), a saucy pasta dish made with sweet and meaty spaghetti sauce, served with a side of garlic toast. The generous portion and rich flavors made it an instant hit.

To complement his meal, he ordered a Chocolate Milkshake (Php260). Made with premium chocolate ice cream and topped with whipped cream, the milkshake was creamy, indulgent, and everything a chocolate lover could hope for.

My daughter chose the Banana Hazelnut Waffle (Php275), a delightful combination of a classic waffle topped with banana slices, chocolate hazelnut spread, and zesty cream. The waffle was light and crisp, and the toppings added just the right amount of sweetness, making it a perfect choice for her.

My husband, a fan of hearty breakfasts, went for the All-American Slam (Php525). This dish included scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese, bacon strips, sausage, toast, hash browns, and seasonal fruits. The variety on his plate ensured that he had a bit of everything, from savory to sweet.

As for me, I decided on Grammy’s Kitchen Tenders (Php375). The buttermilk chicken tenders were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, served with a side of honey mustard dressing, microgreens, and French fries. The dish was satisfying and flavorful, offering a nice balance of textures and tastes.

What Makes Denny’s Stand Out

Denny’s is more than just a place to grab a meal; it’s a diner that prides itself on consistency and comfort. What sets Denny’s apart is its ability to cater to a wide range of diners, from those looking for a quick bite to families wanting to enjoy a relaxed, unhurried meal together. The 24/7 service offered at some locations is a testament to the brand’s commitment to being there for its customers whenever hunger strikes.

At the Estancia Mall branch, the family-friendly environment, combined with a diverse menu that has something for everyone, makes it an excellent choice for weekend brunches. The quality of food, the comfortable setting, and the welcoming service all contribute to a dining experience that feels both familiar and special.
