Laura McQuarrie — January 31, 2015 — Lifestyle
If you prefer your pancakes to be served with champagne, it might come as a surprise that this Denny's restaurant doubling as an upscale craft cocktail bar is a great place to get your fill of both. This swanky establishment in Manhattan does away with branding that has to do with a bright and friendly family-style diner, putting more of a focus on creating a sophisticated adult atmosphere. This is especially evident in the hours of the establishment, since this Denny's is only open from 11 am on weekdays and stays open until midnight. In terms of style, the restaurant is dark and luxurious, with leather booths and a copper ceiling, appealing to stylish New Yorkers and tourists.
Items on the menu include Denny's classics like Grand Slam breakfasts, Moon-Over-my-Hammys, in addition to much more opulent brunch options—for $300, you'll get two Grand Slams, a bottle of Dom Pérignon, and a high five from the bartender.
