The neat thing about Denny’s is it’s super-reliable. You can walk in to any location anywhere at any time and order any manner of pancake, burger, Grand Slam, or what have you. You could go weeks or months without visiting, but it’ll always ready to give exactly what you need. Denny’s is basically your favorite grandparent. In case you do ever feel like changing it up, though (like you decide to grab Denny’s for lunch instead of the typical 2 a.m. munch session), you’ll be pleased to know Ol’ Reliable is still down to learn a couple new tricks.

By “tricks” we mean Denny’s “Monthly Features,” or the closest thing Denny’s may get to a seasonally-driven menu. We stopped by our local location in Santa Ana, Calif. to try out the latest spring-inspired April menu, which includes such nifty offerings as Sticky Bun French Toasts, Avocado BLTs, and Peanut Butter Cup Pancakes
