Tyler diners get a new breakfast option on Monday, November 9, when Denny’s opens at 1226 South Beckham Avenue. The restaurant is a makeover of a former Grandy’s building, and crews are still finishing construction and staff training this week. Videos shared online show a clean, updated interior ready for the first wave of customers.
The opening comes with a change for regulars: according to employee training at the new site, the existing Denny’s on West Gentry Parkway will close once the South Beckham location opens. If West Gentry has been your usual stop, it’s worth planning a new route before your next early-morning run.
There’s a perk too. Denny’s Rewards members can claim a free cheesecake or a free simple breakfast plate for their birthday through an online account, so signing up before your big day pays off. Between the new jobs and the new dining room, it’s a notable week for Tyler’s restaurant scene. Are you planning to check out the South Beckham location on opening day, or will you miss the West Gentry spot?
