Nearly every sizable town in the U.S. has at least one Denny’s, so it came as no surprise when a Go Dairy Free viewer emailed with excitement about the allergen menu at Denny’s. Michelle said:
Went to Denny’s last night, and supposedly their apple pie is dairy free! They have a food allergy menu. So am enjoying my deep dish apple pie with turtle trails [dairy free]ice cream!
And yes, according to their allergen menu (at our last check), the apple pie, among other menu items, appears to be dairy-free by ingredients. You can view the full allergen menu on the Denny’s website (head to the “food” section and click on a menu item to find the allergen menu download). See the Denny’s website (below) for a store locator.

This allergy menu apears to have been taken down?
I still found it Cheryl! Last updated June 2015 when I looked. Click on any menu item in their food section. On the right side, there is an arrow to download the allergen menu.
I went to Denny’s this evening. I am impressed since other breakfast restaurants don’t have allergen menus. I did eat the apple pie. It didn’t wipe me out. (My reaction doesn’t take long.) I think that it is dairy free if you have it without the caramel sauce, which I was sure to do.
Ate at Denny’s tonight, and the server checked for me. The apple pie is definitely NOT dairy free. Sorry to report the sadness.
Thanks for updating Stacie! As of the most recent allergen menu they’ve posted online (dated March 2012) it still shows the apple pie as dairy-free. It does contain egg though – perhaps they were confusing egg for milk/dairy? Here is a link to the allergen chart – http://www.dennys.com/files/allergen_sulfites_2012.pdf
Yes ,there ice cream isn’t either so be careful! I’m still nervous with dennys because they use real butter on there grill…
