In 1953, Denny's founders Harold Butler and Richard Jezak opened up a coffee-and-doughnut shop in Lakewood, California, called Danny's - Danny's Donuts, specifically - and worked to open multiple locations over the next several years. The name “Danny,” meanwhile, held no real significance for either Butler or Jezak.

Denny's is known for being a place where you can get a Grand Slam breakfast of pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, juice, and coffee - 24 hours a day. But like many other fast food chains, Denny's has evolved over the years, the Daily Meal reports.
