America’s diner may always be open, but it’s permanently closing a location that’s fed generations.
Denny’s has closed its location in Oakland, California after 54 years due to high crime in the city.
The restaurant was located at 601 Hegenberg Road. In a company memo shared with local outlets, Denny’s said the decision was not one taken lightly.
“However, the safety and well-being of Denny’s team members and value guests is our top priority,” the company said. “Weighing those factors, the decision has been made to close this location.”
The company retains a Bay Area location at 1776 Powell St. in Emeryville, California.
