MJP –
In a surprising turn of events, a chain of restaurants with 1,500 branches has suddenly shut down in Ohio, leaving loyal customers of the popular establishment in disbelief.
According to residents, the Denny’s in Ashland, Ohio shut down last week.
Throughout the last year, the breakfast franchise has seen a decrease in the number of its establishments due to the industry’s upheaval.
The small village near Akron has now bid farewell to its beloved gathering place.
The place can be found on 378 Route 250.
As per information provided on its website, the company boasts around 1,500 establishments.
The closure sparked reactions from diners on Facebook.
In a post, someone expressed their fondness for Denny’s. “It’s truly disheartening that they are shutting down.”
They included an emoji depicting a face filled with disappointment.

Another person mentioned, “My spouse and I frequent that place for meals!” “Incredible, what a surprise!”
Even those who don’t usually visit joined the conversation.
One person expressed their sorrow with a heartfelt “What a pity!” Rarely did I dine there, but I despise losing yet another dining spot.
According to a comment, July 21 marked the ultimate day of operation for the venue.
The closest alternative is situated in Mansfield, approximately a 20-minute drive to the west.
Nevertheless, a Facebook user mentioned that the closure of that place is also imminent.
A worker at the Mansfield Denny’s restaurant verified the shutdown, although they were unsure of the exact date when it would happen.
The closure in Ashland may or may not be part of a broader shutdown affecting Denny’s establishments in Ohio and Michigan.
After declaring bankruptcy in autumn, Denn-Ohio, a prominent franchise operator in the region, shut down a total of ten stores.
This encompassed numerous individuals in the state of Ohio.
Likewise, according to The US Sun, another Denny’s restaurant in Pennsylvania has shut down recently.
