Denny’s says some locations will start charging extra for eggs amid nationwide shortage

Denny’s is the latest nationwide restaurant chain to announce surcharges for meals that include eggs in response to a nationwide shortage that has sent U.S. prices skyward.

In a statement, the breakfast giant said that individual markets and restaurants would be responsible for deciding the surcharge price. It declined to quote any pricing examples, describing it as a ‘fluid situation.’

‘Denny’s remains committed to providing our guests with delicious meals they love at the value they expect,’ it said. ‘We do our best to plan ahead with our vendors on items like eggs to minimize the impact market volatility has on our costs and menu pricing.’

Denny’s follows Waffle House among major food purveyors announcing egg surcharges. Many local media reports have also found individual restaurants adding surcharges in recent weeks.

USDA data show a dozen eggs now cost more than $7 on average and have jumped another 10% in just the past week to a fresh all-time high as avian flu continues to spread on many of the nation’s poultry farms.
