Denny’s, the popular American diner chain, has reportedly joined a growing number of restaurants responding to the nationwide egg shortage by adding a temporary surcharge to its egg-based meals at some locations.

Denny's adds surcharges to egg dishes at some locations due to bird flu-driven supply shortages and rising costs.

Some Denny's restaurants will see a surcharge on meals with eggs. The SC-based diner chain is the latest to pass on higher costs linked to a bird flu outbreak.

Another breakfast chain is upping their costs due to rising egg prices. Denny's announced some locations will be adding a surcharge to meals containing eggs, and the pricing will vary by location. It comes as an ongoing bird flu outbreak continues to reduce egg supplies in the U.

Breakfast chain cites supply shortages and surging prices in its tacking on of temporary extra fee for meals with eggs.

Denny's isn't alone in this adjustment, as Waffle House announced earlier this month that it will start adding a 50-cent surcharge per egg. Meanwhile, Cracker Barrel is taking a different route, offering double loyalty points on egg-based dishes instead of extra charges.

As the cost of eggs continues to soar, national restaurant chain Denny’s says it is adding a surcharge for dishes served with eggs. According to Today, Denny’s confirmed the move earlier this week, blaming the decision on rising costs amid the ongoing egg shortage.

Denny’s is the latest restaurant chain to enact an egg surcharge as prices continue to skyrocket amid a nationwide egg shortage.

Management at Denny's locations in Clive and Davenport confirmed to the Register on Tuesday that their establishment had implemented a $0.50 surcharge on every plate a customer orders that contains eggs. They didn't say how long the surcharge will remain in effect.

Denny's is the latest big name to increase the price of eggs on its menu due to the national egg shortage, with H5N1 decimating flocks.
