It's a different scenario. Charging vs fueling has different constraints, and a facility designed for one is not necessarily designed for the other.

Probably more effective for some restaurant franchise to add EV charging as part of their branded setup. E.g. Every IHOP in the country has EV charging.

I went on a road trip recently and charged near a Denny's. I hadn't been to a Denny's in forever (for good reason, I was reminded) but I did this time. A quick meal is great timing for a charge.

Here in Ontario I never found a bad Denny's, on the other hand I never found a great Denny's. All the Denny's I had seen here are very near other restaurants so after the first couple of them I tend to eat elsewhere.

Most Denny's in Canada are not the typical truck stop Denny's(at least the ones in my area)

Been to a few in rural areas in USA, not the greatest experience.

I was impressed when a new Denny's opened up near me in BC Canada.

Food was good and decent selection(decor looks good), but when looking at 15-20$ an entree, may aswell go somewhere a little bit better.

It was fine except for the sausages were pretty gross.

Maybe it'll bring about a resurgence of drive-in restaurants.

At the least, Sonic ought to go in on chargers

That does seem like it'd be a good idea for them, actually.
