Goodby, Silverstein & Partners and Denny’s have parted ways, the agency has confirmed.

“We created something we’re really proud of,” said Jeff Goodby, co-chairman and creative director of the Omnicom shop. “We hope they use the best parts moving forward.”

Goodby declined to elaborate, but sources said the agency and Spartanburg, S.C.-based restaurant chain were having creative differences over the future direction of the advertising.

Denny’s hired San Francisco-based Goodby in January 2009 and made its Super Bowl debut with commercials touting its Grand Slam free-breakfast promotion shortly thereafter.
