Dunkin Donuts Refuses to Get Woke: ‘We Are Not Starbucks’   Dunkin’ Brand’s VP of brand stewardship says “It’s donuts and ice cream – just be happy.”

Refreshing to see a business tell the left to fock off.

I had recently switched to Dunkin Donuts coffee at home.  Tried multiple brands and they were my favorite.  It's good to know they haven't lost their mind yet.

Donuts can bring us back from the brink?

In Philly there are 10 DDs for every SB.

Starbucks coffee and service is awful. DD coffee is just okay but it’s cheaper and they run those places like a machine.

I bet DD gets 3 times the people through in the same amount of time as SB. You are right, machine is a good way to put it. Factory

Nope.....For regular coffee...Around here (MI) Its Tim Hortons, then Dunkin.....I don't like Starbucks coffee...it's too bitter and since I drink it black, I'm not able to cut it with anything.

However that kind of coffee makes a great latte..which Starbucks does well.

I prefer a strong and bitter cup, so bucks works for me, I enjoy the taste of their coffee just a bit more than Dunkin, but I would not avoid Dunkin by any stretch.  it is my next goto.

I typically buy the breakfast blend starbucks for home, followed by original dunkin, and then 8 o'clock.....consumer reports rated 8 o'clock as the best value to taste coffee....

I went to Vancouver recently, there is a Tim Hortons on every corner it seems.  Hasn't made it to the Phoenix area as near as I can tell.  I didn't have their coffee so I can't comment.

Starbucks is more prevalent than Dunkin here, although a google map search shows a surprising number of Dunkins within 20 miles that I was not aware of.  I generally go for timewasters/meetings vs. actual coffee preference, and Starbucks works fine for that.  It's a familiarity thing for me, kinda like I Uber but don't Lyft because Uber has worked so why learn a new app? 

Not a fan of Pike's tho, and that is the Starbucks signature coffee.  I do like their lighter blends but they don't often have it brewed.

I prefer McDonald's coffee to either Dunkin or Starbucks. 

 

I know, weird.

Did you guys hear about Starbucks was going to stop offering French Vanilla creamer because it was deemed racist?

Just saw a video where a Taco Bell drive through employee goes on an anti Muslim rant. Just give me my crappy food and shut up please. I’m getting a new Chik fil A a block from my place soon and don’t care if they once opened on a Sunday or hate or  love gays or whatever. I just want some chicken sandwiches.

The Chick-Fil-A staff looks like the local High Schools Honor Society.  

Never gets an order wrong.  Always smiles, says Sir to me and very polite.

So refreshing.

Was on vacation November of 2018, was coming back from some city in Florida that I met my buddies for golf. Anyway, I hadn't eaten all day, it was like 2:15 so I stopped the Chic Fil A in Kissimmee, FL. I order my whatever number meal and the obviously gay kid that worked there, maybe 17 or 18, says to me "what would you like to drink: I said "diet coke" he replies to me " was that a diet cack" I went  and he went  He says ":OMG I am SO SORRY"  I was like, hah, don't worry about it, no big deal" I should have sued  but he did give good head.

Agreed. The one near me also has some elderly ladies working there, usually running out orders and stopping by asking if we'd like a refill, etc.

I find the food OK but agree on service.  Same with In-n-Out service, but I like the burgers better.
