    I got spoiled by some old shabby hole in the wall donut shop.. I'd always get a plain fake donut.. which I guess is an "old fashioned" at Dunkin.. at the old donut shop they were delicious and had a subtle hint of lemon, plus they ground their own coffee and used a 70 year old Bunn coffee maker and it was delicious without being hipster.

    At Dunkin they're always stale and the employees are ghetto as frick.. also $3 coffee is ridiculous. I will never go there again, because despite overpaying you still get shit product and horrible service by unpleasant black people.

      >Bunn coffee marker
      homosexual blog here but my grandmother previously owned and operated a truckstop 24/7 diner until she experienced health issues in the late 1990s. Ultimately, she sold it since no one else in the family wanted to help her run it. Makes me wish I had been old enough to help her at the time. I didn't turn 18 until 2004 (yes, I'm in my mid-30s).
      She had a few original 1970s Bunn coffee makers to brew up "black tar" as she called it. One survived the diner ownership selling and is in the possession of my uncle. That remaining Bunn still beats out every auto-drop coffee maker I've used. My grandmother would brew up a pot of "black tar" each morning from it before her passing in the mid-2000s.

    Could be worse... You could have these as the default coffee place.
    20 years ago everything was made from scratch in the restaurant. Breads, donuts, cakes, etc... Today, its all shipped from a warehouse, pre-made and flash-frozen. Other than adding some of the finish icing on the donuts, the "bakers" there literally just take them out of a box and pop them into an oven for 5-10 minutes. Same kinda shit a department store like Walmart does for its bakery section.
    Its all the more gauling cause its presented as being canadiana... Like, it insists upon the nationalism as though its something canadians should be proud of.

    Most towns dont have local donuts until you hit the suburbs, local coffee has only become well recieved in the past 15 years. Fast food breakfast that isnt shite continues to be a good market. I wager Dunkin has 30 years left outside of extreme population dense areas.

      Here in Pittsburgh, PA we have a chain named "Peace, Love and Little Donuts" that still produces handmade donuts in-house. I'll argue that local coffee took off in the mid-90s from west coast brands like Starbucks influencing the other areas of the US over time.
      Dunkin won't die, officially, but will be remarketed as a product you'll see only in grocery stores. The changes have been present since the company was acquired by Inspire Brands. The coffee aisle section in my local grocery store is made up of Starbucks, Dunkin', a few local roasters, and random other national chains. I'm referring to the bags of ground or whole beans here. Not the canisters of Folders and Maxwell House.

    Honestly their coffee is pretty decent, and this is coming from a "coffee snob". Obviously it's not as good as the coffee I make, but I think Dunkin' has the best out of any chain.

    Their donuts on the other hand, are abysmal. Literally every donut I've had from another shop has been better, the only thing worse than a Dunkin donut is an Entenmann's donut which at least doesn't pretend to be fresh.

      Because Dunkin', like Tim Horton's, flash freezes their donuts to be thawed/cooked in-house.
      Once the donuts are thawed/cooked, they sit in baskets.
      Last time I went to Dunkin' and had rock-hard donuts. I went back inside and demanded either my money back or replacements. The staff admitted that the donuts were stale and gave me newer cooked ones.
      Thanks to a friend's girlfriend that previously worked at a Dunkin. I was told that the cooking/thawing cycle usually is post-pandemic:
      >04:00 - 5:00 for the morning rush
      >11:00 - 13:00 for lunch rush on what donuts are running low
      >16:00 - 18:00 for the evening rush on what donuts are running low
      Her store would close at 20:00 and the volume of unsold donuts that were tossed out was crazy. Usually placed in a large garbage bag, water poured inside, and then tossed into a dumpster so no homeless or trash divers could receive free food.

    The average person isn’t bothered by the mediocre nature of the product.
    It’s generally easy to access on a commute when the average person doesn’t care if the coffee is average.
    The scale of the operation is usually wide enough to create a profit margin not available to gourmet or otherwise smaller coffee shops.
    The rollout of their franchisee program years ago created an impetus for smaller population centers to have a Dunkin where there otherwise wouldn’t be one.
    As with almost every “how does x still exist” question; they are profitable and most people aren’t very picky.

    I honestly have no clue, I live on the edge of a smaller city about 2m people. We got our first dunkin last year and you would think it was the second coming of Jesus Christ. People were lined up blocking traffic in the street. I finally tried it after the hype died down and I was shocked at how average it was. The doughnuts were mostly chalky and stale, and the prices were absurd for the quantity of food you got. Plus they sold the most horrific microwaved "breakfast" food. I just don't get it. There are cheaper local options that blow it the frick out all over the place.
