I hear all the DD hate in this thread but I gotta say there's nothing quite like a Boston Cream and a piping hot dunkin' coffee on a cold morning. Sure there's better donuts out there and way better coffee - but for my money that combo is classic comfort for me.

I ate their crap daily, for many years, without thinking twice about the flavor. Then one day I realized the donuts tasted of nothing but grease and sugar.

I love dunks, but it really is the only place you can go to everyday, order the same thing, and have the same person make it, and it’ll taste drastically different every time lol

DD is shit ass everything. Shit ass coffee, shit ass donuts, shit ass food. I dunno how the hell CT’ers don’t realize this.

Colorado. Fucking Lamar’s Donuts ruined me for life. So much variety, all moist, soft, delicious. They were better the simpler the donut because they were made so well. Out here every donut tastes like a chocolate chip cookie made at an Italian bakery (dry, mildly sweet, utterly flavorless)

I will say that bread is much better here though

aight I'll be the differing opinion. I like Dunkin's donuts. I don't drink coffee or eat the sandwiches, but as kids when the DDs started replacing the little donut shops and mom finally caved and started taking us there, the donuts are what I grew up with.

at least in the morning they're light and fluffy, never found them dry unless you're getting leftovers.

side note, Flanders' is probably the best around here

I'm old enough to remember when DD was actually good. Their donuts today are a pale imitation of what they used to be.

We actually have small donut shops in Connecticut as well and I will say I recently had some donuts from Big Y and they were fucking amazing. There are Polish bakeries that make really good donuts too…so there’s definitely donuts out here

FYI donuts are horrible for you, so it’s not something I can really consume on a regular basis

I'd pass 4 on my 10 minute commute. Two on each side of the road. Their coffee game has really gone up the last three years. Their doughnuts and food are trash, but their basic coffee is alright.

I want honeydew to expand down here, their breakfast sandwiches and bagels are 8/10

I don't know much about coffee though, honeydew seems about as good as any other chain serving over roasted coffee here.
