I think that the AARP needs to be Associated again with Dunkin Donuts... Hey,,,DD... U should do a commercial on this: That morning jolt of caffeine may be good for your heart, according to research published in the American Heart Association journal Circulation: Heart Failure. The study found that two or more cups of caffeinated coffee a day is associated with lower long-term incidents of heart failure, based on dietary information from 21,361 participants included in three cardiovascular health studies: Framingham Heart Study (FHS), Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) and Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS). Each study included at least 10 years of follow-up with participants. "The association between caffeine and heart failure risk reduction was surprising. Coffee and caffeine are often considered by the general population to be 'bad' for the heart because people associate them with palpitations, high blood pressure," study author David P. Kao, M.D., assistant professor of cardiology and medical director at the Colorado Center for Personalized Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora, Colorado, said in a statement. "However, there is not yet enough clear evidence to recommend increasing coffee consumption to decrease risk of heart disease with the same strength and certainty as stopping smoking, losing weight or exercising." Researchers used machine learning through the American Heart Association's Precision Medicine Platform to examine the dietary data from the three studies. read more

Dunkin' without the Donuts, it still breaks my heart that they dropped donuts from the name, why? No reason at all actually! This Dunkin' is located inside of what I believe is called the Prudential Centre. This was my first time coming to this mall and when I was practically dying of thirst, this Dunkin' saved my life by simply existing (I'm being very dramatic, but I was so thirsty). The staff was very short with words but they were super busy and since it was Dunkin', I don't really care. I ended up ordering a blue raspberry coolata and it was absolutely delicious and did in fact save my life (or just quench my thirst, whichever). Overall, this Dunkin' did a good job and I'm sure has done the same for thousands of other people who come daily, come give them some money. read more

Dunkin' - Blue magic. - Donuts Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Ordered a cold brew and they gave me an iced coffee (watched them pull from the original blend tap) and tried to pass it off as cold brew. I go here every day, I can tell the difference. read more

Munchkins? What do you call these doughnut holes? Anyways..I forget the name but I had half a dozen of their cherry filled and awful glazed chocolate. Hard and tastes like chocolate Nesquick powder. I'm not sure how people love these doughnuts since their special flavor...Oreo and their Chips Ahoy were super sweet and in my opinion, inedible because of all that frosting and sugar. It's like a doughnut sugar bomb. No thanks...even on free doughnut day, June 5th. read more

Dunkin' - Donuts Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

As Dunkin's go, a one is fairly standard, although a bit small. Only about five seats, so it's definitely intended for a quick grab and go. I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and it was packed! Not enough space for waiting so I found myself constantly moving to avoid blocking the pathway. The service was efficient, though, and my latte was good. So if you're in the need of takeout, this location should do the trick. But if you're looking for space to congregate, try another location. Update: I've been back several times. Seriously, the nicest staff. Worth the extra star. read more

Dunkin' - Inside- no waiting area - Donuts Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Love this place. The lady's and the manager are the best, always ready with my coffee, my poppy is always welcome, thanks DD team

I've been coming here since 2009. It used to be a few buildings down from where I worked, so I was a frequent customer. Stopping in this week, I noticed that not much has changed. This location is too small, and lines can be long as well as wait times. I'm a New England girl and a big Dunks fan, but this one just doesn't do it for me. I got my usual medium hot caramel coffee and tried an egg and cheese on a multigrain bagel. It was ok, but I've had much better and the eggs were cold and clearly microwaved, and not fresh. I usually only get coffee at Dunks, and not food, now I remember why. Meal and drink options are consistent with other locations, and they seemed to have the same offerings, but the atmosphere just isn't inviting and its too cramped to enjoy. I know this is located in Boston/Copley and space is limited, but still. read more

I mean it's MA so you know the Dunkin's are wicked inconsistent. Not this puppy though they get me off to a good start every time and they always have something good to say about the Sox which is alright with me. read more

Toasted sesame bagel with cream cheese plus vanilla French cappuccino is my to go to when I am at road trip.

Having more healthy options really works with my goal to adopt to healthy lifestyle At my off days, pumpkin muffin is my choice not to mention the calories included read more

We just stopped in for a coffee, latte and a donut. There was only person seemingly working the front and one person I think in the back doing dishes... IDK but they were slow but did get our order correct. Good easy location to find and also had a charger station to help me out. read more

To quote Casey Affleck on SNL, "I f*cking love Dunkin!" Actually, I'm not a huge fan but it's OK. This location however, had the absolute most friendly staffers I've ever encountered. It's amazing when someone can literally make your day with their positivity and attitude. Well done. read more

This is my go to Dunks almost everyday before work. Only reason I will not give them 5 stars is because the afternoon crew are not as great as the morning crew and my coffee is never as perfect. The morning staff are super friendly, they always got a smile on their faces as you walk in. They always recognize me and know exactly how I like my coffee and that just makes you feel special. Also, I'll admit it gets a little annoying having to deal with the people asking for money outside everyday. I know it's hard for Dunks to control that, but sometimes it just makes me want to skip it. But other than that, great location! read more

They are so understaffed it's not funny, The workers don't call your name for your order and they just have no patience

My order was just 2 glazed, 2 chocolate frosted. I had to correct her that I didn't order a drink. No worries. She asked about 4 times in a minute window what I ordered. Weird, but okay. She then gives me 2 frosted glazed instead of 2 chocolate frosted..... so I didn't get half the donuts I wanted/paid for after having to politely correct her a few times. read more

I live in a part of California with--gasp!-- no Dunkin' Donuts. When I visit Beantown this is the first place I hit when I wake up in the morning. The chocolate honey-dipped are the best donuts in the world. I'm sad that they've discontinued the crullers--I heard they were too labor-intensive to make. They're no longer twisted and they call them "Sticks" now. This DD's been in the same location since I was a tot, back when the block was pretty seedy. Now that everything's gotten so "upscale" there I'm glad to see that good ol' Dunkin has stuck around to keep it real. read more

As a transplanted Californian I have to say at first I was confused by the fervent love everyone has for Dunkin' Donuts... The donuts were fine, and it's nice that they're everywhere and stuff but I still didn't get it. Then I had the iced coffee.... Dunkin' Donuts Iced Coffee makes me poop No matter what. It always works, and It puts me in a great mood. Way to go DD! read more

I've never visited a Dunkin to my knowledge after all these trips to the US. It's truly the American version of our Canadian Tim Hortons. Inexpensive coffee that is rather uninspiring yet adequate for the needs. I came by here to try the iced coffee which was a decent strength. I'm so not into the fru-fruey iced mocha cappa latte deal (loaded with........you know it sugar!). I drank those when I was 17 but I couldn't stomach one of those these days. Service was direct and not your service with a smile. For the inexpensive coffee option Dunkin trumps the other places. I wouldn't call it an amazing experience rather sterile. read more

Dunkin' - Iced coffee. Decent medium strength - Donuts Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

* In 3D: Dump it Down the Drain * My wife and I used to frequent Dunkin Donut (DD) for years, for late morning and evening coffee. DD was also the first coffee that I drank from a franchise. (I didn't start drinking coffee until after college.) However, as my taste for "good" coffee increased, I started questioning the making of DD coffee. Why does the coffee at this DD taste different than the one at this other DD? Why does the coffee not taste as good when I use less cream? Why do the store-bought DD coffee beans not produce good tasting coffee; other coffee bean brands produced good coffee? And, why do New Englanders love this crap? DD is the reason I don't drink flavored coffee anymore; I would visit several locations, but I still could never get good French Vanilla coffee from them. There is no consistency between DD locations. You'd think that a franchise would produce consistent food/beverages between locations. One location serves coffee that is more burnt than burnt coffee from the other location. Their coffee would taste better if they made and kept it fresh enough throughout the day: dump it out after it has been sitting on the heater for 30 minutes or more. It's all in the light cream. I used to think they used half and half as the cream until I saw them make my order. They dump a lot of cream into the coffee. (No wonder the coffee texture has a full-bodied texture to it.) But, if you start using half and half, milk, or less cream, you realize that you end up with what tastes like watered down coffee -- if you're lucky; it depends what is in the water used to make the coffee. DD coffee is decent at best. (Can we get some actual coffee flavor in here?) With the exception of the donuts, breakfast food is bad too. I once ordered an egg and cheese bagel and saw them peel the eggs from a piece of wax paper -- as if the eggs were stickers -- before assembling and microwaving the sandwich. * Service * The staff is somewhat friendly in most DDs, but the ones in this location just seemed more interested in getting people in and out as fast as possible. They did get the coffee out quickly, without getting the order wrong. * Bottom Line * Come for the donuts, but go elsewhere for good coffee. read more

So I have become a Dunkin' Donuts regular customers. Me, the former coffee snob. I grew up in the Northwest, moved out here, worked for Starbucks, and turned my nose up at Dunkin' Donuts for a long time. Why the coffee isn't as strong, the name is spelled wrong, and it's got kinda icky interiors. But I've grown to like my coffee not so strong, and eh, spelling.....mine tends to get worse with ages, and it's not like I am sitting down and drinking my coffee there. I go to this store whenever I am working, because it happens to be right next door to work. They haven't ever messed up my coffee, or bagel when I get one. I consider that success considering how many people walk through that door everyday. My typical breakfast, if I don't get fruit? Hazelnut coffee with milk, no sugar with a wheat bagel with light cream cheese. It's a good way to start the day. If you've had a rough night and need the breakfast of champions, nothing (besides a big mac) will help you succeed like an egg and cheese. So it's now April 12th, and it's been a while since I reviewed this.....I have to say that the staff and this Dunkin' Donuts location is awesome. I rarely go into a coffee shop and become a "regular", but I am now, as funny as that is. They all recognize me and know what I get and it's sweet and appreciated. read more

I go to this dunkin' every morning despite the 4 that I pass on my way into work via the MBTA. Every time I step in, no matter how long the line is, I never wait more than 5 minutes to get to the counter. Everybody is always very friendly and helpful! I've been to many dunkin' donuts around New England and even worked there before and this is the only location I can confidently say that I've never had them mess up my coffee or sandwich. Veggie cream cheese? You got it. With a smile. Toast your wheat bagel before you put the tuna on it and warm it up in the oven? No problem. With a smile. These guys are a tight team of very accurate and friendly people. Thanks for making my mornings efficient and painless!! read more

So when I visited Boston for the first time in 16 years, I was somewhat aware of the place known as Dunkin Donuts. What I didn't realize is that they are on a pace to be on every street corner in Boston. Which I swear is almost true, because walking around the city in one day I saw at least 7 of them. That being said, there's a reason why the place is popping up like old David Hasselhoff pictures on myspace profiles. The coffee and donuts are good, cheap, and oh so nice when you are walking around in 28 degree weather. But out here in Southern CA, we don't have any Dunkin Donuts. Only Krispy Kreme. And that damn Krispy Kreme novelty wore off about 2 years ago. read more

I admit it! I love Dunkin Coffee more than Starbucks! The prices are better too.

America runs on Dunkin'... I think it's more like Boston runs on Dunkin'. There are sadly none in my hometown so while I was visiting I thought I would take advantage. This is a very busy location compared to the neighboring shops. They handle the overall demand of tourists and workers coming in however it's extremely loud and the service is subpar. If all you care about is getting your iced coffee and fast food breakfast then I guess you're good to go. It's pretty hard to miss your order too as they're shouting the entire time. I was on a hunt for French cruellers which they don't have here. Go to the Dunkin' in the Prudential Center if you want them. They go fast though. read more

I come here every morning for my iced coffee, it's because I work right around a corner from my office. The staff is very nice and friendly. I would recommend to all of my friends. read more

Dunkin' - My favorite cup of iced coffee - Donuts Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Even in the numbing cold, no drink is more ubiquitous in Boston than Dunkin' Donuts' iced coffee. In winter, the purple and pink plastic cups dwarf the customers' colorless hands, and in summer it's the same, though rudimentary styrofoam koozies are added to collect the sweat. Like a masochistic migratory bird, I moved north to Boston in the fall. New to the city and new to city life, I craved acceptance. When it did not come, I knew I would need to open myself up to the native rituals. So one day in late winter, I took an overdue walk through the pink gates. "One large ice coffee to go, please." Outside, in plain sight, I took the plunge. First sip. Cold and sweet. Like liquid candy. Sugar crystals stick to my tongue like diamond studs. Second sip. My stomach warns me to think this through. In defiance, a third sip. The tipping point, after which, I consume it in gulps. When it's finally conquered, I pulse in caffeinated communion with my New England neighbors. The street credibility that had so cruelly eluded me was mine. I strutted down the sidewalk, pink straw on my lips, basking. (Recommended Dose: One Per Lifetime) read more

A tiny little store, just like the donut holes. With bunch of sweet staff members. I have been to this Dunkin many a times - when out and about in Copley. Usually waiting for friends who arrive late. There hasn't been a time when I have been disappointed in my caffeine experience from this branch. The staff is really nice here, despite the employee turnover from time to time. This one can especially get busy during weekends and typically during the summer. But it is surprisingly never chaotic because there are quite a few DDs in the area. The store itself is quite small and hence can accommodate not a very big crowd. So pick and choose your coffee destination when in the area as you will be able to see from the door itself how crowded this place can get. Since the store is in the middle of all the Copley commotion, I have seen they typically run out of the popular donuts rather quickly - especially the Boston Creme, my favorite. That is my only observation as compared to other locations and is kind of justified. Else, I have never had an issue getting my favorite coffee flavors or the typical breakfast wraps that I enjoy on a weekend out in Copley. Strange as it may sound - I have some fun and some not so fun memories associated with this store - all around waiting here with my favorite cup of coffee for friends (don't worry, won't start a mini story here!). It's life as we know it... Good Times! read more

This Dunkin' location gets very busy. The line often spills out onto the sidewalk weekday mornings. The staff is friendly and rather quick, so the line moves faster than you'd think. And, yes, that's even with the construction guys ordering for their entire crews. It helps that they have a drink only line. Downside is that it's right near the door and causes congestion with the regular order line. Coffee from here is rarely burnt, which means they are always brewing fresh pots. Big points for that. read more

As busy as this place gets, they keep the damn line a-moving! Quick, accurate, friendly. One of the best Dunkins in the city, if I do say so myself. There is actually another Dunkin on the other side of Back Bay Station, which only has donuts and drinks. If you want sandwiches or other food, you need to hit this one up. A word to the wise - as much as they keep the line moving, this place still gets busy, so plan on about 10 minutes total (unless you're only getting a coffee) if you're ordering food during morning rush hour. If you're just grabbing a cup o Joe, you'll be out in under 5. read more

My local Dunks. This one is particularly cramped and dirty, but they get that coffee in your hand mighty fast. Sandwiches follow shortly thereafter. Product quality is comparable to any other location, and they've never messed up my coffee order here. (Side note: Has anyone else noticed Dunkin's people LOVE to put sugar in coffee, regardless of whether you ask them to?) I will confess I sometimes opt not to come here to avoid some of the most aggressive panhandling on Boylston, especially after I witnessed a physical brawl between two people asking for change (one was outside Tedeschi's). Pro tip: The line forms at the far end of the store, away from the doors. Don't piss people off by getting in line at the other side. read more

This is one of my favorite Dunkins. I work nearby and the staff here treats me and all of the associates that work at my location like VIPs every time we come in. Just stellar, friendly-neighborhood service, which is not often found in the city. Nolis is a gem -- so sweet, so caring, and an asset to the team. The manager is extremely good, always pitching in to help during peak times. The girls at the counter are efficient and despite a VERY tight layout space-wise, keep the line moving and the system going. Here and there, I've had a coffee come out wrong (cream instead of skim), but they are always quick to fix any mistakes and they MORE than make up for it with their efficiency and service. I love coming here in the morning - cheers me up all day! read more

I'm really quite surprised here. I thought that the East coast madness over DD was just some bad fad. After moving to Boston, I realized otherwise. Excellent Veg options Cheap Good ice coffee read more

Not a local, but this DD makes me want to never return to Boston again. I ordered a frozen hot chocolate today and the older woman behind the counter put my order in as a regular hot chocolate. I specified that I wanted frozen hot chocolate 2 more times after I noticed she put in the wrong order, but she just brushed it off even though I know for a fact she was listening. extremely rude. read more

The staff is great but the owner waters down the coffee. BUYER Beware, its the worst coffee in the entire Back Bay....

Staying at the hotel across the street, this seemed like the best option for breakfast. The first day, the service was normal for a place like this (not especially friendly or good, but not terrible) and the food was the usual crappy fast food breakfast (as expected, considering we went to DD not an upscale cafe) . This morning, however, was another story. The food was pretty much the same but the service was atrocious. There were two girls taking orders on a single register and I don't think they had a brain cell between them. Despite the fact that I explained my VERY simple order about 5 times (one combo, one single sandwich, 2 donuts), they still managed to get it wrong. And the worst part was that the reason they weren't paying attention to my order is that they were too busy making fun of the man with Downs Syndrome standing next to me. Completely disgraceful. I told the manager making the food about the issue but she just tried to rush me out the door. If I were you, or if I ever find myself in the back bay again, I would find another place for breakfast. read more
