I'm from Boston and so is Dunkin. I was really happy to have a location come to Fresno, even if the location is a bit on the inconvenient side (in the Fresno State student union) unless you attend or work at Fresno State.
My coworkers know I love donuts and also knew I was excited about "the donuts of my ancestors" coming to Fresno, so they got me these for my birthday.
(Therefore this review is "limited" due to the fact that I received these as a gift at work and didn't go to the location myself, but my coworker went and says it was fairly easy to park nearby - she found some metered parking which was pretty easy and quick -- and when she got there VERY early before work, there wasn't a line, although she said by the time she left many people had lined up behind her.
Being December, the donuts were cute and decorated seasonally, which honestly I don't remember from the Dunkin of my youth. It was nice though. My favorite donut, the Boston cream, was decorated with a light blue snowflake on top of the chocolate frosting. Other than the decorations, the donut was just as I remembered it -- yum! I think it had a bit less custard filling than average, and next time I have another one, I'll note whether that one has more -- because I do love a "high custard ratio." My coworker brought an assortment of a couple dozen, donuts, and they all looked good -- folks at work seemed to like the other flavors too. And she also thoughtfully brought a bunch of donut holes, for those who wanted to try them but didn't want to commit to a whole donut. I tried a donut hole too -- a cake donut hole with glaze. Great!
