Would definitely stop in again and try other fun drinks.

I ordered a cold brew with sweet cold foam. There is no screen at the speaker box so I can't see what she put in, but she didn't read it back to me, so at the window I noticed she put in sweet n low instead of foam. I wasn't rude or impatient; I understand it's hard to hear things through the head set. I even apologized even though I didn't do anything wrong, and told her I said sweet cold foam. She goes "oh. So you don't want sweet n low?" In a rude tone. And I go "no, just sweet cold foam". and she says "well /that's/ just cool and awesome" SO sarcastically and didn't even apologize for her error or snapping. I wasn't being rude or short with her at all, and she had the audacity to not control her sour mood and anger and make customers who didn't do anything to her, like me, feel upset. at this dunkin specifically, I have always had the worse experience not comparable to any of the other dunks nearby. One of the problems is the food is usually over cooked and/or they tend to forget to put all my items in my bag so I will have to check my bag at the window and tell them. I usually come here at least 2x per week and I will not be after this experience. I genuinely hope you guys realize it's really easy as baristas to put on a smile and be nice to people who are being nice to you. As one myself, we tend to have to apologize even when it's a customer's mistake, because we always try to "make the moment right" by creating the most positive energy we can. It is inexcusable and extremely immature that this crew member decides to take her anger out on innocent people who are really patient and pretty understanding (like me).

Despite the obvious long list of to go orders coming in I was able to get my order fairly quickly and ate in at the bar top. Small place and could get overcrowded on a busy day but wasn't bad today.
