That was my thought, too. That, and cancel police, fire & medical response. Call 911 and get a recording that says, "we're sorry, due to your company's decision to bar our agents from your property, we are no longer able to provide assistance. Thank you for calling."
Shit coffee and terrible donuts with long drive through lines in the morning. The lone employee refusing to serve police isn't what caused this. However, covid didn't help. I spend way less money now. This is because stores have shortened hours to the point of being the furthest possible from convenient. Also, I will make the choice to forego a purchase if I have to wear a mask to go in. It has to be a necessity for me to don a mask and complete my task. This is what covid was all about.
They used to have pretty decent coffee. I did business with the company that used to supply them. At least in New England anyway. They told me the story. DD basically went to the cheapest coffee they could find.
Not in my neck of the woods. We have them on almost every corner and they are always packed. I know someone who's parents own 4 of them. They have 3 vacation homes just in the neighboring state alone.
Might just depend on what part of the country you're in. I can't remember what town I was in but i did see one closed recently. I assumed because of Covid.
I was thinking about trying to get a Chick-fil-a franchise in New England a few years before they got here. After reading up about it, finding out they won't allow you to open on Sundays, and still being a little brainwashed by the left I decided it wasn't worth it. Boy was I wrong.
They shut down in my town after being open only 6 months. They never put their donut menu on the drive thru! You had to have them list the donuts and choose. They thought people were going to buy their "sandwiches."
Their doughnuts went to shit over a decade ago, and are way overprices. Most of their sales were commuters going for cheaper than starbucks coffee and better name than fastfood.
What's your source on Dunkin' refusing to serve cops? Was this a corporate-pushed decision or some local franchised locations?
Dunkin' next to my house is great. Seen plenty of cops there recently. Super nice manager, always remembers my name and order. Most people in there don't wear masks. I have a feeling that you're referring to local franchises.
they refused to serve police? fucking yikes

The only place you can get worse donuts is inside the dumpster behind your local dunkin donuts.
well that and their donuts are overpriced and their coffee tastes burnt without them dumping 3 heaping spoonfuls of sugar at the bottom first.
Strange franchise anyway. You have to own 3 stores to make any money

I was told that by a franchise rep for DD. Back when I was searching for a Franchise. I found most Franchise were not worth it.

In the Boston area, they could easily close 800 stores and no one would be the wiser. (There are 4 Dunkies per block).

Over expansion. Micro waved crap. Brown water coffee.

My wife got a gift card from work for DD and she picked up a dozen donuts last weekend. I’ll just say that I’m not surprised by this news.
