Dunkin' Donuts opens in Walnut Creek

That's what I thought too, so I googled and found "sunny donuts". I could have sworn it was a D&D though for all the random times I've stopped in GP
 
Hard to believe there's actually enthusiasm for a DD opening.
I'd rather eat from the dumpster out behind a Chipotle.
 
DD screwed up in Modesto. They opened about a year ago, right across the street from a local donut institution. There's always a line at the local place, usually out the door in the morning. I only ever see a car or two in the drive-thru at Dunkin. I don't know if it was hubris or an oversight, but it seems like stupid planning to me.

East Coasters love to rave about the coffee. It's not that good, to me.
 
I miss Winchell's, they were my childhood. Used to be one five blocks away from my folk's house in Tracy...

Oh, and that Modesto donut shop (not Dunkin') has wicked good stuff, highly recommended.

From their web site:
"Sunny Donuts have been in business for over 25 years serving Northern California. We were once known as Dunkin Donuts but have since changed our name ..."
 
If they do their homework I bet every DD neighbourhood has a Wienerschnitzel and a Walmart within a block of each other.
No better way to spend the upcoming 4th of July than a stop at all 3.

Walmart in Walnut Creek. Yeah, that's gonna happen. :laughing
 
Dunkin Donuts coffee is not good. It tastes like hot water. I assume people who thinks its good are the kind that put 6 cream and 6 sugar in it.

Tim's tastes awful too. I drink my coffee fresh ground in a drip maker.

If anyone thinks TIm Hortons is good coffee, they haven't had good coffee or drink double doubles.

If Walnut Creek is Bay Area, then Tracy should be too. And there's been a Dunkin over there for a little while already.

Their donuts suck anyways.

I'm always amazed by comments like this about the East Bay. Did you not grow up here or something?

WC is more "bay" than the south bay. At the end of the day, who can get to the center of the bay (Oakland/SF) quicker? WC or Santa Clara?
