Dunkin' Donuts plans to open its first three stores in the St. Louis area by early 2010, and one by the end of spring. Two stores would be at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, one in Kirkwood and another in Rock Hill.
For most DD fans its about the coffee. Supposedly their coffee is top notch for a chain. I've heard of people going there every weekday for coffee and never touching a donut for months at a time.jasontoon wrote:What is the big deal? Wasn't Dunkin' Donuts here for many years? Why are people getting so excited about a humdrum national chain coming to town?
I can understand if they were bringing something new to the area. But while St. Louis lacks many things, excellent donuts is not one of them. Are we supposed to cheer if Olive Garden decides to open a franchise on the Hill, too?
Personally, I'm baffled by the enthusiasm (on this forum and elsewhere) for Dunkin' Donuts returning to St. Louis. The best case scenario is that the whole thing falls apart and our robust local donut scene remains undisturbed. At the very least, they won't be getting a dime of my donut money (an expenditure that remains more significant than I would like, alas).

Exactly. I may have to stop in at World's Fair tomorrow morning and pick up a buttermilk cake donut - YUM!Grover wrote:Donuts don't make you fat. Eating lots and lots over donuts over time while not remaining physically active or maintaining an otherwise good diet makes you fat. Bring on the f'ing Dunkin'!
