odds on there being an 'incident' at that location in the near future, and the cops responding stop at dunkin' for coffee and a donut while on the way there....?
There are only two Dunkin Donuts in SF. Mainly because they are terrible donuts.
So, basically 0.
Shit coffee, too. And I say this as someone from the northeast and currently living somewhere are nine Dunks within a one mile radius of my current location.
The coffee is better than Starbucks, but that's not saying much. Starbucks is only considered good because they add so much sugar and shit you can't taste the coffee.
See, as a coffee hater, I like Starbucks precisely because it’s not coffee. If a coffee hater likes your coffee…it’s not coffee.
Really? I've had a Starbucks Americano and it was fine. Although that's espresso, not drip coffee. Drip coffee in general is just swill. Especially when it's some "breakfast blend" bullshit. I've never had a blend that's good, but most single-origin coffees are fine.
The beans at Starbucks are over-roasted to maintain a consistent flavor across all locations. It doesn't really matter what you get. Espresso might be slightly better, but it'll always be over-roasted.
🤮
I would suggest Krispy Kreme, but I haven't seen one of those in CA.
Edit: looks like I'm going to Chula Vista. Haven't had a Krispy Kreme in years.
