Another f-ing right-wing weirdo, lovely. I haven't been in a DD since I was 10 and we don't have them here on the left coast AFAIK but if there was any kind of boycott by these freaks, hell I'd mail order a half dozen boxes (if they do MO) and share at the local food pantry. DD donuts are awesome, loved them as a New England kid.
No, they're not. The donut quality has gone to the toilet, both in terms of workmanship (they come in frozen and par-baked, I think) and materials (they taste plasticine). The coffee tastes like dishwater.
Service is still quick and not terrible, and they're everwhere, and reliable. But by no means are they awesome.
(I still get a boston cream donut and medium regular after I've been away for a while. It's just a sign of home for me, but that's maybe twice a year at best.)
Agreed on this summary - however - DD's cold brew is significantly better than the majority of chain spots. Hell, it's even better/more consistent than a lot of small local shops in my area as well.
They're a disappointment these days. Few varities, often sold out. Thry really want to move towards the crappy food Starbucks sells and figure out $7 coffee.
I'd rather go to a local chain which has better variety and manages to have stock at 2PM.
