Milking the Dunkin' Donuts Story for All It's Worth

We received photos of the new Dunkin’ Donuts in Carroll Gardens from two faithful correspondents yesterday. The first, at top, came via camera phone from Graham B who generously remarks that, “It’s certainly nicer than your regular DD, but not sure if it will live up to the charm of some of the other local cafes.” The second photo, as well as the shots of the “brownstonish” interior and DD’s “official corporate joseph and jesus garden” on the jump come to us courtesy of Patrick D. We also noticed mention, in the comments on Curbed, that there’s going to be some more Double-D action in Williamsburg at the Graham Avenue L stop. “YAAAAAAAAAY HEART DISEASE,” exclaims the commenter. Eternal gratification to the one who can supply the first photo.

To the guy who let his kids RUN AROUND in the outdoor patio of a resturant…
Make then sit down and shut up, its a public resturant and your little angels are probably annoying everyone else but you. Resturants are not kid vacations. That would be Carroll Park with a fresh Crapamocha from Dunkin Donuts – carry one
Anon 10:45: I two wonder where do you send your kinds in FG? I know they have Brooklyn Tech HS. However, I am unsure of the middle schools in the area.
Jeeziscripes, it ain’t supposed to taste good! It’s freakin coffee! Whaddya think the sugar’s for?
My two cents:
Dunkin Donuts makes good coffee.
I would not complain if a Dunkin Donuts opened near me, say on Nostrand north of Eastern Parkway.

Agreed here that DD has decent coffee compared to SB dreck. They now make more money on their coffee than donuts.
But possibly because donuts have gone downhill – and only have few varieties available…not like olden days when they had lots of good choices.
I agree that building was nothing to write home about.
I love Dunkin Donuts. Call me low-end but they have much better coffee and cocoa then Starbucks.
I prefer DD to SB anyday. And that coocoo’s next coffee place (or whatever it’s called) a few doors over has weird hours and you always feel out of place going in there. However, I agree that with a side garden it could’ve been a cute place like the Fall Cafe or something – I am not thrilled at having a coffee place with neon sign and nean overhead lights. Why does DD have to be so abrassive in its decor? If they really are in the fight against the SB invasion, shouldn’t they be doing a little more to the interior decors?
The Donut House was really a donut house 15 years ago. It consisted of the counter then it became the diner.
What is up with Me and My Egg Roll? How do they stay business? Is it a front? It used to be the only game in town.
