So since I don't have school anymore I can't drink my Starbucks coffee. There are absolutely no Starbucks here in the bronx. So I'm drinking Dunkin Donut's instead. Their donuts are delicious and thier coffee isn't that bad. My favorite right now is their iced caramel coffee. But once school starts again it's back to Starbucks.

I prefer Dunkin Donuts to Star Bucks, I have a starbucks on the corner of my street. Less then 5 minute walk and would rather drive to DD. I just love their iced coffee. During last weeks heat wave, 2 or 3 of those big cups a day.

That's really cool. I didn't have much money last week but I was able to go to Dunkin Donuts once. It takes me like five minutes to get over there.

Yeah I know. There is no Starbucks in the Bronx and it is kind of shocking because it's everywhere else except the Bronx. I've never heard of caribou coffee or cup o'joe. I'm going to go coffee searching next time I'm in school so that I can get familiar with the different places.

I never really liked starbucks. I prefer the coee I get at The Second Cup, here in Canada. I missed the crap out of The Second Cup when I was in the states, for most of last year.

Oh well I've never heard of that since I don't live and have never been to Canada. But I want to go over there one of these days and I'll probably go and get coffee there. If I can find it. Happy posting!

Greetings, ayumitakashi.
There is nothing like a Starbucks Frappacino, is there? They are fantastic! But they have many calories in them.
I, too, like Dunkin Donuts. I drink their iced, decaf, nonfat lattes. They are very refreshing and I justify them by the fact that they have a full serving of calcium (skim milk) in them.
Take Care and enjoy Dunkin Donuts.

Yeah I know they have a gazillion calories but I don't buy them eveyday If I did then I would be even more broke than I am. I just buy them every other day sometimes so they could get me through the day at school. This year I'm only going to school one day so I guess I'll only be buying it that day. But I love their Frappucinos. Thanks and I plan on enjoying my Dunkin Donuts a lot. ^_^

Personally Starbucks is not that special to me - I think the reason why people buy it so much is just because of all their sugary drinks and the fact that it's so convenient because they are located everywhere! We don't have Dunkin Donuts out here where I live - wish we did - heard great things about them. We do have coffee bean and I go there sometimes as well. I personally love coffee, and the only thing I get at Starbucks if I do go now that it's summer is the iced mocha frappucinos. Very good.

It's not only because of that it's because of the taste. I mean I like dunkin donuts too and it's because of the taste. Both have such distinct taste. Oh yeah Dunking Donuts is so good. Especially their donuts. Right now I am addicted to their Coffee roll and their new southwest chicken flatbread. I bought the chicken flatbread yesterday for my mom and she gave me a little bit. It tasted good but she didn't like it to much because it was a little bit hot. Happy posting!

I love to drink coffee from dunkin donuts. I have never seen dunkin donuts in california. Their bagel with cream cheese is really good too. Try that with their coffee

Oh I've never tried their bagel with cream cheese. I should probably try it next time I am over there and I have money. Thanks for the suggestion.
