As a KK employee you two are expected to sell/service the customers, not eat the goodies yourselves!

I'll just have to wait until the boss leaves, then it's snack time.

I'm now imagining that KK conveyor belt with "Lucy and Ethel" at the helm. What doesn't get in the box or fall on the floor goes in the mouth!

Back on topic folks....Dunkin Donuts makes great, affordable coffee and delicious donuts!

I am so glad they are reopening in AZ- the two I used to frequent, University and Priest and somewhere in Mesa, closed down early summer for unknown reasons.

I got a question for people from places like Indiana. My wife says they taste different and better back east. Is this true? Anyway, I had some DD today and they're meh. I don't understand how people could pick DD over KK. KK has a better flavor when it comes to their donuts. I worked for KK for a year as a driver, never touched the donuts, but i do enjoy them over DD.

I think people have bad idea's of KK because when they started going to stores as "fresh" donut's, they weren't like when you buy them at the store.

If anyone is interested in KK, the times to buy them are about 7-8 AM. The other time is towards the end of the night, near midnight. They rotate on what donut they're making, i guess you could always ask if you smell fresh donuts.

Yeah, that one is open.

Some of the ones that closed down are not going to reopen, as far as I can see. The new and remodeled locations are nice; the one at Bethany and I-17 has a drive thru.... great for picking up a DD coffee, (which is great) and sometimes a donut.

I like a DD once in a while; I don't care about KKs once they cool off. Then they are just donuts. If I want to buy good donuts for the office, etc., I go to Bashas'. Yum.

Amazing how long this thread has lasted. We Arizonans like our donuts. Or doughnuts. Most of the new Dunkin' Donuts look like they're fairly upscale...I stop by the one on Tatum and Bell occasionally. I like the new small drive-through Krispy Kremes - there's one on the east side of the Paradise Valley Mall - right across from REI, which is an interesting study in contrasts - where you can get a cup of coffee for a quarter with your donut, which is a pretty good deal.

If I'm picking up a box for the work crew, though, I usually go to Paradise Donuts on McDowell near Good Sam - excellent, weighty Chinese donuts, always friendly service. There is also a branch on Cave Creek Road.

When I was a kid, the Dunkin' Donuts across the street from Tower Plaza was known as "Drunken Donuts" to the cops because of all the homeless people who hung out there.
