We are interested in starting a business there and would appreciate any suggestions.

i think that with so many transplants moving from the northeast, that several dunkin donuts locations are desperately needed and would do very well.

and perhaps 'jamba juice'.

or 'in and out' or 'koo koo roo' out of southern california

You can never have too many Dunks. Then again I am from MA which is home to Dunkin Donuts.

4 Dunkin Donuts in North Raleigh is not nearly enough for me.

Eh...I used to be a DD fan, but I swear the donuts are smaller at the new DD stores that their building around here. I'm paying almost a dollar for a mini donut!

Or....maybe I'm getting bigger?

I try to stay away from the Donuts even if they are mini. The coffee is what draws me there. Can't live without it. That is my first stop when I leave the house in the morn no matter what direction i'm headed in.

I'm glad they put one in Cary near me. They are supposed to be putting another one in at the intersection of Davis/Morrisville Carpenter (atleast that's what it says on the back of my coupon card) for anyone reading that's interested.

How about a drive-thru Dunkin Donuts?

wanderintonc · 08-10-2007, 03:36 AM

Yes, I was thinking 'Dunkin Donuts' too! Gotta have their coffee. Those smoothies they have now are good too. The new iced tea, not so good. McD's has better. But yeah, a drive-through DD is what I'd do.

Depends on who you talk to and where they are from. I'm from Texas and I miss kolaches (pronounced ko-la-chee-s). They can be sausage and cheese, ham and cheese, or what ever. There more of a breakfast food and usually served at doughnut shops, or it's a store all by itself. I think they would do great out here.
