Racetrack, it's a gas station around here. Coffee is free until saturday.


Free coffee that is decent is always the best kind

You'd have a hard time beating the many flavored coffees at Dunkin' Donuts, a chain that used to be strictly New England but is in the process of going national.

They sell a lot of other things too, not just donuts as you might think from the company name.

I make my own coffee these days, occasionally hitting a local place called Drip in 5 points, which is pretty awesome.

^^^ I do buy Starbucks bean and grind it at home, which is close to chain as I get.

Adding a syrup IS flavoring.

And the ones Dunkin' uses are good.

What non-dictionary definition are you using?

its a flavor shot..

Dunkins flavors are all the same coffee with a syrup mixed in, its not bad coffee though....

It appears you're more of a coffee purist than I am.

It's the small size of the shops, and the variety of other things on the menu that attracts me to Dunkin'
as much as the coffee. The fact that there's one only 3 blocks from my studio apartment is a plus as well

sorry. I am a coffee snob, i'll admit that.

I do not mind dunkin one bit though. There are two close to me. However, if im by either of those, Im right by Coffeee tree roasters(my local favorite) or Peets Coffee.........and i generally end up going there..........I used to go to dunkin alot. I also used to go to dunkin alot when i was in grad school there was one right by my builidng
