Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed)

Anonymous Dec 25, 2016 at 8:59AM

I heard that Dunkin' Donuts has moved down the street on Union Street from the old one. The new Dunkin' Donuts is located where the old Trustco Bank used to be, right next to Pizza Hut on the corner of Union and Dean Streets. From the outside, the building itself resembles a typical house with three large picture windows in the front, with two in the front with a front door in between them (Union Street side), and one on the side of the building toward the front (Livingston Avenue side, which has turned into a drive-thru window), and three small windows on the other side (Dean Street side) with two dormers on the roof with windows. It opened on December 16, 2016. Since I work at Pizza Hut, which is on Union Street, and if I want to go to this new Dunkin' Donuts to get a breakfast sandwich, hash browns, and coffee (mostly in the morning), I don't have to walk too far, like with the old one, which was on the corner of Union Street and Keyes Avenue, right next to Hot Harry's Burritos, and Jimmy John's, which is a sandwich shop (about 1/2 mile away). From that old Dunkin' Donuts (on Union Street and Keyes Avenue) to Pizza Hut down the street on Union Street (where I work at), took me about 5 minutes. Now since it is right next to Pizza Hut, (where I work at), it will take me about a minute to get there. It will be much more convenient for me. This new Dunkin' Donuts now includes a drive-thru window (the old Dunkin' Donuts up the street didn't have one). Pizza Hut on Union Street where I work at, is now sandwiched between two places where breakfast Sandwiches are sold, Bruegger's Bagels, on the right side of it, and Dunkin' Donuts, on the left side of it. On Thursday, Dec. 22, I went there before work. It is bigger then the old one up the street (about three times the size as the old one). It is nice in there. They have booths there. People who work there are nice and friendly. They have a collage about Union College hanging on the wall.

This Dunkin Donuts is good in the same way that other Dunkin Donuts are good, so I won't be belabor the point too much. They have good drinks at a slightly lesser price than Starbucks, and the sizes on the drinks are much larger for an equal payment. There's a huge variety of donuts that rotates constantly, and the staff here are quick with making drinks, and they actually make them as you order them. What a novel concept! Though this Dunkin Donuts location lacks many of the things that make a fast food restaurant fast: good parking (sometimes you might have to go around the block a couple times to find some), and a drive-thru, it's still one of my favorites. The store isn't quite as crowded, and the donuts aren't picked over early in the morning because it takes a little effort to get inside the store, and most people rushing to work don't want to jump out of their cars to get their morning coffee. They're building a new location for this store with a drive-thru and bigger parking lot, right down the street.

Friendly staff, the food and coffee is always delicious only down side is its small compared to the amount of clientele but they're moving it half a block up soon to a bigger building.

Staff are super friendly, honest - will recommend things and steer you away from the not so good options. Got a cool new drink from a cool employee - mix 3 coolata flavors and it's heaven. Go here. Good.

Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed) is a coffee shop that defies expectations. Tucked away in 1621 Union St, Schenectady, NY 12309, USA, it's a little slice of coffee heaven that I'm glad I stumbled upon. The moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by the rich aroma of freshly ground beans, and I knew I was in for a treat. I decided to try their specialty, a honey lavender latte. It was a revelation. The combination of floral notes from the lavender and the subtle sweetness of honey paired perfectly with the espresso. It was a flavor profile I had never experienced before, and I was pleasantly surprised. The interior of Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed) is a blend of industrial chic and cozy comfort. Exposed pipes and metal accents give it an edgy feel, while plush leather couches invite you to sink in and stay awhile. It's the kind of place where you can lose track of time. But what truly sets Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed) apart is its commitment to the community. They source their coffee beans locally, support local artists by displaying their artwork, and even host community events. It's a coffee shop that feels like a welcoming hub for the neighborhood. If you're looking for a coffee experience that goes beyond the ordinary, Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed) is the place to be. It's a coffee shop with heart, where every cup is a work of art, and every visit feels like coming home.

At Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed), located at 1621 Union St, Schenectady, NY 12309, USA, the coffee is consistently average. It's not the worst I've had, but it lacks that special something. The staff are pleasant, and the shop is clean, but with the competition out there, I think they could try to add a little flair to their brews or maybe offer some unique pastries to stand out.,Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed),1621 Union St, Schenectady, NY 12309, USA

Dunkin' Donuts (Permanently Closed) is a coffee lover's paradise. The attention to detail in brewing is impressive, and their specialty lattes are a work of art. The cozy corner is perfect for reading a book.
