UPDATE: Dunkin' Donuts to reopen at Bethesda Metro Center


UPDATE - September 10, 2024: I have been informed that the Bethesda Metro Center Dunkin' Donuts is temporarily closed for renovations, and will reopen this Friday, September 13, 2024, despite no signage notifying customers of this, and the removal of the location from the national website.

Dunkin' Donuts has closed at the Bethesda Metro Center. The store has been closed in recent days, and men have been working inside, but no sign was posted to inform customers about the closure. However, Dunkin' Donuts has now removed this location from its website. Dunkin' Donuts recently opened a new kiosk one stop south on the Red Line, at the Friendship Heights Metro station. 


The donut and coffee chain retains two publicly-accessible shops in downtown Bethesda, at 4905 Cordell Avenue, and at 4943 Elm Street. A third store at Naval Support Activity Bethesda (a.k.a. the Naval Base) is not accessible by the general public. The Bethesda Metro Center Dunkin' Donuts opened in 2014.

For many, many years I was a daily, devoted habitue of DD, but their ever-climbing prices finally drove me away. Charging $2 a piece --plus tax-- for each tiny doughnut, plus the near-Starbucks prices they charged for coffee, outstripped the enjoyment they brought. $10-a-day habit should bring longer-lasting joy than they provided. I can get more or less the same cup of coffee at 7-11 and save a $1.50, and my waistline and wardrobe benefit from 720 unconsumed calories a day from three [Lilliputian] doughnuts not wolfed down.

6:26am it is true. Starbucks breakfast food is laden with cholesterol, sodium and fat. Add a sugary coffee and get more sugars and fat.
Stick to a piping hot drip coffee?

Sad - I was so delighted when this location opened

Remember the halcyon salad days of yore when you'd get handcuffed to a parking meter & ticketed for merely eating a banana to keep your K#19 levels up?

For such a vibrant, upscale sort of community that transfer Station sure is an uninviting, depressing, and occasionally dangerous eyesore. Want fumes with that donut?

Isn't "halcyon salad days of yore" triply (trebly?) redundant?

Indeed, Mr. word Polizi, I always like to be thorough while blogging so I can be identified amongst all the other Anonymous!

Technically, I think that would be, Anonymi.
