The workers here are really nice and easy to approach. Love the free samples and the clean atmosphere, easily one of the best locations I've been to. The iced coffee tastes great and I especially love the happy hour deal.

Of all the Dunkins , for some reason their coffee tastes better than all the other Dunkins around. And the man who works weekday mornings and gets me my extra large coffee and apple fritter is always friendly and quick. I've recently moved and I miss this Dunkin...

For awhile, the service here was really bad. It seemed as if they could not keep employees... Which is likely a management problem. You're not going to keep good employees if you treat them like garbage. It took forever to get drinks and they were often incorrect. Lately the service has been much better. Drinks are correct and service is faster. I also like the way they make the drinks here. When I get a macchiato, many Dunkins fill the cup half way... If I'm lucky. This store gives me a much more reasonable amount. That's worth a lot to me.

The DD is in the downtown area of Arlington Heights. Nice location and outdoor tables that have tree shade. Very clean inside with several tables to sit down and relax. Parking spots are limited but they have a drive thru if you’re in a hurry. We ordered breakfast and coffees. Coffee was brewed fresh and served nice and hot. Breakfast sandwiches were toasted nicely and were really good. Service fast and friendly!

This particular location has been a great community business that is service oriented. With the dozens of times I’ve been there, I have had an order go wrong. But, I was impressed how well they responded to make it right.
