There are more Dunkin' donuts than there are Starbucks in Chicago (200 in the city, over 700 across the state of Illinois), so pretty much one within a mile from wherever you are. This one was the closest to my wife's aunt (located with a Shell gas station, but in a separate building with drive-thru), from whom we were borrowing her car during our short Chicagoland trip in June '26. Dunkin' is one of the few vendors that currently use Paze as a payment platform, where there is a special right now (get $10 in credit for spending $10 or more). So used the Dunkin app to order a half dozen donuts (which unlike in California, is still less than $10), added an extra donut to make it over 10, being able to choose the flavors I wanted. The donuts were ready when I stopped in, but this time, their special Fourth of July was not available, so just got another Long John. The donuts were good, perfectly fine for the convenience. read more
