    Definitely a Starbucks fan. I like my coffee strong. :) I typically make it myself, but if I'm out and about and want a treat then I'll get either a skinny hazelnut latte or just an iced Americano.

    Starbucks coffee isn't "burnt". It's bold and strong. If you look on bags of coffee at the store, most say to use 2 tbsp per cup of coffee. Most places do not do that much.

    Dunkin Donuts for regular coffee. Starbucks for specialty drinks. But I haven't had any coffee in over a month. I find that I am too tempted to put bad high calorie junk in my coffee so I just cut it out completely.

    DD never makes it the way I want. Starbucks tastes burnt. I do like the green tea frappe. I'm too picky with my coffee I suppose. My fave is iced and I cold brew it at home by the pitcher. No bitterness like hot brewing and so smooth and wonderful.

    Dunkin is always good...always. Starbucks is a toss up...it depends if the person making it actually knows how to. It's too expensive to chance...

    I'm a Dunkin girl...

    DD is too weak for me. If I go to starbucks I get a double espresso and that hits the spot just right.

    the coconut mocha frappacino light is amazing and it only have 120 calories for the small size and it is totally worth it when i need a sweet coffee fix.

    DD actually tastes better to me, but I go to Starbucks for the customer service. In my area, price is about a wash, so no loss either way. But DD did get rid of my punchcard....so I could no longer earn free coffee there. For brewing at home, I prefer Starbucks coffee over DD, maybe just because of the way I brew coffee.

    Dunkin. But I don't think to go there often. I also really like McDonald's coffee!

    For just a basic cup of coffee I prefer Dunkin' Donuts. For a latte or other flavored drink containing hot milk and whatnot, then I prefer Starbucks. .

    If you want coffee flavored water, which you're expected to dump tons of sugar and milk into to make it drinkable, then Dunkin Donuts.
    If you want reasonably decent quality coffee, brewed pretty consistently, then Starbucks.
    For best results, support your local cafe / roaster.

    agreed

    They don't have Dunkin Donuts where I live (although I love the place, and visit whenever I go back east).
    Starbucks is all over the place though lol so I have to choose Starbucks for the Frappuccinos xD

    I think its an East coast versus West Coast thing.

    I grew up in L.A and now live in Arizona... Dunkin Donuts is fairly new in Arizona (well at least in the Phoenix area)

    I personally prefer Starbucks but all the people i have meet here that are originally from the east coast rave about Dunkins.
