| - I come to this location anywhere from 2-5 times per week. I'm somewhat of a regular, but always forget to "check in". There's a few things to know about this location:
1. DO NOT COME ON SATURDAY MORNINGS...unless you have plenty of time. Dunkin' is always extremely busy on Saturday mornings. I have seen the drive through backed up around the parking lot to Rt. 22 and the line at the door on Saturdays.
2. This location is combined with a Sunoco gas station, but it is not a convenience store. It is the full on Dunkin' experience.
3. They have recently hired a LOT of new workers. Service isn't slow per se, but a lot of the new workers are teenage/early twenties and lack people skills. Big time. Before they hired new people, I had a pretty good relationship with the workers. Now most of the time I order my coffee and go because the newbies aren't much for establishing relationships, even if it is just over a cup of coffee.
4. Kari/Kerrie (spelling?), Nicole (I'm afraid she doesn't work there anymore) and Jen are the nicest, friendliest people that work there, and they make good coffee! I always enjoy talking to Kerrie in particular. She's always friendly. There's also a younger blond guy who is nice and makes good drinks, but I've never seen his name tag.
5. Yes, the dining area is a little messy. There's usually a few dirty tables and some debris on the floor from the morning rush, but every time I've been there during a lull, someone is out in the dining area tidying up. They're just busy.
6. Order a medium Iced Cold Brew with 3 cream and 2 pumps of caramel swirl...it's delicious. Or, if you're craving the seasonal Butter Pecan, get equal parts hazelnut and caramel in your drink. Most of the standard drinks are too sugary and milky for my taste, so I always get one less pump of syrup or cream in my drink, and it's perfect.
7. If you ever see a group of men sitting in the back of the dining area, do yourself a favor and hang out. They are the most interesting people in Murrysville, from their opinions on Donald Trump to Pizza.
8. Kids get a free donut or a few free donut holes at this location.
9. They have the best hashbrowns, but if you like them crispy, ask for them to be toasted a bit longer. Delicious.
