Went for breakfast and their sandwiches were truly disgusting- as if they threw together whatever scraps they had in the kitchen, and were way too overpriced, the same goes for their glue tasting muffins. Having read a bunch of reviews from this place it seems the owner spends way too much time on the computer responding to these posts than running the business.I didn't appreciate how they responded also, very condescending. Dunkins NEVER disappoints. Since the only way to post is to give them at least one star( which I regret even giving them that much credit), don't waste your time and money at this place, sooooo not worth it.

This used to be my favorite lunch stop on bicycle rides to Hamilton and back. Not having been there for a few years, I stopped in today. The place must have changed hands. Straight ahead is the pastries counter where we used to order coffee. It was almost empty. I asked for a pressed panini sandwich and she sent me not to the next counter but half-way across the room to a small desk, and went to find someone to take my order. The price was ok, but it took almost half an hour to make the sandwich, despite the place being almost empty. The other two people were waiting too. When the sandwich came, the bread was hard and dry, and what was inside didn't taste fresh or good.

Wonderful place. A guy called Aidan took my order- responsible, upbeat fellow. The Liam dude who made my tea was very thoughtful and professional too. Great place to stop by in Manchester!

I have never left a review for anything in my life, but this experience was painful. I drove 2 1/2 hours to come visit this town and go to the beach. We decided to stop here and grab coffee and sandwiches for lunch to bring to the beach. 2 coffees, 2 sandwiches and a cookie + a tip came out to about $50. No big deal, I’m not cheap and I’m willing to spend the money if it were actually worth it. The coffee that I ordered came out as white as a sheet of paper, it must’ve been straight milk and the two sandwiches we ordered were average at best. All of this wouldn’t have mattered to me because I’ve had bad food plenty of times and I honestly just shrug my shoulders and go on with my day. However, at this place, we waited almost 50 (FIFTY) minutes for the 2 sandwiches to come out. I’ve worked in restaurants and I know sometimes a place gets busy or you’re short staffed but this place had about 10+ employees behind the counter with maybe 1 guy making sandwiches?? On the bright side, the homemade cookie was pretty good. I’m sorry to leave you such a bad review but I’m really encouraging others if you want to make it to the beach while the sun is still up, save your time and go elsewhere - even Dunkin across the street would’ve been better.

I ordered one of their turkey sandwiches and was disappointed because there was so little turkey in the sandwich. Mostly vegetables. It was not a true deli sandwich at all and I felt like they scrimped on the turkey for a $12 Sammy…

Amazing food and coffee. Get the savory biscuit breakfast sandwich

Service is always painfully slow, and orders are often wrong. But most of all, sandwich had no filling, 95% bread. I would not have left the review if the sandwich wasn’t so bare and empty.
