Dunkin’ brings next generation store to Fairfield County

Residents who live and work in Fairfield County can now experience Dunkin’s next generation store design with the grand opening of its new restaurant at 395 Monroe Turnpike in Monroe.

To celebrate the grand opening, Dunkin’ is offering Free Coffee for a Year to the first 100 guests in line beginning at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, August 7*. Free Coffee for a Year Giveaway recipients receive a coupon book containing four free medium hot or iced coffee coupons per month for 14 months, good only at the Dunkin’ at 395 Monroe Turnpike in Monroe. The coupon books will be distributed beginning at 10:00 a.m.

 All guests are invited to spin a prize wheel to win free Dunkin’ merchandise, while supplies last, and will enjoy a complimentary DJ and photobooth from 10 a.m. to noon.

Dunkin’ franchisee Emanuel “Manny” Pinheiro of Monroe Acquisition Co. will commemorate the occasion with a $3,000 donation to Connecticut Foodshare in conjunction with the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation. Connecticut Foodshare supports individuals and families across the state of Connecticut by addressing root causes, creating long-term solutions, and distributing nutritious food through local partner programs in an effort to alleviate hunger.

“We are excited to unveil our new restaurant to Monroe residents and the surrounding community,” said Pinheiro. “Additionally, we are proud to support Connecticut Foodshare with this $3,000 donation in partnership with the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation, and to underscore an organization that provides impactful support and resources to the local community.”

A check presentation and grand opening ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 11 a.m.

The 1,970-square-foot Dunkin’ employs 25 crew members and is open daily from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. The Monroe Dunkin’ features the brand’s new restaurant design with a modern atmosphere, innovative technologies and exciting elements, including:

  • Modern Design: The openness, colors and materials used in the design help to create an approachable, positive and energetic environment.
  • Faster Than Ever Drive-Thru Experience: An exclusive On-the-Go drive-thru lane will let Dunkin’ Rewards members who order ahead via Dunkin’s Mobile App bypass the ordering lane and head straight into the line for the pickup window. Dunkin’ is the first national restaurant brand to offer this type of drive-thru innovation and convenience.
  • Premium Pours: Dunkin’s signature cold beverages are now available through an innovative tap system serving eight consistently cold beverages such as coffees, iced teas, cold brew coffee and nitro infused cold brew coffee. Crew members will also use top-quality flavor-maximizing espresso machines to make hand-crafted drinks to order.
  • Increased Energy Efficiency: The new Dunkin’ is a DD Green Achievement™ restaurant, which is designed to save 25% more energy compared to a standard Dunkin’ restaurant.
