Dunkin Donuts Day 2

|

I wrote about what I think of Dunkin’ Donuts near AL-Fanar. So I thought of giving it another try to have a better idea.

I went to Dunkin’ Donuts around 13:30 till around 20:45 and I’m planning to stay till maybe 23:30 or something.

Goods happened:
* Quiteness.
* Never complained about sitting there for a long time.
* Mostly empty (while the top roof has decent amount of people… I wonder why no one sits downstairs).
* I owned a spot that fits more 5 people. No one complained (and it got its own electricity socket).
* There’s a free WiFi spot near us (though I use my Wnet card).

Bads happened:
* Marina and Salmiya ill-mannered teenagers passed by and they were so annoying and loud. I could barely concentrate on what I was doing.
* Still bad taste of musics. Gladly I have my iPod.
* No ceramic cups for inside coffee. Just those foamy cups but thats OK.

Conclusion:
COME HERE ON WEEKDAYS!!! DON’T COME BY WEEKENDS OR YOU’LL BE ANNOYED BY THOSE LOUD AND ILL-MANNERED TEENAGERS!!!

Coffee house hunting: Dunkin’ Donuts

|

Since I was looking for a good coffee house in Kuwait that suits me, and since 248am inspired me to post about my coffee house adventures, I thought of sharing my experience

Today I tried Dunkin’ Donuts in Salmiya near AL-Fanar. Here’s some detailed infos about it:

Price:
*  I like the prices… Due to the fact that prices are up to the roof, things in here are quite the same.
*  Decent-to-Cheap prices… 1KD for 2 donuts and a 414ml coffee… I LOVE IT.

Space:
It has 2 floors; the ground one is for non-smokers and to order the stuff, and the top one is for smokers (and mostly for dating and all)

Quality:
*  I love their donuts.
*  I love their coffee.

Atmosphere:
*  Quite since not alot of people go there.
*  Their taste music sucks… Well, it just doesn’t suit the place.

Notes:
*  Most of the people who goes there are Philippines.
*  And some young common teenagers (Marina Mall guys and their likes) goes there by weekends.
*  Which I kinda hate.
*  Opens till 00:30.
*  It has electricity sockets.
*  Provides Zajil WiFi and you can leech from other surrounding WiFi.
*  Decently clean toilets.

Conclusion:
*  I’d come to this place every now’n'then.
*  I’d sit here for 30 minutes ~ 6 hours.

I’ll keep on hunting Coffee Houses till I find a good spot that suits me
