Honestly, I really hope Dunkin is taking care of their employees here because they work so hard. My wife and I frequent this location and it is consistently one of the busiest Dunkin’s in Knoxville. The employees are always working incredibly hard to keep up with the volume and they have been nothing but kind to us and they’ve never gotten our drink orders wrong. These workers deserve a raise.

My 3-year-old and I sat in the drive-thru for almost 30 minutes, only to find out that half the donuts on the menu weren’t even available — including every single chocolate option(For a donut shop, that’s already frustrating), but it got worse: you still managed to leave out part of our order. Now I’m sitting at home having to explain to my daughter why she doesn’t have the avocado toast she was so excited for!!
(Welcome to the world of disappointment sweetheart)
On top of that, the drive-thru asks for a 15–20% tip, yet the basics — accuracy, availability, and even basic friendliness — aren’t being met.
Hardin Valley Dunkin’ you have to do better. This was a completely avoidable and disappointing experience.

I am never going to Dunkin after this again. I always knew Dunkin was kinda hit or miss especially either from service or how differently they make the drinks. But after being rudely talked to and ignored multiple times from this location and the wait being over 20-30 minutes the experience overall was just terrible. And for the drink and food I got after waiting so long, the drink wasn’t even full and the Wicked munchkins are harder than a rock and do not seem fresh at all as well as they are not covered in sprinkles like the picture advertised. Again this was mildly the last straw for me with Dunkin and I don’t think I would ever even recommend going to this location let along Dunkin as a company.

Location is out of everything constantly. I'm at the point that I have to ask if they have coffee. Service is subpar, but they definitely demand their tips despite being out of donuts, croissants, and cheese.
