Toms River: There’s always room for another franchise in town, and it seems like Dunkin’ Donuts has become an invasive species. While we’re happy a new business is opening, it surely would be nice for some variety. Earlier this year, construction began on a bland pad site with drive through on NJ 37 Westbound near Aldi. We at OCSN have been monitoring the progress and had it pegged as a Dunkin at the start. Now it’s in the final stages, and a help wanted banner has been hung.
On NJ 37 Westbound between Cardinal and Mule will be a new Dunkin Donuts built. Actually DD goes by Dunkin now as they dropped the -Donuts suffix a year or so ago. Either way the finishing touches are underway, with a paving job looking next. This marks the third Dunkin on NJ 37 Westbound in Toms River, with anyone traveling Eastbound forced to take a jughandle. Time to make the doughnuts, right?
Uggg. I want one eastbound past Hooper.

Michele Santarella Canavan Danielle Marie really ?!
We said that’s what it was going to be!!
Ally Williams
I like D&D because it keeps it mouth shut politically. ???? Here’s your coffee sir. Have an excellent day.
John Murray yes I agree, Starbucks says way to much
Do we know if it’s gonna be just a Dunkin or a baskin robbins too???
Gross.
As long as they stay politic free
How many fucking Dunkin Donuts does ocean county need for fucks sake? Coffee is average at best, donuts are worse than cat food, and the breakfast sandwiches are Worse Than slop you can scrape out of the bottom of a dumpster.
Just what we need another Dunkin’ Donuts ????
Well t least its not another bank or pharmacy
Any one know what the new bigger building further west on 37 in Manchester is going to be?
Tim Lawrence Dollar General
Tim Lawrence yeah what he said
☝️☝️☝️Dollar General
Shit coffee.????
I was wondering what that was gonna be but it’s very small, it’s in an odd location, and it’s very close to the new wawa they are building
Laura Jones where is the new WaWa?
Laura Jones where is this
Laura Jones what New Wawa?
Laura Jones
What new Wawa and where?
Where is this at?
Beth Lane yikes isn’t there gonna be a new wawa at the corner of 88 and Jack Martin?
????
These are ridiculous anymore, cars out into the road blocking traffic. Asinine.
What we need is a White Castle????
Linda Ann there already are 3! One in TR one in lacey and the new one in brick. But I agree I cant get enough white castle haha
Dale Kocher Where’s the one in Brick,? Didn’t know one opened there
Beth Lane that plaza where cost cutters used to be, across from brick gardens
Better than a starbucks
Another Flunkin HoHos with a 5 car max drive thru that takes 25 minutes to get thru.
I would like all the trees ???? back please Dunkin’ Donuts sucks
Kaela Celano right across from your work!!
Erin Parker yessss ????☕️
Kaela Celano ????????????☺️
TR needs to upgrade their offerings of franchises. Too many bland national/regional brands. But, I’m sure local franchises can’t “line the pockets” anywhere near as well as the largest (D&D, etc.)
For example, Rook Coffee is a local franchise with much better product.
Does anyone know what is going in on 88 west across from the resturant supply store in brick?
Jessica Sherman I think that’s a Dunkin’ too
It is dunkin too
Katelynn Kline
Ugh wish it was something else. There is a DD a mile up the road one way and 2 miles the other.
Cause we don’t already have enough of them? Their coffee sucks.
Thomas Helle better then wawa
I bought a cupnof wawa this morning didn’t even drink it
Nick, depends which wawa coffee you get
Sean Rambo Kayla Levine Melinda DiStaulo
Dunkin no donuts.
This should have been a Starbucks ????
Kris Fallaw-Piu agreed!
We should start a petition to turn it into a krispy kreme ????
Rich Marshall!
Lauren Ann called it
Wow these responses are overwhelming ridiculous can’t anyone just be happy you have a choice to go or not to go, everywhere you go someone’s coffee is not going to the best every day believe me I’ve had that bad cup even at WAWA. So yes we have another DD coming to the area and congratulations to the new owners on your success! WELCOME!
Jon Cartagena it’s a Dunkin’!!!
Would love a Starbucks drive thru down in Southern Ocean.
Jason Allentoff
Starbucks is scared of Ocean County for some reason. Other metro areas have dozens- often blocks from each other. We finally are getting a few, but it’s weird.
Ocean County Scanner News They have them in Target in Manahawkin and Acme in Barnegat but I’m lazy and I wanna drive up.
Jason Allentoff Lacey just approved near Home Depot with Burger King

Robert Everett I believe Starbucks is going in where the old Wells Fargo was next to wawa on Lacey rd and chipotle and bk are going by Home Depot and apparently a Popeyes is going where the old bk was!
Starbucks in stop n shop in TR. Kinda wanna see what that “Rook” place is all about, tho
Jason Allentoff i think one is being built by Burlington in Brick
Jason Allentoff isn’t there one on 9 and 70 on the Toms River side of the overpass
Scott Sheets Yes – I’m looking for Barnegat/Manahawkin area.
Max Orozco Rook?
Ocean County Scanner News never tried that.
Ocean County Scanner News https://rookcoffee.com/
A popular coffee chain in Monmouth. You’ve likely seen their stickers on bumpers and such
Rook is Ggoooood!
Ocean County Scanner News Great coffee in the Ocean and Monmouth county areas.
I’m not a fan. Wishing for something better than a DD
It is better than another Damn Car Dealership!!
Michael Roberts
I want a Starbucks!
Just more reasons to have accident right there on rt37…i saw someone hit that pole 2 days ago..people don’t know how to drive in this town..and I put a d&d right there that is nuts
Vera Arthurs
Toms River needs to stop approving busy businesses on TINY lots.
Greatest news I heard in a long time. Economy is flowing back. Dunkin donuts is investing jobs are created coffee is great. Haters are going to hate but that’s okay. Very good for the area
Mike Fitzgerald i heard it’s going to be a Biden campaign headquarters
Alan Arrowsmith very well could be
Mike Fitzgerald lol
Alexandra Izdebski lmao
Alena Jarvis I knew it
Marianne Gioulis another Dunkin’ ????
Steph told you it was going to be a DD!
We need a new Popeyes!!! The 1 there is garbage
Wish it would be 24 hour store. When u go to work at 4:30am there’s nothing open except wawa
Chick Fil A would be nice so I don’t have to drive to Brick and wait 37 hours for a delicious sandwich.
Rocco Poliseo I agree why does Brooke get things and we can same old crap
Lisa Marie
Seriously?? There’s one right across the street by Mellow Mushroom!!!
