It’s a bit of a shame that Amtrak partnered with Dunkin’ Donuts for coffee. They make a decent cup (especially Dunkin’ Dark) and that’s totally fine for coffee drinkers, but their food & beverage products aren’t seen as up-market as Starbucks or Peet’s. For instance, Dunkin’ charges $1 for essentially the same old-fashioned donut that retails for $2 at Starbucks, $2 for the same iced coffee that sells for $3.50, and $4 for a frappe that costs $6 at Starbucks. Good for the consumer, but bad for Amtrak’s margins. Same thing for beer - I’d rather have a regional beer and pay twice as much as for a Michelob.
Also, DD espresso is trash
