Canton, Mass. — In 2018, Dunkin’s first Next Generation restaurant opened in Quincy, Mass., featuring a new design with a modern atmosphere and innovative features. Now, just 3 years later, Dunkin’ is opening its 1,000th Next Gen restaurant in Woodstock, Ga. On March 26, it hosted a small grand opening ceremony outside the new restaurant to mark the milestone.
Next Gen restaurants feature a dedicated mobile order pickup area so guests who order ahead via the Dunkin’ App can get in and out of the restaurant faster than ever before. Guests can track the status of their mobile order placed for in-store pickup via a digital order status board. At select Next Gen restaurants, there is also a dedicated drive-thru lane for mobile order pickups.
Next Gen restaurants are designed to meet DD Green Achievement™ specifications. Stores that achieve DD Green Achievement status, including the one in Woodstock, are built with sustainable and efficient elements like LED lighting, high-efficiency mechanical equipment, low-flow faucets, and more. DD Green Achievement restaurants are performing better than designed. On average, they are 33% more energy efficient compared to conventional Dunkin’ restaurants.
New Next Gen restaurants will open soon in Mira Mesa, Calif.; Trumbull, Conn.; Las Vegas; Bridgman, Mich.; and more.
