Last week I noticed one nearby, with zero customers at 7:30 a.m. Thought at the time that was strange, and wonder if competition with fast food newcomers are putting a dent into the DD business model. Even Taco Bell (yuck) is selling breakfast now.
Gas station convenience stores with kitchens are putting traditional fast food and even pizza places out of business. And gas c-stores are allowed in neighborhoods that would never allow a Dunkin’ or McDonald’s.
