LA Snark reader Yana has reported in this post that Dunkin’ Donuts is hiring staff for a Dunkin’ Donuts shop in Torrance. This could be the greatest news ever! I woke up with a huuge Dunkin’ Donuts Iced Coffee craving this morning and to this day I still can’t believe it’s impossible for me to hit the drive thru on the way to wherever I’m going. Is it possible that our wishes have been answered? Is Dunkin’ Donuts really coming to the Los Angeles area??
Here is the job posting Yana found: http://www.snagajob.com/job-seeker/jobs/job-details.aspx?postingId=582675&fsr=true
The address is 20022 Hawthorne Blvd, Torrance, CA 90503
The Guardian’s business section is saying that Dunkin’ Donuts is looking to expand into California in the next 3 years: http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/feedarticle/7783716

Ok, I just found out that it is a Togo’s, and we all know, they carry DD coffee inside. Why would the ad say that DD is hiring then, and not Togo’s???? Hmmm, I hope someone drops by and let us know soon…..and i really hope we won’t be dissapointed…

I don’t live in the States so I have never had a Dunkin’ Donuts experience but that picture you posted has got my mouth watering! Is there any chance they may come to little old New Zealand?!

DUNKIN’ DONUTS… PLEASE COME TO THE “INLAND EMPIRE” OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA… OUR RENTS ARE ABSURDLY CHEAP… AND WE HAVE NO DECENT COFFEE OR DONUT PLACES…

Has anybody been to the store in Torrance to verify if it actually a DD store? The job posting is also on the DunkinDonuts website, which is very, very encouraging

Darn! Now you have me craving for it. You should have warnings before posting food pictures.

It’s a Togos. I live in Torrance and was so excited, but I double checked the address and it is NOT a Dunkin Donuts. I did attend the National restaurant show last year and was told by a D&D rep that Dunkin Donuts was making a return to Southern California within the next few years. The show was at the Los Angeles Convention Center and it was a D&D booth. I was told that they would be corporate franchising only….maybe the economy has halted this phase.

Thank you for your info.
But they keep showing those DD commmercials on TV, every day. It makes you think that they are working on it….
I am sad

Togos, Baskin Robbins, and Dunkin Donuts are all one company. If you guys miss the donuts, just go to Daily Donuts in Torrance on Crenshaw corner Sepulveda. They used to be Dunkin until early 90s but have kept the same recipies. DK Donuts on Torrance and Hawthorne have done the same thing but recently closed down.
