Dunkin' Ends Non-Dairy Milk Upcharge Nationwide

Starting March 5, customers can add plant-based milk alternatives to their beverages at no extra cost, aligning with industry trends and guest feedback.

Dunkin' will eliminate the surcharge for non-dairy milk options, such as almond, oat, soy, and coconut milk, starting March 5, 2025.
The decision, guided by guest feedback, aims to enhance beverage customization and provide better value for customers.
This change follows similar moves by competitors, including Starbucks, Dutch Bros, Tim Hortons, and Panera Bread, who have removed non-dairy milk fees in recent months.
The policy shift impacts all Dunkin' locations nationwide, benefiting customers who choose non-dairy options for dietary, health, or sustainability reasons.
The change comes after a dismissed class action lawsuit alleging discrimination against lactose-intolerant customers, though Dunkin' denies the lawsuit influenced its decision.
