The new year often brings new beginnings, but for Dunkin' aficionados, 2025 has started on a rather sour note.
The beloved coffee and breakfast chain, known for its quick service and loyal following, has made a change to its menu that has left a bitter taste in the mouths of many customers.
A morning routine is sacred, and when a favorite menu item changes, it can feel like a small piece of the day is out of place.
Dunkin' has long been a staple for those seeking a quick, satisfying breakfast on the go. So when the chain decided to replace its popular $6 meal deal with a new, cheaper $5 option, it seemed like good news at first glance.
The original $6 deal included a hearty Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Sandwich, a side of Hash Browns, and a medium hot or iced coffee—a combination that had quickly become a crowd-pleaser since its introduction in August.
However, the new $5 meal deal, which offers two Wake-Up Wraps with egg and cheese (and a choice of bacon, sausage, turkey sausage, or no meat) plus a medium coffee, has sparked an outcry among customers.
The issue at hand? The perceived value and satisfaction of the meal.
The Wake-Up Wraps, while a staple of the Dunkin' menu, have been the subject of scrutiny for their size and price for years.
Many customers feel that these “itty bitty quesadillas,” as one social media user, James Cashen, described them.

The absence of the beloved hash browns has been particularly lamented. He said, “Where are the hash browns? They are the best part.”
Theater actress Emma Pittman, known for her role in Broadway's The Outsiders, has been among the vocal fans disappointed by the change.

Having previously praised the $6 meal deal as an “unbeatable breakfast deal,” Pittman shared her sadness in a video posted on social media, stating that the new deal will “take some getting used to” and openly calling for the return of the old one.
“I’m truly heartbroken” and “BRING IT BACK,” she said in the comments.
The reaction from the Dunkin' community has been swift and clear: they want their meal deal back, and they want it with hash browns.
Dunkin' has yet to respond to the uproar, leaving the duration of the new $5 meal deal and the potential for future changes up in the air.
