Ordering Dunkin' through Uber Eats works the same way as ordering from any other restaurant on the platform
Open the Uber Eats app or website, search for Dunkin' in your area, and add items to your cart. You can order coffee, donuts, breakfast sandwiches, and other menu items for delivery to your address or for pickup. Delivery fees, service fees, and tips are added at checkout. The order goes to the nearest participating Dunkin' location, and you can track the driver in real time once someone picks it up.
Not every Dunkin' location partners with Uber Eats, and availability depends on your zip code. Some locations may have limited menus or different pricing than in-store. You can see which Dunkin' locations near you are available before you search.

Finding Dunkin' locations that deliver or offer pickup
Open Uber Eats and type "Dunkin'" in the search bar. The app will show you every Dunkin' location in your area that partners with Uber Eats, along with estimated delivery time and any current promotions. Each location shows its hours, distance from you, and whether it offers delivery, pickup, or both.
If no Dunkin' locations appear, it means none in your area currently use Uber Eats. You can check back later, as partnerships change. In the meantime, you can order directly from Dunkin' through their own app or website, or visit a location in person.
What to expect with pricing and fees
Dunkin' menu prices on Uber Eats are usually higher than what you would pay at the counter. A coffee or donut that costs $2 to $3 in-store might cost $3 to $4 on the app. This happens because Uber Eats charges the restaurant a commission on every order, and that cost is often passed to you.
On top of the menu price, you will see a delivery fee (usually $2 to $5 depending on distance), a service fee (a percentage of your order total), and you can add a tip. Pickup orders do not include a delivery fee, but they may still have a small service fee. The total cost at checkout shows all fees before you confirm.
Delivery versus pickup: timing and what happens next
For delivery, a driver picks up your order from the Dunkin' location and brings it to your address. Delivery usually takes 20 to 45 minutes depending on how far you are from the restaurant and how busy the driver is. You can watch the driver's location on the map once they leave Dunkin'.
For pickup, you order through the app and collect your order at the Dunkin' location yourself. Pickup orders are usually ready in 10 to 20 minutes. You will receive a notification when it is ready, and you can go pick it up at the counter. Pickup is faster and cheaper because there is no delivery fee.
How to handle orders that arrive wrong or incomplete
If your order is missing items, has the wrong items, or arrives damaged, open the Uber Eats app and go to your order history. Tap the order and select "Report an issue." Describe what went wrong and choose whether you want a refund, a credit toward your next order, or a replacement. Uber Eats will review your report, usually within a few hours.
For delivery orders, take a photo of what arrived if possible — this helps Uber Eats process your claim faster. For pickup orders, check your bag before you leave the Dunkin' location so you can ask the staff to fix it right away. If you discover an issue after you leave, report it through the app as soon as you can.
Promotions and discounts on Uber Eats
Uber Eats sometimes offers promotions for Dunkin' orders, such as a percentage off your first order or free delivery on orders over a certain amount. These promotions appear in the app under "Promotions" or on the Dunkin' restaurant page itself. Promotions change frequently and vary by location and time of year.
Dunkin' also runs its own promotions through the Dunkin' app, which may not be available on Uber Eats. If you order often, check both the Dunkin' app and Uber Eats to see which has the better deal on any given day. Some promotions require a minimum order amount or are only valid at certain times.
