Northwest Wichita’s long-awaited Dunkin’ opens this week

The Wichita area’s seventh Dunkin’ store will open this week, and the eighth will follow later this year.
Dunkin’ franchisee Dan Day’s new store at 3134 N. Maize Road — which sits just in front of the Sam’s Club store near 29th and Maize Road — is set to open on Wednesday.
The new Dunkin’ has a drive-through as well as space for dine-in. It’s a stand-alone store, similar to the one at Central and Rock, and has about 2,000 square feet.
Day’s eighth local store is under construction now on a vacant property at 3100 E. Central, just to the west of the Chipotle at Central and Hillside. Previously, the site held a credit union building, but it was torn down last year.
That Dunkin’ will offer drive-through only service, Day said earlier this year. The chain first started rolling out the drive-through models last year, and they offer dual drive-through lanes but no dining room service. Customers will still be able to get the full Dunkin’ menu at the drive-through store.
The two new Dunkin stores will likely be Day’s last in the Wichita area, he has said. His franchise territory stretches to the Colorado state line, and his next focus will likely be on western Kansas.
Day also has Dunkin’ stores in Derby and in Andover as well as four in Wichita: at 47th and Broadway, Central and Rock Road, Maple and West Street, and 21st and Greenwich.
