Dunkin’ is preparing to open a new restaurant in Pleasant Hill at 1900 Contra Costa Blvd., Pleasant Hill,, according to a report by Diablo Dish.
The restaurant is expected to open in December 2026, according to franchise owner Matt Cobo, who confirmed the plans to Bay Area Telegraph.
The approximately 1,700-square-foot location will feature Dunkin’s Next Generation restaurant design. The planned operating hours are 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, and the restaurant is expected to employ approximately 30 people.
Cobo operates Golden Gate Restaurant Group and already has three Dunkin’ locations in Contra Costa County, including restaurants in Walnut Creek, Concord, and Pittsburg. The Pleasant Hill restaurant will represent another addition to his local portfolio.
Cobo grew up in Walnut Creek and has maintained business ties to the region for approximately a decade. He first brought Dunkin’ back to the Bay Area in 2016 with a Walnut Creek restaurant.
Customers at the upcoming Pleasant Hill location can expect the chain’s established selection of coffee and breakfast products. According to Dunkin’s website, its menu includes hot and iced coffee, espresso beverages, donuts, bagels, and breakfast sandwiches.
The Next Generation format incorporates updated restaurant features, including digital ordering and dedicated mobile pickup areas.
Construction is already underway, according to the November report. However, an exact opening day and details about a potential grand opening celebration have not yet been announced.
