  • The Return of Baskin Robbins

Growing up in Lufkin we had a Baskin Robbins. 31 flavors of fun located at 307 Timberland Drive.

Currently, that is where Liberty Tax is/was adjacent to Moody St. and one lot over from Sherwin-Williams. The popular ice cream store closed for good over 20 years ago, and we haven't had a Baskin Robbins since.

As far as I know, we have never had a Dunkin' in Lufkin, Texas at all. According to some pretty solid rumors, this is all about to change.

The Old Taco Bell In Lufkin Is Getting A Makeover On Timberland Drive 

Usually, when we get a new Taco Bell in Lufkin they just tear the old building down and start from scratch. This time they tore down a car wash instead and built a new one a little closer to McDonald's on Timberland Drive.

That left a building that was perfect for another fast food place to go in. It was de-badged and left at 216 South Timberland Drive.

Now a few months later, construction has started on the site, right down Timberland from that old Baskin Robbins. When I google "Baskin Robbins Lufkin" a picture of that old Taco Bell comes up.

Considering the rumors that have been circulating, it seems to be a sure thing that we are getting a Dunkin'/Baskin Robbins combo location like this one in Nacogdoches.

I hope all the coffee, donut, and ice cream places in town are ready for a little more competition in the marketplace if all of this turns out to be true. Until I see the sign go up, I'm usually skeptical, but this seems inevitable.
