With so many different fast food stores, drink sizes can get hella confusing. Luckily, Dunkin drink sizes are kept fairly straightforward.
I have to say I like this approach. Yes, I’ve got used to Starbucks drink sizes but honestly, when I first started going to Starbucks I found the whole thing pretty confusing.
If you:
- are on a calorie restrictive diet and what to know how much you are consuming; or
- want to know how many shots are in your beverage; or
- just want to know which size compares to what you usually buy at X store – this post is for YOU!

Dunkin’ Cup Sizes
There are only four different cup sizes available at Dunkin Donuts which makes it pretty simple. They are small, medium, large and extra large.
You can order small, medium and large for any standard drink on the menu. This includes both hot and cold options.
It gets a bit trickier for extra large. You can only order those for certain basic drinks.
Small: 10oz
The first observation I will make with the small drink at Dunkin’ is that it holds 10 ounces of liquid which is a bit unusual as most small drinks hold 10 ounces of liquid.
The small cup size at Dunkin is available for all drinks on the menu from hot to cold, frozen to refresher drinks. If your grandma only likes drinking a small amount, this is a great place to take her.
If you are budgeting 8oz of coffee (by that I mean milk!) in your diet you will want to be careful of this.
If you are ordering a caffeinated beverage, it comes with one espresso shot for cappuccinos and lattes, and two shots for macchiatos and americanos.
Medium Dunkin drink size: 14oz
If you are wondering how big Dunkin’s medium size is, it is in a 14-ounce cup. Starbucks does not have a directly comparable drink size.
The medium is 2oz bigger than Starbucks tall size and 2oz smaller than Starbucks grande size. You could call this the “just right” size.
The medium cup size at Dunkin is available for all drinks on the menu from hot to cold, frozen to refresher drinks.
If you are ordering a caffeinated beverage, it comes with one and a half espresso shot for cappuccinos and lattes, and three shots for macchiatos and americanos.
Large: 20oz
If you want to really treat yourself at Dunkin’ you can opt for their large size which is a whole 6oz more than the medium! It is almost a small and medium together which make it quite the treat!
The large cup size at Dunkin is available for most drinks on the menu.
If you are ordering a caffeinated beverage, it comes with two espresso shots for cappuccinos and lattes, and three shots for macchiatos and americanos.
If you really want to get your buzz on, an americano will come with four shots!
Extra-Large: 24oz
The extra large cup size which holds 24oz is only available for some certain drinks on the Dunkin’ Donuts menu.
You can get this for some standard teas and coffees. For instance, the Original Blend or Dunkin’ Midnight brews are available in the extra large size. If you are looking for a hot tea, you can also get it in the 24oz size. I find with teas this size are useless as the tea gets cold before you can drink it.
TIP – Extra large won’t normally be on the menu, but you can ask for it. On a store by store basis, they may be able to accomodate your request. For example, they can often do a cappuccino or latte in a size extra-large. In this case, you would get 2.5 shots of coffee.
