Colton will soon be runnin’ on Dunkin’.
The coffee and doughnuts purveyor is opening a drive-thru location in a former George’s Burgers at 1320 E. Washington St.
A recent drive-by revealed that signage is up and digital menu boards have been installed.
The chain is currently hiring for the new location.
Baker’s x Logan’s
Two iconic Inland Empire businesses are pairing up for a delicious holiday treat.
Baker’s Drive-Thru is offering a candy cane shake made with crushed peppermint candies from Ontario’s Logan’s Candies.
Of course, Logan’s Candies, 125 W. B St. in Ontario, is known for its handmade candy canes (and other sweet treats) and going to watch them being made is a holiday tradition for many Inland Empire residents.
The shakes are set to launch Friday, Nov. 25, but are available now at many Baker’s locations.
The shakes are available while supplies last.
Sweet move

The shop is now located at 5225 Canyon Crest Drive, Suite 96.
Hours are 10 a.m.- 4 p.m. Sunday and 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
Beer winner
Claremont Craft Ales is a winner — again — at the San Diego International Beer Competition.
The brewery won a pair of gold medals for its Jacaranda Rye India Pale Ale and Buddy Black Rye India Pale Ale, along with a bronze medal for its Happy Days Imperial Red Ale.
The competition was judged in late September.
Claremont Craft Ales is at 1420 N. Claremont Blvd., Suite 204C.
Tamale time
It’s that time again — tamale time!
Restaurants are rolling out the seasonal offerings.
Corona-based Miguel’s Jr.’s is offering two varieties of tamales: Chicken and chile rojo pork.
The tamales are made using co-founder and Chief Recipe Officer Mary Vasquez’s secret family recipe.
The tamales are available à la carte for $3.49. A dozen can be purchased for $37.99 by pre-ordering online.
They’re available at all locations through Dec. 31.
Del Taco has also brought back its tamales for the holiday season.
The pork tamales are available several ways: À la carte and smothered in either red and green sauce or chili and cheese.
The red and green sauce-smothered tamales are also topped with a dollop of sour cream and chopped cilantro.
The chili cheese-smothered tamales include a dollop of sour cream.
The à la carte tamales are available in a two-pack for $5 or a four-pack for $10.
As a bonus, the chain’s Del Yeah! Rewards members receive double points on any two-pack, four-pack or smothered tamale purchases.
Del Taco’s tamales are available from 10 a.m. to midnight.
Pizza pair deal
Pieology Pizzeria has launched a new pizza combo deal.
The chain’s Pick A Pair menu allows guests to choose half of any signature pizza — or create their own half pizza with up to three toppings — and pair it with either a side salad or a half Ooey Gooey Garlic Cheese Bread.
For those who think outside the box, the pairing of half Ooey Gooey Garlic Cheese Bread and a side salad is also an option.
Upgrades to PieRise and Cauliflower crusts are available for an additional charge. The gluten-free crust, however, is unavailable.
Cost is around $11.
The offer is available for a limited time.
