I enjoy it, not only because I find the taste palatable, but that it is a social environ, an easy neutral place to meet that isn't as tacky as a McDogfoods nor as Cozy as a local diner.


Good evening Zzarchov; It's so true,I live in the country and I se all my friend's having a coffee and I chit chat.popcorn:D

Timmies is okay once in a while. Personally I like Second Cup or my local coffee shop in South Etobicoke called Birds and Beans. It is a shameless plug but they have excellent coffee. I don't go to $tarbuck'$ ever.

I wish they had an overflow spot for those who want to order 7 toasted bagels, 13 tuna salad sandwiches and a partridge in a pear tree. All I want is a damn coffee!!! It drives me crazy when I'm in a rush and some guy is at the order board arranging catering for 20.

Isn't that the way? It's just like when I'm in a hurry at the bank and I get behind some clown who wants to pay his seventy dollar phone bill in nickles and pennies.:rolleyes::p

I USED TO LIKE TIMMS
but now the cream machines ,they way they keep the sugar spoon ,these things sacre me ,cleanliness reasons ,and then the fact that they dont care to even look at ways of getting the coffee to us without us polluting the air by lining up like lazy idiots in our cars --then the cups

Ithink tims needs a wake up call --run the coffee out to the cars using people and carts --rolling thur the parking lot anything but this horrible pollution drive thur
Amen
thus I dont do timms

And he wants to separate the US coin out because he's taking a trip to Blaine after he gets his travelers cheques, all in $10 denominations.

I stop for Tim Hortons coffee when I'm in a town where I don't know where to get good coffee. Honestly, I don't know what burnt peanuts tastes like, but I imagine it would be like Tim Hortons. I prefer my caffeine concentrated, double espresso all the way. Nothing like 200 mg of caffeine to get you going.

They put too much cream in the coffee. A double is like 4 cream anywhere else. I like strong coffee with a little cream, not much. I always order an x-large with half cream. I would order quarter cream if it didn't sound so crazy to place the order.

Why do you say that Colpy,is it because of the taste,or the service or what .popcorn

I find the coffee usually bitter.

I don't go during the day, just at night when my crew needs a fix...........so service is not a problem.

I actually like their chili and soup.

tasty

we go to many different cafes and coffee houses, but there is something about tim hortons coffee
that is so tasty, I love it, but I can't drink very much of it, as it definitely does something to my nervous
system, and not after 3 p.m., or I will wake up about 1 a.m. and that's it for the night.

Sorry guys, but on a visit to Canada last year I was surprised that people even buy the stuff yet alone be so popular. It does not resemble anything that the rest of the world classifies as coffee.
The rest of the world put coffee in the hot water, not just show it to the bean. All coffee in Canada resembles light brown hot water, not only Tim Hortons, but the stuff made at home.
So obviously Canadians just like warm brown water which they translate as 'coffee'.
