i hate tim hortens so much. a genuinely embarrassing stain on the country for decades now
How come?
well lets see, the food is trash, the way the regulars talk about it, the way regulars throw cups all over the town, the over the top "candadian" branding when its not even canadian owned, the coffee is terrible, the service is terrible, the pay is terrible and the job is terrible.
surely theres other reasons, but thats a few
I hear that a lot. I’m pretty into coffee myself; buy different beans, roast my own beans etc., and honestly their dark roast (when it’s fresh), is actually decent
I get people have issues with the brand overall, but the coffee itself isn’t nearly as bad as people make it out to be.
Everything else you said I agree with.
hot take lol
glad you enjoy it
The McDonalds coffee is much better or the A&W one. Dark Roast was Tims answer to losing their coffee supplier to McDonalds.
I guess it’s preference and everyone has different palates. Personally I don’t like A&W or McDonalds coffee.
I cannot drink Tim’s Original roast though, tastes like watered down coffee. Their dark roast is the only one I can drink.
The Tims normal coffee is terrible...people order it for the double cream double sugar I guess
The coffee is the worst part. It tastes like chewing popsicle sticks. Hardly a wonder the triple-triple is so popular. Not to mention all their frozen confectionery drinks making people fat and dead.
