Re: Tim Hortons or Starbucks?
Did everybody who likes tim hortons leave their taste buds at home when the emigrated or something!!!
If the choice is between those two I'll take starbucks everytime - it may be crap - but at least it's not crap with extra added crap (if i wanted to drink syrup and eat sugar i'd go to a sweet shop). Fortunately there are more than those two companies in the coffee shop market (at least where I live)

Re: Tim Hortons or Starbucks?
I know a lot of people on here are always talking about 'Timmies' and unfortunately when I was over there I never got to try out their coffee.
Would just like to know if I am missing anything or if Starbucks is better (I do love their caramel macchiato's!)
What do you prefer Timmies or Starbucks coffee??

It would be a terribly boring world if we all liked the same things.

Re: Tim Hortons or Starbucks?
My pet theory is that Timmies is popular because the cream used is higher fat content than average. I drink no name coffee, and it tastes infinitely better with cream in it.
Personally I doubt its possible to drink Timmie's coffee black. Does anyone actually do that? It seems a bit on the brutally strong side to me, but then I am a whimp when it comes to these things.

If you think Timmies is brutally strong try Starbucks regular coffee without cream or sugar.
