What's with Tim Hortons?
 

I have seen many posts about how great Tim Hortons. I have seen the Tim Hortons stores when in Canada. I have never been into them or drank their coffee, hot chocolate etc. Am I really missing something?

I'm over in Canada again in July so wondering whether I need to try myself a Tim Hortons.

OMG!!! You've never been to Tim's??? :eek:

they do the most amazing cinnamon buns, and I also love their vanilla coffee!!! Definitely one reason to move to Canada (although not very good for the waistline. ;)

Their doughnuts are nice but you're not missing a damn thing, just that North Americans have a weird fetish for coffee and this one is a purely Canadian firm named after a hockey player

I'm shocked!!! :eek: :blink:

I'm not, don't understand their fascination for wings and ribs either

Sour creme glazed Timbits - does it for me every time!

I was mystified by the mystique of Timmy's too, but then I had a chocolate dip doughnut and I thought I'd gone to heaven. The coffee's good, too.

I think to gain citizenship you have to like timms. Its the law:p

Re: What's with Tim Hortons?
 

In that case we should get citizenship now, let alone PR. ;)

Mmmmmm, Sausage and egg breakfast sandwich, with a large vanilla coffee, a very guilty pleasure after the kids have gone to school........or maybe a honey dip donut or timbits..........Mmmm

Canadian born and bred and I've never tasted anything from Tim Hortons,
but I do remember watching him play hockey....:lol:

Re: What's with Tim Hortons?
 

To me the coffee is very bland and under-brewed (if that is such a term). I sometimes have a muffin, but the doughnuts leave me cold.

Their coffee is sort of like Molson Canadian/Labatts Blue....bland and not too challenging.

My opinion is not held by many true blue Canajuns.

Owning a TDL franchise is a license to print money, IIRC. Their franchise fees are amongst the highest in the business.

Score one out of two then. I've never been in a Timmies and I don't watch hockey.

BTW Tim Hortons is now American owned.
