Being in NYC I never even heard of Tim Horton's but I took a look at the website and those bloom donuts look pretty tasty.
their walnut crunch is truly awesome.

Yes, my 3rd favourite doughnut of theirs! So freaking good.

Excuse me, Timmy IS the best coffee there is. Your dislike of it sounds like a handicap top me.
I can get my fix in any Canadian city at any time of the day and it's always fresh.
I pity you.

You're Canadian. We don't expect your taste to be refined. Go back to clubbing seals and building igloos, and drinking the chum-bait you call coffee.

This is starting to sound like a special Olympic event. No mater who win's the argument, the winner is still retarded.

I concede defeat.


LOL

Back to my timmy

Great. Exactly what this country needs. More overpriced, overhyped, bland-tasting generic burnt coffee shops.

Actually their coffee is better than starbucks and significantly cheaper.

The food is fantastic too.

And many of them are franchises, unlike starbucks.
 
I am a self proclaimed coffee whore and drink Tim Horton's coffee all the time. I drink coffee black and find the biggest variation in coffee comes from the water in which it is brewed. The local Tim Hortons by my work tastes pretty damn good, but some in other towns around me taste not nearly as good. For the most part I do enjoy Timmies coffee but do prefer my home brew.

I do however believe Tim Horton's will take the US by storm 😀


Hope you love Canadia.
 
Tim Horton's coffee sucks but it is convenient , their foods is overpriced and their factory made frozen donuts bite...
 
Tim Horton's is terrible.

I don't drink coffee, so i cannot judge that.

But the food is terrible, never fresh. Seriously overpriced as well.
Breakfast is disgusting.
McD's has far better, & it's not just microwaved warmed up crap like TH.
 
I went to Tim Horton's today for the first time. They (a lady and a person in a giant coffee cup costume) were giving out free (small) coffee coupons at T.G.I. Friday's (a Riese restaurant). So took one coupon in the morning, and I stopped by a Horton's in the afternoon. I ordered a small black coffee and 2 Boston Cream donuts. This was at the 7th Ave and 34th St location.
My thoughts:

- The coffee wasn't good. Slightly worse than Dunkin' Donuts', and worse than McDonald's Premium.
- The donuts were decent. Better than Dunkin' Donuts', fresher and better tasting, but not by a huge amount.

I might stop by another Horton's if they are still giving free coupons tomorrow, but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy from there. And yes, homebrewed and local coffee shop coffee is better than the rest.

It's a doughnut shop, not a coffee shop. Their coffee tastes like piss, but they make a decent cake doughnut.

:| Timmy Ho's is one of my favourite coffees and it's a freaking bargain.

They also make good sandwiches, they have a decent selection of bagels. And of course, Maple Dip and Boston Cream FTW!

:thumbsup:

I will admit that I prefer home-brewed and local coffee shops for really good coffee, but TH is great for a basic coffee on-the-go, and it is cheaper and better than Starbucks.

Agree that the food is really good.

Don't laugh at the Canadians. Once they are done taking over New York, they'll come for you and Texas :Q And they'll bring the tank.

We are smarter than that, we'll just hire New Yorkers and pay them in Timbits.

Sorry dude, their coffee = gross. :thumbsdown:

Sour Cream Glazed, Cruller, Old-Fashioned Glazed, and Walnut Crunch are freaking badass doughnuts though! That's all I ever get there, but I'm sure a bagel would be fine.
