I never knew about Tim Horton's until I took a trip to Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lake and Toronto a few years ago. I saw them everywhere.
I went in one time and tried to order some doughnut holes. (what we call them in the U. S.) and the clerk acted dumbfounded and kept re-asking me what it was I wanted.
I learned they are "Timbits" there! lol.

D) noneI work beside a Starbucks. Yesterday I asked one of the staff for their suggestion for a drink. She got all excited, made a suggestion that I tried. Bland as water. Tim Hortons. Not very strong. Usually too much sugar. On the occasion I try something different usually disappointed. Really never get how hard it is for some people to bold a pot of water.
Starbucks is overpriced swill. Never been to a Dunkin's & Tim's coffee is horrid. I prefer to make my own at home.
I've only ever been to Starbucks, and it's really not that great. I still go there a couple times a year, though. Just more out of convenience and I would give it a solid 5/10 for being neither above nor below average.

When I lived in Canada Tim Horton's was a fat factory that served up dish water and called it coffee. 2nd Cup should be the Canadian entry of choice. In general European cafés are far superior to NA. Even in Ireland where you hear "expresso" far too often, a run of the mill local eatery does better espresso. For the real deal there's Insomnia (Irish) and Costa (British invader - wrf else is new?) It gets better on the continent.
I don't drink coffee but Tim Horton doughnuts are the best.
Dutch Bros. I'm literally thinking about moving somewhere near a location.
Starbucks is below the bottom of the list. We don't have Tim Hortons, but I have heard it's pretty good. Dunkin is okay. I prefer the regional coffee (Green Mountain) especially the dark roast which you can get at most convenience stores around here without having to pay an arm and a leg.
I have never been to any of these places, lol. I don't think I'm a coffee person, I like tea, I prefer a strong black tea to coffee.
Timmies has better donuts, Starbucks has better coffee but too damn expensive
I have never tried coffee from Tim Horton's because they don't have them where I live.
But between Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks Dunkin Donuts wins no contest.
Heck, The coffee at 7-11 is better than Starbucks.Why you are doing this and make it so hard for me! I love both Starbucks and Tim Hortons!! But Starbucks must win here for the iced coffee
I don't drink coffee, but everything else at Tim Horton's is pretty awful.
I chose Starbucks, but my favorite is Caribou Coffee.
"Place?" Starbucks, for the franchise ambiance, not their coffee.
I prefer Dunkin. I haven't tried Tim Hortons but if I were to visit Canada then I would try it out
i like Alfred Coffee and you get to see a lot of movie stars
