Just a little reminder.

Pisses me off to no end that they use the Canadian identity for marketing when they sold out decades ago.

Also their coffee and food has been shit for a long time too, coincidence? I think not.

    Tim Hortons have been pooping (autoassume changed that from popping, but I’m fucking leaving it!) up here in the UK, not loads of locations, and weirdly not in some of the places you’d expect. First one was in Glasgow, I believe, but there still aren’t any in Edinburgh, or London. I work up the Forth Valley from Edinburgh, and there’s one in the town I work in, and two more within a 20-30 minute drive. So it seems to be mostly small towns and Glasgow with a Tims.
    Doughnuts are the same pish quality as back home, but the (drip) coffee is surprisingly way better! Pretty sure they had to step up their game because they didn’t already dominate the “pop in for a to go cuppa” market here. They’re also one of the few places I’ve seen here in the UK where you can get a filter coffee.
    I’m participating in the US product boycott from here, in solidarity with my family and nation. Just thought the difference between quality here vs home was interesting.
