I am CANADIAN and i fucking hate Timmy's guts! it is the blandest place ever with so many fat roller pice of shits. ( fat rollers are useless fat people that are soo fat if you push them over they will roll) MOstly i hate how bland and boring it is in there.....and how it is seen as such a canadian thing.....and who it is owned by americans. Its fucked up...and thier food sucks quite a bit.

^it's actually not american thank u, it is in a partnership with an american. but im scared they will sell out.

lots of ppl either hate timmy's because so many ppl love timmy's or love timmy's cuz there is just something about it.

straight up, canadians hate it or love it. i personally, love timmy's.
im eating a blt right now..and an apple fritter. and a hot fruit smoothie

the dougnuts are okey...but they don't even make em there, they just microwave em from frozen...which makes it even crappier. but next time you go in there just think of how bland and boring it is, and how it works to the stereo type that that is what canadians are.

tim hortons used to be really good before they started freeznig their donuts and turning every vintage timmys into a mcdonalds.

I liked the days with the Tim Horton picture on the wall and the brick walls inside and fresh donutz with the ghetto box.

Those days i missed.

I've recently converted to starbucks.

How'ever the best place for coffee is the Bridgehead downtown on bank.

Tim's rocks, they cheat by putting salt in thier coffee though, that's why you can never make it the same at home... Haven't you ever noticed if you are thirsty when you get a coffee there you're even more thirsty after you've drunk it. They have some "magic" temperature for thier water too.. I just switched from Double-Double to milk-no-sugar, boy was that tough to do, but hey, another day, another donut!!!

i went to timmys the other night, and some locations, like near algonquin in ottawa, lock the doors from 11p-5a for safety reasons which is fair. but then they tell you to use the drive through, so we(i was with a friend) went and knocked on the drive through window and they wouldnt serve us. they said they are not allowed unless you are in a car. What kind of Bullshit is that. the are right behind a residence and right beside a bunch of apts and townhouess which are majority full of students, who majority do NOT have a car.

One of the reasons: its the caffiene inhibiting the water re-absoption in your kidneys, meaning you are retaining less water that you drink. This also means that even if you drink water after the coffee, the caffiene sticks around and you won't take it in as well.
They may ad salt to it as well..I can't really say.

They did sell out. The company went public March 24th, 2006. That means anyone can now buy thier stock on the exchange. The major share holders may still be the original owners though, but they made 42% on the first day after the IPO which is $$$$$$$, so I imagine they sold a tonne. Hopefully it was mostly canadian buyers, although I dislike the place. They are starting to invade urban canada and I dislike it.

I heart timmy's, but now that I'm back in Calgary and don't live near one I'm off it for the next 6 weeks. then I'll hit it up during my long drive back to whistler, then off it for good!
