Why do Canadians online seem to hate Tim Hortons? (lemmy.ca)

Maybe I'm just too chronically online, but people seem to complain a lot more about Tim Hortons than other fast food places. Even though they have a lot of the same issues.

Edit: I guess I have bad taste in fast food. I like Tims 🤷‍♀️. I think the prices are reasonable for fast food, and their stuff tastes better than mcDonalds. I don't drink coffee much so I can't compare to other places. I can get why people don't like the company itself though.

Personally, I think their coffee is disgusting and tastes like dirt poured into a cup. As for other people's hate, no idea.

    Yea because around the time McCafe rolled out in Canada Tim Hortons switched to roasting their coffee inhouse while McDonalds had their supplier create a similar blend to the old tim hortons coffee.

    Didn't McDonald's outbid Timmy's and get their actual supplier, and that's why McDonald's coffee taste like Timmy's used to?

    Whatever the reason, McCafe coffee is pretty good. I used to buy it for making at home until it jumped prices from 21.97 to 25.97 to 29.97 over a few weeks. Just a few years ago it was around 15.97.

    Coffee prices in general have spiked recently though.
