When McDonalds made push into coffee market few years back, tims switched to McDonald's old bean supplier and McDonald's got tims beans. Basically traded. Tims went from avg coffee to mudwater and mcd went from burnt office coffee to top of market for fast food coffees.
Horton's has a unbelievably bad business model. They have so much different shit on the menu that at this point they don't make anything well. The baked goods are still good i guess, but it's hard to fuck up straight globs of type 2 diabetes.
One location used iced coffee instead of cold brew.
One location used milk instead of cream?
Staff need to be properly trained on how to make a cold brew. About half the time it is made incorrectly :(
Tim Horton's main problem, on its face, isn't substandard quality of product. Their stuff isn't bad. Their problem is that they'll hand franchises to any dumb corner-cutting fuck who has the money to buy one, and those dumb corner-cutting fucks will hire even dumber staff, and not train them (you mean pay you to teach you how to do your job? Fuck that. Learn on the job!) The same thing happened with their doughnuts. Franchisees used cheap shitty ingredients to the point that people thought Tim's doughnuts sucked, so they had to bake them in one location and ship them out frozen to the franchises. And here we are again with their coffee.
If Tim's ever learned to have standards when it came to franchisees, people would rapidly learn to love them again.
Tbh, I've had their iced coffee 4 times at my local. It was great 3 times, but the 4th the person had NO IDEA what they were doing and I'm pretty sure used regular coffee, then added WAY too much cream.
So yeah, probably a bit of both, depending on location and staff.
McDonalds is my go to these days. Tim's has become the Walmart of coffee

Plus the 7th coffee free or whatever shit from McDs is based. I work in a print shop and just printed a bunch of the stickers, every coffee free Lol
You're a bad man but I like your style ?

They're owned by burger king now so I think they are trying to be a burger joint now and have lost their identity.
At least Burger King has a proper commercial kitchen, Tim's looks like my disaster of a kitchen at home.

Interesting how many people will buy a poor quality product that they don't even like just because it's convenient.
Coffee addicts?
Just buy a coffee maker and make your own coffee at home
