Tim Hortons bans complaining coffee lover
p2pnet view Off Topic:- Tim Hortons coffee outlets rule in Canada.
Founded in 1964 in Hamilton, Ontario, the company merged with Wendy’s International in 1995, but its “biggest drawing card remains its legendary Tim Hortons coffee”, it boasts.
However, decaffeinated coffee served at an outlet in St Andrews, New Brunswick, “was like brown, burnt water,” according to devotee Jimmy Craig.
“I almost, you know, got sick in the sink”, the CBC has him saying.
So Craig isn’t welcome there any more. He’s also been banned from the Tim Hortons in nearby St Stephen, says the story, going on, “Craig said he voiced his concerns to the store manager and corporate office, then got a meeting with the owner, Edwin Dow.
“That’s when Dow served Craig with a letter banning him under the province’s trespass act.”
Now, “he can only return to the Tim Hortons if he’s on the job as a paramedic, responding to a medical emergency”, the story adds.

Good God, if their coffee sucked so consistently, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Is St. Andrews that hard up for alternate coffee shops? Anything to whine and complain. Bet he’s super pleased he’s in the news.

He has a valid statement when he says the coffee is horrible and tastes burnt! I have stopped drinking it for the last 3 years for that very reason….I will not throw my hard earned money towards substandard coffee. Caffeine is a drug and a lot of people need their fix….you poor little Tim’s robots.
The Irving stores have coffee that is hands down better than Tim’s however they do not have people frequent the Mainway’s/circle K’s because you cannot drive your lazy ass through a drive threw!
Think about it for a sec. $5/day…5 times a week times 52 weeks is $1300…..put it towards an RRSP for Christ sake.
