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.

This one’s easy. There are countless small coffee shops, breakfast restaurants, cafes, and small roasters in Canada.

I buy all my coffee whole bean from Canadian small roasters. They buy their coffee directly from the small farmers who grow, harvest, process, and dry the coffee.

If you don’t have the time to grind and brew your own you can also order pre-ground coffee. Or if you just want a pre-made coffee you can go to one of the aforementioned shops, restaurants, or cafes!

Either way, there’s not much reason to get coffee at Tim Horton’s unless you live in a very rural area and they’re the only game in town. Though in that case I’d still order coffee online from Canadian roasters (they usually offer free shipping if you order 3 or more bags).
