    Hm a few years or so, don’t know exactly when the last time I would have had it. We used to go to Tim’s for on the road breakfast but a few years ago starting being really disappointed by it, switched to A&W.

      I think that may be the source of the discrepancy here

      my assumption is that most of us who say that Tim’s is shit are talking about 5+ years ago at minimum

      I haven’t gone to a Tim’s except to piss in a decade now, with just enough exceptions (nothing else nearby) that I can still hold my opinion that the service and food is crap. I’ve probably gone once every other year due to lack of options, just to get a coffee and a sandwich, and it’s been fucking terrible every time. the food, the coffee, the service, the experience. all of it

        I’m not sure what the discrepancy is. You say you went very sparingly the last few years. I would say that’s probably as much or more than I’ve gone the past few years, and that this last time I went, it was way better than I remember.

        5 years ago would go into the timeframe where it was our go-to, but we’ve long since changed to A&W.

        I’m just not at all sure what discrepancy you’re talking about. Do you mean my comments haven’t been consistent?

          I mean the discrepancy between your experience and those of other commenters who feel the need to downvote you for sharing your experience

            Oh I see. I think people just downvote shit they don’t personally agree with no matter how tame or on topic it is. 🤷‍♂️
