Tim Hortons has better coffee, DD has better breakfast sandwiches.  
I hate starbucks, the coffee was just really bitter whenever I went.  
I loved this little coffee shop in Wilson, NY, it was only open for a year, but man did that guy know his stuff.

I like them both but my new favorite is 711 coffee. There is one in walking distance from my office and a large one is cheap and a lot better tasting.

I like my women like I like my coffee: Ground up and in the freezer. And black. So I’m comparing coffee to coffee. I like Dunkin better because Tim’s roast is a little on the bitter side. They probably gind the beans a little too fine.

An engineer I work with (surprise) did a double blind test with his daughter and concluded that the creamer is what makes Tim’s \>\* to most people.

The deal breaker for me is Dunkin’s non-spill lids vs Tim’s half-is-going-to-be-all-over-your-car lids.

Dunkin \> Timmah

not really.

$1.65 for a large coffee from tim horton’s that is kind of meh.

$2.12 for a venti coffee from starbucks.

47¢ isn’t really going to break the bank for me.

DD = most caffeine  
SB = best quality/taste chain coffee  
TH = best compromise (price vs. taste)

I like to buy local / overall like these guys best: [http://www.fingerlakescoffee.com/](http://www.fingerlakescoffee.com/)

Um, not really.

If you’ve read or even heard about the book ‘Starbucked’, you’d know that Starbucks is less in the coffee business, and more in the milk/syrup business. They purposely char the shit out of their beans so that they taste extremely bitter, rendering the coffee gross as shit unless you add 5 shots of syrup/creamer.

As for the orginal topic at hand, I like them both, but I think Tim’s is a little better. Their “single single” is way too sweet, though. I’ve just been ordering it black lately and it’s been delicious. DD is pretty good, too.

I disagree and enjoyed a few of their blends, but what you said about their business model is very true.

It’s not to say that some people don’t enjoy it (I do), but in terms of taste (in most peoples eyes), they’re probably lower in the ranks compared to DD and Timmys 🙂
