Im from Buffalo NY (the side of Niagara falls that is less then impressive then the Canadian side)and traditionally everyone in school would go before class and hop up on sugar and caffeine. When my husband was stationed in Louisiana we craved Timmy Hos. Now we live in Ohio and there are a bunch around Im able to get my Iced Capp and Tim bits fix any time. A little taste of home in a craptastic state.

Amazingly, everyone sits forever in the drive-thru at Timmy Ho's and there are never people inside. The drive thru lines literally wrap around the building and onto the street. It's one of the most nonsensical things I've ever seen. Anyone from Buffalo can back this up lol

Feester - I am totally with you on that! I'm Canadian as well and I have NO CLUE why people go so nuts for it! I would rather go to one of the many cute independent places any day over Tim Horton's!

Tim Horton's has no character whatsoever! It caters to the coffee and doughnut crowd and I have no idea why it is so popular here in Canada, especially when there are so many independant funky little coffee shops around.
