I’ve been quite happy with their doughnuts.

Yeah the doughnuts are still good. Not as good as the days they used to bake in house. Tim Hortons is just a quick convenient way to get not-horrendous coffee. It was never gourmet and shouldn’t be compared as such.

It was definitely better pre 2015 ish, the dark roast was still drinkable last time I was home back in 2016, but unless I’ve very rose times glasses on it was much better back in the day

Nah, it was way better back in the day. Everything was baked in-house, and your meals were served to you on proper dinnerware with porcelain cups. It was closer to a diner than a fast food place. They changed suppliers for their beans in the mid 2000s and it all went downhill from there.

I was happy with them when they were actually baked in store and not at a factory.

There are still a couple of donuts that are good despite the severe drop in quality (apparently not even they can fuck up the honey cruller) but yeah, it used to be a thought process on which of a bunch of donuts I wanted when people brought in a box, and now it’s a crapshoot whether I even care.

Sour cream glazed blueberry was the last good donut I had from them. Existed for like two weeks a few months back.
