So that's what it is. Had some young girl chatting it up at the drive through window but I didn't catch half of what she said.
I'm liking mcdonalds coffee better than tim hortons. Coffee is about the only thing i'll buy there tho.

I have to agree with you there. MacDonalds Coffee is by far the best there is IMHO. I've driven truck all over this continent and there coffee is consistent everywhere. I cannot stand tim hortons coffee.

I will have to agree with you on that...although I'm not much of a coffee drinker to start with, I really don't know why people rave about time horton's coffee?? They do have good donuts though

Hmm, try actually drinking coffee and you might find more consistency.

Seeing as your reports note they've got decent coffee, maybe someday in the future McDonalds can also have a epiphany & figure out tea. I drink my tea as a double double; McD's doesn't have a steeped tea, you get the teabag chucked in there. They always put the teabag in with everything, but the fat from the cream/milk always coats the tea leaves and seriously interferes with any flavor ever departing them. I have to order the cream on the side so I can actually taste anything other than hot water with cream.

McD's coffee is cheaper, they have a senior price, they refill and it is better coffee.

I gotta have my timmies every morning, only place on my way to work. Haven't had plain coffee at McDon's but the cappuccino (I think it was) was garbage.
Oh, and Mcdonalds has "mcbites" now, I give them a 3.5/5. They're like tiny seasoned mcnuggets.

Not sure why you were charged 53 cents though. I asked for a medium and they said "care for a large its free this week"....sure
Very good coffee imo.

I think they deduct the price of a small from a med or large, I know one guy that paid 33 cents for a med but all my smalls were free.

Can't remember the last time I bought a cup o coffee.
I like it the way I make it, or the way my gf gets up in the morning and makes it for me before I'm outa bed .
I have 2 sisters that stop by TH every day, sometimes 2x a day.
I wonder what their coffee bill is at the end of the day?
Has anyone here who buys their coffee pre made for them, ever figured out what their "fuel" bill is per year?
Maybe I'm just frugal, but I can't wrap my head around paying 500% markup for a cup of brew.
Th and mcd coffee is terrible, and the Fas Gas station in Two Hillls might have the worst coffee I ever had about 1 year ago. Spilled my travel mug and decided to try theirs. Threw it out!

McDonald's will perfect tea in the long run. They spent millions perfecting the coffee, tea will be next .

You gotta love it, and now there is talk they are going to sell the ground coffee so you can have a cup at home before you leave the house.

What do you know about coffee, you still trick or treat!
McD's beats Tim's for coffee, and the muffin for an extra penny is definetly welcome too. Short lineups are an added bonus.

Once I had a Mc'd's coffe I never went back to Tim's. Far superior, in my opinion. I have a medium coffe with a cranberry orange muffin every day for break,except now I have to pick up extra for the other guys in the shop too,since I was foolish enough to introduce them to it. It's weird though,some places give you any size for free,others deduct the small price so you pay 20 cents or whatever. Either way I don't really care. And their cups are better too, double walls keeps it from scorching your hand and it stays hot longer.
