Actually, I think that the coffee is pretty standard from location to location.
They have special machines that ensure that the same amount of cream, milk, or sugar is used each time (based on what was asked for). They have even figured out the ratios so that the coffe (with sugar and cream) tastes the same from one cup size to another.
You can go into a Tim Hortons in Vancouver or in P.E.I. and order a Double Double and it should taset the same.
The only real differences are the water and the atmoshphere (humidity,temperature, air pressure - becuase of the differences across Canada).
That being said, sometimes I have run into poorer quality coffe at some locations, maybe they leave it on the burner too long in those locations.
They have a standard for that as well.
There are Tim Hortons in the U.S.
I saw one in Detroit (not close to the border).
