Tim Hortons at Tott Hill Services off the A34. Coffee and Donuts. Nearly drove off the road when I saw the Timmys sign. Was pretty good to have a Boston Cream again!!!

At the end of the M20 in Dover, at the first roundabout there is a gas station. In that gas station there is a Spar store and in that store there is a Timmy's!! They sell donuts and muffins and coffee - I don't know what blend of coffee but the donuts looked like Timmy donuts

On 12 July my hubby, who is a lorry driver and used to drinking services coffee, took me for a drive and we went to the Timmies on the M20 in Dover as he had heard there was a Timmies there. Well I was never so disappointed in all my life the coffee was CRAP!!! They have the authentic packaging and a few donuts and muffins, but let's face it any true Timmies will have honey cruellers!! and they didn't have any of them. The coffee is the same CRAP that you get at any roadside service station. If anyone wants to prove me wrong, as I am a true Canadian woman and love my Timmies so I know the taste of their coffee, then please travel on down! I even told the people behind the counter that this was definitely NOT Timmies coffee, all they would do was smile.. hmmmm.. that tells me a lot!! grrrrr.. we live an hour from Dover but thank goodness it was a lovely day so we had a lovely drive. Hey clthomp --you said that there was a Timmies at Tott Hill Services on the A34 do they sell the authentic Timmies coffee or is it the same CRAP from a coffee machine like the M20? Can you please tell me what town is the closest to Tott Hill Services? Hey donh - it sure is not Timmies coffee that they are selling but they are using Timmies take out cups, which I think is dreadful!! Anyway just thought that I would challenge any other true Timmie lovers to prove me wrong on this coffee experience. The donuts may be Timmies???? but the coffee sure isn't!

Can't you miss something worthwhile like freshly made Nanaimo bars? :lol:

The nearest Tim Horton's to me is several km away and I can't even remember stepping foot in it.
