Tim Horton's is a Canadian cultural distinction from the US donut stores. The basic saying is that "Americans go to donut stores for donuts. Canadians go to donut stores for coffee." The saying shows a basic difference in how TH emphasizes where they place their quality. TH places the top importance on the coffee (the coffee to be honest is average, but always fresh, and is a good price vs Starbucks). While Krispy Kreme places the emphasis on Donuts. I remember when KK moved into Canada, everyone was raving about how delicious the donuts were, but that the coffee was $4!7. EDIT: Krispy Kreme not Dunkin Donuts
