Hortons is a pretty sad statement of our standards these days. They
used to make good coffee and darned good donuts. They had quite a
variety of donuts and made them in the store. They have cut way back on
the donuts and have tried tarts, pies and cakes but without much luck.
Now they have a selection of soups and sandwiches which are not great,
with the exception of the Thai chicken soup which they serve only
occasionally. Their coffee went way, way downhill. About a year ago
they brought out the dark roast, which was a little closer to what it
used to be, but I just don't like it anymore. I used to go to Hortons
once or twice a day but now it is more like once a month.
