Jimmy Craig complained about his coffee one too many
times.
The St. Andrews, N.B., man has been banned permanently from his local Tim
Hortons, as well as the one in neighbouring St. Stephen.
Craig had complained about his decaffeinated coffee's burnt taste.
"It was like brown, burnt water," he told CBC. "I almost, you know, got sick
in the sink.”
After meetings with the store manager, the store owner and corporate office,
Craig finally received a letter banning him under province's trespass act.
Staff and management at the St. Andrews Tim Hortons are declining comment on
the issue.
However, store owner Edwin Dow told CBC that Craig was upsetting his
employees with his continued complaints, and that staff went out of their
way to satisfy him, even brewing fresh pots on request.
Craig - who is now brewing his java at home - is contacting a lawyer in an
attempt to have the ban overturned.
