For drip coffee I find Burger King to be surprisingly good at some of
their stores yet no different from McDonalds at other of their stores.

Maybe someday they'll start using real coffee, too, instead of charcoal.
But I'm not holding my breath.

What bad things?

The real question is whether they're allowed to recycle the cups. McD
at one time went to 100 percent recycleable packaging and set up to
recycle all of it. They were informed by the government that they would
not be allowed to do this because it was "contaminated with food". It
seems to me that the same would apply to coffee cups.

Dunno whether it's still so but the consensus among coffee aficionados a
few years ago was that the best bet in coffee-to-go was Dunkin Donuts.
Since them McD and BK have made significant efforts to improve their
coffee and at this point they are all decent. Starbucks is generally
referred to as "charbucks" due to the excessively dark roast they tend
to use for everything.

Thought it was a tie between DD and Tim Horton's.

Could be--TH is to Canada as DD is to the US, so it wouldn't surprise
me. However I have to drive across two states and a national border to
get to the closest one, so they don't usually figure in my thinking.

Horton's pulled out of New England. DD is good, but McD has Newman's Own
and is very good. Any size $1 too.
