To sip or not to sip: Tim Hortons' Lahore launch divides the internet

The queue at the first Lahore outlet of Canada's popular brew company, Tim Hortons, grew longer as the recently launched branch became crowded over the weekend. 

Tim Hortons opened its first branch in the country to a tremendous response. However, Twitterati seem to have taken offence over how 'elites are lining up to get a cuppa when the country is undergoing its worst economic crisis.'

Many took to social media to share pictures of the launch day and called out anyone and everyone waiting in queues for hours to purchase the popular coffee.

However, others came out in support of the citizens who spent their day, waiting in a line at Tims. 

And then they were the jibes. 

The store will be Pakistan's largest and first drive-thru coffee shop with more than 150 seating capacity. The second and third stores will open in Gulberg, Lahore on February 18 and 25 respectively.
