Literally says 1 cream on the lid but nothing in the coffee. Also bought a reusable cup and look how dirty it is.

Although they had to make more coffee the staff was very nice about lol. We love going to sit and have coffee. The vibe is pretty good in there!

September 16, 2024

Service was good but since when do they not have a full bake for open? No bagels in the morning can only order breakfast sandwiches? That must be new, but definitely annoying.

The store had garabage all over floor around the Garabage cans ...customers were grossed out...

★★★

This store is extremely slow. To the young lady working the drive through today- you should try and smile when your delivering someone there order. Smiling is easy to do. Sitting in the driver thru line for 12 minutes and only 6 vehicles is not efficiently handling the customers. When passing 2 large black coffee’s - asking if the customer wants a tray would be a start. Making eye contact with the customer is very important.

Left without ordering based on the state of the bathrooms. Toilet wasn't flushing and full of excrement. Wife had the same problem with the ladies room plus no toilet paper. Can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. No thank you!!!

This review is re: Travis-Jan 17/23. He was working the window. Outstanding young man. Pleasant professional. Asked me all the questions for my order. He was precise. IMO-if Travis wanted to manage a Tim Horton’s, I would definitely recommend him. 100% As a retired teacher i see— i am not talking about Tim Hortons I am talking about a young man who was hired who can go further in the company. Don’t give me the b. Glad u had a positive experience. That reply is a careless… as long as the name moves on with positivity. Never forget, its the employees who make u the money. So be respectful towards them

Im Canadian, so obviously I enjoy a bit of Tim Hortons, definitely had a fall from grace when the BK empire bought it but alas; we all need our fix once and while. Feel like the menu changes every week, so at least you can surprise yourself with something new thats probably medicore.

I love tims, although they never get my sandwich sauce correct. About 50% of the time, our sauce is wrong. We ask for Chipotle or Ranch, and we always get mayo. Its annoying. We have to take it back and get it right. It just wastes everyones time. Also, on weekends, the drive-through is very slow, I waited 20 minutes for a sandwich. There were 5 cars in line, which is shorter than normal.

my wife and I visited the drive-thru at the Tim Hortons location mentioned above. We ordered a vanilla iced latte without ice for my wife. Upon receiving the drink, my wife took a sip and noticed that there was no syrup added. Considering it an oversight, we returned to the drive-thru to kindly inform the staff about the missing syrup. The elderly lady at the drive-thru window was polite and understanding. However, we couldnt help but notice the presence of the manager standing behind her. As my wife explained the situation, the manager responded with an annoyed expression and instructed the employee to add syrup to the drink. At that point, we chose to overlook the managers rude behavior, assuming it to be an isolated incident. To our utmost shock, as we were preparing to leave, the manager made a comment that we would have to pay extra for the syrup. This statement was completely unwarranted and revealed a clear lack of understanding of the situation. We never asked for extra syrup, but rather, we simply pointed out that there was no syrup in the vanilla latte as it should have been. This incident left us deeply hurt and disturbed. The managers comment not only demonstrated a lack of professionalism but also indicated a prejudiced mindset. We were made to feel unwelcome and discriminated against based on our ethnicity. As customers of Tim Hortons, we expect to be treated with respect, regardless of our background. I am hopeful that this incident does not reflect the values and practices of Tim Hortons as a company. It is my sincere hope that the managers behavior is not indicative of the training and guidance provided to your staff members. Racism has no place in society, and it is crucial that all employees, especially those in managerial positions, are equipped with the knowledge and awareness to treat customers fairly and without bias.

Asked for two items and was told abruptly those items were not available or had to wait for cook time. I was willing to wait but they were not.

The drive thru attendant was incredibly rude and the cream in my coffee was spoiled. I was already having a bad morning and thought some food would cheer me up, the bad service has me wishing I didn t get out of bed.

Drive through speed and service is excellent, however service and speed inside the store is severely lacking. When you wait between 2-10 minutes with no one in line just waiting to talk someone to take your order and you finally talk to an employee the service is good. The wait to get your order taken especially when there is no line is extremely long

Okay lets settle this once and for all ..I know that management from Tim Hortons is going to see this and plus 100s of other people also .. To be honest these workers at the takeout windows and the ones that take the orders on via intercom REALLY HAVE TO TAKE A COURSE IN ATTITUDE MANAGEMENT...Im not pregidous by no means but when does a A LARGE BLACK COFFEE SOUND LIKE A DOUBLE ,DOUBLE? Being a cridick for the past several years has a major influence on costumers that go to restraunts like this .. This isnt the first time this happened at this store but at other stores also .. I have to give Tim Hortons a 5 Thumbs Down..Looks like Macdonalds coffee is on the order from now on ..

This location is fine but my gripe is with Tims in general. If youre offering a vegan burger, at least put it on a vegan bun. Someone needs to be the first to put a genuinely vegan burger on their menu. No mayo, no cheese, no having to ask for modifications. Just vegan.
