Tim Hortons

Tim Hortons is my guilty pleasure. I’m on a limited carbs diet but those donuts like to call out to me and I can’t resist. My favorite is the Honey Cruller donut, which is high in saturated fat, high in sugar, has 310 calories, but is just OH SO GOOD! I got the calorie count on this donut from
. I also like their timbits too.
As for the place itself, not much atmosphere, very plain looking and often filled since it’s a small cramped spot. The Tim Hortons I like better is in Downtown near Granville and Nelson area, because that one is huge with 2 floors.
Just popping in and out for my sweet tooth cravings so I don’t worry too much about the décor. I only do take-​out at the Richmond Center location because I can find a nicer area to sit in the mall with my Tim Hortons take out. If you ever want to look for a spot to sit in Richmond Centre with your take out, try the sofa-​esque chairs near the Apple store. I like to munch on my Timbits or donuts in that area and people watch the Apple customers.

I had to try Tim Horton’s because that’s what you do as a tourist in Canada. It’s just donuts and coffee drinks. Nothing special. No fancy donuts you haven’t seen elsewhere before. It’s not worth waiting in a long line though so just keep on walking if there is a line.

I used to go to this Tim’s back when I worked in Richmond. I had just enough time to catch the Steveston bus if my first bus was good to me, that is assuming that people in front of me were efficient in ordering. I would actually just get a basic steamed tea and 6 Tim Bits for the road.

Just barely. Obviously being in a prime location at the best mall in Richmond, right beside the main doors, doesn’t help the busy action here. Always 10 ppl deep here.
Used to have a «coffee only» line back in the summer, turns out it didn’t work with ppl just budding in.
It’s quite the noisy place and pretty cramped. Booth seating in the middle lane.

The workers here are nice, but they don’t really follow the guidelines for Tim Hortons rules… (I’ve worked at a Tim Hortons before)
1. They apparently «charge» for honey packs? I set the girl straight. That is NOT true.
2. They don’t cut the sandwiches in half which is super annoying. It’s harder to eat with a full 6 inch sandwich in my hands.
3. Their lattes… Always taste bad. Either they forget to sweeten the drink, or they don’t stir the drink if there is any honey in it. And the chocolate lattes always end up with hardly any chocolate inside.
They also take FOREVER to get through a lineup. Maybe it is because they aren’t used to working fast paced in a drive thru environment. But still!
I miss my timmies. But sadly this location is the closest to my home. That being said, the staff is usually very nice.

This place is busy ALL THE TIME, it being right beside/​attached to the mall and cheap coffee, this tim hortons has a lot of traffic. With a lot of people coming in and out of this area, it’s gets loud inside and also leads to longer lines. The staff is pretty quick to serve.

another late night saviour. i literally get an ice cap from here everyday in the summer. usually packed during the day when the mall is open but service is good and food superb. they could improve on the washroom deal though

I had a cup of coffee in a mug and the first mug they gave was dirty. The server said it was «clean» but I asked for another cup which she easily complied. The staff are Tim H. are always nice which is a plus.

Finally settling for a cheap coffee I ended up in here with my dad’s friends. It’s a Tim Horton’s attached to a mall, on the No. 3 Road side, so no worries if your late at night needing a cheap ‘Timmy-Ho’s’ and your closer to this location than the one on Bridgeport, well this is the place for you. Not needing the mall wi-​fi, this place has it’s own, which also means you will have many loiterer’s around, whether they are student’s or just people with digital devices needing a place to sit around and watch things on their iPad/​tablet/​laptop/​phone they are here!
This is a long spot, and it stretchs, plenty of sitting, especially if not many people are in here and you need to, ahem, move your butt far away as some people are talking too loud. I can’t really say anything went wrong, I had a coffee, black, no sugar, no cream, and have come here other times in the middle of the night for others to pick up something. They seem to have enough people working there, as I barely waited in line at around 6 last time, and they seem to understand crowd control.
Just like all Tim’s, your getting coffee, donuts, sandwich’s, soups, it maybe not the best your getting, but if you got a love for Tim’s stuff, just like most of their locations… ²⁴⁄₇. Also some good parking in this lot here, anytime you need something on the cheaper end, your set!

This was our first stop in Vancouver and our last stop in Vancouver!
Tim Horton’s easily kicks Dunkin Donuts’ and maybe even Krispy Kreme’s ass any day. I love that they have an Extra Small size on the menu in case you don’t feel like getting a «normal sized» drink. They have soups, sandwiches, soups, doughnuts, and other sweets on their menu. The donuts and cookies tasted fresh, way better than any donut chain in New Jersey. Free wifi is also a good thing.
I already miss this place!

donuts. need i say more?
coffee. need i say more?
sandwiches and soups. need i say more?
iced capp. need i say more?
cheap prices. need i say more?
i love timmy’s.

Timmy Ho’s, you have FAILED ME.
I know, I know, eating at Tims is not a 5 star experience, hell it doesn’t even warrant a star. But after seeing a blood red coloured oily sludge on the surface of my chili, which didn’t even dissipate after stirring it with a spoon… I refuse to eat chili from Tims ever again!
I won’t be missing much, I think I will be okay.

This location is one of the busiest in the lower mainland. It is quite apparent that people are willing to wait it out in order to get their dose of caffeine, so be prepared to wait during their peak hours (any time between 9 – 10 am). Their coffee is not bad, but not great, and their goodies (donuts and muffins) are good and fresh. With regards to their washroom facility, it would be much convenient if they were not the size of a broom closet.

Probably one of the busier Tims in the vancouver area. However, dont let the line scare you, they are very efficient here. A 10 person line often only takes 5 mins.
Finding a table is an entirely different story though. If youre looking for a nice and quiet place to just grab a drink with some friends, this isnt it. The dining area always full during regular hours.
TIP: head into the mall, about 20 metres, theres a nice seating area in front of the apple store, lots of seats, free applestore wifi.

This location was pretty full for a Sunday evening, but as it was literally the only coffee place in the area (where’s Starbucks when you need them?), this isn’t too surprising.
Parking is ample in the mall, as long as it’s not the weekend.
Maybe the others had a bad experience, but they got my coffee right. So I can’t comment on that.
I really like how this location has a dedicated line-​up area. Normally people just pile into the counters.

nope, yesterday they screwed up too badly. They had over 9 people in line with only 3 people working — cause who would have thought that saturday morning would have been a busy time for coffee. None of the employees were moving with any sort of urgency. Luckily I was very early for work and had time to spare. Unfortunately after waiting 15 minutes, they still messed up my coffee order. I am just too fed up with them so I think i’m going to try alternatives for a while… which is a shame cause there is really minimal food/​coffee options in the mall right now while they are renovating the foodcourt

This Tim Horton’s is frequently packed and there’s usually a wait for people to finish eating before you get a seat. But if you’re looking for just a drink and snack, then the line-​up for that is generally quick and painless.
If you do want to sit down to enjoy your drink, head towards the mall and in a short 1 minute walk, there’s plenty of mall seating. Also, there’s an Apple store in that area so enjoy some of their free Wi-​fi as you sip on your steeped tea and munch on your tim-​bits.

I’ve never saw a Tim Horton that can screw up my order again and again and again and again. Save your change and go to the Bridgeport location.
