TIM HORTONS IN ENGLAND!!!

Postby angelniki » Wed Sep 21, 2005 7:10 am

ok i know that we're always obsessing on here about timmy's, so i'm shocked that i didn't know about this already, but apparently there are a few tim hortons shops in england! now don't get too excited, i think that they only have donuts (no coffee) and that the prices are insane, but worth it for a little taste of home, here's the locations!

-Road Chef, Clackett Lane, M25, UK
-The Queen Medical Centre Hospital, Nottingham, England
-Metro Centre, Newcastle Upon Tyne


let me know if you go there and how it is!

Hey, what a dismal collection of locations! You'd have to be desperate to make a special trip for a Timmy fix!

not to sound negative or anything, but I believe their commercials have programmed you...It's not even a Canadian company anymore. How is the place so popular, when there is only 1 blend of coffee??

Anyways, good luck with your quest.

I've heard the Newcastle location only serves donuts and not any coffe. I am not sure about the other locations.

Even if it is owned by Wendy's it is a part of Canadiana that just won't die. Vive le Timmy Hos!!

The Canada shop in Covent garden has started selling Timmy Ho's coffee by the canister if you have a coffee maker in your flat as well. :)

Tims at LHR

There is also a new Tim's (again, donughts only- no coffee) in Waterside, which is the corporate headquarters for British Airways, in Harmondsworth, Middlesex. Totally weird. Problem- you need to be an employee of British Airways to get in the building. I am, I did...and when I saw the Timmy's there, I nearly shat my pants in excitement. Walked away with a 10-box of Timbits, and nearly cried. Very embarrassing, I know.

Dont laugh about getting a fix. After we moved from Toronto to Vancouver Island we used to drive from north of Nanaimo to Victoria to have Harveys burgers on the weekend.

I'm from Newfie, (yeh i no all the jokes!!lol) and well when i go home i hav to get timmy's, it basically sums up home i guess. BUT it made my day last week wen i found a tim's right round the corner from me in gillingham kent. I stepped inside, got my self a box of tim bits (which taste exactly the same as the 1's bac home, tno not as fresh sorry to say!, an i had a little tear in my eye, it reminds me so much of home!
I hope they start selling coffe soon, so i cna ask for my first 'double double' in the UK!
