Tim Hortons – A Canadian Tradition, One Cup at a Time

Since 1964, Tim Hortons® has been more than just a coffee shop—it’s been a part of daily life in Canada. From our very first restaurant in Hamilton, Ontario, to locations across the country, we’ve been bringing people together over our Original Blend coffee, classic Double-Double, fresh donuts, and beloved Timbits.

Canada’s Coffee, Every Day

Today, Tim Hortons is proud to be Canada’s largest restaurant chain, serving over 5 million cups of coffee every day. With 80% of Canadians visiting a Tims at least once a month, we are more than a café—we’re a symbol of connection, comfort, and community.

Rooted in Community, Committed to Giving Back

Tim Hortons is built on local ownership—with over 1,500 franchisees living and working in the same communities they serve. These local entrepreneurs employ more than 100,000 Canadians, helping fuel the economy and create lasting relationships.

Giving back is at the heart of what we do. Every year, Tim Hortons contributes over $60 million to community programs across Canada. From Timbits Sports to Tim Hortons Foundation Camps, we’re dedicated to supporting young Canadians—helping them grow, learn, and thrive.

More Than Coffee – A Canadian Experience

Tim Hortons isn’t just a stop on your way—it’s a shared tradition. Whether it’s grabbing a morning coffee, sharing a box of Timbits with friends, or supporting local initiatives, Tims is where Canada comes together.
