Tim Hortons

Tim Horton’s is probably a first stop for any American entering Canadian soil.
Not gonna lie, I’m usually pretty boring… I go straight for the black coffee. But man, the black coffee from horton’s always is the smoothest, I just can’t get enough of it.
Pastries I got this time: Nutella filled donut. All I’m gonna say is… oh my God.

this Timmy’s location just got revamped! It looks so modern. Perfect place for a quick meeting, catching up with friends. or even studying! Enjoy!

always amazed how busy it is here even late at night; in vancouver, i expect it with more ppl, always hard to find a spot.
Do like how they seem to be more generous w/​the toppings. I carefully watch them make my Coffee Lovers, and just before they put the lid on, ask for extra caramel ;)
free parking here.
but do come early, the ice cream side seems to be closed earlier.

You can’t complain much when this Tim Hortons/​Coldstone is open for 24 hours… but service is inconsistent here, so please beware.
We came here around midnight where an idiotic older lady helped with our order. Wanted a simple milkshake and she said she could do that with confidence. She proceeded to put ONLY vanilla iec (yes i was watching) in a blender, didn’t turn on the blender, AND served it in a cup. So I thought…“this is not a milkshake” as I couldn’t even get the «milkshake» through the straw. So the conversation with the lady went like this:
Um, this doesn’t look like a milkshake and it is not.
Oh, it’s just a really hard milkshake! It’s like that!
No it isnt! Did you even put milk or anything in it? Do you know how to make a milkshake? Isn’t there some kind of recipe on how to make one?
No, that’s just the way a milkshake is. It’s like that. (I don’t think she has ever tried a milkshake in her life. sad :()
Omg…no, i can’t have this.
I can make something else if you want.
At this point I’m just over it. I could not comprehend… Anyway She could’ve just told us that she wasn’t properly trained… anyway I went home with the vanilla ice cream in the cup and made my own milkshake in the kitchen. lol
Came back on another day and asked someone on a different shift if she can make one. «I can’t, I haven’t been properly trained» At least she was honest :) Thankfully there was another lady who was able to make one right. and turned out pretty good!

OK, this is a protest review.
If a Tim Hortons anywhere is a 5 then Unilocal’s scale is seriously broken. Please, people… they don’t even bake their stuff on site. It’s trucked in frozen from Toronto.
Have you ever been to a real bakery?
At best, Timmy’s is a 2… although I have seen someone on Unilocal give Mickey D’s a 5. Simply unbelievable. There should be a special category for reviewers that have never eaten real food.
Maybe with a Coldstone TH could make it to a 3 but I really doubt it. If you want some real ice cream, go find a good gelato place.
Fast food is a chemical imitation of the real thing. Please try some of the authentic stuff… it does exist out there. But you won’t find it in a place where you have to use your teeth to roll up the rim of a paper coffee cup to win a prize.

Mmmm I grew up in Seattle and cold stone was my fav place to get ice cream and I was pretty sceptical seeing how they have moved here cause I was thinking FAIL but to my surprise WOW there just as good! No difference at all! I will soon be a regular there as I love my cheese cake with reeses pieces in a love it cup :)

It’s open 24 hrs and right next to Mirage nightclub so you get alot of the post-​club crowd after midnight. As it’s the only spot open late and it’s located in the heart of Guildford, it’s pretty much the place to be post-​anything. A large seating area plus the new addition of Coldstone Creamery and it’s close proximity to Pearl Fever and McDonald’s make it the ideal spot for idle nights.

As of a month ago, this is a Tim Horton’s /​Coldstone Creamery!
Five stars for bringing Coldstone to Canada!
