    Iconic Canadian coffee brand Tim Hortons opens in Bengaluru!

    Mumbai: Tim Hortons, the iconic Canadian coffee chain, is set to make its mark in Bengaluru. As Karnataka, the capital of India’s coffee culture, proudly produces over 70 per cent of the nation’s coffee, it is only fitting that Tim Hortons chooses this booming landscape to unveil its latest coffee haven.

    The grand openings are in Terminal 2, Kempegowda International Airport and in the vibrant neighbourhood of Koramangala. This marks a significant stride in Tim Hortons’ expansion strategy as it brings its signature beverages and delectable products to the southern part of India.

    Starting 15 September, guests will be able to enjoy Tim Hortons’ signature 100 per cent premium arabica coffee and taste iconic beverages like the creamy and rich French Vanilla, the Java Chipp Iced Capp, a blended frozen coffee beverage, along with prepared-to-order food and baked goods including delicious bite-sized morsels of traditional doughnuts called Timbits.

    As part of its commitment to embrace local tastes and preferences, Tim Hortons is also introducing two delectable local specialities to its menu: the Ghee Roast Paneer Pocket and the Pepper Chicken Pocket. These products celebrate the flavourful heritage of the Southern region of India and complement Tim Hortons’ existing food menu, which features favourites like the Five Cheese Melt, Bagels, Piadinas, and much more.

    The Kempegowda store represents Tim Hortons’ innovative approach, boasting unique Canada- inspired décor elements and has introduced a range of speciality brewing methods to enhance the guest experience and provide them with new and unique ways to experience Tim Hortons’ signature coffee roasts

    The store’s inviting ambience and friendly staff will provide a welcoming atmosphere where guests can relax, work, or catch up with friends while savouring their favourite Tim Hortons treats.

    Tim Hortons India CEO Tarun Jain added to the excitement: “The expansion of Tim Hortons into Bengaluru is a momentous occasion for us. After the success of the brand in Delhi, Punjab and Mumbai, we’re excited to bring the same experience to this vibrant city while also paying tribute to the local culinary traditions. This marks a significant step in our journey, and we look forward to becoming a part of the Bengaluru community.”

    ”As we advance our expansion in India, we look forward to giving more coffee lovers the opportunity to sample our Tim Hortons signature beverages and delicious food across the country”, said EMEA president of restaurant brands international Thiago Santelmo.
