Tim Hortons, the renowned Canadian coffee brand with nearly six decades of history, has expanded its operations in Mumbai, with the launch of two new outlets.

The newly established coffee shops are situated in the bustling city hotspots of Bandra West, Linking Road, and Andheri, Lokhandwala. The Bandra West location opens today at Supreme Headquarters, Off Linking Road, and the Andheri Lokhandwala branch is set to welcome customers from tomorrow at Samarth Siddhi Apartments.

Coffee enthusiasts can enjoy Tim Hortons’ 100% premium Arabica coffee, its iconic beverages like the French Vanilla and signature Iced Capp™ blended frozen coffee.




Accompanying these beverages are freshly prepared food and baked goods, including popular bite-sized morsels called Timbits, and hand-decorated donuts. The menu also features locally inspired snacks, such as the Baida Roti Cigar Rolls and Pinwheel Samosas, and an interior design that marries Canadian and Mumbaikar aesthetics.

“We’re thrilled to expand our brand footprint in Mumbai. After a resounding customer response in the North, we intend to create the same love & warmth for our guests here,” said Tarun Jain, CEO of Tim Hortons franchise in India.

Echoing his sentiment, David Shear, President – International, Restaurant Brands International, expressed his excitement at bringing the brand’s premium offerings into new Indian regions.

Diedrah Kelly, Consul General of Canada in Mumbai, also chimed in, expressing anticipation for the launch and the strengthening of business ties between Canada and India.
