Tips:
- This place isn't great at updating items that are available on the Tim Hortons app.
- Customer service is stellar to make up for not updating items on the Timmy's app.
- This location has a drive-thru.
After having an early dinner at Denny's after work on Wednesday, I wanted to check out this Timmy's that was in the same plaza. It's a part of a Tim Hortons - Wendy's combo store, which looked massive.
There's a drive-thru for both establishments. It is closer to highway 7 than Denny's.
Still parked in front of Denny's, I placed an order for these items:
- Cadbury mini eggs dream donut
- Medium raspberry mojito zero-sugar sparkling quencher
I thought the former item being listed on the menu was weird. It screamed Easter to me, but I like pushing boundaries at Timmy's. Is this dream donut supposed to be on the menu or was it an oversight?
I paid for my goodies through the app with my Tims gift card. I then drove over to the drive-thru.
I got a pleasant woman on the other end of the speaker. She found my order and said that I could drive up to the pick-up window.
When I got the window, the woman said that the store didn't have any dream donuts. As expected, staff weren't great with updating the app to reflect that donuts they had.
I asked what was comparable. She asked if I wanted Timbits. I asked if I could get ten. She talked to her peers and they said yes.
I have said in the past that I'm not great with Tims pricing. It's still true, although I am improving.
The FIFA Timbits go for fifty cents for one. A dream donut is $2.49. I could have got five FIFA Timbits. Instead, I got ten regular Timbits. A box of ten assorted Timbits goes for $3.49. I essentially got more bang for what I had originally ordered. Go, me!
I got my drink, followed by the cutest FIFA-branded Timbits on the box. I thanked the woman and headed home.
I love the raspberry mojito drink these days. It's fizzy, and the raspberry-lime combo is lovely. It was delightful.
I had the Timbits when I was at home, consuming them while watching the Marlies game. I loved this assorted box. I got a couple of Timbits with lemon filling. OMG! Where have I been? I'd get a box just with this flavour alone!
Although it didn't have the dream donut, I was not mad with the substitution. I'd return when I'm in the area and need my Timbit and drink fixes.
