Tim Hortons
reviews and complaints

Store # 2770 west lethbridge ab. I am a regular customer of this store, however, the service at the counter has deteriorated to the point where customers are tired of waiting and walk out without being served. Tables are not cleaned in a timely manner and I had to ask for one to be cleaned before sitting down. Seems to be an adequate amount of staff working except at the ordering counter. Limited choices for product as they seem to be continually short or out all together. Some staff members appear to be unable or not trained properly to prepare orders, ie. Toasted cheese sandwhich. Sometimes the cheese isn't even melted, not cut and burned around the edges.

Ladies Washroom.
Toilet paper all over the floor. Some with poop. The door handle leaving washroom dirty.
The floor in the restaurant dirty and very sticky. My shoes were sticking to the floor. There were black smear marks from a mop everywhere. The sign for caution, wet floor up.

My strawberry smoothie was disappointing. It was not drinkable. Strawberry flavoured water.

Absolutely disgusting !

Was at tim hortons at Masonville mall in London Ontario Friday June 8. I placed my order for a small coffee and was told to wait in line for for it. 7 people on a small counter and I waited at the counter for my coffee. 5 people were served their food when I asked about my order. I was standing at the counter when I had to step aside for other customers to be served. No body questioned why I hadn't been served even though I was making eye contact with 3 of the workers and they weren't busy, they were looking me in the eye. Service like that tells me you don't want my service and when I take my family out we will not be going for coffee and donuts at tim hortons, that's for sure. What happened to your service, it used to be decent but now it's unacceptable. Your employees actions at this store go against your mission statement, "quality leader in everything you do"? Definitely not in service and it doesn't matter how good your product is if your service stops the customer from coming in. This Masonville store sure did damage last night because McDonald's makes a good coffee also with better service.

I started working for this employer May 21.

At the interview Dawn the manager told me that I was being hired for midnights, she also told me that we share tips in the store. I expressly advised Dawn that as a disabled person who doesn't drive, that I could only work either midnights or afternoons as I rely on buses and I can't get a bus for a 6am or 7am start time.

After I was hired I was told by Dawn that I was being hired for midnights. Both these things turned out to be a lie.
She only had me working day shifts, starting at 7am. I have never gotten my fare share of tips. I got nada, zippo! This was in addition to the nasty behavior of my coworkers Shayna, Bonnie and Hudson.
Bonnie during my first shift by myself She was giving me a hard time about the ice coffee bucket needing to be filled. Instead of asking me nicely to do it, she comes up to me and sarcastically says " usually the person on this side of the counter fills the coffee bucket." According to her I was on had to be solely responsible for filling the ice coffee bucket. Yet I was busy on counter.
Shayna thought it was hilarious to keep deliberately blocking my path and doing these ridiculous jirating dances, and going back and forth across the small walking space so you could'nt get by her. The other people on drive thru thought it was hilarious. When Shayna wasn't dping this, she was bad mouthing you to the other people on drive thru, calling people stupid, idiots etc.

After speaking with Dawn and the general manager Melissa about the issues and getting no help whatsoever.

Went to the owner Mary about the issues on June 6.
All she did was get angry that I had contacted her about it. She told me " I don't appreciate being called about this".
According to Mary you have to be on day shift for a month before going to midnight shift because no one could possibly be fully trained after only 1 week.. Yet my trainer Joel has taught me drive thru, counter etc and he and I were doing drive thru by ourselves quite capably. yet I was still on day shifts.
I explained that . I rely on buses so early morning start times are really hard for me.Every time I have to come in for a 7am start its incredibly challenging as I rely on buses so I end up taking a cab into work. I live on Bridge st over by Martindale Rd.
I don't appreciate being lied to about what shift you were hiring for. I'd like to be put on the shift I agreed too

Supervisor told James to be on counter with me but he chose to go on drive thru. So Hudson was on counter with me. Hudson kept slumping over the till doing exasperated sighs " I'm so tired".
He was no help at all.

The Female baker that day kept giving me a hard time any time I needed dark roast coffee for a customer. According to her I was only allowed to use the carafe on front counter.

According to Joel we normally get an average of $9-$10 a day in tips.

The tip cups were full every day that I worked yet I still got cheated.

I went to redeem my free beverage today and ordered my usual London fog . When it came to redeem she told me it doesn't apply to this drink and charged me. Then my free beverage was lost and it brought me back to one beverage reward out of 7.
I want my free reward back and I don't understand how that location won't redeem London fog when the other location I go too does

Hi
I picked up doughnuts from your outlet. I saw flies in the closed display sitting on the dougnut and complained to the attendant. She conveniently told me its just a fly, charged my card and handed me my doughnuts from the same place. I had to take a picture to complain about this and she also questioned me why I took a picture. Please find attached. It was disgusting. Your standards are very poor. I doubt going back to Tim Hortons again!

This is the 2nd time I've complained about this store. It is not representing your franchise well at all. Literally every other time I come here they are out of something. Today and the last time I came they were out of waffles. Then they didnt have ice in and off for a couple of months. Etc etc etc. I'm tired of my time being wasted and if I were tou I would be mad that the franchise is being represented with such carelessness, especially for customer service. This is in regards to your store in Buffalo on Seneca street near Bailey Ave across from Lenco Lumber. I would appreciate a response. I can be reached at [protected] or [protected]@gmail.com

Thank you,

TIMS you can do better... I bought a coffee maker from you and it is always over flowing and keeps spilling the grinds in the coffee. We went to exchange it we were told we needed to contact Tim Canada and send it back at our COST! it is not even a month old. The Tims in Claresholm basically said NOT THEIR PROBLEM! I have called and email you guys with no response.

I was shocked and deeply disappointed by the last package of coffee pods I purchased when I realized they changed the packaging and ability to recycle the pods. One of the reasons I switched from Starbucks coffee was the same pods you have now switched to. The previous pod style you used were extremely easy to pull apart for recycling and are now almost impossible and extremely messy. I can't believe you wouldn't have a test dept to thoroughly examine this. I am sending this picture because I think it says it all...
I'm afraid I will be switching...

So what idiot figures trying to suck your drinks through paper is a good idea ? You eliminate plastic straws and replace with paper that do not last 5 min in liquid so I can not drink my Ice Cap . So some [censored] thinks they are saving Turtles who snort 8" of straw up their nose, yet we are still given plastic cups and lids to dispose of. No thinking involved there was there ? WE do not have sea turtles first of all and if you think that one video is true better think again, how in hell is it possible for any earth creature to snort a straw, (fake video), and you believe the hype that you are saving the planet cause you stop the use of straws, such stupidity. So now you can glass, steel or plastic line your straws to make them usable

Keep getting coffee that lids smell perfume in many of locations
Would like for staff to wash there hands .
This as been a problem for many years now . I am asking you to have this stop or I will get the healt department involved if it continues.
I am in construction and pick up coffee for my men 3 times per day and all my guy complain about it
Thank you

When I order chilli from the window service it comes with butter. They always put the butter in with the chilli and despite my asking that this not be done it continues to happen.
My issue with this is that the butter melts and leaks into the bag getting grease all over and on my car upholstery.

I am extremely upset over this as it stains.

I would like to inform you that I love tim Hortons coffee and and occasional doughnut. But recently Everytime I go I to this Tim Hortons locations at 608 Emily Drive Clarksburg, WV.26301 the doughnut case is disgusting, has ants in it, crawling in the doughnuts. At the self serve station. there is never any coffee made it it is old and taste nasty. I have spoken to the store manager Stacy about it also to the other workers and no one cares. I have also spoken to the BFS employees who are on the other side of the store. nothing is being done about it. The fact is you are losing business because Stacy the store manager says she don't care. And in top of that half the time it isn't even open due to they don't show up on time to do there job. Knowing most of us loyal customers come here everyday between 6-8 am. And there is never anything fresh made the only options left over from the previous day.

It was 7:30 am & I drove to the Tim Hortons in Sutton Ontario anticipating my usual bacon, egg and cheese on an English muffin.
When I ordered at the drive through I was told there was no bacon- ok so I went with sausage. When I actually got to the window to pick up my order I was told there was no bacon OR egg. So now my bacon, egg and cheese could be a double sausage. Yuch!
This is not the first time I've had problems at this location but it is a major problem for Tim Hortons. Running out of bacon and eggs at 7:30 am?
I have also had bad luck with your customer service department not taking complaints seriously so I doubt anyone will see this. In order to confirm that you have received this complaint & let me know what is being done you can contact me at [protected]@shawpercussion.com

I don't understand why you only allow one reward point per total purchase.
Everyone that buys one item gets a point.
E.g. today I bought 5 coffees, got one point
Why don't you support those of us that buy multiple products.
Even if you gave 2 for purchases of 2 or more.
It seems like it devalues the concept to 15 - 20 purchases to get a free.

Seems unfair, not like the competition.

I guess it may be good because people will just give up on it.

Disapointed

I would like to remain anonymous. Regarding store number 0133, 3370 & 3013

This owner needs to be looked into. I worked there for nearly 2 years and the turn around is just horrible. The owners are rude and disrespectful to employees in front of other employees and customers. In 1 year over 100 employees quit over the 3 restaurants, if not more. They treat people like [censored] and lie. They promised me a pay increase but instead just used me for 2 months to handle the manager position for 13$/h what a joke.
Someone once passed a fake USD 20$ and he made me pay for it. Unbelievable that they treat their staff so poorly. I have no idea how this guy was given keys to run this business. They receive so many complaints and nothing is ever done. I cant believe it.

We just had soup at Tim Horton's. The prices were coming up higher at the till than what was advertised on the displays. I mentioned it to the clerk who got the manager to come. "Prices went up" she said, "but we just haven't changed the screen yet". She agreed it was wrong to do that, but just walked away and required us to pay the higher price. There were some policemen that came in after me.. I should've filed something with them since we do have laws against that I thought. Maybe I shouldn't complain about just a 20 cent difference, but if it is just 20 cents... why didn't the snobby manager just refund the 20 pennies?
