The coffee shop will be located in the Peopleѻýs Square in central Shanghai and joins 4,800 others in the United States, Mexico, Europe, the Philippines, the Middle East and of course, Canada.
ѻýWeѻýre excited to bring the iconic Tim Hortons brand and a piece of Canada around the globe,ѻý, said Tim Hortons president Alex Macedo. ѻýChina is an attractive growth market and we canѻýt wait for guests to try our classic favourites and some new offerings crafted specifically to the Chinese market.ѻý

- Steeped Black Lemon Peach Oolong and Blueberry Roselle
- a Salted Egg Yolk Timbit
- a Matcha latte
- Basil Chicken and Coldwater Shrimp sandwiches
