Tim Hortons’ first dark kitchen to launch in London

The Canadian brand said this after opening its drive-thru resto in London.

Canadian coffee chain, Tim Hortons, announced that it will open its first dark kitchen in London to address demand in the capital.

Its delivery-only kitchen, located in Kentish Town, will allow those near the kitchen to access quality products through platforms such as UberEats, Just Eat and Deliveroo.

The brand also opened its first drive-thru restaurant in London, which saw its successful opening day in the UK.

“With its continued focus on trading across all dayparts, the format will concentrate on providing a quality delivery service, from 9am to 10:30pm and in partnership with commercial kitchen, Foodstars,” read the press release.

Kevin Hydes, Chief Commercial Officer of Tim Hortons franchise in the UK, said “Opening our first site in London was a huge milestone for Tim Hortons, as we entered a brand-new territory, but to our delight, the opening was a huge success and demand in Park Royal is still phenomenal. This highlighted the demand for our offering within the Capital, with North London being an area of interest. This dark kitchen delivery format allows us to trial a new concept, focusing on a fast delivery service throughout the day and we are excited by the potential it offers.”
