22 Best Coffee Shops near Lake View

“The Timmy's That Tops Them All!Ah, Tim Horton's—Canada's culinary beacon, a place where doughnuts and coffee reign supreme, and where I, a seasoned connoisseur of the fast-food fine arts, find myself almost religiously after the daily school drop-off ritual with my boys. Now, I've reviewed more Timmy's than I have fingers and toes (which is less than most), but this particular spot? It's the sprinkle on my doughnut, the cream in my coffee, the MVP of my morning routine!Let's set the scene: It’s a typical bustling morning, and here I am, steering my brood into our local Tim Horton's, which I swear must be run by caffeine-fueled wizards or, at the very least, the most organized band of baristas this side of the Niagara Falls. I’ve been coming here long enough that I'm half-expecting a plaque with my name—or at least a dedicated parking spot. But no such luck yet!This specific Timmy's isn't just a stop on the map; it's a beacon of consistency in the unpredictable odyssey of life. Many a time, I've witnessed the tragic comedy of misheard orders at other establishments, where "I said a double-double, not a trouble-trouble!" echoes through the establishment. But not here, oh no. Here, they get it right. Every. Single. Time. It’s like they’ve got some sort of doughnut divination skills.Over the years, I've sampled an impressive array of Timbit varieties, sipped every seasonal beverage (even the ones that made me question the nature of pumpkin spice), and I’ve become something of a local sandwich savant. And yet, despite the culinary roulette I play with each order, my local Timmy’s has maintained an unwavering record of precision. It's as if they've tapped into my very soul, reading my order before it's even whispered at the drive-thru.So, how do they fare on the "Zack's Best of Timmy's" leaderboard? Let’s just say, if I were handing out Timmy’s Trophies, these guys would be lugging home the grand prize. They’ve become such a staple of our daily lives that my boys might start thinking their middle names should’ve been Timbit, Double-Double, and Iced Capp.And let's have a little chuckle at the fact that despite the infinite complexities of my life—as a purveyor of fine advertising, a wrangler of three future gentlemen, and a partner to my better half—my day often hinges on the success of this pivotal morning transaction. It's a good thing then that this Tim Horton's has set the bar, and it's not just over a steaming cup of Joe, it's soaring high above it, with flying colors and a side of honey cruller.In conclusion, this Timmy's isn't just a pit stop—it's a part of the family. A deliciously reliable, heartwarmingly efficient part of our daily escapade. To the team that’s making the magic happen, keep up the extraordinary work. And just so you know, you've officially ruined me for all other Timmy's. How will I ever go back to mere mortal coffee shops after this?“

“Wow I had such a chill time here today! Tons of parking , a lot of seating. A mix of families with kids getting breakfast and groups of friends grabbing a bite. The music selection was relaxing too. Got a vanilla latte and a Cruller . Latte was good, really smooth and well made. They use good beans because it wasn’t harsh or burnt tasting at all.The Cruller was expectedly delicious and the texture was so surprising!“

“First visit today and it was delicious! I had the BOLT (bacon, onion, lettuce, tomato) sandwich on sourdough. The side salad was lightly tossed in the most amazing balsamic I’ve ever had. My Americano with the cashew coconut milk was also very good. I felt that pricing was very reasonable. I’ll be back!“

“Very good bubble tea! It was my first time going here and I loved it. I didn't take a picture, but next time I will. The girl at the front was very helpful, because I wasn't sure what to get. She was patient and nice. The bubble tea was so good and tasty. I got the vanilla milk tea with the tapioca bubbles!“

“The crew there are always working hard , they are very sociable and polite. Everytime I go there the order is correct, the drinks are always made amazingly, there's even a couple guys there that know my order so well they already have it brewing...lol...The one problem I have is a manager that works there, he on a few occasions now has berated his crew , yelling at them or getting aggravated with them in front of customers, that's not professional nor is it a proper way to treat your employees...“

“I like the coffee, I don’t like being charged different price when I come in. The guys that work the weekends are charging customers different prices!!! No more!“

“I only go to this location there’s 2 others within the same distance of my home, but this only always goes above and beyond. They’re sweet respectful and very efficient. I love the one girl I always see in the morning Jenna she’s always in such a great mood and so kind! Today I went forgot my wallet was trying to use Apple Pay and it wasn’t working, of course. So I showed the girl at the window told her I’d have to come back and she was so kind about it she let me have my coffee and it truly was so nice I didn’t want to go home take my baby inside get my wallet and go back, so helpful she truly made my morning. Thank you Kelsey!“
