27 Best Coffee Shops near Thornton

“I stopped at this location on a busy Saturday morning on my way to Blue Mountain, and the drive‑thru team was incredible. Even with the rush, they were kind, upbeat, and genuinely respectful. The customer service was honestly above and beyond. It’s rare to see a team keep that level of positivity during peak hours, but they absolutely did. Made my morning.“

“Bagels have the perfect chew. The lemon dill cream cheese is like a cloud. A lox and mimosa breakfast?? How could it be better?“

“Popped in this past Friday after seeing a review and we were not disappointed! The veal parmigiana is amazing! 2 pieces of veal alongside penne cooked just perfect and the sauce? Like I remember it as a child 🍝 This little gem is amazing must try! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Very nice place and great food“

“Food was great, although serve was very slow and at times non-existent though I guess they must be short staffed. ordered $17 waffles only to see no whip cream and after hounding down a waiter was told there was none. I mean, if that's the case, fine. But don't just walk away and hope we dont notice. let us know. offer a discount or add extra fruit aside from the 2 strawberry and 5 blueberries. like do anything!“

“Best coffee place I know. They have beans, grind, and k-cups, as well as teas. Plus local goodies. Best kept secret around! It’s my favourite place and coffee!“

“Best pie around. They are the best.“

“Thank you Tim Hortons Barrie for having lactose free milk!!! Not sure why this isn’t a thing at all Hortons now but WTG!!“

“I had such a great experience at Tim Hortons in Barrie thanks to Carol. You can tell right away when someone actually cares about their job, and Carol is one of those people. She greeted me with a warm smile, was super patient, and made sure everything in my order was perfect. The service was fast, friendly, and honestly made my whole morning better.

It’s rare to see someone bring that much positive energy to their work, especially during busy hours, but Carol handled everything like a pro. My coffee was made exactly right and the food was fresh and delicious.

People like Carol are the reason customers keep coming back. Tim Hortons is lucky to have someone like her representing them. If you stop by this location, I really hope you get served by Carol — she’s amazing.“

“Great staff, love the gingerbread latte“

“I think this may be my first time ever leaving a review for a Tim Hortons, or fast food establishment. But I just had an absolutely amazing experience at this location so I simply had to. I was served by the absolute gem of a barista - Angel. His customer service skills were definitely 11/10! He surpassed my expectations and created a sort of pattern interrupt for the usual lack lustre coffee shop customer service I am used to receiving. He was super friendly, smiley and super easy to talk to. He was training a new employee at the time of my visit and had such a bubbly and cheery presence to him. He was very patient as he explained how to redeem a donut prize that I won through the app from the previous Roll Up season to his new colleague. He still ensured all of my questions were answered and gave out standing customer service. He even congratulated me on my win - such a nice touch. He was lovely and should be considered a strong asset to your team. I am new to the area but would definitely choose this location above any other because of how genuine and sincere he is! Thanks for the great experience Angel!“

“I stopped by Tim Hortons in Alliston on a lovely afternoon, and it was fantastic! The coffee was perfectly brewed, and the muffin I had was fresh and delicious. The staff were friendly and quick, making my visit enjoyable. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a great spot to relax. I’ll definitely return!“

“Thank you to the team at the Barrie mall for your service, you are always so quick and easy to order from :) Store is always clean too. The food and coffee are great and I love coming here.

“Just had to leave a review because I come here everyday and the ladies are just so unbelievably kind… seriously!! You guys are the best starbucks here in barrie, the starbucks by the mall should come here for a crash course on how to treat the customers. Just so kind and so polite anytime I interact. Thank you“

“Best service ever ! Even better than Starbucks. They get ur food really fast and in a such nice manner . Highly recommended. I usually do the drive through but even when I have a chance I get into to get my coffee and is the same vibe. Really nice people .“

“This Tim Hortons location never disappoints. The coffee is always consistently good, and the service is genuinely kind. This morning, I received my coffee with a little handwritten note on the lid saying “Have a good day” such a small gesture, but it honestly made my day.
It’s details like this that set this location apart. Friendly staff, great coffee, and thoughtful service every single time.“

“This place is amazing!! I've never been before, and the guy not only helped me pick an awesome drink that I loved, but suggested another fun way to order it in the future (chai latte with soya milk and cinnamon) will absolutely be back. Great energy, give this man a raise for crying out loud 👏 🙌“

They were nicely prepared in a box and nice and big! I really enjoyed them! I will definitely be back very soon for more! Thank you so much! They were so delicious 😁“

“Service was great, I think her name was Hayley or something

She served me my coffee right away, with a smile and made sure to write on my cup.

The next day I came in, and manager SUN
Was yelling at an employee in the back, I heard it from the front. These little girls work so hard, and as a business owner myself, I wouldn't hire anyone who feels superior to an employee, yells at, and abuses. Great service from the baristas

But that manager needs correction ASAP“
