DESCRIPTION

Tim Hortons is one of North America's most recognized restaurant brands, known for great coffee, freshly prepared donuts, baked goods, and food that keeps guests coming back.

Now, we're bringing that tradition to the Kansas City area-and building a team that takes pride in the quality of everything we serve.
