Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons expanding to Middle Tennessee

Plans are in the works for two Tim Hortons in Mt. Juliet — but the Volunteer State could be getting 40+ more locations in the years to come.

Middle Tennessee is set to become another home for Canada’s largest fast food chain.

Two Tim Hortons locations are in the works for Mt. Juliet — 10576 Lebanon Rd. and 5120 Beckwith Rd. Although no timeline was announced, locals can look forward to specialty coffee drinks, baked goods, and breakfast sandwiches.

If this news has you planning a future trip to Mt. Juliet, good news: This is just the start of Tim Hortons’ expansion into the region and beyond. Local business owner Naren Patel said the goal is to eventually open ~45 locations across the state and is eyeing future sites in Nashville, Gallatin, Lebanon, and Spring Hill.

Now that we have the attention of Tim Hortons and other chains like In-N-Out, Wawa, and Torchy’s Tacos, what is still missing in Nashville? Let us know via this survey.
