Hot off the opening of their city centre store on Market Street, Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons is opening a new Manchester store later this year.
Due to ‘popular demand’ from shoppers, the chain will be opening one of their biggest restaurants yet at Trafford Park - complete with drive-thru. The announcement follows the opening of its first venue within the city centre at the end of May – and will be its eighth within Greater Manchester. Local fans will be able to get their hands on its famed coffee, delicious donuts and signature Timbits in the Western part of the city when they open at Barton Dock Road.
Spanning over two floors, the TraffordCity store will be offering over 75 jobs for the local community, and is expected to open before the end of 2022. There will be enough seating for up to 200 guests inside and 40 outside. The venue will also provide a takeaway service for those on the go and delivery options will be made available to those in the local area following the launch.

As well as coffee and donuts, foodies can order breakfast, lunch and evening meal options, including hot sandwiches, wraps and burgers, with vegan, veggie and halal options also on the menu.
Renowned for its impressive opening giveaways, locals and avid fans in Manchester are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled and follow the Tim Hortons Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages for more news. In May, one shopper waited from 1am to win a years’ supply of free coffee, while others bagged free donuts.
Kevin Hydes, Chief Commercial Officer of Tim Hortons franchise in the UK said: “Our opening at Trafford Park feels like the next piece of the puzzle in our quest to access more and more people in Manchester. It’s a popular destination with lots of people visiting the area for leisure activities, football and shopping and this will be our first restaurant reaching those in the Western part of the city.
“We are lucky to have a great fanbase in the city and we are proud to have invested heavily into the community since opening our first restaurant here. This will be one of our biggest restaurants yet, spanning over two floors and we will be offering over 75 jobs to help deliver the quality service we’re so well known for.”
Applications for jobs at the venue have opened today on the Tim Hortons website.
James Whittaker, Peel L&P’s Executive Director of Development said: “We are very pleased to be working in partnership with Tim Hortons to bring their popular offering to TraffordCity. TraffordCity is the UK’s foremost retail, leisure and commercial destination and with so much to do and experience, we know that Tim Hortons will be warmly welcomed and further enhance our food and beverage offerings as well as creating even more jobs in the area for the local community.”
