Tim Hortons

Stopped in for lunch today and ordered a steak melt panini with chipotle sauce. My wife hot the ham and cheese melt panini. The lady behind the counter told us they were out of white bread and only had wheat. We waited for our sandwiches to be made for maybe 3 or 4 minutes. We got our sandwiches and neither were cut in two, no problem. The game and cheese panini had lettuce and tomato and some sort of dressing. It was a really nice looking sandwich. Mine on the other hand was just plain looking. Again, no problem. We noticed the cheese on both was not melted like you would think so on a melt.
I started eating mine and realized there was nothing but meat, cheese and a few tiny red onion pieces. No chipotle sauce. I took my sandwich back and advised them of the mistake. The on girl took my plate and told the woman making the sandwiches that mine was missing chipotle. She shrugged her shoulders and said that she didn’t make it. I was asked if I just wanted sauce pit on it because they were out of swiss cheese. A sandwich shop out of bread and cheese at lunch time? I finally got my sandwich back and finished it. The sandwich was fine but nothing to brag about.
I have had food from here before and it was really good.

This Tim’s is across the street from Marietta College and was an easy stop on the way back to the hotel from I-​77. I certainly «Brake for Tim Horton’s» and am pleased to see this chain on this side of the 49^th Parallel. I made 2 stops here during my recent trip to Marietta, once for a late nigh snack and today’s early morning coffee and bagel run.
The US version of Timmy’s has the same look and feel as its Canadian cousins and right down to the ceramic coffee cups and soup bowls. The prices are in line and the service was prompt and friendly The coffee was what I expected, but unfortunately the evening donut was on the stale side. No maple crunch either. The morning bagel was much better. And on this very cold morning, that and the coffee certainly were the perfect combination. No line up either.

Residents of the Mid-​Ohio Valley have most likely offered patronage to a Tim Hortons in Parkersburg prior to this location opening, but this is another welcome addition to Marietta.
My wife and I stopped by for breakfast during a visit back in July and I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere. They did a really good job on the renovation and the parking lot offered a lot of shady options. I think my wife had the garden cream cheese on an everything bagel and I had a sausage, egg and cheese on whole grain. We also tried about a half-​dozen different doughnut holes, which were awesome. I had coffee and my wife had an iced coffee drink.
Overall it was a very enjoyable breakfast, and at a good price.
