    Tim Hortons - Someone was in a hurry when topping these old fashioned dipped. A little more chocolate would be nice. Port Huron loads on the chocolate.

    Ok I feel the urge to combat all these negative reviews here. I just don't get it. I have been to…read morethis Tim Hortons probably about 300 times. And I've been to about 30-35 different Tim Hortons all over the state and in Canada. First off, no employees have ever been rude nor anything but pleasant, ever. Secondly, I've never seen a drive-thru line (at ANY type of fast-food establishment) move more quickly and efficiently as this one. Like every. Single. Time. I usually go here during the busiest time of day (weekdays around 7:30) and it continually blows my mind how fast the line moves. I mean cars can be wrapped all around the building and back to Main St, and I never hesitate to go even then, because know it's gonna move quickly. And maybe most importantly, when i order my typical breakfast sandwich, it's ALWAYS damn near perfect. It's at the ideal temperature and the cheese is always melted a lil bit, just the way it should be. When I order the same thing at most other Tim's, I'm usually disappointed. Sometimes it's lukewarm and the cheese isn't melted at all, etc. So my point is, do not hesitate to go here with confidence. Reading all these previous reviews, I feel that many Yelpers are either just ignorant, complete and total pansies, or perhaps were just having a bad day so they felt the need to bash this place. No bashing here though, this is THE BEST Tim's I've ever been to all things considered and I'm glad it's my local one. Nice job Tim Hortons of Richmond!! I would give you 10 stars if I could.

Honestly if you know anything about food at all, you'd simply agree that this is the case. After two separate visits, we thought we'd give it one more try, just to be fair and boy, the old saying about fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, couldn't hold more significance. Here's a couple of tips for selecting a good restaurant or perhaps more accurately, not selecting a bad one: If their daily specials menu insert includes everything but the line cook's soiled underwear, leave. If the menu is 15 pages long, leave. If most of the positive reviews and/or photos are two years old or older, leave. If one of the photos shows hard boiled eggs that have green yolks, leave. How the heck do you keep so much food fresh to offer so many menu items? You can't, especially when your core business is breakfast. The wife and I ordered a Rueben to split, deluxe with two sides and we chose fries and a cup of soup. The fries were straight out of a GFS bag, no surprise there. All so-called "diners" rely on nasty frozen foods from Sysco or GFS anymore. The "cup" of Navy Bean soup I would call more a thimble. The cup was so small, we could barely squeeze the spoon in there to sample the wallpaper paste they call a soup. The sandwich was so disgusting, we both had a quick bite and immediately sent it back. Spoiled sauerkraut for sure. The corned beef stack was so thin, I doubt there was two ounces of meat. It was also soaking wet, as if it had been sitting in a pot of hot water and pulled out to make the sandwich. Perhaps steamed but given the lack of effort in producing what should be a diner staple, I wouldn't think so. Boiled meat has no flavor or color and this is precisely what we were asked to swallow. The whole sandwich itself was quite small, almost tiny. No thousand island dressing. The wife and I are no strangers to well made, tasty corned beef sandwiches. Ken's was one of the worst, if not THE worst we've ever had. If you can't make a good corned beef sandwich, you should not be calling yourself a restaurant, period. It's a diner staple. So, now the bill. The sandwich was $8.99 on the menu. We ordered it deluxe and got the thimble of paste and the food service fries for an additional $5.49. We also ordered an iced tea, which was so over-steeped it was black and bitter, along with a bowl of "Coney Chili" (National for sure or some cheap knock-off, yuck). When we sent the sandwich back and declined a replacement the waitress person said they would take care of us and they sure did, they took care of us alright. $17.89 was our final tally after the deduction! They deducted $8.99 for the sandwich, charged us for the sides, which we barely touched then we had to haggle the bill at the register with some obnoxious, pushy Albanian women that thought it might be a good idea to give us a punch card with three punches, how generous. I said "if we sent the food back, why were we charged for the sides"? During our negotiation process, which was embarrassing and humiliating, we noticed another order of Rueben's leave the kitchen and then we overheard a cook remark that the kraut was indeed spoiled. We also overheard the booth next to ours complaining about their food. This was our third try. The first time we left because we were there on a Saturday morning and it was so crowded and noisy and they tried to seat us in the middle table where we would be rubbing elbows with our neighbors. We said no thanks, we'll come back some other time and pushy foreign lady literally hounded us to stay and we had to high tail it out of there with what felt like a tijuana street barker nipping at our heels. On the second visit, I was alone and ordered some kind of Greek Skillet with gyro meat which coincidentally, was also spoiled, I was afraid to eat the food and I did eat about half and got sick the next day. How this place got a reader's choice award for best family restaurant is a mystery to me. They must have really stacked the votes. Maybe Ken's was once worthy of such a claim but it isn't now. Shame on this place for ruining no less than 3 dining experiences for us. Nothing worse than leaving a restaurant hungry and with a feeling that you've been pickpocketed.

The past few times I went there, the smoothies were not made to their usual high standard. They either were not blended completely, the flavors were tasting off, or there were big ice chips inside. They also have been out of dark chocolate, the past three times I have tried to order a chocolate peanut butter cup smoothie. And this past time that I went, we had two smoothies and two quesadillas, and we both spent all afternoon in the bathroom. So they obviously are not up to their usual clean standards and they're having unsafe food handling issues or unsafe temperature issues. This is the first time that I have ever gotten sick from eating there. And it was both of us, so I know it was either the smoothie or the quesadilla. So to the owner of this place, you should probably figure out what's going on and why things are going downhill, because it's not good!!!
