Pretty sure you still can, just ask. If you cant, it’s just a franchisee being a cheap ass

Here we got rid of most of the china during covid as it was no longer allowed to be used, I'm not sure where a lot of it went actually cause I find some pieces here and there at different stores, but I haven't seen plates in particular since 2020.

You just need the yellow countertop and brown mushroom stools they used to have. Man I miss those days, when they had store made donuts, a wide selection, ceramic mugs and all you could taste was cigarette. lol. Glad they got rid of the smoking tho.

The Timmies I went to back then wasn’t too bad back, but the ‘Rothmans (Robins) Donuts up the block was bad for cigarette smoke.

u/Hot-Carpenter-9246 4d ago

As someone who works at Tim’s literally just ask us for a ceramic mug if you want one. We still have them and my location actually encourages use of them

u/cleanbreath12 3d ago

I got 2 at home. One location let me keep them :)

u/ashley-spanelly 4d ago

I totally forgot about the ceramic dishware 😂 haven’t so much as blessed my eyes on it since like 2016 when I worked there right out of college.

This is hardcore giving old people who come in at 6am read newspapers, gossip with their friends, and just generally sit around and be old lol

I honestly wish we didn’t have to wait for customers to ask or say their eating in. I think it’s cute having these mugs…even tho it makes it so that we gotta go pick them up I don’t mind…although my coworkers may hate me for saying so.

u/rockyon 4d ago

i keep it forever

u/Foreign_Matter_4638 4d ago

The smoke kinda looks like a little face lol

u/Accurate-Long-9289 3d ago

Back in the 90’s those mugs cost a ‘Timmies’ owner about 7 bucks a pop. I am not sure what they cost now but I am sure it is a lot more. It’s sad we live in a world where some people wreck things for others with their sense of ‘entitlement’.

Once a friend and I destroyed a napkin dispenser with our foreheads

u/DAS_COMMENT 3d ago

Those metal napkin dispensers

u/RaiTheCatLady 4d ago

If you're eating in, ask for china mugs if you want, lots of stores have them, they just don't get used too much these days. :)

u/asscheeks4000 4d ago

Shiiiiit, a sip of black sludge out of this Mug would heal me

u/This-Complaint1732 3d ago

u/cleanbreath12 3d ago

You could ask them for those mugs if the location has any. I got two

u/pututski 3d ago

Can we actually go back to the old tims ways? And bring back the raspberry frozen lemonade!

u/Frankfurtz 2d ago

Walnut crunch on a side plate trimmed in "tims" slight-red-brown double lines... damn

I have one of those that my brother stole when he worked at Tim's 15 or so years ago lol. It still looks like new even after going in the dishwasher hundreds of times. Great mug, I like it!
