Canadian chain Tim Hortons launched a drive-thru in Nottingham’s Burton upon Trent this week.

Situated in Middleway Leisure Park, this large venue not only offers a number of Halal items, but also happens to be the brand’s 75th UK store, according to its website.

What’s more, Tim Hortons is preparing to launch another two sites in Liverpool’s Racecourse Retail Park and Skirving Place on Great Homer Street.

Tim Hortons cater for trio of Halal items…

A spokesperson has informed FtLion: “Our Turkey Hot Dog is Halal approved. Please note that if you are purchasing our new Tims Turkey Hot Dog, please ensure you order with tomato ketchup and not the maple & chorizo ketchup which is sold as standard.

“The Chicken and Turkey Hot Dogs are baked in our restaurants on separate trays, therefore there is segregation of the Halal-certified products throughout the process.”

The other two items include the Tims Crispy Chicken and the Tims Chicken Tenders which are “sourced from suppliers whose products are certified as Halal by religious authorities” and the “chicken is baked in our restaurants on separate trays. Therefore there is segregation of the Halal certified chicken throughout the process”.

Tim Hortons clarified: “We don’t promote our restaurants or meat as Halal approved. However, our Tims Crispy Chicken and Tims Chicken Tenders are sourced from suppliers whose products are certified as Halal by religious authorities.”

The business also explained that while “the rest of our meat is purchased from EU countries and is not Halal…. The chicken is baked in our restaurants on separate trays. Therefore there is segregation of the Halal certified chicken throughout the process”.
