Tim Hortons is testing new menu ideas, adding pizza to its list of food options at select locations as part of a trial.
Customers in the Greater Toronto Area may be able to try one of their new flatbread pizzas at one of 20 restaurants, a spokesperson told CTV News Toronto.
Not much is known about the new menu items, but a photo provided by the franchise shows three options. At least one seems to have pepperoni on it.
“Every day, Tim Hortons restaurants across Canada hold test markets to test new ideas and menu items that we think our customers will love. This is just the beginning of this test market for flatbread pizzas,” a spokesperson told CTV News Toronto.
“Cheese on hold…but if customers want to get in on some of the action, they can check out one of the GTA’s 20 test restaurants.”
Reaction online has been skeptical so far, with many social media users questioning the change.
“Tim Hortons shouldn’t be selling pizza. This is actually crazy,” one person wrote.
“Pizza at Tim Hortons is something no one expected to see,” wrote another.
However, one person wrote on TikTok that the pizza, which in one photo cost around $7.99, was “pretty good” and hopes the item stays on the menu.
