Canada Restaurant Chain Tim Hortons Is Opening in Austin, Texas | Eater Austin
"This forthcoming Round Rock location at 16201 Ranch Road 620 will be the first Austin‑area outpost for the Canadian coffee-and-doughnut chain. Permitting records indicate construction began in June with work slated to finish in September, and a company representative told Eater the store is aiming to open in the fall. The opening is part of a county-specific expansion led by parent company Restaurant Brands International and local franchisees Jim Kolkhort and Richard Santowski—experienced Burger King operators who will oversee Williamson County sites and plan to open about 10 stores in five years, with potential nearby sites including Georgetown, Leander, and Cedar Park. The brand is known for its coffee, Timbits (doughnut holes), breakfast items, sandwiches, wraps, and chicken strips, and typically offers both drive‑thru and dine‑in service; the company already added Texas locations in Katy and Houston in 2022 via another franchisee." - Nadia Chaudhury
