Coffee Time is a popular Canadian chain of snack and coffee shops. Its main office is in Scarborough, Ontario. Coffee Time once had over 100 stores across Canada, in both Ontario and Alberta. However, by early 2023, their website showed about 30 locations. Coffee Time offers many items, including coffee and other special drinks. They also sell baked goods, breakfast sandwiches, and deli sandwiches with soup.

The Story of Coffee Time

Coffee Time was started in 1982 by Tom Michalopoulos. The very first shop opened in Bolton, Ontario. At first, stores were run under special agreements. Later, in the late 1980s, Coffee Time began to use a franchising system. This means people could buy the right to open their own Coffee Time shops.

In October 2006, a company called Chairman's Brand Corporation bought Coffee Time. This company also bought other food chains. These included Robin's Donuts, 241 Pizza, and Mrs. Powell's Cinnamon Buns. Starting in 2014, Coffee Time began to update its stores. They also changed their brand look to be more modern.
