Crosby's/Tim Hortons Opens Friday

Reid Stores, Inc. will open a new Bradford Crosby’s convenience store that will house the city’s first Tim Hortons quick serve restaurant next week.

The new 4,800 square foot store replaced the existing Crosby’s on 1002 East Main Street. A ribbon cutting ceremony will mark the grand opening on December 12, 2008 at 9 a.m. The Morning Buzz will be broadcasting live from the grand opening.

The Bradford Crosby’s/Tim Hortons will serve a full menu, including breakfast sandwiches, donuts, bagels, muffins, sandwiches, soup and an assortment of cold and hot beverages. The quick serve restaurant will also have a convenient drive thru window and will operate 24 hours a day.

Tim Hortons, founded in 1964 in Hamilton, Ontario, is one of the fastest growing quick service restaurant chains in Canada, and has become increasingly popular in some Northeastern states in the U.S.A. The chain specializes in baked goods, homestyle lunches and is famous for their signature Tim Hortons coffee.

“We’re excited to open the first Tim Hortons in Bradford,” Doug Galli, General Manager and Vice-President of Reid Stores Inc., said. “Tim Hortons is a great franchise with a strong brand name. They are known throughout Western New York for their good customer service, quality food and, of course, their legendary coffee.”

Bradford residents can take advantage of Crosby’s free Wi-Fi access while enjoying a hot beverage, meal or snack. The free Internet connection, designed to accommodate laptops, smartphones and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), will be in the store’s Corner Café Connect seating area.

The expanded store will feature the latest in interior décor and larger cold beverage, frozen food, dairy and produce sections. Crosby’s will offer an expanded food service menu with Buffalo-style chicken wings and sheet pizzas. The store’s food service department will offer special pricing for local schools.

Crosby’s will also carry a wide selection of tobacco products, along with other amenities including an ATM, prepaid wireless phone cards, gift cards and postage stamps. Sunoco brand fuel will flow through the station’s pumps. The fuel facility will be upgraded in the spring.

The Bradford Crosby’s will operate seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
