Tim Hortons Bowls Menu 2026: Loaded Bowl Prices, Calories and Flavours

I order Tim Hortons bowls when I want a real lunch instead of a sandwich in the car. Each one is built on a bed of grains with fresh vegetables, cheese, chicken, and a bold sauce, and because you eat it with a fork, it feels much more like a proper meal than anything else on the lunch menu.

In this guide, I cover every Loaded Bowl on the current Canadian menu, including prices and calories, what is inside each bowl, crispy versus slow-cooked chicken, the veggie bowls, the breakfast bowl option, whether the bowls are healthy, and what regulars think. Prices come from the most recent Canadian menu listing I could find and change by province and restaurant, so check the Tims app for your local price.

What Are Tim Hortons Loaded Bowls?

Loaded Bowls are Tims’ lunch and dinner bowls. Tim Hortons launched them across Canada on June 20, 2022, as part of a push to make Tims a real lunch stop after the Craveables sandwiches and Loaded Wraps. They prepare every bowl fresh to order with hearty grains, cucumber, tomatoes, and lettuce, then top it with your choice of crispy or slow-cooked chicken and a signature sauce.

The grain base is a mix of brown rice and quinoa, which is why people often search for a Tim Hortons rice bowl. The current menu adds cheese to every bowl, and it offers meat-free veggie versions for anyone who doesn’t want chicken.

How Much Is a Tim Hortons Bowl?

The chicken Loaded Bowls cost $11.99, and the veggie bowls cost $10.79 on the most recent Canadian listing I found, dated October 2026. Other listings show much lower starting prices, from $7.99, and older 2024 listings showed $8.99, so the Tim Hortons bowl price you pay depends a lot on your province, restaurant, and whether you order through a delivery app. Check the Tims app for your exact price before you order.

At around $12, a bowl costs more than a wrap or sandwich at Tim Hortons, but it is also the most complete meal on the lunch menu. If you usually buy a sandwich plus a side, a bowl can be about the same value.

What Is in a Tim Hortons Loaded Bowl?

Every bowl follows the same simple build, and the sauce is what changes the flavour:

Each flavour has also had its own topping. A 2024 breakdown of the lineup listed crispy onions on the Cilantro Lime bowls and jalapeño slices on the Habanero bowls. One early reviewer also noticed a few spoonfuls of fried, crunchy bits mixed in, which add texture.

Crispy or Slow Cooked Chicken?

You can choose either chicken when you order, and the choice makes a real difference. Crispy chicken is crunchy on the outside and tender inside, while slow-cooked chicken is soft without being mushy and soaks up the sauce. Nutrition data from June 2024 shows how big the gap is:

So slow-cooked chicken saved about 110 calories and added a few grams of protein in that data. These are 2024 numbers for the bowls before cheese was added to the current menu, so use them to compare the two chicken options rather than as today’s totals. If you are watching calories, slow-cooked is the clear pick.

Tim Hortons Loaded Bowls Timeline

The bowl menu has changed a lot since launch. Here is how the flavours came and went, based on the official launch announcement and a lineup tracker updated in June 2024:

That means the BBQ Chicken bowl has come back in a new form with cheese, while Sweet Chili, Buffalo Ranch and Chipotle Steak do not appear on the current Canadian listings I checked.

Tim Hortons Bowl Flavours

Cilantro Lime Chicken Bowl

I recommend the Cilantro Lime Chicken Bowl first. The creamy cilantro-lime sauce is fresh and tangy, keeping the bowl light even with cheese and grains. At 550 calories, it is right in the middle of the menu.

Habanero Chicken Bowl

The Habanero Chicken Bowl is for anyone who likes heat. The habanero sauce brings a real kick, and at 530 calories, it is the lowest-calorie chicken bowl on the current menu. It is my pick when I want something with more flavour for dinner.

Tim Hortons BBQ Chicken Bowl

The BBQ Chicken Bowl is the sweetest and smokiest of the three, and at 580 calories, it has the most calories of any bowl. It is the best choice if you do not like spicy food and want something more comforting than the cilantro lime.

Tim Hortons Veggie Bowl Options

The Cilantro Lime Veggie and Habanero Veggie bowls give you the same sauces and toppings without the chicken. They cost $1.20 less than the chicken bowls. They are vegetarian, but they are not vegan because they include cheese and creamy sauces.

Tim Hortons Bowls Calories and Nutrition

All five bowls sit between 530 and 580 calories, so the difference is small. The cheese, sauce and grains carry a lot of the calories, which is why the veggie bowls are not much lower than the chicken ones. Your chicken choice also changes the total, and asking for light sauce is the easiest way to cut back. The Tims app shows full nutrition, including protein and sodium, and updates it as you change the chicken or sauce.

Are Tim Hortons Loaded Bowls Healthy?

They’re among the more balanced meals at Tim Hortons and the closest thing to a Tim Hortons salad bowl, with grains, vegetables, and protein in one bowl; they’re also more filling than a donut or muffin with the same calories. But they are not light. The sauces and cheese add fat and sodium.

For a healthier bowl, choose slow-cooked chicken, ask for light sauce, and pair it with water, tea, or black coffee instead of a sweet drink. If you need gluten-free food, skip the bowls, since gluten-free guides list them among the items to avoid at Tim Hortons.

Discontinued Tim’s Loaded Bowls

If you are looking for an older favourite, these bowls were on the menu in 2024 but are not on the current Canadian listings:

Tims often brings flavours back for a limited time, as it did with BBQ, so check the app if you miss one of these.

Tim Hortons Breakfast Bowl

Tim Hortons does not sell a breakfast version of the Loaded Bowl, but the Scrambled Egg Loaded Box is the closest thing to a Tim Hortons breakfast bowl. It comes with seasoned scrambled eggs, crispy hash browns, and your choice of bacon or sausage crumbles in a box you eat with a fork, plus a drizzle of chipotle sauce. The egg version starts at $5.49. You can find every version and price on my Tim Hortons breakfast menu guide.

Are Tims Bowls Worth It? What Regulars Say

Reviews are split, and both sides are worth hearing. Food blog Foodgressing tried four flavours in 2024 and found the ingredients fresh, the sauces great, and the quality better than expected for the price, with Cilantro Lime as the favourite. Narcity’s launch day review in 2022 was much harsher: the reviewer found the Cilantro Lime bowl bland, drowned in sauce and built on a single big piece of lettuce, and said the same ingredients work better in a Loaded Wrap.

On the Tims subreddit, the most common verdict is somewhere in between: the bowls aren’t huge, but they are good and filling. The most common complaint is the price for the portion size, especially now that bowls cost close to $12 at many restaurants.

My take: a bowl is worth it when you want a real meal and plan to sit down for it. Ask for light sauce, since too much sauce is the most common complaint, and choose slow-cooked chicken. If you are eating on the go, a wrap is easier and cheaper, and if you want a snack, a bagel or a donut does the job for much less. Earn Tims Rewards points on your bowl by ordering through the app, since the higher price earns more points per order.

Best Drinks With a Loaded Bowl

A bowl with sauce and cheese goes best with a simple, cool drink. I like an iced coffee or water with the Habanero bowl to tame the heat, and a black coffee from the Tim Hortons coffee menu with the Cilantro Lime. If you want a treat, add a donut from the Tim Hortons donuts menu after your meal.

Final Thoughts

Tim Hortons bowls are the closest thing to a full sit-down meal at Tim Hortons. Go with the Cilantro Lime Chicken bowl for a fresh, balanced lunch; the Habanero Chicken if you like heat; the BBQ Chicken for something sweet and smoky; or a veggie bowl if you want no meat. Choose slow-cooked chicken with a light sauce to keep it lighter, and check the Tims app for local pricing.

Hi, I’m Jordan. I started this site because finding current Tim Hortons prices online was harder than it should be, and most menu pages I came across were years out of date. I check prices against the official Tim Hortons app and website, and I keep every page updated whenever prices, sizes, or items change. If something doesn’t match what you’re seeing at your local store, message me through the contact page, and I’ll look into it.
