Popeye's, Tim Horton's Are Coming To Cinnaminson: Officials

CINNAMINSON, NJ — Two prominent businesses have received approval to set up shop on Route 130 in Cinnaminson, township officials announced.

Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen and Tim Horner’s Coffee and Bake Shop have received approval from the Cinnaminson Planning Board to move into the former Triboro Motors Site at Route 130 South and Taylor’s Lane, according to officials. Both restaurants are expected to break ground later this year.

Tim Horton’s will occupy 2,820 square feet, with a drive-thru and an outdoor seating area. It will be the casual restaurant chain’s third New Jersey location. Although there are currently none in South Jersey, a Tim Horton's is also being built in Stratford, according to 42freeway.com.

Popeye’s will take up 3,150 square feet, and will also have a drive-thru.

“The approved projects are the result of the continued development efforts of Township Committee and the Township’s Economic Development Committee, and will redevelop a long abandoned site at one of the township’s gateways, add approximately 50 local jobs and continue to enhance the Route 130 business corridor,” township officials said in a statement.

They are the latest of a number of prominent businesses that are set to open in the township. Chick-fil-A and Lidl have already said they will be opening on Route 130 in Cinnaminson, with work already underway on the Lidl store. Read more here: Construction On Cinnaminson Lidl Begins This Week
