Burger King

Every once in a while I’ll stop by this BK branch late at night (1AM-​4AM) and I always order chicken nuggets. This is the only branch I’ve ever been to that doesn’t make them fresh and who knows how long they sit out in the open for. Disgusting.

I stopped in for an iced tea on a hot summer day. The value drink ($ 1.00) was a good deal for dine-​in customers (free refills). The service was fast, and somewhat friendly, while the interior was clean. There was a play area for kids, but no free wi-​fi.

I live near this location, so I stop here somewhat frequently. I guess I’ve had better luck than other reviewers.
The service is usually decent. I try to go here around 4 — 4:30 p.m. Usually at that point the food has just been made and is fresh. When I’ve stopped at other times it has tasted microwaved. I like the Crispy Chicken Jr. It’s only a $ 1 and tastes pretty good.
The people working here are typically friendly. This location is a bit run down. They often can’t hear you properly through the intercom. The order screen also has been shot with a BB gun and thus doesn’t work properly.
If you like Burger King, come here when the food is fresh and you’ll be happy. If you hate Burger King, this location is not going to change your mind.

I do not like Burger King.
I do not like their onion rings.
I do not like the flame broiled grill.
I do not like the burgers, they are quite ill.
I do not like their french fries.
I do not like the selection of pies.
I do not like their morning tots.
I do not like the service they got.
I do not like the lack of listening.
I need a tea, my brow is glistening.
Anyhow… with that being said, I stopped for a tea for me and water for the pug. This is my drive thru experience.
«Can I get a large iced tea and water?»
«What kind of tea? Unsweetened, sweetened, or peach?»
«Unsweetened.»
Brief pause…
«What kind of tea? Unsweetened, sweetened, or peach?»
«Unsweetened.»
“That is a small unsweetened tea and a water?”
«No a large tea and a water.»
«Just pull around.»

Fast, efficient and get my order right. The food is ok. I don’t like this busy location but maybe I’m just lazy. Seems like one has to negotiate several stop lights to get in and out. I don’t come here often just when I’m in the area but the business is not bad nor is the food.

I don’t go to this location often, although I drive by it almost daily, it’s at a busy intersection and often I have trouble communicating with the staff. I think you should be able to speak some English to take orders at a drive thru. Anyway, nothing sounded good for breakfast today so this was the last opportunity before I got to work. I was running a little late so didn’t feel like going in some place.
I’d seen those new gouda sandwiches advertised, but had forgotten about them. I got a bacon, egg & gouda breakfast sandwich. After repeating my order and correcting the order taker a couple times, she finally said «it’s alright, come around». Well, I wasn’t sure it was alright, but I drove around anyway.
It took her several minutes to come to the window to collect my $ 3. Doesn’t $ 3 seem a little high for a breakfast sandwich? I dunno. Anyway, she took my money, then I waited and waited. She finally went over and got my sandwich, which had been sitting in the window ready. By the time I got it, it was sorta warm, but the cheese never melted.
The sandwich comes on an English muffin. I have to say it was actually pretty yummy. I would have preferred for it to be warmer, cheese melted, etc. but the muffin was good (I’m not a fan of English muffins) and the bacon was good. I wasn’t sure I’d really notice the gouda, but I could. I think they put some kind of herbs on it too, but it wasn’t overpowering.
Good sandwich, meh restaurant, bad price. I probably won’t get one again unless someone else is paying because I’m cheap like that.

I don’t know why I keep going back to this place. Nearly every visit has consisting of waiting at least 15 minutes (even when I’m the only customer), then an additional 5 – 10 when I get to my car and realize they screwed up my order and have to go back in for them to correct it.
And the food always sucks. I swear BK was good once, but it’s just. Awful.
I actually DO know why I go. It’s three blocks away and for some reason I crave BK once in a while, perhaps thinking it might be different next time. But I need to remember that every trip there ends in me feeling annoyed and gross.

Why am I writing a review of Burger King? Because it sucks so hard there may be a black whole devouring us as we speak.
Burger King has so many things wrong with it. The fact they call themselves a restaurant is one of them. The fact they microwave your food when one of their selling points is flame-​broiled is another. The King? Seriously creepy.
They also have one saving grace. They have veggie-​burgers in a fast food chain, which is great when you are driving cross-​country like we do every year with two vegetarians.
However, this particular location on Roe has to be one of the most inept at providing you with said veggie burger ever. I’ve had to wait 15 minutes for them to produce one. Apparently they had to kill all the veggies, then form it into a patty, then microwave it. Who knew it was so hard?
