This page describes typical restaurants in the chain. Individual locations may differ.
Only a small sample of menu items are listed here.
Unless otherwise stated, prices exclude sales tax and are normal (not special offer) prices.
Queue at the counter (sometimes there is one queue, sometimes there are multiple queues).
Place order and make payment.
Receive receipt with order number.
Many locations now have serve yourself drinks with endless free refills, in which case you will given empty drinks cups.
Collect food when your order number is announced.
Place your rubbish in the bin provided and leave the tray on top.
Almost all locations also have drive-throughs.
Croissant (with egg and cheese, plus your choice of ham, bacon or sausage) $1.69 (summer 2000)
Breakfast Value Meal (a biscuit or croissant plus coffee and hash browns)
French Toast Sticks
Coffee $0.99 (summer 2000)
Some Burger King locations in Canada also offer a "big breakfast" which is especially good value for money
Chicken sandwiches. In June 1999 Burger King were offering their Chicken Sandwich (chicken in a bun, with lettuce and mayonnaise) for 99c as a special offer. This represented excellent value for money. Judging by photographs, exactly the same product, although called the Chicken Royale, was on sale in July 1999 in England for £2.29. (Both prices are for the sandwich alone, not a meal.)
Fries.
Value for money - generally reasonable.
Cleanliness - generally good but some locations leave something to be desired.
Quality and speed of service - generally good in small towns but very variable in larger towns. In recent years we have encountered several locations with insufficient staff and as a result unacceptably slow service.
