Burger King

The FOOD and service is good… at least it was back when I still went there, now that they have decided to become a «Canadian» company to avoid taxes… I’ve not been back. I’d REALLY like to since I’m not too wild about McD’s and Culver’s is a bit expensive. But nope, not happening they lost me as a customer unless/​until they start playing fair. That means EITHER paying a LIVING WAGE to all their employees, OR paying taxes in the United States as an American Company, preferably both.

Every few years I get a mild craving for Burger King. Last time I was at this location was probably 5 – 10 years ago. My memory of that visit: great service, dirty place (with flies inside,) and disappointing food. I repressed that memory and stopped in the other day since it was handy and I wanted onion rings. Update: still great service, a little cleaner, and disappointing food.
The employees all seem super friendly, and they were organized and efficient. The place wasn’t much dirtier than a typical fast food place, but I had to walk around looking for a clean table (during what seemed like a slow time, midafternoon.)
The onion rings weren’t bad; theirs are always heavily breaded, small rings, and while not the best I kinda like them once in awhile. I was a little hungry so I tried the sriracha long burger (or some odd name like that.) It was basically a hoagie bun with two patties side by side. The bread was mediocre. The hamburger patties were meh. The veggies were okay; fresh, but not impressive. The cheese was unmelted. There was some «sriracha flavored sauce» squirted on top. All in all, a lackluster effort.
I might be back in 5 years. I won’t have high expectations.

Burger King is my favorite of the fast food places, because I just like their burgers. The new satisfies are good. I always end up waiting here, but I don’t blame the staff. It always looks way understaffed, yet somehow they are nice and friendly. The owner might just be cheap. I have often gotten colder fries mixed with hot fresh fries. Not sure about cleanliness. I have done the drive through a few times. I’m sure I’ll go back, but probably only alone. My family prefers not to go here.

Slowest fast food ever. Seriously. Not a busy time of evening nor was the place packed yet I sat in the drive through for 20 minutes before I gave up and went to Culvers.

Really wanted a fish sandwich. Fast-​food wise, Wendy’s has a good one around Easter, but after that it’s McDonald’s or Burger King. Since McDs is usually cardboard, went with BK. Mistake. I never go there for fish as it’s hit and miss. Sometimes good, mostly greasy. Today was greasy. I know why they call it the Whaler-it’s a boat anchor for a whaling ship. This thing will weigh you down for sure. And the fries are a clear third place behind Wendy’s new seasalt fries and McDs. This particular BK, while clean and modern, was noisy with alarms going off, banging of stuff behind the counter and the sometimes amusing but still annoying sound of drive through customers through the speaker. The service was no better or worse than anyplace else (God bless the people that do this!), but BK seriously needs to step it up. There’s no reason to come here when there’s a Wendy’s down the street that’s more pleasant to sit in and a much better quality of food.
