⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A CULINARY MASTERPIECE AMONG THE CLOUDS
Forget Paris. Forget Rome. Forget Michelin stars. The true pinnacle of global gastronomy is tucked away between Gates 15 and 17 in Glasgow Airport: Burger King.
From the moment you approach, it’s not just the smell of sizzling beef that greets you — it’s a warm, comforting embrace from a childhood friend you didn’t know you needed. The golden crowns glint under the fluorescent lights, promising salvation from overpriced “artisan” baguettes and wilted salads.
The service? Swift, decisive, and executed with the kind of quiet confidence that can only be forged in the crucible of an airport morning rush. Each Whopper is assembled with a precision that would make an architect weep, every sesame seed in place like a star in the night sky.
The chips? Golden batons of joy — crisp enough to sing under your teeth, yet soft and fluffy inside like they were carved from clouds by angels on their day off.
The drink machine? A shimmering oasis, offering fizzy nectar that tastes somehow better when consumed at 7:42 a.m. while watching planes taxi.
And let’s not overlook the sheer theatre of it all: weary travellers with trolley bags, pilots in full uniform, stag dos in matching t-shirts — all united in hushed reverence as they bite into the one true constant in life’s turbulent journey.
By the time my boarding call echoed through the terminal, I realised something profound: I wasn’t just full. I was transcendent. My soul had been Whopper-flamed to perfection.
If Glasgow Airport ever loses this Burger King, I will chain myself to the counter and refuse to leave.
Final verdict: 11/10. A culinary cathedral in...
Read moreWow well what can I say. Me and the Mrs were jetting off to the canary’s and as if I wasn’t excited enough, we all of a sudden come across the greatest fast food experience in the world. (Holidays not even started yet and my weeks already made) I approach the counter to a young man with luscious hair and a warm welcoming smile on his face. He greeted me sincerely introducing himself as Gabriel and asked how he may assist me. I’m a big boy now so this order wouldn’t have been for the faint hearted hearted, however not a problem for Gabriel. After a short wait my number was called both clearly and confidently by that of who else but Gabriel. He hands me my try (feeling like chicken royalty 😛) and hopes I enjoy. Awww boy oh boy did I ever. Everything about it was perfect. I approached the counter again as I had forgot to pick up sauce. Gabriel was more than happy to help even giving me 1 extra than what he usually gives 🫢. The rest of the staff were excellent but the service from young Gabriel was second to none. Truest an experience I’ll remember for the rest of my life. Set my holiday up for success and can’t wait to land home so I could thank...
Read moreBarrie - where do you even start with the guy. There aren’t enough words in the English language to encapsulate how Barrie can make you feel. In fact, let me paint you a word picture. You’ve been rudely awakened at the prospect of an early flight to London - sure, it’ll be fun, but you’re not exactly elated with your current state of fatigue. You’re hungry, of course you are; your body clock’s been thrown off and simply doesn’t understand if it needs to eat or not. You arrive at the airport, head through security… and there he is. A 6'8" delight with a glowing face and beaming smile, ready to serve you your Burger King meal with the utmost efficiency whilst simultaneously respecting your hunger boundaries. Barrie, I’ll cut straight to the point. Thank you for all you do for the company, the people, and the world. This seems sarcastic but it’s not. I hope the rest of your life treats you well. If I’m lucky enough to cross paths with you again, I don’t doubt that you’ll meet me with that same brilliant work ethic and...
