What's bizarre about this particular Burger King is the amount of discussion surrounding it. No joke, when management changed somewhat recently, it was the talk of local Merritt Island community discussion groups....which probably goes a long way to explaining how much goes on in this town. This was heartening in a way, because people were impressed with the uptick in quality, and were more than happy to mention the new manager by name, giving a face to the beneficial change. This was often disturbing as well, as when there was a problem at this particular Burger King, people felt they could call this manager out directly...which is creepy and has got to be some kind of harassment.
All this being said...what I have gotten there, food wise, has generally been the best I have had at any Burger Kind. The best whopper. The best rodeo burger. The best chicken junior. Yadda yadda yadda. Calm down though, it's still a Burger King. For what it is, it's great, but keep those expectations in check. This isn't filet mignon. It's fast food. Jesus doesn't make the sandwich himself, and you'll still probably want to nap afterwards. There occasionally a wait at drie through, but my food is always hot.
Last thing. While my food is always good, something is always forgotten. Honey mustard. A fork for a Hershey pie. And them's the breaks. Life's way of saying even the best Burger King can only be so perfect. Take it for what it is. You might have great fries, but you might not have ketchup, and there's some meaning to be found there. You can't always get everything you want, but what you do end up getting is done your way....and that's something we should all aspire to receive and be grateful for.
Four out of five. Ya done great, but...
Read moreMy boyfriend and I usually meet here for lunch once or twice a week because it’s right across the street from his work. The staff is always very nice, they’re usually offering a featured meal for a great price (right now it’s 2 regular or bacon cheeseburgers, fries, and a drink for $3.79), the food is always hot (and I am extremely particular about having fresh/not old, stale french fries), my boyfriend really likes adding cherry flavoring to his root beer with the Coca-Cola freestyle machine, and I am always happy with how good and fresh their sweet tea is!!! The only area I’ve ever noticed that could use improvement is the cleanliness of the dining room... a lot of the tables needed wiped off and the drink area needed to be tidied up. Obviously, it wasn’t a huge issue because I’m still giving them 5 stars, which I feel like they deserve due to their consistently great food and service! I can’t think of another fast food restaurant that I have ever been able to say that about...
Read moreThis burger king deserves zero stars! Went through the drive and waited forever in a line of 3 cars. I was wondering what was taking so long but then I realized once I got to ordering that the girl who was taking orders could barely articulate a sentence. Once I arrived to the window it was very apparent this girl was under the influence of some kind of substance; bloodshot, half opened eyes, could barely focus or move around. I was instructed to wait around the front to receive the rest of my meal which took another 10 minutes. Starving at this point I decided to eat in my car. I looked in the bag, no napkins, no ketchup (like I requested, twice!) Maybe 5 fries. I noticed about halfway through my chicken sandwich it didn't appear to be cooked all the way. I was so grossed out I decided to toss the meal in the garbage. Please don't waste your time or money on eating at...
