I love BK! One particular dinner night (tonight) I was craving their new Whooper Melts, after persistently seeing their commercials. So, I ordered the Bacon Melt and was anticipating getting home to eat. We do check the bag for all our food before we leave the drive-thru, but we don't unwrap every sandwich and investigate it. So, we made it home and when I unwrapped my burger, my mouth dropped open with disappointment. I first noticed that the bun was a regular sesame seed bun, not the sourdough bun that I was looking forward to. And there was no bacon on it either. I basically received a dressed double whopper. Needless to say, I ate it, as I did not feel like driving back there at that moment. Afterall, I still enjoyed my sandwich, even though it was not what I ordered. I did, however, call them and let them know of their mistake. They took my name and told me I would have 30 days to come through and they will give me a Bacon Melt free of charge, of course. I appreciate that and look forward to picking it up tomorrow. And I will hold up the line a few seconds (more) to unwrap it and make sure it is the right sandwich. I guess I'll have to start going that far from now on. But as I said at the start, I love BK,...
Read moreSo a few days ago while I was at college, I went to a Burger King to try the new impossible whopper. It was surprisingly good, so I figured maybe my past experiences with this particular BK may just be due to ignorance. But oh no, let me tell you what exactly transpired as I walked in the doors. My friends and I go in to immediately hear someone telling employees they need to wash their hands before touching the food. Gross, right? It gets worse. So we order our food, we eat while squashing multiple flies that attempted to get a taste of our food ((which was cold and taste less btw)), and all is well, right? Well, about an hour later as we're walking through a different store, it happens. We both look at each other with a mutual understanding of what is about to happen, and we rush to find the nearest restroom. There may be no active volcanoes around this area, but the events that transpired in that bathroom felt like Mount Saint Helens coming out of my stomach with a burning passion for revenge. I'm not sure if that's the last of it, as I fear that I may have another date with the bathroom toilet later tonight, but it will certainly be my last time...
Read moreI've been in town for some weeks so I decided to take a short drive tonight to visit this location. Actually, there is a store that is closer to me, but they would not accept the current promotion, because they don't have the capacity to accept mobile orders. This location does. The promotion is the Whopper Wednesday deal which is $3 for a Whopper sandwich. I ordered the Whopper without onions, and a small fountain drink. Even though I was the only customer inside of the restaurant, they took nearly ten minutes just to prepare the sandwich. It seemed like the people working here are completely unmotivated. The Whopper sandwich itself was dry, and I think that it was cooked earlier then just re-heated in their microwave. I did manage to finish it however, since it was pretty much my only meal all day. But obviously it was not worth to drive 5 miles out of my way to order this, and I wouldn't recommend anyone...
