How are the Burger Kings in your areas?? Ours seem to be hurting.

April 13, 2025 02:55PM
Wife and I went to one that we hit from time to time. Sat behind one car waiting at the drive thru speaker for 5 minutes so we just went inside. We were there smack in the middle of Dinner time and nobody was in there. Gotta say...Self serve Kiosks are NOT a help for encouraging people to dine in. We got ours to go. Service was a tad slow but there was just three people working and one young man was brand new. He was working hard. Salute to him. They got our orders right. Hell...WE got our orders right after figuring the Kiosk! LOL I just found it a bit depressing because so many restaurants are slowly dying. Chick Fil A's a re still killing it around here but even THEY have shorter lines. I told my Wife that I bet we see things like the early / mid 1970s when you might find 3-4 Burger Kings in the entire city of Jacksonville. I think people are tired of expensive and smaller food. I also think that people my age are turning away from fast food. Tonight's meal was not bad but I simply felt yucky after eating it. But back to Burger King....OFTEN, I see the ones in the Jacksonville area with few customers and often poorly run. Like the Krystals chains down here, it's almost like top Management doesn't care.

  Not at all, here in Jacksonville. We have a couple of Sonics but they are not too good.

  Speaking of Sonics. When I was stationed in Blytheville, Ark...
