Burger King

This was a unique weekend in downtown Kansas City. In the Kansas City Convention Center was a comicon. My friend and I walked to Burger King. While in a lengthy line, I noticed an out of carbon sign. I was lucky to have seen it. I ordered a number 3 combo plain with a large vanilla milkshake without whipped cream. I received a regular number 3 combo with a large vanilla milkshake with whipped cream. My order was corrected while I waited. The food I ate was good.

Depressing. Sticky floors, both employees were sitting in the back on their phones when we walked in. Got approached and asked for money by a homeless man while IN the restaurant. Saddest of all, the ‘burger bar’ which was the ‘big idea’ of some corporate boardroom is shuttered and empty… steer clear and go to chipotle next door if you want a quick meal in power and light.

First of all, BK should not even be in downtown. It doesn’t belong. We want locally owned restaurants that aren’t tied to some far away corporate concept that serve real food, not processed junk. Nevertheless, if it has to be here, it should at least be clean. Stopped in for a tea and the bathroom and found the place so dirty and gross that I wouldn’t drink the water. Not sure how it is staying open and hope that it closes soon.

The air had broke when we walked in it was hotter than the devils crouch the guy was very polite while sweating his assets off the poor cook look like misery had taken control these 2 people were calm. I had the nerve to order a corn dog and fries they were not best tasting items of food my water taste better it didn’t have a aftertaste lingering in yo
ur mouth like the corn dog and fries overall I’ll say for 90 day it was an interesting experience I hope the air will be fixed tomorrow for those people who work there

Do you like Burger King burgers? Of course you do because Burger King burgers are awesome. The Whopper Bar is amazing and the burgers are huge. This location is in the middle of the «Power & Light District» and is perfect for the after party indulgence.
When we went, CT was a gentleman and a scholar and was very welcoming. The store was out of a few desserts at the time we went (hour before close) but he comped us some cookies!
Perfect!

Slow rude service, bland food even by fast food standards. The store is filthy. Eaten here a have dozen tines (close to work) but my blast trip will be my last. Save it to say the prep area is much less than sanity. The employees honestly think they are doing you a great charity slapping bun, meat, and bun together. The wait time is unacceptable.

This place is one of the most disgusting places you could possibly walk into let alone get food from.
After swinging by here to use the restroom and realized that the restaurant was incredibly dirty and the bathroom was worse than a truck stop, I would never eat here. I don’t know how it’s not been shut down for some sort of health code violation.
Sorry, but no.

Been here a couple times. The food is OK as far as that goes, but every time I have visited, the service has been very slow. I’m not saying I won’t go back, but I have lowered my expectations for timely dining.

One would think that the Burger King Burger Bar in Power & Light would be kind of a nice BK. After all, they serve beer and sit at the center of the fancy, schmancy party district.
Ah, but you’d be wrong. This is a disorganized mess of a fast food joint.
The cashier was extremely slow when I visited with two friends and seemed confused.
Burger King’s «Make-​it-​your-​Way» promise seems appealing here, as the menus and signage all offer toppings like avocado, grilled onions, crispy onions, mushrooms and more. Except, you can’t get most of the them. Cashier told us sheepishly that they don’t really have most of those things.
I had their veggie burger and it was, eh, okay. I was told that the Whopper tasted like it was made three days prior. Ew. I know fast food doesn’t spoil with its unnatural conglomeration of preservatives and food voodoo, but that’s just not appealing.
Fries were adequate. My onion rings came with a random assortment of burnt fries and shriveled sweet potato fries for some reason. Dirty fryers, I’d guess.
The location was also kind of dirty. I will not be back again.

I never thought I’d give a Burger King 5 stars. But they definitely deserve it.
Food: Typical Burger King food. It’s fine and it’s nice to see them assembling the food right away.
Atmosphere: Probably the nicest Burger King I’ve ever seen. They have tvs and plenty of seating (even outdoors).
So why 5 stars?
Well, I accidentally left my credit card on the tray and didn’t realize it was gone until over 7 hours later when I got home. I called the Burger King and asked the manager if she had found a credit card. She said no. I checked my balance and saw that no additional transaction had happened. I figured at this point I actually threw away the card. I called my bank and they said that there was a hold on the card and the manager at BK had found the card, called the number on the back and put a hold on the card. I was amazed. I went to Burger King the next day and the manager who had found it got it out of the safe. She was so professional and helpful. I had hoped they kept it but I never expected them to go as far as to call my bank and help me like that. So kudos to this BK and their staff! Thank you Burger King!

It’s pretty nice to go to fast food restaurant and see everything that is going on. It is even better when you can see and get beer, Boulevard even!
I think they have a cleaner establishment because of it. I did find out a little known tip. Even though they are higher than typical Burger Kings, they take the mail in coupons. So if you use that, then they go back to normal prices — with beer.
I never really paid attention to the mail in coupons I got at home until I got that.

I actually read other Unilocal review of the BK Whopper Bar while eating at the BK Whopper Bar. I didn’t really find it to seem that much pricier than what I’d consider 2 meals from most fast food style restaurants.
The location is convenient if you’re in the downtown P&L area and want a cheaper and quicker bite of food.
For a name like the BK Whopper Bar, I was really expecting more. Ultimately this is the same as every other Burger King, except maybe a few additional «specialty burgers». The Whopper Bar wasn’t a bar in the sense you get to go down the line and add whatever toppings you want yourself. There was a semi bar behind some glass where you could tell them what to put on it. There really weren’t any fun or exciting toppings to help make it stand out. I also thought the meat was actually dryer than some basic fast food establishments.

This place is awful
I should have known when I walked in and saw customers standing around waiting for their food. I almost walked out but then stayed to truly see how awful they are
The California whopper is nothing but a bland whopper with guacamole
This place will be gone soon
Hopefully they can replace it with a better quick service burger joint
P&l needs one

Just as you need to love somebody for who they are not not what you want them to be, I firmly believe you should review businesses in the same manner. A dive bar and the ritziest place in the world can both be 5 stars, as there are unique criteria for both.
So, what are the criteria for a place called BK Whopper Bar? Be as good as a Burger King, with additional bells and whistles to justify the premium price. Wow this place fails.
I eat Burger King more than I care to admit. There’s just something about it that I am conditioned to love. When this place opened up a block from my old office, I feared for my cholesterol and my waistline. It ends up both were safe, as after a couple of visits I felt no desire to ever return.
The bottom line is that while this place has some «specialty» burgers, they’re not only not great, but they all taste worse than an average Burger King. Add to the experience that everything is more expensive and takes longer, and I just ask myself «why? Why does this place even exist?»

Um Im extremely confused as to why this place has 4 $ signs next to it. It’s definitely not expensive. unless u think $ 5 is expensive for a burger and fries. It just has no value menu. Anyway, pretty ok place. The chicken sandwich is horrible but the next time I went I got the California burger which had guac and good stuff on it. That was tasty for an artery clogger!

This is just a burger king with less options and higher price tags. The toppings were NOT good (mealy tomatoes, brown lettuce) and the service was mediocre at best. It might have been because we were there on a week night, but I felt like I was eating in an over-​priced, over-​air conditioned burger king. With several other good fast food choices around (the MIXX and Chipotle are right next door), it’s safe to say that we will definitely not be going here again. Good idea, BK, but falls oh so short of anything better than your regular fast food.

The burgers here are subpar. You can even get better burgers at a Burger King’s elsewhere. It’s overpriced, the burgers are flatter than McDonalds’, and the meast tasted like cardboard. The only thing going for it is it’s location.

I’m happy there’s a place downtown to grab a quick burger and a beer if you like. This is the only fast food burger join downtown and thankfully for downtown residents, it’s open on Sundays. The layout inside is actually pretty well put together. My praise ends here though.
While they try to do something more than just a whopper by adding special ingredients, it just fails. I got the bourbon burger. The sauce and toppings are decidedly unexciting. While they try to be an upscale burger king, it’s just barely passes mediocre. The burger is wayyyy too much bread for my taste. I ate mine by taking off the top bun and eating the burger with a fork. For a $ 7 burger, the meat was pretty thin on this thing. Fries, standard and boring. No attempt to go upscale on these.
Blanc Burgers should have replaced Chef Burger when it closed.

Is it pricey by KC standards? Yes. Is it a hang out for the city’s affluent, white and middle aged? Yes. Did it have best damn Whopper® I’ve ever had? HELL YEAH!
You know its on when your cashier makes a «presentation» before you decide to order.
A friend and I had Whopper®s, two BK™ Garden Salads, Onion Rings, French Fries, a HERSHEY® ‘S Sundae Pie and six beers for about $ 170. It sounds pricey unless you consider this would have been a 300 – 400 meal in any New York Burger King of that quality. I ate with a rich business friend who goes to the best fast food restaurants in New York and he testified that his Whopper® was «on point» and possibly the best he ever had.
The décor is meh, but the service was outstanding. I felt like an old, rich, white man for 2 hours. Any service that can temporarily undo the legacy of Slavery and Jim Crow is pretty damn good.
In conclusion, this is a great place to eat flesh if you want to class it up for a night in KC.

*Great big, smiley, deep breath*
Oh. My. God.
I was told about this place…
I still wasn’t prepared for what I was about to partake in.
The «California Whopper» burger that I ordered came to me in a very good amount of time (especially when with a group of 6). I was thrilled. Placed before me was a giant burger topped with a patchwork of bacon, lettuce, tomato with guacamole and melted swiss. My first bite made me feel like Adam Richman on MVF saying «oh my goodness». Talking was no longer an option. This burger encompassed my being. I’m here, over 3 days later still tasting it in my mouth and salivating. Best. Burger. Ever. Seriously, the best burger I’ve ever eaten.
It doesn’t stop there, I ordered a side of onion rings that were delivered with, get this, Zesty Sauce. Delicious. But wait, there’s more.
«There can’t be more, Jacob.» You say.
Oh yes, there is. The beer selection has it’s own multi-​page menu. There are about 3 beers to choose from in a vareity of styles. I went with the hard to find Boulevard Wheat. Served in the ever-​elusive aluminum bottle. Chilled to perfection, and only a $ 2.00 addition to my combo.
Still thinking of the burger though… I wanted to hug the chef.
