Reviews of Burger King Turangi

A. P.

Got asked for my vaccine pass for the first time here . Was big and clean and the manager took it upon herself to be the vaccine guard at the door. Which I commend as none of these staff should be expected to become bouncers now. Food was fresh and crisp and the service was prompt and friendly

L. J.

Good stop for a travel break when driving. Fuel up the car, use restrooms and get a bite to eat or ice cream before going onto the desert road going south. Be patient as queues can be long.

B. D.

5 star review for this restaurant! I got a frozen stack last night and oml the girl on the drive thru made me the best looking stacker I had had in a while! It was frozen and not liquid. Thanks Bailey!!

K. G.

Was the best BK I've ever had.. Place was super clean and food was fantastic, ladies serving were excellent.. 😊

m. s.

This is our "road trip stop" EVERYTIME we travel between Wellington and Coromandel. What can you say about Burger King? Great burgers, great frozen coke, seriously affordable, and conveniently located right next door to a petrol station.

S. O.

The food was good and the service from the team was great, they were keeping up with the large customer flow as much as they could and were full of smiles and positive attitude. My heart went out to the team as they were obviously short staffed on a busy school holiday Saturday afternoon. The toilets also needed some attention.

D. O.

Service was super slow, perhaps they were down a staff member or 2. Lady at the checkout was friendly and nice.

S.

It's ok but could do with a good clean.

P. R.

Easy stop while on our way from Auckland to Wellington! Thankful!

I. T.

Food was alright, service was good, but the restaurant was very dirty.

T. W. M.

They have good food and also they have nice staff. Service with a smile

S.

Sooo Busy!! But kai was good, staff still smiled. Well done!

m. n.

Awesome staff so friendly, fantastic fresh hot food that was a joy to eat. Well done Turangi keep it up. 😊😊❤❤

P.

Food was ok and service was very quick

D.

Wait was so bad, went here on the way from the snow and although there was not many people the wait was long and the food not very hot so not sure where the delay was or if the delay was with the staff.

D. C.

Great to see staff had taken so much care with social distancing sanitization and entry and exits. NOT great to see stinking filthy toilets..needed a good clean of basins floors and walls Dyson dryer in disabled toilet so dirty I didn't want to put my hands in.I didn't go into the gents but could smell it from the corridor.come on Burger King!!

D. D.

The food and staff were as expected for Burger King. Nearby is a tunnel under the motorway that has some great graffiti.

D.

Lovely place, very clean and good service. Connected to a Z I think, so it's pretty great for fueling up and getting a bite. Also has nice bathrooms

P.

Quite a wait with Covid. Not many workers but also only a few customers. Not sure what the holdup was.

T. G.

First visit here for a long time. Previous visits included partially frozen meat patties and very careless, disrespectful staff a few years ago. Today we thought we'd give it another go and it was much better, food was fresh, hot and tasted good. Of our whole meal only one burger had a partial cold patty. The staff were much better and managed to cope with the lunch rush with polite respectable treatment of the customers.

R. N.

Nothing much you can say about Burger King. Big store, plenty of spaces.

L. B.

Good customer service...fast quickly served 👍

A.

Fast service. Food was hot and in it's wrappers and the service was good. Cried a little that timeout was shut though lol

M. I.

Burger King is a fast food joint. The food wasn't fast. It takes about 12 weeks to raise a chicken for meat. It seemed to take about the same to get served chicken tenders. There were slightly more staff than customers but when it did come, the food was exactly what you'd expect: satisfactory.

R.

Clean table and fast food service

G. S.

Always reliable. Just be aware when redeeming from the app you can only redeem 1 deal at a time. When it offers to add another deal on, this is not free.

C. B.

Busy, but didn't have to wait too long for service or food. I cheaped out and got the rodeo burger, which I can't recommend (dry patty and bun, overcompensated for with a small flood of sauces). However, the chocolate chill - a BK go-to for me - was delicious as always.

G. V.

It's OK but same decor as 16 years ago when I passed through regularly - food is fine - facility - may be refurb or face-lift time?

B.

Long wait due to busyness but was well worth the wait

A. H.

Very busy, not very clean tables. So busy, slower service. Food as expected, friendly staff though. Saving grace

R. S.

King feels like a stretch maybe burger distant royalty. Food was pretty good though tried mixing the Sprite zero with vanilla. Wouldn't bother if I do that again I'll use real Sprite the artificial sweetener overwhelmed the vanilla. Place was a little slow but the chips were hot and that's all I really hope for in a fast food place.

H. P.

Lots of dead insects in the back corner, must'vehad exterminators in? and due to an ordering issue/shipping issues the full menu was available, however what we did have was delicious, maybe suggest having another server to assist as the lovely guy on front counter was put under pressure by himself, but hard to predict through traffic so fully understandable as far as staffing levels.

J. S.

Used the self service screen and removed mayo from my burger. Burger still came out with mayo and it was the only change I made. Burger and chips were really hot and fresh.

Z. O.

Loo's weren't too bad. Think this place is the main loo stop for every man and his dog on this road. P.S. If you're thinking of going up route 32 to Tokoroa from here you have two choices - endure windy horrible road for the first half of the trip, but not much traffic and you save about twenty minutes. Second choice is up SH1. I took route 32 and regretted it. I'd rather travel in comfort and don't give a damn about the time factor.

M. H.

I like burger king I just wish the burgers represented what they look like on the pictures but like many burger and takeaway places they hardly resemble what they are advertised to look like. Food was fresh and chips hot. Only thing I didn't like was too much sauce on the burger so kept dripping down the bottom very messy. I do like that you can fill your own drink and have as many refills as you want.

D.

Positive flow on from Covid, it was much cleaner than usual.

M. B.

Bit of a wait but food was super hot and fresh. Good place to stop for a bite on a long drive.

J. Y.

Food was mostly hot, a bit salty on the fries. Quick. Still have the rodeo burger on their menu compared to our local one. A decent deal for $12: BK chicken or whopper, bbq rodeo, regular fries, regular drink, and three chicken tenders or a sundae.

C. S.

One of the workers here, Natasha, was so knowledgeable and lovely! She knew what would make the meals cheaper and offered it without prompt. She also aided in ordering (being vegetarian) a cheaper version of an egg McMuffin (usually have to order bacon and egg without the bacon which still makes you pay for the bacon). She also mentioned the vegetarian burger and was able to describe it with every ingredient. She honestly deserves a raise! and made what’s usually a frustrating last resort meal enjoyable and easy!

b. m.

Too busy and disorganized staff only gave us 5 of 6 burgers and had to que back up for the 6th that was just sitting there

E. W.

The food was good. The staff friendly. The local kids loud. Thankfully there weren’t mine 😂making all the noise for once.

D. N.

Standard bk joined to a petrol station just off the highway, so very convenient. Using the self service touch screens to order.

T. V. D.

Usually burger king is our first choice fast food. Unfortunately today we were disappointed. Coke was flat, chips far to salty and buns tasted a little old. Petty as we spent lots and as we're on the move with time constraints our dinner was not satisfing.

K. D.

Food was good, and came out pretty quickly. The place seems quite clean, and is convenient as its located next to the petrol station.

P.

Always quite slow but was busy. Best to mobile order to save wait time if in a hurry

D. G.

Asked for a double whopper without a bun and it arrived with a bun. But they were incredibly busy so understandable. The double whopper makes a great low carb burger because you can use the second pattie on top like a sandwich.

T. S.

Burger King, mate, no one makes a mean onion ring with BBQ sauce quite like these champions. Smash a creamy mayo or gobble up a whopper, either way you get a decent feed for the cash moneys. Get in on those coupons bud and you're away laughing. Cheers team, you make the world a better place.

P. K.

Very busy. So it's pot luck to getting a clean table. Bins are full. The staff are lovely though.

J.

Was ok . I got 2x junior whoppers and 2x small fries on a coupon for $7. There normal price was $16 No way would I have paid that. The burger was the size of a xmas mince tart Haha.

R.

Always cold because they leave the doors open and there are some interesting folk coming in at night... which the police may be interested in. Food is as expected... service was very unhelpful... but I would blame the wages and environment. Good luck.

F. V.

It the staff appeared overrun. The tables weren't wiped down properly (as per every fast food restaurant). But the burger tasted great

M.

Nice simple meal at good value

P. H.

Its ok. Free wifi. Clean. Free refill.

A. N.

It's a BK. Got the job done and was nicely positioned for road trippers. As always make sure to get the app for the best deals. You can always uninstall it afterwards.

R. O.

They literally saved my life and over night shipped my passport and wallet and cell phone to me in Wellington so that I would be able to go home to the USA. Above and beyond costumer service!!!! Plus I had a very nice Coke float while I was there!!!!

J. P.

Clean, quick and edible as a fast food joint should be. Deduct a star for the Polynesian version of Boy George''s Karma Chameleon playing on the idiot box which did not aid digestion

M.

Good space for sitting here and it's attached with pump ⛽. Washroom facility u can use

K.

Alright. Some pretty rude staff tho.

B.

Love how the burger King was attached to the Gas station!! 10/10fast, friendly and helpful!!

S.

It just another fastfood outlet, they need to clean the tables a bit more regularly.

R. S.

Sits were sticky, but their coffee made me awake for the long drive.

R. H.

Last weekend, Sunday in fact we were travelling from Auckland back home to Wellington; whether the Desert Rd was going to be open was dodgy, in fact at the stage that we arrived at the Restaurant, the road was not open. We ordered our food, I wanted something a little extraordinary, the top of the range Angus Burger. Then Brent entered our lives, as it turned out, here was a young local guy, we assume, who cared about his job, and equally cared about his customers. My burger was going to take a little 5 or 6 minutes extra, it took a little more than that, upon enquiry, Brent apologised, and the virtually gave us a minute by minute progress report. The when the food arrives there were extra fries aboard, and Brent insisted that we should have a complimentary dessert. His care was extraordinary, and unexpected, my wife and I thank and congratulate this young man, and please if there is any such reward as employee of the month Brent is certainly deserving of it. Being someone who is involved in the service industry, congratulations to Brent and congratulations to Burger King Turangi, who performed via this young man magnificently under a day of extreme pressure.

H. H.

Hadn't eaten a burger in well over two years. Had the double whopper with cheese. Was actually good. That's me for another year or two

R. L.

Nice open space with many seats. Opens till 10pm so it may be the only place to get a hot meal if you're out late in this small town.

L.

First burger king I've been to where the service was decent

l.

Nice and tidy just was there on my way to Palmy. Quick service when you are in a hurry to drive.

T. R.

Fast, clean very efficient staff has a time out for younger kids. Very large forecourt, which is very good considering the large amount of customers.

J. K.

Its always busy and I think they should have more workers working cause I always see the same lady working alone in the counter in lunch times and the food is good always.

R. R.

This place is always busy and seems like they always short staffed. Been there few times but never saw a clean table to sit .
