Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out friendly staff and a clean, newly refurbished restaurant, and several describe quick service and hot food. Diners name the new BBQ burger with chips, a Wednesday special burger, and drive-thru orders that arrive well presented, and one calls the food brilliant. Several remark that the restaurant sits nearly quiet while the McDonald's next door stays busy. One says they were the only diners inside, and calls Burger King tastier and better value. Complaints are fewer but specific. One reviewer says the food tastes off and is getting worse with each visit. Another received a Whopper missing its beef patty and a Chicken Royale missing its cheese and bacon. The manager handed over loose slices on the side and refunded only the burger rather than the meal. A delivery order never arrived, the tracker showed the driver had not left the store, and no refund followed.

“Server went over and beyond for us, food was brilliant! Don’t understand why the McDonald’s next door was busy and this Burger King was quiet. This is now my go-to fast food place when I’m in the area”
- Joel McRae
“This isn't to do with the staff at BK, rather their worthless excuse of a delivery service. Driver didn't even leave the store on the tracker but was apparently stood outside my door for "10 minutes". End result? No food and no refund. Terrible communication and no response when tried to call. If you want food delivered, I suggest avoiding this store.”
- John Hull
“Have a burger king app so decided to go and eat at the south shields one. Ordered Wednesday special for myself which was a burger for £3 Wife had new bbq burger n chips and soft drink for £6 special offer. Didn't have to wait long and came out pipping hot. What i can't understand is why there are hardly any customers every time we visit compared to McDonald's next door. Hands down burger king is more tastier and value for money compared to McDonald's. We were the only one sitting inside the restaurant for the 20 minutes we sat there. Which is great shame.”
