Newcastle and Birmingham follow with 9+ branches each, while Sheffield, Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester, Bristol, Nottingham and Bournemouth each host a handful of restaurants. If your city isn’t in the table below, that doesn’t mean there’s no Burger King nearby — smaller towns and retail parks often have a single branch that doesn’t show up in city-level counts, so it’s always worth checking the app or Google Maps directly.

Burger King opening times vary by location type — a high street branch follows fairly standard hours, while a motorway service station branch is often open far longer, sometimes 24 hours. Always check your specific branch via the app or Google Maps rather than relying on these general hours alone.
For breakfast serving times specifically — which end earlier than general opening hours — see our Breakfast Menu hours guide.
24-Hour Burger King Locations
Some Burger King UK locations are open 24 hours — mostly at motorway service stations. Key 24-hour corridors include the M1, M25, M6, and M4. Use the BK store locator and filter by hours to find your nearest 24-hour branch.
Worth knowing:
most BK app deals and Your Burger King codes do not work at motorway service station locations. If you’re planning to use a coupon or deal, check the terms in the BK app before heading to a services Burger King.
Burger King Drive Thru Near Me
Most Burger King UK restaurants on retail parks, main roads and motorway services have a drive-thru, while high street and shopping centre branches usually don’t. There’s no separate drive-thru menu — you order from the same full Burger King menu, including breakfast during morning hours.
To find a drive-thru near you, use the BK app or the official store locator and filter by service type — each branch listing shows whether drive-thru is available. Google Maps also labels drive-thru branches directly in the business listing.
Drive-thru opening hours often run later than the restaurant counter. At many branches the dining area closes while the drive-thru stays open for another hour or two, and at motorway services the drive-thru may run 24 hours. Always check your specific branch rather than assuming the counter hours apply.
Burger King Delivery Near Me
Burger King is available for delivery via three platforms:
| Platform | Notes |
|---|---|
| BK App (direct) | Earns Your Burger King Crowns on every order |
| Uber Eats | Third-party — does not always earn Crowns |
| Just Eat | Third-party — does not always earn Crowns |
For maximum savings, ordering through the BK app directly is the only guaranteed way to earn Your Burger King Crowns on delivery orders. Not all locations offer delivery — check your preferred app to confirm coverage in your area. See our Deals & Offers page for current delivery promotions.
