As its name implies, Burger King is, first and foremost, a restaurant chain that serves burgers. While brunch and breakfast brunch Burgers are beautiful to see for a few, only some are eager to indulge in the Burger King covered in condiments and oozing American cheese as they sip their morning cup of coffee.
Fortunately for those with more traditional tastes in the most significant breakfast they can enjoy, Burger King boasts a breakfast menu with bacon, eggs, and other staples.
Burger King introduced breakfast to its menu in the latter part of 1970, just a few years after McDonald’s introduced their Egg McMuffin.
The chain is now offering almost two dozen breakfast items. If you’re looking to indulge, you’ll need to wake up early; the breakfast options at Burger King are available to those who rise early.
Here’s the best time to head to your nearest outpost for breakfast (hint that some places might have earlier opening times than others) and what you should take home when it’s your turn at the drive-through.

Get there before 10:30 a.m.
Most Burger King locations open at 6 a.m. and start serving breakfast promptly. The one Burger King location that stays open 24/7 may start serving breakfast earlier.
Crossing-country drivers and graveyard shift workers pay attention. No matter what time the Burger King location opens, they all observe the strict cutoff time for breakfast at 10:30 a.m.
It’s not like Burger King wants to shame those who do not sleep. Instead, it should increase its grill’s temperature to accommodate the famous burgers for most of the evening and throughout the day.
There needs to be more space on the grill or the warming trays for breakfast items and the regular menu items.
It could be a time when Burger King will again follow the same pattern as McDonald’s tradition of serving breakfast all day. However, for now, customers must arrive early.

Find a favorite menu item
If you can get to Burger King during breakfast hours, it will be apparent that the chain offers more than just egg-and-cheese sandwiches but they do have plenty of them.
By all accounts, Burger King’s signature breakfast item seems to be its “Croissan’Wich” sandwiches, which nestle eggs, American cheese, and other breakfast-appropriate ingredients between two halves of a flaky croissant.
The meat lovers can choose to have it that includes bacon, ham, sausage (or a wacky mix from the three). You can also choose the glazed chicken with maple and the “Egg-Normous” burrito that includes eggs, bacon, cheddar cheese hash browns, and a “creamy hot sauce.”
Vegetarians (or those limiting their meat consumption) could opt for eggs and cheese, a pancake tray, or a side with French toast or hash browns.
Burger King’s breakfast menu is devoid of vegetables and fruits. This is something to remember if you want to have a balanced start to your day.
