Beer at Burger King
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Want fries and a beer with that? Burger King is opening a restaurant in Miami Beach that will serve beer, the chain's first U.S. location with alcohol.
The Whopper Bar South Beach will allow customers to pair a Whopper with Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors brews. With fries, that combo will run $7.99.Burger King to sell Beer in one of their locations? Who thinks this is a ridiculous idea?
Chucky Cheese and John's Incredible Pizza both sale beer, and they are both establishments where you are supposed to bring your children, so children aren't the issue here. I honestly find nothing wrong with drinking a beer with your hamburger, the problem is is that it is a fast food place. Beer is meant for a relaxed environment so you can enjoy the beer, you sit down drink, talk, relax. At Burger King you're not meant to sit back and relax for an hour, you're meant to sit, eat, and leave, 20 minutes tops. With beer you will just make Burger King more crowded with less seats available to sit and eat your meal. Burger King would have to change their seats since they are hard seats because no one is going to want to sit on them for more than it takes to scarf down your Whopper. And it isn't one of the last places to bring your family, there's still McDonalds, Jack in the Box, Carl's Jr, Taco Bell, Long John's Silvers, Panda Express, Wendy's, etc.
this is ******* stupid. whats wrong with having a beer with your meal? i doubt any college kids are gonna be like "LETS GO TO BK AND GET ****** UP!!"
theres a thing called a BAR that you go to drink lots. Nothing wrong with having a beer with your meal, they do it in countries all across Europe.

Burger King to sell Beer in one of their locations? Who thinks this is a ridiculous idea?I'd still prefer to go to a pub that sells hamburgers...
I question why you would be so upset with someone having a beer with their hamburger. You could take your family 3 miles down the road to a different BurgerKing. Apparently you think it will be an all day drunk fest because of them offering beer.Burger King to sell Beer in one of their locations? Who thinks this is a ridiculous idea?
that is soooo wrong cuzz i dont wanna see drunk ppl when im eating
bad idea,
they are desperate because their food stinks.
(Born again,Bible believer)
Yes it's a bad idea.
its called a drive through
get roflstomped
nub
Doesn't Chucky Cheese's serve beer also? I seem to remember that from childhood.
Also, I frequently eat at restaurants that serve alcohol even though I don't drink myself. I've never been bothered by anyone who was enjoying an alcoholic beverage with their meal. Are you perhaps getting restaurants confused with bars %26amp; nightclubs?
I choose not to drink and that is my personal preference. However, I am not so arrogant to think that others shouldn't be able to drink if they so choose. I think our country is on a slippery slope because too many people feel that their personal beliefs and opinions should apply to everyone. (Okay, I'm off my soapbox for now...)
I don't think it is a bad idea. There are a lot of people that enjoy a beer with their meal. I guess if you don't like the idea you can always choose another high dollar classy restaurant to take your family.
Because Burger King decides to sell beer in the place you,like so many others feel that the place will be an all day long drunken brawl??? Next you, like so many others will want them to hire people to stand at your table, while you and your family are trying to eat your meal,and quote the Bible . Nothing wrong with the Bible mind you I am just saying........ Where does it all end with you..? Unless you live in Miami and that is the only place to "Take your family" then Don't worry about it. I agree, who takes there family out to eat at burger king?? Chucky Cheese serves beer, But when you think about it have you ever been in there? When the place is full of screaming hyperactive kids? Maybe if you frequent that place you have to have a few beers.
Well, it's a good way for them to make money, and a lot of people do enjoy beer with their meals. As long as they make sure to sell only to overage customers [and hopefully not through the drive thru], then what's the problem? Maybe they'll limit a customer to only a few beers, so they don't get too drunk. Chuckee Cheese serves beer, and they don't have any problems with that. I'm sure you'll be able to find another restaurant to take your family to.
Lots of slow food restaurants serve alcohol, and when you go there do you constantly get drunk people coming over to your table and bothering you? No. So why would it be any different at a fast food place?
It's not a great idea. Fast Food Restaurants want you in and out, and as a customer you really don't want to hang out at a BK very long. So, slam two quick beers and on the road. I really never go there, at least inside the restaurant. I imagine BK is thinking it will boost business late at night.
So this is a $$$ issue for BK, I seriously don't think it will spread throughout the U.S. It could be that this Miami location is doing it in part due to the tourism and beach dwellers in the summer. I can't see many places doing it.
I'd say it does sound ridiculous.
I'm with you on this one !!!
