No frills spot serving your classic American fair with a few extras. Burgers, hotdogs, fries and the like. I headed over on a Monday afternoon to give it a try for the first time. No one was at the window so I had to wait a little in the sun and definitely broke out into a sweat before someone notice me 5ish minutes later. I got a single burger with cheese and it came out fresh a few minutes later. I grabbed a seat at one of the three picnic tables next to the stand and dug in. Burger was hot, cheese was melted and it was nestled on a sesame seed bun. It was pretty good don't get me wrong, but for $9 with tip and tax, it left a little to be desired. Fries are an additional $3 and were run of the mill. For these prices, I'd rather trek to my favorite spot in Chapel Hill *cough, cough* Al's *cough, cough*. Overall, it was a decent meal, a little over-priced but I'm not upset that I gave it a shot.

Perhaps we went on an off day but the burger was comparable to a burger out the box nothing memorable. The fries were okay and I'm just not motivated to revisit. Gave 3 stars because the employees were nice.

I was so excited to hear that they had vegetarian options because ya girl likes to eat. I ordered the Veggie Philly with a side of onion rings. I will say, I am also tired of having to pay extra for veggie options when the regular meat options are ways cheaper, but I digress. I feel for the amount I paid for the onion rings and what I got did not match, but the sandwich was GOODT, OKAY! It was very tasty. The bread was soft, the veggies were flavorful, and make sure to ask for the spicy mustard I added that to mine (it's not spicy at all). Now, I was expecting them to have a thin sliced veggie alternative but honestly, I think they just broke up a beyond patty and put it in a bun. I also asked before ordering did the veggie come with everything that the regular one did and it didn't. The cheese was different from mine. All in all I would definitely go back and recommend that you check it out.

I had a cheeseburger for lunch today and it was pretty tasty. King's is a Durham STAPLE and they never miss! I recommend trying the black bean burger, grilled chicken sandwich, crispy chicken sandwich, cheeseburger and lemonade/Koolaid. Quick, affordable, and delicious!

First, it was unbelievably busy already at 11:15am on a Saturday with a lot of repeat clients (you can tell from the way they order their food). I thought that King's sandwich was just ok. We ordered two single burgers, and a King's red hot dog with everything and fries. My burger was extremely dry and tiny compared to the entire bun. Also, the beef patty was not salted at all. All of the flavor from the burger actually came from the grilled peppers and onions, so thank goodness I got that added or else it would have tasted so bland. The buns themself was not grilled or buttered, and just tasted like store bought buns. The hot dog had more flavor, but was extremely soggy because of the chili. Although the hot dog was perfectly salted, it was the soft hot dog variety and had no snap to it (disappointing). The chili included in the hot dog was good and the fries were crispy and perfectly salted. Overall, I would not recommend this place. You can get an $8 burger at another place with better taste. Taste: 2.5/5Presentation: 2/5 - they dont care about it though lol Recommend to a friend?: No Consistent: 1st timeCost: $$Parking: Find street parking - kinda hard for downtown
