Burger King restaurant on A1 at Colsterworth to reopen

A Burger King restaurant in the area reopened will open its doors tomorrow (Wednesday).

The fast food chain based at Colsterworth Services reopened for takeaway at the counter only.

Customers won’t be able to access the full Burger King menu, but Burger King favourites such as the Chicken Royale, Bacon Double Cheeseburger and Whopper will all be available to order.

Burger King said safety was its number one priority, and to enable restaurants to continue to reopen a number of procedures have been put in place to safeguard the health of both Burger King employees and customers, following detailed operational testing.

These include additional PPE such as masks and gloves for staff, stringent cleaning measures, contactless delivery options via Deliveroo and Just Eat and all Burger King staff comprehensively trained on the Government’s social distancing measures – including how to run kitchens hygienically, whilst abiding by them.

By the end of June, Burger King is working towards re-opening 350 restaurants (68 per cent).

Katie Evans, marketing director at Burger King UK said: “We are so pleased to be able to open more restaurants this week and slowly but surely get back to ‘normal’, ensuring all safety measures are in place.”

It comes after Stamford and Bourne branches of McDonald's reopened their drive-thrus.
