Burger King was founded in 1954, according to the company, and since then has become one of the main fast food restaurants in the country. The home of the Whopper attempted a breakfast menu in 1979 to compete with McDonald’s menu, but it wasn’t until 1983 that its flame broilers were versatile enough to make its breakfast foods, according to The Balance Small Business.

Burger King’s breakfast menu is filled with originals like the Croissan'Wich. It also offers a variety of other breakfast items such as sandwiches, platters, burritos and sides.

When does Burger King stop serving breakfast?

According to Burger King’s public relations department, “Breakfast hours vary by franchised location, though our system average is 10:30 a.m. for the changeover to lunch.”

We checked with five locations in Maryland, Iowa, Oklahoma, Arizona and Washington and all said they stop serving breakfast at 10:30 a.m., local time. A location in Adelphi, Maryland said they stopped serving breakfast at 11:00 a.m.

Burger King's team suggests customers contact their local restaurant for location-specific breakfast serving hours, or use the company’s app.
