This page explains why prices vary by location, how big the difference can be, and how to check the price at your restaurant before you order. It also explains what this site does not do: it does not print city-by-city prices, because the city prices in the data behind this page are typical US prices, not verified prices for individual cities. A page that prints a New York price it has not verified would be guessing, and guessing about prices is the fastest way to lose a reader's trust.
Why Burger King prices vary by location
Three things move the price. The first is the franchise itself. Burger King restaurants are owned and operated by franchisees, and each franchisee sets prices for their restaurants. Two restaurants in the same state can charge different prices for the same Whopper.
The second is the cost of doing business where the restaurant sits. Rent, wages, and local taxes are higher in some cities than in others, and menu prices reflect that. A restaurant in Manhattan pays more for its space and its staff than a restaurant in a small town, and the menu board shows it.
The third is local tax, which is not included in any price on this site. The prices here are pre-tax typical prices for November 2026. The total at the register will be higher by the local sales tax rate, and that rate varies by state and by city.
The result is that the prices on this site are a reliable guide to what a Burger King meal costs in general, and an unreliable guide to the exact price at one specific restaurant. Use them to plan and compare, and check the local price before you order.

How much is a meal at Burger King?
A meal — the sandwich as part of a combo meal — costs between $6.49 and $14.99 on the typical price list. The cheapest meals are the Hamburger meal at $6.49, the Cheeseburger meal at $6.79, the Chicken Jr. meal at $6.99, and the Rodeo Burger meal at $7.19. The Whopper meal is $10.99, the Double Whopper meal is $12.99, and the Triple Whopper meal is $14.99.
The fixed-price bundles are cheaper than any meal: the $5 Your Way Meal is $5.00, the $5 Duo is $5.00, and the $7 Trio is $7.00. Those are the prices to beat, and they are covered in full on the Deals page.
City prices: New York, Perris, and everywhere else
Two cities have their own price pages on the competitor's site — New York and Perris, California — and this site will have city pages too. But this page does not print a New York price or a Perris price, because no verified city price is in the data behind it. The typical US prices above are the only prices verified here.
That is a deliberate choice, and it is worth stating plainly. Some websites print a price for every city whether they have verified it or not. This site does not. When city prices are verified, they will be published on the city pages with the date they were checked. Until then, the typical prices on this page are the numbers to use, and the local check below is how to confirm them.
How to check the price at your local Burger King
There are four reliable ways to check a local price, and they are listed here in order of reliability.
First, the menu board in the restaurant. It is the price you will actually pay, and it is always current. Second, the Burger King app, which shows the menu and prices for the restaurant you select, including app-only deals. Third, the restaurant's listing in a maps app, which usually shows the menu with prices. Fourth, a phone call to the restaurant — the fastest way to confirm a single price before you drive there.
What does not work reliably is a price printed on a third-party website for a specific city, unless that website says when the price was checked and where it came from. Prices change, and an undated city price is a guess with a date on it.
The price spread — and why location matters most at the top
The full menu runs from $0.49 for dips and sauces to $14.99 for a Triple Whopper meal. That is a spread of $14.50 from the cheapest item to the most expensive meal, and location variation stretches the top of that spread more than the bottom. A franchisee who raises prices by ten percent adds five cents to a $0.49 sauce cup and $1.50 to a $14.99 meal. The items where a local price difference hurts most are the ones at the top of the menu — the Triple Whopper at $10.49, the Texas Double Whopper at $9.29, and the Double Whopper at $8.49 — and the meals built on them, which run to $12.99, $13.79, and $14.99.
The bottom of the menu is more stable. A Hamburger at $2.49, a Cheeseburger at $2.79, and four-piece Chicken Nuggets at $1.99 are value items, and value items are the prices a restaurant is least likely to push up sharply, because they are the prices customers remember. If you are travelling and you want a price you can rely on, the value items are the safest bet. If you are ordering a Triple Whopper meal, check the local price first — it is the item where the gap between the typical price and the local price is likely to be widest. The Deals page has the fixed-price bundles, which are the most predictable prices on the menu anywhere in the country: $5.00, $5.00, and $7.00.
