To get in on the action, guests simply need to order a Whopper or Chicken Royale at the front counter or drive-thru to get their burger totally free.

Not only this, the 100th customer who orders at the restaurant will win a year’s supply of burgers at the Wigan Platt Bridge restaurant.

The new eatery will be offering table service, so hungry customers can place their order, take a seat and enjoy their mouthwatering menu items being delivered directly to their tables.

Limited-edition Burger King UK tote bags are also being given out to mark the opening, including a leaflet with exclusive offers available on the Burger King app – but guests will have to be quick as there are only 100 available.
