Burger King Hougang RiverCourt is a branch of Burger King, the flame-grilled burger chain founded in 1954 and known as the original HOME OF THE WHOPPER®. Burger King began operating in Singapore in 1982 with its first restaurant at Peninsula Plaza, and Burger King Singapore Pte. Ltd. now operates 70 restaurants across the island.
The menu spans breakfast, beef and chicken/fish burgers, plant-based options, sides, sweets and beverages, with the Whopper — a quarter pound of flame-grilled beef with tomatoes, lettuce, mayo, ketchup, onions and pickles on a sesame seed bun — remaining the brand's signature item.
Burger King Hougang RiverCourt is one of 70 Burger King restaurants operating across Singapore, part of a brand that traces its roots back to 1954 and describes itself as the second largest fast food hamburger chain in the world.
Burger King first opened in Singapore in 1982, with its debut restaurant at Peninsula Plaza. Since then, Burger King Singapore Pte. Ltd. has grown the brand to 70 restaurants across the island, giving customers access to what the company calls the "great and healthy flame-grilled taste" of its menu.
At the centre of Burger King's identity is the Whopper, first served in 1957 and still going strong. It's built from a quarter pound of flame-grilled beef, topped with ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, creamy mayo, ketchup, onions and crunchy pickles, all on a toasted sesame seed bun. The brand notes there are 221,184 possible ways to order an original Whopper, reflecting just how customisable the burger is. For those who find the original too filling, the smaller Whopper Jr offers the same flavour in a more manageable size.
The wider menu covers breakfast options including a Breakfast Platter and the Breakfast Croissan'wich, along with Ultimate Selections, standard Beef Burgers, Chicken & Fish Burgers, and Plant-Based options for those looking for a meat-free choice. Sides, Sweets and Beverages round out the full menu.
Burger King's commitment, as the company puts it, is to premium ingredients, signature recipes, and family-friendly dining experiences — a formula it says has defined the brand for more than 50 successful years, serving over 11 million guests worldwide every day.
As one of the brand's Singapore restaurants, Burger King Hougang RiverCourt offers the same core menu as other BK locations across the island, with ordering available in-store or through BK Delivery for those who'd rather eat at home.
