Burger King Specials South Africa (2026): Every Current Deal and Price
Burger King South Africa doesn’t run one weekly special the way Steers has Wacky Wednesday. Instead, the deals are spread across five places on the menu: King Value meals, the Epic Value flavour meals, King Boxes, King-Size Combos for groups, and the 2 Epic Meal Deals and app coupons. Most pages listing “Burger King specials” mix these up with old prices, or with US coupons that don’t work here. This page lists every Burger King special running in South Africa in November 2026, and works out which ones actually save you money. Three of them don’t.
Prices checked: November 2026, from Johannesburg Burger King branch listings on Mr D and Uber Eats. Delivery-app prices usually run a little higher than the counter price, so in-store you may pay slightly less. For the full standard menu, see our Burger King menu prices page.

The quick answer if you’re short on time: the cheapest complete Burger King meal with a drink is the King Value Hamburger Meal at R48.90, and the best value for a hungry person is the King Value Triple Cheeseburger Meal at R83.90, which gives you three beef patties, fries and a drink for R24 less than a standard Whopper Meal.
King Value Meals: The Everyday Burger King Special
King Value is Burger King’s budget menu, sometimes labelled King Saver. Every King Value meal comes with a small fries and a small drink, so the price you see is the price you pay for a full meal. This is the closest thing Burger King has to a permanent special, and it is where most of the real savings are.
| King Value Meal | Price | Patties |
|---|---|---|
| King Value Hamburger Meal | R48.90 | 1 beef |
| King Value Cheeseburger Meal | R55.90 | 1 beef |
| King Value Chilli Cheeseburger Meal | R55.90 | 1 beef |
| King Value Chicken Burger Meal | R55.90 | 1 chicken |
| King Value Double Cheeseburger Meal | R69.90 | 2 beef |
| King Value Double Chilli Cheeseburger Meal | R69.90 | 2 beef |
| King Value Double Chicken Burger Meal | R69.90 | 2 chicken |
| King Value Triple Cheeseburger Meal | R83.90 | 3 beef |
| King Value Triple Chilli Cheeseburger Meal | R83.90 | 3 beef |
| King Value Triple Chicken Burger Meal | R83.90 | 3 chicken |
The pricing follows a clean rule: each extra patty adds exactly R14. Going from a single Cheeseburger Meal (R55.90) to a Double (R69.90) to a Triple (R83.90) costs R14 a step, compared with the R30 per patty you pay to go up the Whopper range. If you want more beef for your money, the King Value Triple is the strongest order on the whole Burger King menu.
King Value premium meals: Big King, Royale and Rodeo
Burger King also sells its bigger signature burgers in King Value format, with the same small fries and small drink.
| Meal | King Value Price | Regular Meal Price | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Big King / Big King Chicken | R90.90 | R104.90 | R14.00 |
| Royale King (beef or chicken) | R90.90 | R104.90 | R14.00 |
| Rodeo King (beef or chicken) | R90.90 | R104.90 | R14.00 |
| Bacon Rodeo King (beef or chicken) | R119.90 | n/a | n/a |
The R14 saving comes from the smaller sides, not a cheaper burger. If a small fries is enough for you, the King Value version is the better buy. If you’d upsize anyway, the saving mostly disappears.
Epic Value Meals: Chakalaka, Chutney and BBQ Burgers
Burger King’s budget flavour line is now branded Epic Value: a set of South African flavour burgers, each available with a beef or a chicken patty and in single, double or triple sizes. The Chakalaka Burger is the one to try if you’ve never had it, since you won’t find it at Burger King outside South Africa.
In store, an Epic Value meal costs R29.90 for a single, R39.90 for a double and R49.90 for a triple. On Mr D and Uber Eats the same meals are listed at R39.90, R55.90 and R69.90, and those delivery prices are the ones in the table below.
| Flavour Meal (beef or chicken) | Single | Double | Triple |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chakalaka Burger Meal | R39.90 | R55.90 | R69.90 |
| Chutney Burger Meal | R39.90 | R55.90 | R69.90 |
| BBQ Burger Meal | R39.90 | R55.90 | R69.90 |
Here’s the catch most people miss. These meals come with fries, but the drink is an optional add-on. A Pepsi on the delivery listing costs R27.90, which turns a R39.90 Chakalaka Burger Meal into R67.80. At that point a King Value Hamburger Meal at R48.90 is R18.90 cheaper and already includes a drink.
So the rule is simple. If you don’t want a drink, the Epic Value meals are the cheapest way to eat at Burger King. If you do want a drink, go King Value. The same logic applies to the triples: a Triple Chakalaka Meal at R69.90 is R14 cheaper than a King Value Triple Cheeseburger Meal, but the R14 King Value premium buys you a drink that would cost R27.90 on its own.
King Boxes and Chicken & Fries
Burger King now sells fried chicken pieces in South Africa, and the King Box puts a burger and a chicken piece together with fries and a Pepsi.
| King Box / Chicken Deal | Price | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Cheeseburger King Box | R97.90 | Cheeseburger, crispy chicken piece, fries, Pepsi |
| Chicken Burger King Box | R97.90 | Crispy chicken burger, chicken piece, fries, Pepsi |
| Whopper with Cheese King Box | R146.90 | Whopper with Cheese, chicken piece, fries, Pepsi |
| Crispy Chicken with Cheese King Box | R146.90 | Crispy Chicken with Cheese, chicken piece, fries, Pepsi |
| 1 Piece Chicken & Fries | R62.90 | 1 chicken piece and fries |
| 2 Piece Chicken & Fries | R90.90 | 2 chicken pieces and fries |
| Chicken Mega King Box | R349.90 | 5 chicken pieces, 3 large fries, 4 dips |
| Single Chicken Piece | R37.90 | 1 chicken piece |
Is the King Box actually a deal?
It depends which one. The Whopper with Cheese King Box saves R5.90: a Whopper with Cheese Meal (R114.90) plus a chicken piece (R37.90) would cost R152.80 bought separately. The Cheeseburger King Box does not save anything. A King Value Cheeseburger Meal (R55.90) plus a single chicken piece (R37.90) comes to R93.80, which is R4.10 less than the R97.90 box.
On the plain chicken deals, the 2 Piece Chicken & Fries at R90.90 is the better buy. Two pieces and fries bought separately cost R103.70, so you save R12.80. The 1 Piece Chicken & Fries saves only R2.90. To see how Burger King’s chicken stacks up against the chicken chains, see KFC vs Chicken Licken vs Hungry Lion.
King-Size Combos and Sharing Deals
King-Size Combos are Burger King’s family and group bundles. Not every combo number shows at every branch, so the ones below are what was listed at the time of checking.
| Combo | Price | What You Get | Per Person |
|---|---|---|---|
| King-Size Combo 1 | R100.00 | 2 cheeseburgers, fries and a drink | R50.00 (for 2) |
| King-Size Combo 3 | R335.90 | 4 Whoppers, 2 medium fries, 2 medium drinks | R83.98 (for 4) |
| King-Size Combo 4 | R363.90 | Cheeseburger, Whopper, Whopper Jr, Big King, 9pc nuggets, 2 medium fries, 2 small fries, 2L Pepsi | R90.98 (for 4) |
| Mega King Box | R350.00 | Wings (2 kinds), nuggets, onion rings, mozzarella sticks, chilli cheese bites, fries | Snacks only, no burgers |
The combo maths
King-Size Combo 1 is weak value on delivery. Two King Value Cheeseburger Meals cost R111.80 and give you two fries and two drinks, against one fries and one drink in Combo 1. For R11.80 more you get double the sides. Combo 1 has been advertised for less on Burger King’s own deals page, so it is one to buy at the counter rather than through an app.
King-Size Combo 3 has a better alternative. Four King Value Triple Cheeseburger Meals cost R335.60, which is 30 cents less than Combo 3. Instead of four single-patty Whoppers, two fries and two drinks, you get twelve beef patties, four fries and four drinks. The trade-off is that you lose the Whopper’s lettuce, tomato and bigger bun.
Combo 4 is the most varied, not the cheapest. It’s the only combo with nuggets and a 2L Pepsi, which makes it a good fit for a mixed group. If you just need four people fed for the least money, four King Value Cheeseburger Meals cost R223.60, a full R140.30 less. For more options across all chains, see our guide to fast food family meals in South Africa.
King Jr Kids Meals
| King Jr Meal | Price | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| King Jr Burger Meal | R76.90 | Hamburger, small fries, small soda |
| King Jr Cheeseburger Meal | R76.90 | Cheeseburger, small fries, small soda |
| King Jr Chicken Burger Meal | R76.90 | Chicken burger, small fries, small soda |
| King Jr 4pc Chicken Nugget Meal | R76.90 | 4 nuggets with a sauce, small fries, small soda |
This is the biggest price quirk on the Burger King menu. A King Jr Cheeseburger Meal and a King Value Cheeseburger Meal are listed with the same parts: a cheeseburger, small fries and a small drink. The King Jr costs R21 more. Unless your child specifically wants the King Jr packaging, order a King Value meal instead. The nugget meal is the only King Jr option with no direct King Value equivalent. The free toy changed in late October 2026: Hello Kitty and Friends toys replaced the Dragon Ball Super ones, while stocks last.
Burger King 2 Epic Meal Deals
Burger King’s current 2-for promotion is the 2 Epic Meal Deals: two of the same meal for one price. Burger King has not published an end date. The deals were advertised through October 2026, were showing on branch menu boards, and were still being bought in November 2026.
| 2 Epic Meal Deal | Price for 2 | Per Meal |
|---|---|---|
| 2 Original Chicken Meals | R100 | R50 |
| 2 Whopper Meals | R140 | R70 |
The Whopper deal is the standout. One Whopper Meal costs R107.90 on its own, so two bought separately come to R215.80. At R140 for two, the deal saves you R75.80. In store, the Whopper deal is made up of two Whoppers, two medium fries and two medium Pepsi Max. The catch is the same as with any 2-for deal: both meals have to be the same, so you cannot mix a Whopper Meal with a chicken meal.
Older pages list a range of 17 different 2-for burger deals at Burger King, priced from R110 to R260. That was the Taste on Fire range from 2025, and it has ended. If a site is still showing you that list, it is showing you last year’s menu.
Limited-Time Burgers on the Menu Now
Alongside the deals, Burger King runs limited-edition burgers that come and go. These are not discounts, but they are new and they leave the menu without much warning.
| Limited-Time Meal | Price |
|---|---|
| Sun-kissed Bacon Whopper Combo | R209.90 |
| Sun-kissed Bacon Crispy Chicken Combo | R209.90 |
| Sun-kissed Whopper Combo | From R181.90 |
| Crazy Cheesey BBQ Meal | R199.90 |
| Crazy Cheesey Chicken BBQ Meal | R199.90 |
| Crazy Cheesey BBQ Bacon Meal | R209.90 |
| Crazy Cheesey Chicken BBQ Bacon Meal | R209.90 |
| Double Crazy Cheesey BBQ Meal | R239.90 |
| Double Crazy Cheesey BBQ Bacon Meal | R239.90 |
| Mega Stacker Meal | R174.90 |
| Mega Stacker 3.0 Meal | R209.90 |
| Mega Stacker Bacon 3.0 Meal | R230.90 |
The Mega Stacker meals are listed as coming with a bottomless soda, so they work out better value if you eat in and use the refills. The Sun-kissed range replaced the Super Saiyan burgers at the same R209.90 price point. At around R200 and up, the Sun-kissed and Crazy Cheesey meals cost close to double a regular Whopper Meal (R107.90). They are treat orders, not value orders.
The Crazy Cheesey range, launched on 20 October 2026, also adds loaded sides: XL Dippers at R29.90, Loaded Onion Rings at R54.90 and Loaded Nuggets at R69.90.
Burger King App Coupons
Burger King South Africa offers exclusive coupons through its app and website, and these are where the deepest one-off discounts usually show up, such as a single burger or loaded fries at a heavily reduced price. Coupons change regularly, so there’s no fixed list worth printing here. Three things to know before you rely on one:
- Check the app before every order. The coupon list changes, and a deal you used last month may be gone.
- Coupons are usually for collection or eat-in at the store. Prices on Uber Eats and Mr D are set separately, and the app coupon won’t carry over.
- Many US-based coupon sites list Burger King deals like 2 for $5 or Royal Perks rewards. Those are for American restaurants and don’t apply in South Africa.
Which Burger King Special Is Best Value?

| Feeding four for the least | 4 King Value Cheeseburger Meals | R223.60 |
| Feeding a mixed group | King-Size Combo 4 | R363.90 |
How Burger King Specials Compare With Other Chains
Burger King’s cheapest full meal with a drink, the King Value Hamburger Meal at R48.90, costs more than the cheapest meal at its main rivals. The KFC Streetwise 2 is R41.90, and McDonald’s Cheeseburger Meal is also R39.90. Where Burger King pulls ahead is volume: none of its rivals sells three beef patties, fries and a drink for R83.90. For a day-of-week special, Steers’ Wacky Wednesday is still the better-known deal, since Burger King doesn’t run a fixed weekday special.

Delivery vs In-Store Prices
The prices on this page come from a delivery listing, and Burger King’s delivery prices can be higher than what you pay at the till. The difference shows most on the bundles. King-Size Combo 1, for example, has been advertised on Burger King’s own site for well below its delivery price. If you’re ordering a combo for a group, collecting it yourself is usually the cheapest way to get it. Our Uber Eats and Mr D vs in-store guide shows how much delivery adds across all the major chains.
Are Burger King Specials Available at Halaal Branches?
Many Burger King branches in South Africa are halaal-certified, including stores like Mall of Africa, Fourways Mall and Park Station in Johannesburg. Most specials are available at these branches, but expect bacon items, such as the Bacon Rodeo King Value Meal, Bacon King and the Sun-kissed Bacon Whopper, to be missing from their menus. The Texas BBQ Chicken is listed as bacon-free and available in halaal restaurants. Check with your branch, and see our halaal fast food guide for how to confirm certification.
