King's Sandwich Shop
Phone: (919) 682-0071
King’s Sandwich Shop has been a Durham icon since 1942. Stop by this walk-up sandwich stand at the corner of Geer and Foster Streets and ask for King’s Southern Red Dog – a beef hot dog topped with King’s sauce, slaw, and homemade chili. Pair your dog with some tater tots and fried okra, and you’re good to go.

This place is just perfect. I used to work in Elizabethtown NC and I thought that the burgers at Melvin’s were the best in the world. Until I ate here… Old school drive in right next to the old Bulls ballpark. You’ve gotta try it. -
Oh my days! I was headed to a brewery/burgee spot in Durham when Kings popped up on my map and the kid said he would rather try their burger. Thanks kid! Walk up counter style burger. You cannot beat the the value of this burger in Durham. HUGE patty, thick melty cheese, plenty of toppings. Single burger of this size for under $10 is hard to find these days. (Great for hungry kids) Next time I'll try the Philly. All they need is BEER! If you're a burger hound, this is a must stop

Been wanting to go here for a long time and it didn't disappoint! Honestly could have split the cheesy bacon classic and fries and been completely full. The burger was huge and delicious! Got the chicken philly as well and really enjoyed it. Added some king's sauce to it and that made the sandwich. Had onion rings, tots and french fries. The fries were my favorite, followed by the onion rings then the tots. All 3 were good but when I go back I'm going with the fries. If you like good southern sweet tea you have to get it here. Reminds me of my grandmother's with plenty of sugar. I don't really drink that much anymore but I had to go back for a refill. The staff was awesome, friendly and so helpful. Most people that were there got it to go but we are at the covered picnic tables. No indoor seating. If you haven't been your missing out!

If you wanna a burger...this is the spot. The curb side apeal is nothing special However, the food was fresh and hot so be prepared to wait. The ONLY thing that would keep me from returning is the customer service. Being that it was my 1st time there, the young lady who takes your order is not helpful at all. She messed up my order. She wasnt very pleasant at all. The others were pretty nice.

The burger is large and good! They need to find a better person to take orders! She needs to know how to give proper info so people can order exactly what they want so people won't have to guess what's on the menu! That's why I didn't give a better grade! We enjoyed the 🍔 burgers! They were good. They have outside tables to eat. There is no indoor service. They serve you for a window. That ok. Need also to cut the grass and bushes to keep the bugs down! Otherwise, they are good.
