Burger King is bringing several “fiery” and “adventurous” new items to menus for a limited time this summer, all of which were inspired by the new live-action film How to Train Your Dragon.
On Wednesday, the beloved burger chain revealed its chefs developed a new menu that offers a “trip to the Isle of Berk” in each bite. The “fire-breathing” partnership with Universal Pictures brings four “dragon-inspired takes on fan-favorite items” to menus for a limited time beginning later this month, according to a press release.
The limited-time offer features a revamped Whopper, spicy Mozzarella Fries, and two “adventure”-filled treats, including a seasonal lemonade and ice cream sundae.
-
Dragon Flame-Grilled Whopper – The star of the show features a 1/4 lb of flame-grilled beef served on a red-and-orange-marbled bun colored with natural spices and vegetables, topped with American cheese, crispy bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, pickles, ketchup and mayo.
-
Fiery Dragon Mozzarella Fries – In addition to bringing the flame, BK is bringing the heat with Fiery Dragon Mozzarella Fries, featuring melty mozzarella cheese, peppers and Fiery Calabrian chili pepper-breading for the perfect fiery snack served in a one-of-a-kind Toothless-inspired carton.
-
Soaring Strawberry Lemonade – Soar to new heights and quench your thirst for adventure with the all-new Soaring Strawberry Lemonade, made with real fruit juice.
-
Viking’s Chocolate Sundae – Finish the adventure with Viking’s Chocolate Sundae, a delicious sweet treat featuring a vanilla soft-serve with HERSHEY’S® chocolate syrup and black & green cookie crumbles.

“At BK, we love to bring partnerships to life that create an awesome experience for families. Our new collaboration with How to Train Your Dragon is going to be fun for both kids and kids at heart,” Joel Yashinsky, CMO of Burger King US&C, said in a statement. “Our team has created a delicious menu inspired by the beloved characters and themes of this exciting new movie that brings that experience to Burger King restaurants.”
So far, fans agree, with food blogger Markie_devo joking in a May 21 Instagram upload, “I’d train my Dragon to go through the drive thru at Bk for me.🐉🍔🍟.”
“I would like one of everything,” a second quipped before others praised the collab as “so cool” and “cute.”
“Can’t wait to try it,” someone else declared.
“I hope they reveal what the toys will be,” one more admitted. “So far it seems Europe is getting paper puzzle toys where you can build the dragons,” they added, noting that they were “really hoping we get actual figure toys/plastic.”
The “awesome” new meal will be available at participating Burger King locations beginning next Tuesday, May 27, ahead of the release of the new film, which soars into theaters on Friday, June 13.
