Fans of the Whopper will have to wait several more weeks before a couple of Burger King restaurants in the Binghamton area reopen.

The Burger King locations on Ash Road in Vestal and East Main Street in Endwell closed a couple of weeks ago for remodeling.

The projects are part of a massive effort to spruce up the company's restaurants across the country.

According to a Burger King spokesperson, the Vestal and Endwell restaurants will feature what the company calls a "Sizzle" concept.

A new drive-thru lane will be added at the Vestal location. The Endwell site will reopen with a single drive-thru because there's no room for another lane.

Construction is expected to be completed at both locations in October.

Burger King locations on Main Street and Court Street in Binghamton are tentatively scheduled to be remodeled next year, as is a location on Front Street in the town of Chenango.

Burger King unveiled the "Sizzle" design in 2023. The remodeling provides updates of the interior and exterior of each restaurant. Drive-thru lanes are being improved and digital ordering kiosks are being installed.

The company's goal is to have most U.S. Burger King restaurants featuring the "modern image" by 2028.
