100 Burger King branded tote bags will also be handed out - with all the giveaways to go on a first-come-first-serve basis.
The new restaurant will open at the Cathedral end of Fargate, in the corner unit with Church Street, which has previously housed a Pret a Manger coffee shop. It sits next door to the Starbucks location and will join McDonalds, Wendy's, Greggs and German Doner Kebab on the city centre street.
In recent days, the brightly coloured Burger King branding advertising jobs, the Burger King app, home delivery and free food has been taken down - exposing the new restaurant interior for the first time.
