The Burger King name was already trademarked and operating in Adelaide when they tried to move into Australia.

Does anyone know where this Burger King is?

Long gone, by the sound of it:

In 1996, shortly after the Australian trademark on the Burger King name lapsed, Burger King Corporation made a claim that Hungry Jack's had violated the conditions of the renewed franchise agreement by failing to expand the chain at the rate defined in the contract and sought to terminate the agreement.

HJ's are and always have been a BK franchise.

The only reason for the name difference is (as mentioned above) at the time that the Australian franchisee tried to register the name there was a burger bar in Perth who were using the name. The Perth burger bar has long since ceased trading.

Yep. There is a long history but basically HJ is BK.

I got it slightly wrong. It should have read...

I can recall going to Burger King on Anzac Highway in the 1960s - but it's a just a hazy memory of it being in a converted service station similar to current Barnacle Bills, with girls (and boys?) on roller skates bringing food to the cars. May have been where the current HJs is at Leader Street. Their slogan was 'food and service fit for a king'.
