Five Guys Burgers and Fries

Posted on 10. Aug, 2010 by Johnnie in Foods, Kid Friendly, Quickie Lunch

This place reminds me of a small town 50’s burger joint where we would go after school.

Red and white-checkered posters and decor along with a short order menu, burgers wrapped in foil and put in paper bags all added to the feel of a time gone by.

What was different was the fresh made to order food that Five Guys served up.  I will say that I didn’t understand the menu lingo at first, but the person taking our order explained everything to us.  I guess she could tell we were new to this burger joint.  We both had the “little hamburger”, a full size burger with mayo, mustard, ketchup, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, grilled onions and grilled mushrooms.  You can add additional items for an extra charge, but we really didn’t need any more.  We also split a regular fries which was plenty for us, but you can get a large fries if you are really hungry. Our burgers were very juicy and all our food was very fresh.

The menu also offered hot dogs and a few sandwiches for those who aren’t in the mood for a burger.  The only thing missing to make this a real blast from the past was the jukebox and the ice cream shakes.

Five Guys is open 7 days a week from 11AM to 10PM.
