Five Guys Burgers and Fries

I don like this fat burger

LOVE five guys! Best burgers, good fries, and free peanuts! The workers are always polite and friendly as well! :)

Good burger, inadequate bun, great fries, nice soft drink selection, good condiments, good service, But $ 13 bucks for a burger, small fries and a soda???
I think I can do better for the price.

On point every time. Burger meat tastes delicious. Could be a little better put together though. Either way you can’t go wrong.

burgers are always good. as others have said, they are usually a well-​placed mess. place is usually pretty clean and the staff is pretty friendly. it can add up quickly but a medium fries can be enough for two people

Big disgusting mess of a burger and they taste amazing for it. A regular burger, is a double burger and the fries don’t even seem to stop.
if you just want to hog out and screw the consequences and order a burger, large fries and a soda. You’ll love it while you eat it, and hate yourself afterwards; but in a good way?

Oooh, this place is Sooo good. The burgers are all well done but still are so juicy that they taste wonderful. Burgers have lots of custom toppings. French fries are from real potatoes and taste wonderful. You can’t oh wrong with this ave if you like burgers and fries. I like to eat healthier, but you can’t beat this place for a change of pace.

LOVE Five Guys. I always saw this place when I visited Michael’s but never really paid it any mind. I’ve known friends who went there and said it was good but no one ever RAVED about it, so I was never really worried about trying it until I saw a You Tube video of a guy who does Video reviews of Fast Food places and he made me want to try (Five Guys you can thank him later).
I loveeee it, the burgers are hot, fresh and served in a brown paper bag. The fries are also put in a bag, and I love that they are also hot and fresh. One of the things I love best (besides the free peanuts while you wait) is that it’s made to order and all topping are free.
I highly recommend this place!

Absolutely great burgers the fries are made to order cut fresh free peanuts all you can drink sodas an juice bet you’ll like it!

Stopped by for dinner after work and shopping at Target and feeling drained. What perked me up was remembering the french fries and the bottles of malt vinegar and not really being a red meat eater, the veggie option. My friend wanted to come here for the cheese burger and loved her little cheese burger and fries. I ordered veggie sandwich with cheese (also can order without cheese). It was a sloppy sandwich of goodness, veggies and cheese oozing out. Delicious and filling. The soda machine is new and places are getting these type of machine with 100 choices. So I had the Diet Barq’s. Very tasty. This is a nice treat, every once in awhile!

Over the years, I’ve fallen in and out of love with other burgers/​burger joints, but I’ve always come back to Five Guys. Mostly the free toppings, but now also because of the «little» fry that actually contains a manageable amount of fries for one person.
This Five Guys stands out because of the Coke Freestyle machines (these are in short supply and I’m like a kid in a candy store when I find these) and the incredible customer service. Seriously, never before seen such friendly and helpful employees at a burger joint. Biggest con is that not all of the soda syrups are stocked in the machine every time.
PLUS, Five Guys always has great (ie, classic rock) music playing in the background, which tickles my fancy, of course.

Only one other burger place compares and that’s shake shack. When I’m in the mood for great food and large belly-​filling portions five guys is the place to go. With the free peanuts to top it all off it’s impossible to go home hungry. I do wish they served some sort of ice cream though.

After living in NYC for a year and having Shake Shack as my go-​to, I was really wondering if Five Guys was really as great as I thought it was when I lived back in Philly– and it still is!
It’s a «disgusting good burger.» No, I don’t mean like McD’s where the contents are questionable, but like just a good burger for what it should be.
There are a lot more pretenders out there, trying to make the burger «gourmet» or «healthy». We all know that this doesn’t exist. Gourmet to me is like the Peter Luger burger or the Village Whiskey burger but that’s about it.
Why people compare this to In-​and-​Out or Shake Shack or McD’s, is beyond me. This place stands on its own with basic burger that comes with 2 patties, free toppings even sauteed mushrooms, and fresh cut fries.
I love Five Guys because it doesn’t pretend to be what it’s not. A burger is a burger, and this place hits spot.

I used to go to Five Guys a couple times a month when I lived in NY, and I always loved it. But its been a while since I’ve been to one. Went to this one tonight, and wasn’t impressed. The burger was as good as I would expect, but I feel like the prices have gone up, and one of the great things about Five Guys was always the excessive amount of fries they gave you. This one didn’t go big on the fries, and though the staff was nice, they were slow, especially considering it wasn’t busy.

so greasy and so heavy. Makes you feel terrible physically and makes you judge yourself harshly for allowing yourself to eat this slop. Ugh.
Go to Bobby’s Burger Palace.

I’m judging myself for liking this place so much. But I won’t let it stop all of you Unilocal citizens to stop by here.
The service, speed and quality all are exceeding expectations at this location. I can’t do the whole burger with two patties so I always get the little burger with just one pattie. It’s perfect. Fries are so fresh and delicious whether it’s regular or seasoned. The soda machine… this is where all the fun lies — so many options!!! I always get diet fanta (I know, why diet?) with peach flavor. It’s so good!
Service.that’s what I’m most impressed with. I am always greeted with smiles and there’s one employee (short, female employee) who seems to be expediting most of the time when I’m here and she is so pleasant! Always cleaning up the floor, asking people how everything is and making sure all the customers are getting their food in a reasonable time. I am so impressed with her!!!
Anyways…
I get five guys whenever I feel like I can’t handle my life anymore. And you know what? It works.

I’ve been to Five Guys a number of times. You have also probably been there a number of times. They have a damn good roadside-​type burger. Skinny patties, soft mashable bun — hold on — why am I describing this to you — you’ve been there before. Very good fries, with which they are NOT stingy — they fill your fry container and then scoop extra into the bag.
So three stars? Why only three stars? Because when taking my first bite at a slightly greasy Five guys table, as my feet slide around on a slightly greasy Five Guys floor, I kind of wish I was at Shake Shack and Bobby’s Burger Palace. There should be a way to give 3.75 stars. Then I’d give Five Guys 3.75 stars. Apparently I feeling guilty about only giving them 3 stars.

Five Guys is what a burger joint should be. Simple, clean, and flavorful.
I first experienced FG in DC while on visit to a friend in college a few years back. When they opened a Philly location, I lost my mind. Everything is fresh. The meat isn’t frozen, the lettuce is hand washed and cut fresh, and the fries aren’t more than 5 – 10 minutes old. They know how to deliver on food quality. Customer service is pretty high. They rock. If you order pick-​up, they make you feel like a king when you arrive. You’ll understand when you order.
The only reason they don’t get that fifth star: location. I hate the Bala Cynwyd shopping center. Because it’s a strip mall, this location closes fairly early. Boo to that, I say!

I haven’t been here in awhile to ingest the artery clogging burgers that are Oh so bad for you ! But, taste Oh, so good ! During my most recent visit, (yesterday afternoon) I was very pleasantly surprised to see that things looked cleaner than usual. For awhile, this place was messy and obnoxious and a bit much for me to take in.
It was also more quieter when I walked in. Five guys is usually noisy & can get a bit crowded. So this is how Five Guys works. You walk in order your food & drinks at the register. You can stay or take it to go. You can either wait for your food or sit down have a drink, some peanuts & wait for your order number to be called.
You then pick up your bag of grease, sit down & consume it. I recommend trying the Cajun Fries if your stomach can handle the spice. If your a vegetarian, they do have grilled cheese, & veggie sandwiches. I do not recommend coming here if you have food allergies however.
If your in your sweats or bummy clothes & your in the mood for a burger that is a bit more high quality then your local fast food then you should stop in.
Parking here is easy to find there is a huge parking lot. This burger place is in a small shopping center by the acme, olive garden etc., Parking can get chaotic but, finding a spot is usually relatively easy.

I grew up in this area and me and my high school friends would always rush here for our lunch break and it was great.
However, 3 years later, coming back from college, the place has changed. It is awful! I have added some photos of this 5 Guys and it is terrible. Everything was unbelievably messy (piles of trash and peanuts all over the place) the trashcan look liked it had overflowed hours ago.
Worse yet, I went at night and there were very few people there YET it still took a long time for me to get my food (which they messed up… all I wanted was mustard and lettuce!)
The people that worked there seemed tired and disconnected.
They only plus is me and my sister got to bond with some other people waiting for their food on the terrible condition of this place.
I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because it never use to be this bad but it is unbelievable that the people working there let it get that bad!
