Five Guys

Just discovered today that there's a Five Guys in Manchester, NH. Until today, all I knew was the nearest one was in Dedham, MA., quite a haul for a good burger. A bit pricey, but worth it.

There's a lot of grease in their gut bombs, but every once in a while, they're good. Amazing fries, and peanuts while you wait (which will be for quite some time).

Yeah, drove by it a couple months back, and was shocked. I don't think they advertised much around here, just opened one day.

The cajun fries are ridiculously good. Always remember to never order a large unless you're feeding an army.

So true. When I went to Pittsburgh, I went to Five Guys and ordered the large fries. I can put away a lot of food, but I need some help from my fiance to finish the large fries. The burgers were awesome though and the wait actually wasn't too bad. I still like In -N- Out Burger better though, but Five Guys is excellent.
 
Re: Five Guys

only been to the one in dedham, but i think its overrated from all the buzz on here. there is also rarely a wait, so maybe that is saying something.

the burgers are much better than the fries. you want good fries, find curly's on the boardwalk in wildwood new jersey.

Your heart thanks you. :D

5 Guys was started in the Virginia suburbs of DC and there are many in the area including one about a block west of the Verizon Center on H Street.

Yeah, there are a ton of them in NoVa. I can't imagine what they look like without all the Washingtonian Magazine "Best Of" pages in the foyer.

I suspect that because they are now a chain, they aren't eliigble for those awards anymore. Otherwise it seems odd that they would brag about a series of awards that doesn't include recent years.
 
Re: Five Guys

Good burgers, at least in comparison to McD's/BK/Wendy's. There's one near me in Brooklyn; good thing it's not really on my way home from work or I'd go there more often than I do.

My wife and I ate at the one on H Street a couple weeks ago when I was in DC for business. Good burgers and very generous fries. I think I'd still take In-and-Out first, but Five Guys is good. Thankfully we have both here in Tempe.
 
Re: Five Guys

I've had Five Guys once, and In-N-Out once. Not sure that's enough of a sample size to formulate an opinion other than they both are much better than McD/BK/etc. I just checked and there are two Five Guys in the Cities, one in St. Cloud, one in Duluth and one in Fargo. Of course, the nearest In-N-Out is in Utah...

One of the ones in the cities is in Edina. Been there many times for lunch. Good stuff. Still prefer Lion's Tap though. :)

I used to work at Braemar when I lived in Hopkins about 13 years ago... Never made it to Lion's Tap. I'll be down for a Twins game in ~ a month; maybe I'll stop by one, or both!
 
Re: Five Guys

I had five guys when I was down in DC area last year and it was fantastic.

I have one located about 30 minutes from my apartment in Saratoga and I've been there once so far.

Definitely enjoy the Cajun fries as well GLM.

There is also a Meathouse located in that same plaza. I dont know if anyone has ever heard of it or been to one but their marinades, meat, and homemade dips are top notch.
