Five Guys offers a great takeout burger. The meat is delicious and flavorful, and the free topping selection is impressive. The regular burger has two patties and, when paired with the bucketload of fries tossed in the bag, is plenty to fill me up to capacity. The fries are delicioso to the max. You can taste the difference that fresh cut potato fries cooked in peanut oil makes. They even have malt vinegar. All you can eat peanuts in the shell are a tasty treat to enjoy while waiting fir your burger. If you are in a hurry, Be sure to order online and you can skip the line!

Whenever I want a no nonsense burger with anything I can possibly think of and a ton of great fries to go along with said burger I hit 5 Guys. Its not a burger which will make you fall off your chair but then again I can only think of one burger ever that made me come unglued. Every topping under the sun… amazing what fresh jalapeño’s do to a burger. I really like this place and have even tried the bunless burger, wrapped in lettuce… I advise against this unless you wear a garbage bag over yourself or consume naked and then get hosed off.

Over-Rated. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, so it makes it all the tougher to give them a lousy review; however, you shouldn’t order a cheeseburger and feel that it has less meat then a cheeseburger at McDonald’s. I mean, seriously, where’s the beef? The cajun fries were great though and the free peanuts were a nice touch.

Good food but i had to eat in the car with my wife because it was freezing in there. People were grabbing jackets just to try to eat in there.

It’s Five Guys. An overcooked burger, allowing for some interaction and customization on the part of the customer in it’s creation. So, yeah, it’s a gimmick, but for a fast food meal, they could do much worse. Pricey, but all things considered its not appreciably more than any other burger joint. Staff is great, or at least I’ve never had any reason to complain. Five Guys is good if you’re in a hurry and don’t want the typical fast food garbage.

About as good as you can get for a fast-ish food burger! Every kept telling me I NEEDED to try a burger from Five Guys, so I finally did. It was pretty much like everyone said it would be, a really really good fast food burger with whatever toppings you could want. The facility itself is much nicer than your average fast food joint, very clean and the employees were also very friendly and efficient. Not a big fan of the fries,(which they give you a zillion of!) but still ended up eating them all! Will certainly be occasionally grabbing a burger here.

The first Five Guys I have ever been too. Parking is a nightmare. They are always crowded, but fear not, you can park next door in the banks parking lot. They wont mind, they close early. Also, parking lot is tough to get into. Traffic is disastrous in that area. Burgers are delicious and the wait is about 5 – 10 minutes, but it is worth it for fresh food. Fried are made with peanut oil so they are gluten free. They give you a ton of fries here. Staff was pleasant. If you are a burger fanatic, you must go to any five guys. If you live in Wallingford, Meriden, or Middletown. This is the one to go to.

The opening soon of the new Five Guys in Glastonbury will be a welcome addition. They have very good burgers at a reasonable price. The nationwide burger wars are heating up with several variations on the same theme everywhere. My favorite on the east coast is Shake Shack by far. Number two would probably be the new BurgerFi in Manchester. Number three would be any of the Five Guys. There are a few out there that are just plain horrible. The Counter in West Hartford for one. I would rather eat my boot. Plan B is way too expensive for what you get. I can’t remember the name of the new place in Somerset Square, but I hear they are not very good.

Great burger. I prefer it over red robin and mooyah. I order the cheeseburger with pickles, mustard and ketchup. I am not a huge lover of French fries, but these are fine. You could easily share a «little» order with 2 people.

Very over priced food there. And it’s not that great for the price. It’s a basic burger place, with the same quality as Wendy’s

Pricey so have your check book ready… but we’ll worth it. Good burger for a chain restaurant. I always have a tough time bringing my daughter though since she is not a burger fan and orders a $ 4 grilled cheese! Love all of the burger toppings available especially the jalapeños! Fries are always fresh. Way better than Jake’s Wayback. Probably won’t be back for a while but I enjoy my meal every time I visit!

The good: juicy burgers with unlimited free topping variations, overflowing serving of fries, and the cool touchscreen soda machine with so many soda flavors. The bad: not diet-friendly and it’s just down the street. Screw diet tonight. Having an affair with Five Guys instead. See ya later.

Being California natives, my wife and I have the constant battle over which is better — Five Guys or In N Out. I think it’s whichever place you aren’t at. Five Guys is great because there’s so many good options for things to add to your burger. I see that I can add peppers and grilled onions and stuff, and I’m all«Me want food.» Their fries(plain or cajun) are good and you only need a small order of them to feed your entire family and pets. Plus, hey, peanuts. Oh, and you always have to remind yourself — the regular burger is actually a double burger, and the«small» is a single burger. I have to say it as a mantra when I go so I don’t forget and have my stomach explode from a ground beef invasion.

«So: this is what a fast burger and fries is supposed to taste like.» When I first visited a Five Guys a few years ago, that’s what went through my mind, as actual flavor washed over my taste buds. At fast food prices, Five Guys delivers a tasty burger and truly superb french fries. Gourmet? No, though I’ve paid more for fries that I like a lot less. I’ll still get fast food elsewhere, but frankly, only when I’m doing that really-not-safe-but-gotta-save-time-somwhere insult to a meal called eating in the car. For a swift meal that tastes good, I’ll head to Five Guys. The four stars are in comparison to its competition, and, well, because the french fries are, in fact, amazing.

Five Burgers is quite possibly the best burger pound for pound that I’ve eaten and I often try to convince my wife and son to troop it for 20 minutes to get here. You get what you pay for and pound for pound, their burgers are filling, tasty and worth the drive every time as opposed to dishing out $ 1.00 less for say McDonald’s or Burger King or other. The fries they serve here are also hands down some of the best I’ve eaten, and I am a burgers and fries kind of guy. The average cost of my bill here varies between $ 19 — $ 25 but every penny worth it.

Went to try the burger and fries. the burger was decent but nothing exciting. i guess the hype got to me. i was really disappointed with the french fries. they gave me more than enough but didn’t t bother to drain them. My bag was completely soaked in oil and couldn’t put them in the car. i probably won’ t hurry back. .

Definitely one of the best burgers in town.. . Get your fix 11AM to 10PM, 7 Days a week. A Simple Menu– Burgers Fries and drinks, that’s pretty much it! They also have hotdogs and a veggie or grilled cheese. The veggie grilled cheese is any of the toppings(See below) on a hamburger roll with cheese for $ 2.49. Another import note is that all the regular burgers are actually DOUBLE Burgers. If you want a single patty order one of the«Little» burgers. Everything on the menu is under 6 $ so it’s inexpensive. A regular fry is the size of a large fry anywhere else because they always put an extra scoop in the bag.. . A large fry is enough for two adults and 2 kids with some left over. The Five Guys Style Fries are super delicious with the potato skins still on, deep fried in peanut oil. Mmmm good! They also have cajun style fries which are pretty hot! A chalkboard on the wall tells where todays potatoes came from. Lots O’ Free Toppings including: Ketchup, Mustard, Mayo Relish, Onions, Lettuce, Pickles, Tomatoes, Grilled onions, Grilled Mushrooms, Jalapeño Peppers, Green Peppers, A-1 Sauce, Bar-B-Q Sauce and Hot Sauce. Bulk peanuts in the shell to eat while you wait for your order. The place is real busy because it just opened. I suggest calling in your order.. .
