Here’s a little #FiveGuysFriday fun fact for you: Five Guys’ initial $70,000 in startup funds was meant to pay college tuition for Jerry and Janie Murrell’s (at the time) four sons. However, in 1986, they sensed their oldest children were on the fence about heading off to college, so they offered them an alternative — using the tuition money to launch a family burger joint. Now, over 20 years after Five Guys first opened in Arlington, Virginia, there are more than 1,000 locations nationwide and over 1,500 units in development.

Five Guys Burgers and Fries strives to offer the utmost quality of toppings for any burger, hot dog … or, yes, you guessed it, milkshake! Patrick Cudahy bacon is smoked for 15 hours over natural Apple-Wood chips in the original, five-story rotary smokehouse built in 1888. It’s a tradition-rich process that we love, one that ensures one-of-a-kind quality and flavor. Best-in-class bacon may cost more, but when it tastes this good, it’s well worth a little extra. Try adding some to one of our hand-spun milkshakes today! You won’t regret it.

Q: Why does Five Guys only serve burgers cooked well done? A: By cooking all of our burgers juicy and well done we are able to achieve two goals: 1.) Ensure a consistent product. 2.) Meet or exceed health code standards for ground beef. We understand that there are varying opinions on what level a burger should be cooked for optimal flavor, and our opinion is that our burgers taste best cooked juicy and well done.
