“Nothing beats the freshness and quality of ingredients here. The employees were super friendly & helpful and greeted everyone as they came in. Also really appreciated how clean the tables and bathrooms are. I’d eat here at least once a week if I lived closer!! Please come to Wake Forest!!“
“The greasy hamburger joint gone corporate! Everything is great about Five Guys but the price. In recent years they’ve gone to charging $10-11 and up for a single patty cheeseburger. Now the burgers are good…nah, great for a fast food chain. But as burger prices at places like Shake Shack and Five Guys approach $15, it makes me respect a place like Cookout and In-n-Out that still keep their prices sub-$10 for largely the same concept. What I can say about Five Guys is the “fresh, never frozen” claim in 100% true and it does make a difference in the burger quality. I can also respect fries which are hand cut and cooked fresh too. My personal preference are thin fries (ala McDonald’s) or waffle fries (ala Chick-Fil-A or Hardees/Carl’s Jr) but Five Guys are crunchy, a good consistency and you can tell these fries are made from actual, real potatoes. Not too salty, but not too little either.This location at Creedmoor Rd., the order taking was fast and friendly and the burger preparation time actually rivals Wendy’s wherein from order to being ready took about 10 min. If for some reason you cannot wait a mere 10 min for a quality burger you can always order ahead for pickup. I would recommend for anyone who’s sweet spot for a burger meal is “better than McDonald’s/Burger King” but not quite the “sit down restaurant” type. But prices are apt to approach there soon. By the time it costs $18-20 for a burger, plus $7 for fries it’s time to hop over to an Outback or something for the better value.“
“One of my favorite to visit. The food and service is what’s good. Came into tonight and it was fairly busy. The team handled it very calmly and smooth, and worked beautifully as a team. Even had a team member who came in on an unscheduled shift and offered to help out. The manager communicated amazingly with his team, and everyone was upbeat and smiling. Loved the energy. Will definitely start coming here more after what I witnessed tonight. Thank you for the delicious food as well!“
