About Five Guys

Five Guys is a fast food restaurant located on Wellington Rd in the White Oaks neighbourhood of London, Ontario. It serves the local community with a menu centered on made-to-order burgers, hand-cut fries, and high-quality shakes. The establishment emphasizes the use of fresh ingredients, noting that toppings are prepared every morning. Specific menu highlights include a chocolate shake blended with REESE’S Peanut Butter Cups and a variety of toppings for shakes. The restaurant also provides catering services for groups and offers merchandise, such as wearables, through its online shop. The business was founded in 1986 by Jerry and Janie Murrell, who opened a small carry-out burger joint in Arlington, Virginia, after their three sons chose to start a business rather than attend college. Over the following decades, the Murrell family refined their concept, expanding to include sit-down seating and eventually offering franchise opportunities in 2003. The company describes itself as being driven by an obsessive focus on quality and consistency. In addition to its food service, the restaurant features a focus on music, featuring staff-curated Spotify playlists and featured artists. Customers can place orders online or through a mobile app.
