A classic American treat – FIVE GUYS cheeseburger with fries

The Journey FIVE GUYS is a family run burgers & fries joint offering a craveable menu made from scratch. FIVE GUYS has been a Washington, D.C. area favourite since 1986 when Jerry and Janie Murrell offered sage advice to three of the Murrell brothers: “Start a business or go to college.” The business route won and the Murrells opened a carryout burger joint in Arlington, Virginia, USA. Under the guidance of Jerry and Janie, the little burger joint quickly developed a cult-like following. Customers voted the burger “#1” in the D.C. metro area.

During the 1980s and 1990s, the Murrells perfected their simple concept. FIVE GUYS became The Place to get a fresh, juicy burger with all the toppings you could stuff between two fresh-baked buns. Two more brothers joined the team and as the family grew, so did the business. Early in 2003, Jerry and Janie, together with the “FIVE GUYS”, began offering franchise opportunities. In just under 18 months, more than 300 units had been sold.

Now, decades after FIVE GUYS first opened, there are locations across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, and soon in Australia, with planned expansion into New Zealand. By maintaining a simple ethos, coupled with the highest quality, the Murrells continue to follow through on the vision they outlined in 1986.

Their first little burger joint in 1986 quickly turned into a cult-like following around the world. Here’s why…

Five Guys Redefined the Global Burger Landscape The Murrell brothers redefined the global burger landscape by focusing on freshness and quality. With no freezers and no microwaves, it’s built on the premise that all burgers and fries are made fresh every day. The meat is a perfected 80/20 lean-tofat ratio. Patties are hand-made 7 days a week on site. The bread, which is FIVE GUYS’ only proprietary item, is baked fresh 5 days a week in a locally contracted
bakery. The same unique recipe is used globally. Potatoes are cut fresh daily, soaked to remove the starch and double-fried in pure, no cholesterol peanut oil to create the firm exterior and ‘mashed-potato’ interior that FIVE GUYS fries are known for.

Chad Murrell, comments “From the beginning, we wanted our customers to know that we put all our money into the food. That’s why the décor is so simple; only red and white tiles. We don’t spend money on décor, or guys in chicken suits. We’ll go overboard on food. By maintaining a simple ethos, coupled with highest quality ingredients, we continue to follow through on the vision since 1986”.
