Five Guys orders are presented in paper bags, period. There are no trays, no "For here or to go?" questions, and for a long time, there was no delivery.
"Five Guys" was actually started and run by six guys: Jerry Murrell and his five sons. Jerry removed himself from the numerical name once his fifth son was born.
Upon your arrival at a Five Guys location, you'll be provided with salted, roasted peanuts in the shell. Fans theorize that this is to keep guests busy during cooking.
Milkshakes are pretty standard at fast food joints, but Jerry Murrell refused to add them to the menu until 2014, when the chain debuted milkshakes with a vanilla base.
Five Guys’ buns are so squishy because they were originally made by a local bakery called Brenner's. Though they’re now made differently, the squishy texture remains.
