Starting a couple of days early. For 2026, I'm going to make an earnest effort to put up Instagram posts. I will link to those here for qualifying restaurants just to build up the site. To qualify, I must have been to the restaurant at least twice (in at least two different years) to ensure consistency. and I'm not counting large chains. Small regional chains will be included. Oh, and I must like it too :-). Otherwise the link will go straight to the review from here.
Latest visit: Oct 2023 (Colorado Springs - Interquest) First visit: Jan 2007 (Reston, VA) Locations: 49 states + DC. Only Alaska is missing. There are 30 in Colorado (4 in the Springs). That's +3 from last year. Texas has 68 (our former locale of Southlake is closed, so Hurst would have been the closest). There are 123 in California which is their largest state presence. The original Reston location that I first went to is still going. In what appears to be a recurring theme, I state each year this will be my last visit to Five Guys. Only to return anyway. This year's excuse is I wanted to try their new location, which very recently opened up close to our house. This is definitely the closest we've ever lived to a Five Guys - even the Reston location was further from my office at the time. And I thought maybe it would make a good choice for a weekday lunch while working from home, thus putting Five Guys back into the rotation. I put that idea to the test here this Saturda...
