scoop76cs • 06/26/25 10:44 AM ET
They couldn't put it back together again. **
HokieDan95 • 06/26/25 10:47 AM ET
They're supposedly building one near me on the site of a former McDonalds
HokieNoVA • 06/26/25 09:08 AM ET

5 Guys....eat their fries and get an instant bowel prep
tallahasseehokie • 06/26/25 01:51 PM ET
In-N-Out is better than 5-Guys.

5 Guys is good, but so expensive. Then again, the wife, daughter, and

Brewing_Hokie • 06/26/25 10:52 AM ET
For sure. We wanted to hit a nicer spot, but traffic screwed us, and

I was up there last week and they’ve got signs all over promoting a meal-
Stork • 06/26/25 09:46 AM ET
That's not bad considering how much better it is than typical fast food.
reestuart • 06/26/25 09:48 AM ET
Of course I was picking up my order of double cheeseburger and large fries.**
Stork • 06/26/25 09:50 AM ET
ehh...still gonna be $15 with tax, and that's for the little burger**
JoesterVT • 06/26/25 09:49 AM ET
Can't get over the fact that a "value meal" at McDs (NOT supersized) is $11**
JoesterVT • 06/26/25 09:43 AM ET
All I know is the 3 of us went to our neighborhood watering hole, and

I quit Five Guys once they started opening finance depts in each store**
JoesterVT • 06/26/25 09:25 AM ET
But you need to take out a loan to eat there.
EDGEMAN • 06/26/25 09:25 AM ET
The one that’s bad is Freddy’s. I went up there and it was like $22. And

Is it a front for money laundering? (TIC)

Up near mall. Claim to fame are their steak burgers and frozen custard.**
Stork • 06/26/25 11:01 AM ET
Lynnhaven Mall?**
EDGEMAN • 06/26/25 11:02 AM ET
Yup**
Stork • 06/26/25 11:44 AM ET

EDGEMAN • 06/26/25 09:30 AM ET
It's been a while since I've dined there.
EDGEMAN • 06/26/25 09:28 AM ET

reestuart • 06/26/25 11:27 AM ET
Originally in the Midwest. There are a few in NC and Florida for sure.

What kind of oil do they use for their fries?**
EDGEMAN • 06/26/25 08:39 AM ET
Hot?**
