I adore five guys!
This one is a small one within the Lakeside food court, but it's very cosy and has the same sort of American diner theme as all the others I have visited (Birmingham, Kingston, Putney and Leicester Square). My visit to this one is the most memorable due to how hungry I was!
My fiance and I arrived here for 2 bacon cheese burgers, cajun fries, with a regular drink. What I love about the burgers are the free toppings! I usually have mushrooms, grilled onions and ketchup. Calories galore! But who doesn't enjoy a huge greasy burger when they have been starved all day?!
The drinks machines just fascinate me! You can pick a brand of drink, for example, Fanta. Then you can choose pretty much ANY flavour that you fancy. Which is brilliant! I love the strawberry Fanta, and the lime Coca-Cola. I can tell you now that I would not recommend the Orange flavoured Coca-Cola. It just tastes wrong.
Now the only concern I have are the fries. I have tried the normal ones and the Cajun ones. They just aren't done right. The plain ones taste like raw potato that has been fried, which just aren't nice, however, should you get the Cajun ones, there is so much spice on them and at the bottom of the packet, it just makes you cringe. This does not stop me from getting them though if I need the stomach space filling.
To summarise, as someone rightly said, who I don't remember. It is like a greasy filled heaven wrapped in foil, I may have even said it myself.
Would recommend to the burger lovers out there, big shout out to you guys. Vegetarians/Vegans, just don't even bother. read more
