Over 8$ for a single patty now! The food is good but not that good! Our bill was $30 for 2 little cheeseburgers, one small Cajun fry and 2 soft drinks. Had to check a few tables before finding one that was clean enough to eat at. They still offer the free peanuts. Plenty of parking available in the lot. Will probably just grill at home with these prices. read more

They have gotten really stingy with the fries. I thought it was a one off because they used to be very generous with fries but the last 5 times I've been, it's just enough to fill the cup. Nothing extra. Nothing at the bottom of the bag. The extra fries kind of justified the outrageous prices but now I have to go to another location to see if it's a new business practice across the board. They should consider disabling the online/app ordering option when they are understaffed. It's inconsiderate to the customers that have already paid and timed pickup only to discover their order will not be started until they arrive with a 10-15 minute wait. The burgers don't miss. I've not had a bad burger from this place in the years that I've patronized this location. The employees have always been nice and change their gloves regularly (bonus points). The dining room is usually clean when fully staffed but my last visits there were shells on the floor, but the tables were clean and so were the countertops and condiments areas. read more

Five Guys - Slow Saturday but fast fresh food! - Burgers Near Me - Fairlawn, Ohio

Every once in a while, I get a taste for a burger and fries. Five Guys is the only place that I crave then I get this taste. I've taken my kids here twice on Friday nights to satisfy that craving. I get two patties, cheese, and sauteed mushrooms and onions. I love the burger - it's perfect to me. The fries are also excellent. I like the mix & match fountain drinks too. My kids eat and we have good conversation. The staff is efficient and friendly. No complaints. This is good stuff. read more

To expensive to enjoy A+ burgers and fries. For the cost, we now treat it as a special dinner. SS goes only so far. Need money to buy plants. read more

Note to File: My final visit to any Five Guys 8/30/2017 Where is the manager? This was absolutely the worst experience I've ever had at Five Guys. This place is flirty and believe me the staff had plenty of time to mop the floors, wipe the tables and condiment counter and empty the trash cans. I think the "heyday" of this franchise has come and gone. Never Again! read more

Five guys has GREAT burgers. I like mine loaded. The fries are amazing. I have yet to understand why they don't have onion rings because they would be AMAZING! This location is in a terrible spot traffic wise so come early or late! read more

Door dashed food from here last Saturday . Food was hot and delicious !! Great job!! Will definitely order again .

They used to be very generous on fries portions Now they verily give you what you paid for Expensive yes but that flavors are much better then competitors read more

Great food and small menu. However, prices seem to have increased in the last few years. This location is not in the least pedestrian friendly: there are no sidewalks at all and I had to walk through a bush to get to the Taco Bell next door. read more

Was pleasantly surprised with my experience here. Fries were abundant and very good. I like that they offer a grilled cheese. Food was very good, service took a while but it's understandable. Outdoor seating was plentiful and clean. read more

I love their burgers! Anytime we are in a hurry, this is my go to place. The little cheeseburger is big enough for most people and a little fry is more than enough for one person. You must try this place read more

This five guys gets five stars!!!!! I went here to treat my vendor for lunch. I ordered eight burgers all of them completely different with so many twists and turns I was certain they would get something wrong. Mind you this is a carry out that I'm delivering to my vendor. I forgot to ask them to put names on each one so that each was easily identifiable but they were 10 steps ahead of me. They numbered them in the order I ordered them off of this sheet of paper I handed them and placed them in bags in numerical order. I didn't check the order as I didn't have all day to inspect all these sandwiches with the many different toppings. I just grabbed the order which took less than 15 minutes to fill during a busy lunch hour and darted off to fill some hungry bellies. There want one mistake!!! Everything was perfect and tasted awesome. One of the guys called me the next day saying the food was so good he was have five guys again the next day. read more

So, the toppings are fresh and I love the fact that you can order just about any combination of them that you like. But the place has a "death stench" that I can only imagine is the smell of an E-coli army fighting a platoon of colons. And the grease from the limp, soggy fries literally dissolves the paper bag that they come in. So gross! That said, 5 Guys still serves a hamburger that is better by several orders of magnitude than that abortion that they run out to you straight off the heat lamp at Swensons. Because I needed to reserve a one star rating for that pig trough, two stars for 5 Guys seems fair. You can get a better hamburger and fries at any and every place that serves bar food and it will not take any longer or be any more expensive. read more

Good food terrible workers. Even the so called manager Jose. What a joke. I have never seen a manager so goofy in my life. They need training on how to talk to customers flat out. I will take my money elsewhere!! Thank God for options! But karma will be back. read more

Five Guys - I enjoy a delicious cheeseburger and fries. I also captured this unsolicited endorsement from another customer. - Burgers Near Me - Fairlawn, Ohio

1st time eating at 5 guys, beats In&Out hands down. Quick service really clean, I got a cheeseburger with everything. Bun was soggy with all the stuff on it, just discarded it and ate the rest, used all the napkins! Fries were good and crisp and enough for two people, liked the free peanuts! read more

I haven't been able to make it to the Five Guys location in Chicago since it opened up, so I was glad to see this place opened a store in Akron last time I visited home. All in all, it wasn't that bad. The burgers were greasy. The fries are fresh cut and greasy. They have a never-ending supply of (free!) peanuts all over the store. An added bonus is that all of their toppings are free so be sure to load up your burgers. The service was fairly quick but the place was hopping so I expected at least a few minutes of wait. The only thing that confused me was the menu. I know I could have asked for clarification on the burgers but, because the place was packed, I didn't want to be "that customer" that holds everyone up. If you order a 'hamburger' or 'cheeseburger' keep in mind that it is TWO patties, not one. Had I known this, I would have ordered the 'little hamburger' and 'little cheeseburger', which is only one patty. I was so full after I ate my meal that I could hardly move most of the night. I was also a little bummed out that they posted signs EVERYWHERE informing customers not to take peanuts out of the store due to "food allergies". I understand the point but I could have bagged a ton of peanuts for future snacking. A regular burger, side of small fries, and a medium drink ran me around $8. Most of my friends think this is expensive for a burger, fries and drink but if you really think about it it's not too terribly far off from most fast food places. I recommend stopping in - bring your appetite! read more

Honestly I don't know what some these complaining yelpers are talking about. This is literally the best burger place I ever been to. I eat burgers all over the world, in many major cities . Nothing compares to 5 guys. This one in Fairlawn especially. Fresh meat, fresh bread baked daily and all fresh delicious ingredients. If they ever dipped in quality or closed down I would cry. There really isn't a close second anywhere in Ohio. Real talk. read more

Not ready when it was supposed to be. Nobody seemed interested in helping the one girl who was doing all the work. I deleted the app and will no longer order from here. It took 25 minutes to make a burger? I can make a steak at home for the same price and in less time. read more

Haven't been here for a while because of past bad experiences. First time I went there the burger/fries were decent. Next time the burger was good but the fries were gritty, as if they hadn't been washed properly before frying. Next time the fries were great but the burger was very greasy, like if the grill wasn't hot enough or needed cleaning. So I've been bypassing 5 Guys for a year or two, but after hiking the Metro Parks last Saturday I decided to give them another try. No one was in line when I entered, but by the time I finished ordering there were about five people behind me, so lines form fast. Wait wasn't too long as my burger was custom prepared. I got the single patty cheeseburger ($4.99) plus small fries ($2.49). Approaching $7.50, I expected my meal to be a large step up over other fast burger joints. Sorry to say, it wasn't. The fries were great. Hot, just enough salt, and just enough grease. But really, it's not that difficult to prepare great fries if starting with decent potatoes, a properly hot deep fryer and the proper cooking time. And for $2.49 they were not overpriced for the amount you get. If rating fries alone, they would get a very high score. The burger was where I was disappointed. The meat was a step up over almost all other fast food burger places and that's a plus. (I refuse to eat at McD's or Ralley's because of the awful quality of the meat.) Patty was probably a third pound, and it would have been good if it hadn't been stretched out to fill a rather large bun. Flattening the meat allows it to be cooked faster but usually causes it to be overcooked. And mine was. Not juicy. No flavor. Tasteless. I like the extras available to choose from, but the beef should be the centerpiece of the burger. For the price, unless you are in a hurry or don't want to "sit down," there are too many other good places to have a really good burger. Perhaps I'll try them again in a few years. Next time I am in the area and in need of food I will probably go across the street and, for less money, eat at Chipotle. read more

Good food, good fries, good meals. You will not get sick here, run well and delicious.

Akron is a burger town. Swenson's and Skyway rule the night for anyone hungry. Burgers here are like those crazy Chicago hotdogs or the thin folding pizza in NYC. So, I was skeptical when this national chain showed up an eigth of a mile from the 'secret' Swensons tucked back on the other side of the street. Another gimmick: giant burgers with unlimited toppings and fresh cut fries. People yelling orders. Everyone being hustled through to make room for the next customers. I went with my friends and it was pretty good. First the bad: you have to know what you want before you even go through the door. The gimmick is that its so good you have to hurry up. But then you order like you're at skyway. A couple of burgers, some fries and a coke. You shuffle along and get your bag of food. WTF? It weighs six pounds. You realize that a Five guys burger is gigantic and loaded with everything good. Mushrooms, onions on and on. Its like a fast food garbage burger from Max and Erma's. You have enough food to eat for a week. It might not be as good or as Akronish as Swenson's but if you're really really hungry this place will put you to bed. If you like those county fair fries with the skins on them, you'll like the fries here. If you'd rather have those perfection fries from Swenson's skip the five guys fries. Youy won't need them. You're gonna do about 4500 calories on the first burger alone. Burp. read more

I ordered a little cheeseburger with a good amount of toppings. I also ordered a little fry and regular sized Dr. Pepper. The food was good. The place was clean. A bit more expensive compared to competitors, but a good experience overall. read more

This place has great burgers! Love the fries! I got the little cheese burger and my boyfriend got the regular! Very fast service!

Always crowded, but well worth it. I love their food - best burgers out there.

Great burgers. Hate that the only portion of fries that they offer is made to be shared. 600 calorie per fries serving is crazy. The five guys don't seem to think that a single person might eat out and want fries with a burger. Update- They now offer three sizes of fries! The small is still a huge portion but much better priced. read more

Not impressed, and time ordering pick up and the bun is soaked in grease. You can not enjoy it because it falls apart.

After completing 4 orders after mine, I alerted the staff that I still had not received my order (which was a regular Cajun fry). It wasn't until then that the staff started preparing my order. read more

My first time at this place was yesterday and I won't go back. Is it a requirement that burgers come with tomatoes and lettuce, even if you don't ask for it? Because if I wanted to eat a salad, I wouldn't have gone to a burger joint. I asked for mustard, ketchup, lots of pickles, and grilled onions. I got two slices of tomato, a handful of iceberg lettuce bits, grilled onions (chopped in half-inch pieces that fell out everywhere), and a few pickles. The meat was two thin patties that had had all the juice and flavor pressed out of them on the grill. It was a horrible burger. The fries... They were so salty I couldn't eat them. There were also a ton of them crammed into the bag, forcing me to dig through them to find that awful burger. Salt all over my hand. I threw the fries away. The only good part was being able to mix my own Coke product with the flavor I wanted, diet, caffeine-free, etc. That was fun, but not worth going back to this place and giving them my money. You want an excellent burger? Go to Swenson's. read more

Best burger joint in Akron/Cleveland. I've been to them all and theirs are far the best burgers around.

I have never have an issue at this certian Five Guys establishment. The Gourmet Burger Creators always friendly. I never had a Horrible or mediocre service. The fries are always excellent everytime we order. Great Job Fairlawn Team. read more

The people here are incredibly friendly and the food is superb. Five guys in Fairlawn is our goto "what do you want for dinner" answer.

Immaculate burgers every time. The meat is delicious, the fries are like no others, the service is fast and friendly, and you get to eat peanuts while you wait. All the toppings you can think of can be put on your burger or dog for no extra charge and one order of fries satisfies 2-4 people. They may not have a lot of variety, only making burgers and hot dogs, but they do it so well, you wouldn't ever care. read more

Five Guys used to have thick juicy burgers. My last trip to this location resulted in an expensive thin dry patty. I could have done better and cheaper at McDonalds, which isn't saying much. This is my last trip to Five Guys. read more

It was the best burger I've had in years and I'm old. Will differently be going back for more. I got a double cheese burger with almost the house on top it seemed like when I saw it finished. When I sat to eat it, I opened it up and the 1st thing I said to my friend was I should have gotten their single. Wow, it was like stacking 2 Big Mac. It takes both hands and then I had to squeeze it together just so I could take a bite. And the fries were fresh cut and hot, yum. It was a great lunch, a little pricy but I did take almost half of my burger home for later. read more
