My friend was gracious enough to drop me off here in Greenville, SC when she is in SE West Virginia. As we pulled into the Greenville Marriott, we saw Five Guys nearby.
With that said, I debated on coming to Five Guys after a long day of travel from Honolulu the evening before. That lure of the custom burger that Five Guys knows is often inescapable. As such, I arrived here after 845pm on a brisk and quiet Thursday October night. The restaurant was relatively quiet and empty. Thankfully that they didn't close up at 9pm. The restaurant itself was large enough to hold about 35 ish people at any one time. It was relatively clean and nice ad the same time. My basic order was a cheese burger and large regular fries, since I had already purchased drinks elsewhere along the way to Greenville. The service here was weird, as most of the staff here looked like they were in high school or freshly out of it and working. The entire experience took maybe at most 15 minutes from start to finish. Too bad the location of this Five Guys wasn't closer to the Greenville Marriott. It was probably or felt like 1/4 mile walk from the hotel to the restaurant if not a lil bit more, crossing the parking lot, a grassy hill, a semi busy street that was surprisingly busy at that hour. For the most part though, the experience here at this Five Guys was uneventful. While the service was weird, it was fast, friendly, and pretty cool.
The overall experience here at this Five Guys location in Greenville, South Carolina was basic, good, and typical Fast food flavor that you've come to expect from a business like this. This order was basically a take out order and I probably wouldn't have eaten in anyway. Felt creepy dining there after 830pm especially when I'm vacationing nearby in a hotel. That ambiance was definitely not good after 830pm especially when time for closing was quickly approaching. Still, Five Guys makes up for it with its delicious offerings on its menu. It is nice to have this Five Guys in the immediate vicinity when you're staying nearby, most notably the Greenville Marriott here in Greenville, SC. The location was basically perfect. Just need to not be lazy and lounging in your hotel room and grab what you are craving for dinner that night. That basically sums that night for me. And so, if you are staying in the area and craving a juicy custom burger, consider coming to this Five Guys location in Greenville, SC. Might just be the craving talking but, the fix is very real and very delicious! For me, it was just a coincidence since I saw it on the way to the Greenville Marriott. Lucky me.
This Five Guys restaurant is located at 3935 Pelham Road in beautiful Greenville, SC. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. I would guess that credit cards are better due to the ongoing Covid 19 thing, but that's just me. As far as parking goes, there's a limited amount of parking here for those who choose to drive here. For me, I basically walked here from the Greenville Marriott, as mentioned above. Not sure about Greenville's public transportation here, but if they do, please use the correct bus routes to get you here. Five Guys is nationally known for their custom burgers. While they're certainly not cheap as to their other national completion, they stand on their own and the taste is grand. Consider Five guys if your travels include a stop here in Greenville, SC. Your stomach may thank you later.
