The food is fine and the staff is friendly but, it's been over a year and the soda machines need to be re-calibrated because the syrup to soda water ratio is way off. The soda machines dispense mostly soda wate read more

Five Guys - Soda machines at the Old Saybrook Five Guys - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

Can't handle all the way, so we have have to order all toppings individually....now we order lettuce wrap and can't tell the difference between bread and lettuce, this place is pathetic, about to cut them off completely....let the manager go now, not training, not supervising..... read more

ridiculously overpriced and not worth it. $30 for two hamburgers, a fries, and a shake.

I'm a Doordash driver, whenever i get an order to deliver from this five guys they keep me waiting for around 30 minutes while I am getting paid only 5 bucks for that delivery. So unsatisfied! read more

Five Guys - I'm waiting for them to prepare the order and writing review - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

It was ok, burgers fresh & salty fries but the soda machines do not work....90% soda water. I informed them it wasn't working and they said they check out the machine for me but when we left 30 min later they still hadn't checked it. Not sure if we'll go back. read more

Five Guys - Little Fries - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

Good food, great fries but way overpriced. 2 dogs, regular fries and sodas is $24 + Now add a couple of kids and your pushing $40. No wonder they don't post prices on the website. (Burgers are even pricier). read more

I ordered a little cheeseburger & it was the EXACT same size as a Happy Meal cheeseburger at McDonalds. Small, thin, flimsy hamburger patty. Extremely unhappy. I was very psyched about getting one of their fantastic little cheeseburgers but I give up on this location. The one in Groton was not good either. Hamburger patty was very small also. It didn't used to be such a paltry portion. I don't understand it. Really disappointed. May not be eating at 5 Guys again bc of 2 poor experiences. Smh. read more

I used to LOVE Five Guys...always full when I left without spending a fortune. The last few times I've gone, I've left disappointed. Last time I noticed the prices had gone up, and my burger bun felt and tasted rather stale. Also, we were told they had no hotdog buns for my mother's hotdog. Seriously? You are in the same shopping center as a Big Y Supermarket! Walk the 60 yards and buy some rolls to appease your customers! This week when I brought my niece and nephew there, I was appalled at the price of lunch! My niece had a plain burger with no bun and NOTHING on it, and I was charged 8.19! Are you people for real? Such a shame because I used to love going to Five Guys. The food always tasted good, service was fast, and I felt like the price was right. Those days are sadly over. read more

Five Guys - Regular Burger for $8.19 - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

The past three times I've eaten at this location the fries have been soggy. Even after I requested the fries be cooked longer they were soggy. Your fries are your signature item, please improve! Thank you read more

Ridiculously over priced. Average burger (Small burger), average fries, and 2 good shakes...$24. Are you efin kidding me?? I saw a couple teenagers in there that ordered 2 big burgers, large fries, and a shake. I'm guessing that came to about $35. Could you imagine being a teenager and paying $35 for a couple burgers, couple fries and splitting a shake?.....all made by kids Live and learn read more

I arrived at the Saybrook store at 7:45 after driving from deep river only to be told they close at 8:00. When I pointed out that it was 7:45 they said we're closed want some fries. Then made comments to each other and laughed as I walked out. I realize good help is hard to find, but I'm willing to bet you can do better than those two. read more

$5.99 for a hotdog? I don't mind paying for good food, but I've had better hotdogs for half the price. If the price gouging isn't enough, we had one employee yelling at everybody. As soon as the food was ready he would yell their number followed immediately by "come on, check your tickets people" with every single order. Everyone in the place was disgusted by this employees behavior. Give people a chance to respond, what's the rush. read more

The Good: The food tastes good, as you'd expect. The Bad: A cheeseburger and fries for $16. Sorry, but it's not that good. The Ugly: The staff was rude. Typical American youth that doesn't have any manners. It's so sad to see this happening everywhere. I don't need to overpay to be treated poorly by disrespectful kids. read more

This place made me rethink my fast food burger needs. No longer can I run to McD"s or Burger King for my quick burger fix. Although I do still miss the White Castle on East Tremont Ave. in the Bronx, I can only eat the obviously higher quality product you get at this chain. I've eaten at this location many times and the food always tastes fresher and more flavorful than the other fast food choices on the shoreline. The free peanuts make the wait for your food easily tolerable. Also, try the shakes. They are much better than average. read more

Five Guys - the inside of a fast food restaurant - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

I rarely eat beef. Rarer is when I eat beef that I don't prepare myself. We were shopping and realized that we hadn't eaten all day. A Five Guys was right down the street, so we said "Why not?" and stepped in. First - it reminded me of one of the old hamburger stands that used to be in the town in which I grew up. Right away, I felt comfortable and knew what I was going to get. Sure enough, the bacon cheeseburger "all the way" took me back to my misspent youth. I savored every juicy bite. The high-tech soda machines were the main attraction. I could have spent the rest of the afternoon trying to create my own flavor combinations, but my burger was ready and I wanted to eat it while it was hot. We decided against fries - we just wanted to put something in our stomachs, and we had an hour ride ahead of us. Fries would have filled us up and not left room for dinner I spent the previous day preparing. Maybe another time we'll try them. As a side note, this outlet was very clean and bright. That was a big plus for us. read more

Five Guys - Potatoes! - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

Gross. Shouldn't be in business. Over priced, soggy, and undercooked. Horrible food. It's burgers and fries... not that hard to figure out how to do correctly. Never again. read more

What a terrible idea this was! I had not been to a Five Guys in years...like since they first arrived to CT. Now I remember why. First. It cost $23 for a burger, fries, and soda! The bun was gross--way too soft and spongy. Burger was OK, but not a $20 burger! Fries nothing special either. The bag was soaked with grease already when the guy handed it to me. Restaurant was dirty. Strange, loud music blasting. I hope I remember this in five years when I get this terrible idea again! read more

This place sucked... It was 7:45ish and I had my bud walk in to order some cheese burgers and then I could see him storm out as I seen the employees laughing. They said they close at 8 and he pointed it out that it was 7:45. That's when he came out in a storm because we drove from deep river to there... I hope your business is a failure or find some better employees who can do the job better than the idiots there already. read more

Would not recommend this location. If you order through their website or app, you wind up having to wait an extra amount of time when you arrive to pick it up. Tried it tonight and chose curbside. They never answered the phone so we had to go in. Then to make matters worse, our order was incorrect. Save yourself the time and go elsewhere for a burger and shake. read more

Great spot to grab a burger, hot dog, grilled cheese, and more. Tons of toppings to choose from and it's 5 stars for fast food. Easily better quality toppings and meat then McDonalds, Burger King, Jake's Wayback, etc. Shakes are also very good and have a ton of different toppings to choose from. read more

My husband and I love five guys and go often. We've been to many locations but this is so far my favorite. We go out of our way to make sure we eat at this one. They are super clean, like someone is always sweeping and wiping. This is the main reason I like this one, I've been to many others and there were always peanuts and trash on the floor, trash piling out of bins and tables uncleaned. Always turned me off from the place. There staff is amazing. They're so happy and friendly and open. They never shy away and always greet you and say farewell when you leave. The Tuesday crew is my favorite. The food, of course, is great. Made to order, fries always fresh and hot and burgers juicy and filling. As long as it stays this way, we will be continuing our weekly burger trip. read more

Man do these people have the messes buffaloed. Being from Las Vegas my go to burger place is Inn n Out, but since they aren't in Connecticut, I tried Five Guys in Old Saybrook. A double burger, small fry and a chocolate milk shake cane to $19.11. (Compared to around $8.00 for the same thing at Inn n Out). Beside being a horrifyingly bad value the food wasn't that great either. The burger had good flavor, but really wasn't anything special, the fries were too salty and for over $5.00 the shake was small and not made with real ice cream. No more five guys for this guy. read more

This Five Guys gets a ONE for cleanluness. There was only one other party present. Not a single clean table avaiable at 1PM on a weekend day. FOUR stars for the food. Good, typical for 5 guys, and served in a reasonable amount of time. read more

Five Guys - Large dining area. - Hot Dogs Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

Five guys is my new favorite burger place. What a diamond ! If you haven't tried Five guys you don't know what you are missing. This place knocks it out of the park. Real American hamburgers read more

Been to five guys many times. First time I have gotten a meal that was not good. French fries were soggy with no salt and the hamburgers were sub par. A disgruntled costumer was distracting the people behind the counter, affecting how the food came out. read more

A complete disappointment! I asked for Cajun fries they gave me plain fries that were so salty I had to take every single fry and wipe it off with my napkin! I asked for sautéed onions and I got raw onions. Nobody eats raw onions! You only get one choice of cheese?? And it's only yellow American?? They are trying to be cheap so they can't offer you any quality cheeses. After all of that they want you to give a tip?? you've got to be kidding me!! Going back to "Wayback burgers" 1000% better!!! read more

First time going here and it was absolutely terrible! I went with my boyfriend and we each got a cheeseburger with fries. The cheese wasn't even melted on our burgers and our fries were so soggy that it was a disappointment. Way too much salt on them too as well as the cajun spice that they put on them (even though I asked them not to put it on). Highlight of our visit was the lady who got her burger but there was no burger, just the bun with cheese and lettuce. Ha! How do you mess that up? Such an overrated place I will continue going to Jake's Wayback burger down the street, they have yet to disappoint me and they know how to make a great burger. Only good thing about Five Guys is that they have good customer service but that is about it. read more

Went there a couple of nights ago. Placed my order, asked about how long it will be so I could run across the street for a quick errand. The errand took a little bit longer than I expected, and when I got back to pick up my order, the fries were getting a bit long in the tooth. So I asked if they could reheat them for me. Without hesitation or comment, they cheerfully whipped up a fresh batch even though I was the one who was late for pickup. It's those little things that makes for 10/10 service - I really appreciated that they didn't make me feel like a jerk. read more

Amazing fries and milkshakes. Burgers are above average but nothing special. Staff is very friendly and even give extra fries! Overall a great experience. Would go again! read more

This is the first time I have ever had one of their burgers. I've got to say it is one of the best I ever had! For a well done burger it was so juicy. We both ordered the bacon cheeseburger "all the way." We also got a regular size drink. They handed us our cups and we checked out our options at the soda "machine." It was touch screen. There were so many choices. We finally decided on on the Minute Maid peach drink. I'm glad we didn't get the fries, otherwise we would have been over stuffed. Over all a great experience! read more

The fries were over salted but I chalked that up to new staff. Still love this place and it's nice to have one near by.

This is a typical burger place . Think Johnny Rockets. You are not gonna find a salad. It's burgers ,fries , shakes , hot dogs. I was shopping near Kohls , and forgot to eat . I saw this in the parking lot an took a chance. I wanted a salad , but my husband and I shared a cheeseburger, hot dog, fries and chocolate shake. Of course a bottle of water on the side . Everything was great! No complaints. Lots of sides to create your perfect meal. read more

Fast, friendly service and a solid burger.

Walked in with a rushed greeting of "what do you want". There was no line and no need to rush. The staff was rude and in no way helpful with the menu. I would not come back to this location. read more

Anyone who says they have had a better burger someplace else.......is fibbing! I been here at least 5 times and food is perfect every time. The help is excellent also, always friendly and cheerfully. I hate only going about once a month! read more

Had a great burger with the family. Nice to see they will grill the jalapeños. Meat was fresh and not seasoned which I like. Can't stand salt and pepper on my burger. Fries were spot on too. Tried the shakes and now hooked. Manager jake was nice to help us carry stuff. Outside to table. Will be back. read more

Sometimes, when I'm out on a marathon of errands, I just need a quick fix and quite frankly, I'd prefer something more scandalous than a green juice or a handful of organic nuts from the bulk bins. A little bird recently gave me this tip. Hit up Five Guys for a plain burger on lettuce. Having never been, but heard rumblings over the years (right here on the-e-list), I indulged in my version of a food-crime involving a fresh ground, grilled cheeseburger with pickles between two iceberg leaves. Yum. Solid option for a protein quandry. Problem solved. read more

I felt sick after eating here. The burgers are overpriced and so greasy. We waited 20 minutes for our food with one person ahead of us. There were literally 15 employees standing around starring as you eat and they shout the whole time between each other. The fries are disgusting.. 2 burgers, one fry and 2 sodas were $27!! Save your money and go to jack rabbits or the monkey farm.. Way better food for half the price. Never eating there again. read more

Holy price increases! $14.00 for burger, "little fries" and drink. Burger was good as always, but the fries had an insane amount of salt.
