The lowest ranking of the Five Guys I've been to. Â And why can't I go the full four stars?
* The noise level that other reviewers have mentioned.
* Not the cleanest Five Guys, probably due to the mall traffic.
* There's this condescending streak to the person working the cash till, who, no matter how many times she sees us, and she's seen us loads, feels the need to mention the large fries serve 4 people. Â We KNOW. Â We go on a hunger strike just so we can HAVE the large fries.
* Sadly, they're limp most of the time.
* Too many times I've received a burger that, according to their policy, was supposed to be well done. Â Okay, then why is it still pink in parts on the inside? Â No it's not a "Why did my burger 'Moo' when I bit into it?" but still . . . egh!
* They've run out of ketchup multiple times.
* Now it's starting to happen to the malt vinegar.
* No freestyle Coke machine compared to the Geneva and Bloomington locales.
Still, it's closest to the notsurewhat's when visiting, and it's better than no Five Guys less than an hour away at all.
Five Guys is basically the east-of-the-Mississippi answer to In-N-Out, but it doesn't quite meet their standard. Â The fries are a refreshing change from fast-food fries, as they appear to be cut straight from real potatoes without additives (and yes, a small fry is easily shared by two people). Â The burgers aren't bad, but I wish they would actually melt the cheese onto the patties and toast/fry the buns a little bit. Â The bacon on the baconburgers is thin and crispy and not worth the extra price.
My biggest complaint is the noise--the space is basically a tiny warehouse, and it echoes every sound like an aircraft hanger. Â It doesn't help that people drag their metal chair legs across the hard tile floor with no apparent awareness of how painfully harsh the sound is.
If you can't get to an In-N-Out, this is better than nothing.
The best burgers in Indy, I would go as far as saying the best burgers on the planet. This place does not feel like a chain, even though they are.
One of the few times a limited menu is welcomed. They have burgers, fries and hot dogs, that's it, but what they do, they do extremely well.
Tip: Two people can easily split a small fry. Four people can split a large fry. The do not hold back with their potatoes, and all are freshly cut and fabulous!
I have been to In N Out and think they are Great, one of the Best, but you can't get In N Out in Indiana! On the other hand Five Guy's is here and you can get a Great burger & fries in Noblesville!!! I'm not a fan of chains and Five Guys is a chain. So I have to allow myself so room to move on this point and to say Five Guys is doing it right and when a chain can do that then I will go and enjoy a Great Burger! My 1st experience with Five Guys was in DC at the 1st Five Guys, and the burger here is as good as that one was!!! The name fast food should be good food served fast!!!
Don't pass up a chance to have a good, fresh, and very tasty burger and fries the next time you are in the mood, try Five Guys! The burgers are made to order and the beef has never been frozen ( and you can tell) and the same go for the fries!
IN N OUT is great but so is Five Guys, Give them a try!
Remember to eat well and to live well! And please no chains (at least most chains)!
