Last weekend, the burger lovers of Dublin were sent into a right tizzy when Five Guys hinted that it would be opening a new branch in the capital to go with its hugely popular outlet in the Dundrum Town Centre.

The American chain has been a massive hit since arriving in the capital in October 2016 and while the new location was not revealed in the post, it’s now become apparent that it will be situated on George’s Street in the city.
Just as @boojum_dublin open on George’s Street, I see close by in the old Dunnes Home, another fast food place is opening – Five Guys @FiveGuysUK. Personally I’ve never eaten in either, vegetarian/vegan options are limited. pic.twitter.com/QCVp3zCvOh

It’s fair to say this is unreal news for people who find that Dundrum is a tad too much of a trek to get their fix of sumptuous Stateside flavours. So what else do we know about the new city centre Five Guys? Read on!
When’s it opening?
Pretty soon, actually. Five Guys are hoping to open their George’s Street branch at the end of May.
And people say Wednesday is the hardest day of the week ???? #FiveGuysDundrum

What’s the capacity?
Five Guys on George’s Steeet will be an 80-seater restaurant meaning there will be plenty of space for people to chow down on juicy burgers and delicious milkshakes.
