Liverpool to get first taste of Five Guys
INTERNATIONAL burger joint Five Guys is to take up tenancy in the old Rat and Parrot building at Liverpool’s Queen Square.
Five Guys will take up the 3,850sq ft unit on the ground floor of the building and will be the first of the brand’s restaurants in Merseyside, with the only other North West venue at the Trafford Centre, in Manchester.
It will join Nando’s, La Tasca and Buffalo Jacks amongst the restaurant offering at Queen Square in the St George’s Quarter.
Five Guys launched in Virginia, USA, in 1986 by Janie and Jerry Murrell, with the ‘Five guys’ being the couple’s sons. The restaurant is famous for its casual fast-food mantra, as well as its freshly made, fully customisable burgers, hand-cut fries and milkshakes.
The fast food chain also claims to have President Barack Obama’s seal of approval, thanks to its ‘no frills’ attitude and top-quality food that is prepared fresh on a daily basis.
Daniel Hynd, managing director of Promenade Estates which owns and operates Queen Square, said: “We’re thrilled to announce that Five Guys will be one of the new tenants for Queen Square. It’s an exciting, family-run brand that have taken off as one of the most successful restaurant brands in the world.”
