UPDATE The Westport Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday night approved a request for a permit and site plan for Five Guys Burgers and Fries, a fast food chain to be located at 538 Post Road East, previously occupied by Totally Kool women’s apparel. The Five Guys chain was founded in Arlington, Va. in 1986 and has expanded to 450 locations in 25 states. The Westport site, which the company hopes to open by Nov. 1, would be its eighth location in Connecticut. The others are in Newtown, Orange, Brookfield, New Haven. Avon, Wethersfield, and Mystic.

Wonder if this will bring us any famous guests.
Only if they serve it with Dijon mustard.
you are going to like Five Guys – highly regarded in the burger joint category. Great burgers, expensive fries . . . .
Remember Fudrucker’s?
Great, just what I needed. The only thing keeping me from eating there 3 days a week was that the closest one was in New Haven.
These are excellent burgers and fries.
Yeah, I definitely remember Fudruckers, but John, while it might have been a bit before you time (maybe not), for truly the BEST burgers I have ever had, anywhere, you must whisper the name Charpentiers from Westport’s past . . . . better than Five Guys, better than In ‘n Out Burger, better then Jackson Hole (in NYC). A real hole in the wall joint, too. Oh well, just like Derosa’s – gone now.
But I bet Five Guys will be received favorably . . .
I do remember Charpentiers, up by the New Englander…..
Will it be “interesting” enough?
