Five Guys Coming Soon to Times Square
Looks like Five Guys will be sandwiched between Chevy’s and Starbucks on 42nd Street, taking over the old Yoshinoya spot in Times Square. By my count that makes it the fifth Midtown location and ninth in the city (11th if you count Brooklyn!). Also, it’ll be the zillionth burger place in the area, not that that makes its spring opening any less exciting. Thanks to Lunch’er Brian for the tip!

I don’t think your math is right about the number of Five Guys “in the city” and Brooklyn. There are 5 Five Guys in Queens (6 if you include LGA) and and at least that many in Brooklyn.

Isn’t that the old Yoshinoya location

all 3 nyc burger chains w/i walking distance of each other. This should be interesting.
-
isn’t this one from dc?

He means Shake Shack and Schnippers are both around the corner.
-
right, those 2 are legit nyc. this one shouldn’t count as 3rd.

sign is up for “5 Boro Burger” where “My Daddy’s Pizza” (horrible name)used to be on the corner of 6th and 36th… i remember a post from Clay last april about this, but honestly don’t know what ever came of it… can’t think of a burger place there…

Not having fries included with a burger is infuriating.

Yoshinoya’s gone? I haven’t walked down 42nd for a while… wow. I did _like_ Yoshinoya for a somewhat healthier alternative to what else there was to eat in the neighborhood.

Going against Shake Shack right around the corner! Let the free peanut eating begin =)
-
I, too, wish that Yoshinoya Beef Bowl was still there. As recently as a few weeks ago, after seeing a press screening of “John Carter” at that horrible million-plex on the block, I walked to the former location of Yoshinoya even though I knew it had already closed. Sadness!

YOBAGOYA!!!!!!

5Gs is good for what it is but probably get throttled by the Shack and Schnipper’s lovers.
And no love for Queens though? FORGET YOU, pal!
Bland greasy burgers for tourists and ghetto thugs.
