Better burger brand Five Guys, which earlier this summer completed the refinancing of its debt facility, securing £185m to support its ambitious growth plans across the UK and its European territories, has added three further sites to its opening pipeline.
The brand, which operates circa 175 sites across the UK, has secured new sites in The Oracle scheme in Reading (former All Bar One site), at the Festival Retail Park in Stoke-on-Trent (former Frankie & Benny’s site), and at the Arena Shopping Park in Coventry.
The latter will be a drive-thru site. The company opened its latest site on Monday the 6th of August as it launches a new drive-thru unit in Leamington Spa.
The company recently opened a drive-thru site in Liverpool Shopping Park, and a site at the Cotswolds Designer Outlet. It also recently relocated to a larger site at Westfield London, on the scheme’s Loft Mezzanine Level.
The new site is now able to serve up to 162 people in a 6,641 square-foot space. In May, the brand revealed it will make its UK transport hub debut after agreeing a deal to open a restaurant at Heathrow airport’s Terminal 5 later this year.
