Nearly 30 years since the first store opened in Washington, D.C., Five Guys has become a national chain with a loyal customer base country-wide. Five Guys earned a reputation for quality fast food due to the fact that the chain relies on fresh ground beef, and no food is ever frozen, according to the website.

Local patrons also love the Coke machine that lets you combine nearly 100 flavors of soda. There are also thousands of ways to order your burger, so you can customize it to exactly how you like it. The fries come piping hot and piled high in a little red-checked fry boat. At Five Guys, everything is cooked in peanut oil, and peanuts are served in bulk containers inside.

Five Guys Burgers and Fries's location within the Dedham Mall is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
