This is my new “Fast Food” burger joint. Don’t be discouraged by the fact that this eatery is located on one of the busiest weekend streets in Chicago, it is well worth the headache. I did find that entering the neighborhood from the East on Webster and parking between Racine and Lakewood was pretty open.
If you enjoy a simple burger and fries experience, this is the place. I dare say it is better than In and Out. The burgers are available in a single or double patty version and the fries are fresh cut on the spot. Served in a brown paper bag, there is nothing fancy about the presentation, but the product is delicious. My wife and I each had a “Little Burger” which is the single patty and split a regular fry. Trust me, this is plenty of food and will cost you about $16 w/ drinks.
The Lincoln Park location is a bit small, so seating is at a premium on a Saturday afternoon. Whether you are looking to cure a hangover, or just need your weekly burger fix, give Five Guys a shot.
If you would prefer to walk to Five Guys and hundreds of other restaurants and retail outlets on the Clybourn strip, there are plenty of Real Estate options in the area. If you are into lofts, this area is rich with loft options, along with small and large condo buildings, townhome developments, and beautifully single family homes.
There are 17 one bedroom condos on the market between $190k and $412k. For 2 and 3 bedroom condos, you will have 142 to choose from, ranging from $265k to $1.4M.
This area is also known for its large concentration of single family homes, and there are currently 82 on the market within .5 miles of Five Guys. They range in price from $385k to $4.2M. I happen to be in love with the listing priced at $4.2M, which is an Urban Country Estate on 3 city lots.
