Five Guys Wilkes-Barre

If you’re looking for a relaxed, delicious burger stop in Wilkes-Barre, the Five Guys at 280 Mundy St, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18702, United States has you covered.
From the moment you walk in (or pull up for take-out), you’ll notice how much this location leans into the classic burger-and-fries experience-with a few elevated touches.

The signature here is the burger and fries combo done right. For instance:

• Their Fresh Cut Fries, which are hand-cut in-house and double-fried in peanut oil.

• The classic Bacon Cheeseburger: fresh, hand-formed patties, apple-wood smoked bacon, melty American cheese-on a toasted bun.

• If you’re in for something a little different: try the Double Bacon Cheeseburger, or go for a Little Hamburger if you want something lighter.

• Don’t skip the shake: their milk-shakes are made to order with a wide range of mix-ins.

• For something more unique: a Cheese Veggie Sandwich or a BLT stacked with bacon is also available-giving you a break from the typical burger route.

• You’ll see options for dine-in, takeaway, delivery, and even no-contact delivery-so whether you’re out with friends or grabbing a solo meal, it works.

• For those who prefer eating outside, there’s outdoor seating available.

• Accessibility has been considered: there’s a wheelchair-accessible car park, entrance, seating, and restrooms, which makes it more convenient for a broader group of diners.

• The setting is casual and friendly-ideal for lunch, dinner, or a quick solo bite.

What really gives this Five Guys location an edge is the “quality fast-food” feel. The meat is freshly ground (they say no freezers in the restaurants). The fries are freshly cut on site. The customizations are essentially endless: the menu boasts over 250,000 burger combinations and 1,000+ milkshake combos.
Many patrons note that though the price might be a bit higher than standard fast-food, the portion sizes are generous and the flavor hits. “The burgers are always great,” one review says.
At the same time, some guests caution that during peak times the service can slow or the food may arrive less hot than ideal-but that seems more about timing than the overall concept.

• If you want to try the fries at their best, ask for Cajun-style seasoning (they offer this extra kick).

• For a lighter option, the "Little" sized burgers give you the same quality but a smaller portion.

• When dining in, aim for non-peak hours (early lunch or late afternoon) to avoid long waits.

• If you’re outside ordering or waiting, the outdoor seating is a solid choice-especially if you’ve brought company or want a more relaxed vibe.

• Delivery and take-out are available and quite convenient if you prefer eating elsewhere; ordering ahead can reduce wait time.

All in all, if you’re in Wilkes-Barre and craving a burger that’s a notch above the usual big-chain fast food, Five Guys Wilkes-Barre is a solid pick.
