Yay! Corporate shills on CP!
J/K Sounds like it might be worth a try. How does pricing compare with Fat Burger. Personally, $35 at a burger joint is a little steep IMO for two adults and 2 kids unless it's tthe best burger ever. I think Fat Burger is priced about a buck or a buck and a half too high per combo for the quality of the food. (but they do have wicked lemonade)

The guy above said about 6 weeks from his post which was July 14, so still 3 weeks to wait.

Yah I haven't heard anything since this thread died, and I have a hankerin' for trying them out. The all-seeing, all-knowing CP has not failed me yet, so anyone who sees these Five so-called "Guys" and their magic burgers needs to shout out right away.

So what you're saying is running down to my car and updating this thread on my Blackberry isn't going to get me lunch?

I guess that depends upon how fast you can run.

So, by a process which I like to call "math" - a process that I sadly neglected to employ earlier in this thread, as was pointed out to me - I deduce that this place must be opening around Labour Day, and so I would think that the actual physical premises must be nearly ready. So has anyone seen the place yet, or know where it is located?
I'm thinking I might go to the grand opening and try to be the first guy to be sold a Five Guys burger in the city. I'm pretty sure the chicks'll be all over me like stink on an Oilers fan after that - what girl WOULD'NT want to be with a ground-breaking gourmet of that caliber?

Speaking of Burgers... have you guys tried The Burger Co. in Cross Iron Mills yet? It's NY Fries does burger. I give two huge thumbs up!!! Harveys style where you pick your toppings but they have a variety of excellent sauces.

A few of my buddies are opening a burger restaurant (going to be delicious) downtown.
LoungeBurger
As seen on the Macleod Trail side of the pedestrian level of OPUS's Stampede Station building at 1331 Macleod Trail SE (directly East of the Nuera development and in the same building as ATB): COMING SOON - loungeburger.
The concept will be "a gourmet "build your own" burger restaurant/lounge" and will also have "appys, sliders, desserts and some select entrees".
They currently plan on opening in mid-September.
Should be good place before flames games.

I work across the street from this place and it has been "Coming Soon" for months now. Mid-September was three days ago. Any updated opening date?

That was a cut and past job. Owner said "next friday" had a tour of the place today - next friday seemed optimistic, I'd guess early October. Looks really nice though.

No for 5 Guys burger and fries or whatever it's called if that's what you're asking. If you're asking about lounge burger it's in stampede station!

I've been NEEDING a place to eat before Flames games and I've been staring at that "coming soon" sign for too many months. Excited to give it a try.
