A POPULAR burger restaurant has been packed with customers for its opening day.

Fast food fans have been eagerly awaiting the opening of Five Guys at Bournemouth’s BH2 development.

The restaurant, which has a simple menu comprising a range of burgers, hotdogs and sandwiches, has created 35 jobs and seats 81 inside and 12 outside.

Manager Fred Lines said it had been an “incredible” opening day.

“People were trying to come in before we even opened. We’re expecting it to be even busier tonight,” he said.

“We have lots of people who have enjoyed taking away their food and eating it in the gardens on this beautiful, sunny day.”

Seven things you should know about Five Guys:

• All their hamburgers are double meat - if you want just one that’s the ‘little hamburger’

• They do grilled cheese sandwiches (one of the ‘menu hacks’ is burgers with a grilled cheese sandwich each side instead of a bun)

• The fries are fried in peanut oil so don’t have them if you’re allergic

• Their veggie burger is just toppings in a bun

• You can get bacon crumbled in your milkshakes

• Their standard cheeseburger and small fries is more than double the calories of McDonalds!)
