New Five Guys Burgers opens Monday in Dayton
The Miami Valley’s third Five Guys Burgers and Fries is scheduled to open Monday morning, March 8, at 1143 Brown St. near the University of Dayton, franchise owner Chris Mastin said this afternoon, March 3.
The previous two openings of Five Guys restaurants in Washington Twp. and Beavercreek generated long lines during the opening weeks, and Mastin said he is bracing for the same at the UD location.
“People have been coming to the door all day long, thinking that we’re open,” Mastin said. “We’re looking forward to it.”
The new restaurant seats 43, and will open with about 40 employees, Mastin said. Hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week, although Mastin said he will consider staying open later on weekends if there is customer demand for later hours.
After opening three Dayton-area locations in six months, Mastin said there will be a pause before a fourth Five Guys opens locally. He is looking for a location in northern Montgomery County, perhaps in the Huber Heights or Miller Lane area, the franchise owner said. He’d like to open a fourth restaurant in late summer or early fall.
The new restaurant’s phone number is (937) 222-2325.

TweetHere’s why they call it AleFEAST
My colleague Katie Wedell has written a story entitled “A fine food feast awaits beer lovers at winter tasting festival” about the 2nd Annual AleFeast to be held from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. this Saturday, March 6, at the Dayton Masonic Center.
Why is this event an ale feast rather than an ale fest? We’re glad you asked. Here’s an excerpt from Katie’s story summarizing the eats that will be available to AleFeast attendees:
Chefs David Glynn and Mike Wilhelm: Jambalaya and seaweed salad with scallops
Bellyfire Catering: Italian sausage with caramelized peppers and onions.
Chappys Tap Room & Grille: Pulled pork sandwiches and homemade chips.
Culinary Company: Smoked beef brisket, Culinary Company Signature Cole Slaw, baked beans and cheesecake.
Dayton Nut Company: Fancy whole cashews.
Dorothy Lane Market: Chipotle chicken mac & cheese and an assortment of artisan cheeses.
Foremost Seafood: Blackened Tilapia fish tacos with roasted potatoes
Friesinger’s Fine Chocolates: Light and dark locally made gourmet chocolates.
Thai 9: Shrimp Blanket and Shrimp Salad
The Pub: Yankee Pot Roast
That’s one fine food menu. I wonder whether we’d be able to find a beer to wash it down?
