If you're missing your fix of Five Guys burgers, wait no more.
Burger lovers can place an order on the Five Guys app or website to Click & Collect or have their food delivered by Deliveroo after the Bluewater store reopened today.
Numerous social distancing measures for customers and crew have been implemented, to adhere to government guidance.
Five Guys crew members from across the UK will continue to deliver burgers and fries to hospitals and key workers.
Customers ordering via Click & Collect will be prompted to pay for their order prior to visiting the store.
The full menu of freshly prepared food is available. Customers will have the usual choices to create their burgers from scratch by choosing a selection of fresh toppings, with 250,000 possible combinations as well as more than 1,000 possible ways to customise a milkshake.
Branches at Maidstone and Canterbury have already reopened in Kent. Some stores in larger cities across the UK have remained open throughout the pandemic.
Five Guys UK chief executive John Eckbert said: “We have adopted a phased approach to reopening Five Guys stores, adhering to government advice and ensuring the safety of our customers and crew is paramount.
"To date a small number of stores have remained open for Click and Collect and Deliveroo orders only and while this has been in operation, we’re proud of how our crew members have supported local hospitals and key frontline workers across the UK.”
The firm was forced to close its restaurants in Canterbury, Maidstone, Bromley, and at Ashford's Designer Outlet and Bluewater Shopping Centre, amidst the coronavirus pandemic.
