new & interesting places for your GPS

Five Guys Burgers and Fries Discussion Thread

 

This is the place to submit additions and changes for the Five Guys POI file.

My intent is to check the web site for missing locations every few months. Five Guys is not very good about updating their location list as there is one near me that's been open since June '11 that isn't listed.

In between updates from the website, submit any changes and I will post a new version in both CSV and GPX monthly.

What's needed

What's needed when you report a change is a MINIMUM of the street address, city and state. Zip Codes, phone numbers and shopping center information makes the entry much more complete. While coordinates are gratefully appreciated, I can look them up.

Currently

The file has only the US locations. I may add the Canadian ones later but if someone north of the border wants to take that on I'll gladly share my files so the formats can be similar.

30 Canadian Locations

I would gladly add the 30 Canadian Five Guys locations.

I've sent you an email to reply to.

Thank you

Thank you for taking that on. I hadn't looked to see the number of locations and am glad it isn't going to be a difficult task to start,

Thanks Box Car

I've created the raw file and discovered a bug in EPE creating a second profile to match your layout. I've found a workaround and reported the problem to Turbo.

The geocoded data needs to be verified, so it will take me a while to do that before I post the Canadian file.

Five Guys Updates

Well, it was too good to last. Five Guys changed their website again and it is now impossible to get a listing of locations except as a radius around a city. That means I'm not able to strip the site searching for new locations so updates are going to depend on you users.

The minimum I need for a new location is the city and address. I can then look it up on the 5 Guys site, but this is labor intensive if it's more than one or two.

While having the coordinates is definitely a plus, I can get them from Google as well as the phone number from the 5 Guys site, but again, the more information you provide, the easier it is to update.

One more caveat, 5 Guys in the past hasn't been real prompt in updating their location list at the website. There was a store open near my home location that wasn't listed in more than 9 months, so new locations may not be verified quickly.

One final note, they do have apps for your smartphone, so if you happen to be out and about and the GPS isn't in your pocket, you can spend the bits and look them up on your phone.

I was unable to find this one in the cvs file. I have not been there for co-ords.

Supposedly three of them are opening in Winnipeg, MB this summer and I will forward any information I am able to find.

Thanks for the updates. H.

1800 S Milton Ave

It's in the Green Tree Shopping Center just north of the I-17/I-40/Milton jct.

Another user was going to post the Canadian locations, Last word I had he had all the locations (around 40) but hadn't verified them before posting. Thar was just after I did the last big update.
