A new fast food chain will soon come to Slovakia after Monterock International was given a licence to operate the popular Five Guys restaurants in Central and Eastern Europe, according to the news website Aktuality.sk
Five Guys was founded in 1986 in Arlington, Virginia, US. Currently, Five Guys has almost 2,000 establishments around the world, including two in Vienna.
"Monterock will take over the two existing branches already operating in Vienna and plans to open new restaurants in the capitals of Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary by 2028," the company said.
In Slovakia, the company will probably open its first restaurant in Bratislava. But it will only come after one is opened in Prague.
Five Guys, which focuses its offer around hamburgers and hot dogs, is expected to be competition mainly for McDonald's and Burger King in Slovakia.
