Five Guys in Courthouse closes for renovations, plans to reopen next month

The Five Guys in Courthouse has temporarily closed for a revamp of its interior.

The burger spot at 2300 Wilson Blvd closed on July 6 and is expected to reopen in August, a company spokesperson told ARLnow. No further information was available on the specific renovations, but permit applications mention “interior alterations.”

A construction crew was on site yesterday (Wednesday). The store’s floor tiles appear to have been ripped up, and the interior is full of construction equipment.

Permits also mention changes to the plumbing system, including replacing drains, sinks and backflows.

Five Guys opened its first location at a strip mall in Arlington back in 1986 — a location reopened on the ground floor of Westmont Apartments (3263 Columbia Pike) last summer. Another Five Guys location opened at Reagan National Airport in May 2025.

A final Five Guys in Arlington is located in the Pentagon.
