I was in Richmond, Va. over the weekend and visited a Five Guys for the first time.
WOW! What a great idea.
Real burgers, fresh never frozen, fresh cut potatoes for french fries done in pure peanut oil. You name it and they have it for toppings, at no extra charge, including grilled onions and grilled mushrooms. Fresh lettuce leaves not shreaded is also available as a topping. A small order of fries would easily feed two to four people, and they were great!
A franchise in the lakes area, with the five stores that I think are required, would do well as long as they had to right locations for on season and off season. One in Meredith, one on the Weirs, one in downtown Laconia, one in Wolfeboro and one in Alton/Gillford would work. Mike D's and BK would be ghost towns.
I hear they have a few stores in the North Shore area of Mass.
