The sign announcing Tyler’s Five Guys is closed is pictured.

The Five Guys burgers and fries on 4510 South Broadway Ave. in Tyler in the French Quarter Shopping Center closed on Thursday.

A sign on the door said “Unfortunately, this store will be closing its doors Permanently this Thursday at 5 p.m. Thanks for the memories Tyler!”

A search on Google says the store is closed “temporarily.” The Five Guys corporate website only said the store is closed Tuesday to Friday and only open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday.

The abrupt decision left the store with a lot of fresh food. The management reached out to nonprofit agencies and donated burgers, buns and potatoes to volunteers. After the store closed at 5 p.m., there were five cars loading up food for those in need.

The local store said on Friday there were no plans to reopen. The Tyler Morning Telegraph left a message with the corporate public relations department.
