Friez & Burgz hints at new Sunderland branch in social media post

Friez & Burgz, known for its smash burgers, loaded fries, milkshakes and desserts, teased the potential expansion with a photograph of St Lukes Terrace in Pallion posted on social media on Thursday, August 6.

The post, simply captioned, “Hello!”, quickly generated excitement among fans and locals.

One commented: “Been asking for this for like ever.”

Another wrote: “If Friez and Burgz are coming to Sunderland you need to try ASAP it’s unbelievable.”

Another said: “Omg finally! Sunderland! Looks like Pallion!” One other dubbed it an “absolute game-changer”.

“Omg, I’ll definately be eating dinner there while working,” insisted another.

Another excited fan added: “No way! I love that you’re in South Shields because it means you’re our treat when we house sit for my mum…but now…God have mercy on my waistline.”

Friez & Burgz has rapidly expanded to sites across Tyne and Wear and County Durham, including Chester-le-Street and Newcastle.

Their latest branch opened in Chester-le-Street in April, taking over a unit previously occupied by Greggs.

On Tripadvisor, one customer describes the chain as “truly amazing.”

Others have praised its Forest Hall site, calling it “5 stars as usual.”
