But they give you so many fries!
Should be called Fries Guys
Not at any of the ones I’ve been to :( It’s more than McDonald’s but it’s never been a problem to finish them.
It varies by location. The one near my house can hardly be bothered to fill the cup. One like an hour away I used to go to for work fills half the freaking bag.
Putting fries in paper cups is a stupid idea to begin with.
The Wendy’s, McDonalds, and Hardees In my town are all closed or closing soon. They’ve priced their garbage quality food right out of what the people that would go there can afford. Good riddance. My only sympathy is for the folks losing a job, but working Fast food suuuuucks. I hope those folks find something better.
It wasn’t bad when it was a 5 dollar burger.
Now it’s not even $5 fries
$78 would only feed 2 people
the cost of lunch at a fast food place is almost the same as a sit down restaurant. although you will have to tip.
but no standing in line, fewer loud customers, less stress, better food quality and the ability to customize dishes. plus you can actually have a conversation without yelling over everyone else.
the problem with cheep fast food is it is no longer cheep and just fast…ish. but every other aspect has become substandard crap.
Go to McDonald’s if you want to spend $60 for shit. At least 5 Guys is still good
5 guys is ok
Compared to chains? I’d say it’s generally quite good
It’s not bad food, but it’s definitely not worth the money.
I used to think that Five Guys in my country had awful prices because of some weird franchising agreement. Seems I’m wrong
Their buns get soggy.
They also wrap them too tight at times they’re like hockey pucks when you take them out of the bag.
Wanna know why it’s called Five Guys?
Because it takes the salary of five people to pay for one meal.
Went there once and never went back. I can’t enjoy my food knowing it was so expensive for fast food. You can get a steak dinner at Texas Roadhouse instead.
I never visited America. Could you describe in vivid detail to me what is the Texas Roadhouse experience like?
Meanwhile i grabbed potato buns and beef and made myself a bunch of smash burgers that would put five guys to shame. Only cost like $10
Guess you only got a family of 3.
Went there around covid time… Got shorted on fries and a 30 dollar bill for two…
Bro this is Burger in fries in freedom-land… Gtfo
There’s a Five Guys in my city and whenever I’m reminded of it, I always wonder why I’ve never tried it before. Then I remember I always walk past it after seeing the prices on the menu.
It is good, but not worth the money. They were reasonable back when they first opened in my area. Then it went about 2x the price in a year. And kept going up.
Yep, when they had one near my office like 15 years ago, it was almost the same as McDonald’s and it was great…then prices have basically quadrupled and they’re not worth it at all anymore.
I suspect they keep the prices low the first year or so to establish a customer base and then start raising them.
Interesting and very unfortunate. I loved Five Guys when I first visited the US and they opened one up in Australia and the prices are so high it’s insulting and I’ve never been.
Sad to hear it’s the same in the US now.
Yea this was maybe 17 years ago. I used to get it regularly, but I haven’t had it in at least 10 years from the outrageous prices.
Yea I think I’m pushing 10 years as well now. It’s good food…but it’s still fast food burgers for premium restaurant cost. It’s no longer worth it, hell my local burger places which are actual restaurants with waiters are usually cheaper by $10 or more for the wife and I and that’s with a 25% tip. How 5 guys is still open amazes me.
