Guess you only got a family of 3.
Wendy’s $5 or $6 meal deals… you get a double stack, nuggies, fries & a drink, and a frosty with each purchase for a year if you get their key tag.
Key tag?
Edit: oh, it’s a 3 dollar keychain.
It’s $1 at mine
Wanna know why it’s called Five Guys?
Because it takes the salary of five people to pay for one meal.
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.
But they give you so many fries!
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.
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
It’s terrible, but I guess it depends on the area?
Like, our local Steak and Shakes make far better burgers for nothing. Not to speak of real burger joints everywhere.
But if you’re… I dunno, in a burger joint desert and Cracker Barrel is the only other choice, and you’re rich, maybe Five Guys is not terrible?
I’m so glad I stopped eating fast food about 15 years ago when I knew it was terrible for me and made me feel like crap afterward. Watching everyone freak out about their exorbitant prices today just makes me feel very satisfied in my decision.
Same here. I stopped eating meat back in the mid 00’s too, so there’s rarely any reason for me to want fast food anyway.
Five Guys had crazy prices from the start and it marketed itself as NOT being fast food.
And it always sucked. Premium prices on garbage food.
Im gonna stop you there, it’s expensive AF but they are one of the best fast food burgers you can get.
All fast food burgers suck so “the best fast food burger” is a very low bar…especially when they’re charging restaurant prices…and they’re not all that fast at making it. 50% higher cost for a 10% better burger, I’ll pass.
It’s worse than a cheaper burger from a non-chain restaurant. And it’s WAY worse than a comparably-priced one.
I would rather eat a Five Guys burger than most if not any non-chain restaurant burgers as well. They are pretty topnotch. I honestly can’t think of a better burger that isn’t homemade.
Their buns get soggy.
There is a five guys in my city. Tried it at two different locations, given its good reputation.
The single worst burger place. That they have any sort of reputation at all for being good is a stain on the fabric on the concept of restaurants.
The one I used to go to by my home made the best burgers in town. The one I went to twice by my office was gross.
I thought it was a one off but the number of people shitting on them in this thread tells me they have a quality control problem. There are good ones but yeah if I paid what they charged for a mediocre burger I wouldn’t go back either.
Same
The one I sometimes go to makes excellent burgers and fill the bag to the top with fries. It’s expensive but I don’t go there very often (and I hate McDonald’s and BKs burgers)
I think it just varies a lot from location to location. I went to one in Limassol once and it was great.
