    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.
