Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice




Honestly, a loving Bacon Double Cheeseburger, fries, and a drink cost $13. You can get a better burger, fries, and a drink for less at a good local pub for gently caress's sake.

Yeah, they have good food, but it a complete ripoff.

can we agree that "gourmet" burger joints that grind up choice cuts and put them on brioche with some kind of artisan cave cheese and a side of "frites" are the loving worst?

Hell, go to Fuddruckers and get a 1 pound hamburger fries and a drink, and it's cheaper than that.

Honestly, I completely forget they even exist most of the time, and the one nearest to me is right next to a mall with a Five Guys in it.

The best part of Five Guys is being able to tell your coworkers you just got filled up by five guys at lunch.

Local burger joints around here are all expensive and think piling pastrami or gyros on top of a burger is what makes a burger good. Honestly I'd rather just go to fuddruckers and get a regular drat hamburger cooked med-rare for a reasonable price.

Five Guys burgers are disgustingly greasy.

Although its a full service restaurant, if we're comparing chains, I think Red Robin burgers are superior.

When I moved out to Southern CA, Five Guys had not expanded into the region, so In n Out was the supreme leader.

A few years later, people given a choice widely prefer a Five Guys burger. In n Out is an superior alternative to the cheap burgers you'd get at McDonalds, BK, or Carls Jr, but if you want to spend a few extra bucks you get a much better burger, on a better bun, with way more variety to the flavor.

Five Guys makes its money from people who don't want fast food, don't want to pay for "fine dining" but want a good meal for a good price. If you want to min/max food/money then In in Out is better, but if not most people widely prefer Five Guys.

There are few things the original Five Guys dictate to their franchise owners. One is the no freezers policy, the other is the type of bread. They will literally search out bakers in the region willing and able to provide the specific kind of bread before they allow the franchise to be opened.

I went there on my birthday. Tried to tell my friend not to order fries since a single order of fries is enough food for like 10 loving people. He did it anyway.

Burgers are ok, If pricey. Whataburger still infinitely superior.

I had a burger yesterday called The Plague Bringer and I thought of EBOLA and goons.




10oz of black angus sirloin. It was a spicy drippy mess and fitting of the name. Best burger I've had that isn't homemade.

Of the medium sized chain burger joints, Smashburger and Culver's are both better than Five Guys.

five guys is expensive and I would hesitate to call a greased ball of bread, beef, and condiments a burger. don't get why it's always packed, you would get a burger faster from a pub.

this is canada though and people go ga-ga over new American chains for a bit so maybe it's not so busy elsewhere?

Every time I go into a Five Guys it's pretty packed. I don't know why, we have a plethora of local joints that are even better for the same price.

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
Every time I go into Five Guys Burgers and Fries I gently caress the staff members in exchange for favorable reviews on my internet flash game, then I brutally torture and emotionally abuse my boyfriend, sexually assault a guy at wedding, have Phil Fish come to my defense and then get a load of people to defend my manipulative sociopathic nonsense lmao.

Checkers is really good for a fast food joint. Their roadhouse burger is pretty baller. And fully loaded fries are worth the diarrhea.

It's good but not as good or cheap as In and Out Burger but unfortunately the midwest only has 5 Guys and Smashburger. Fuddruckers is dead.
