One just opened up here in Germany. Haven't been back to the states in years, so I'm super excited..
Dustorn
Fuck... Is this what I'm having for lunch tomorrow? I think this is what I'm having to lunch tomorrow.

I've had Five Guys, all I could think was "This really isn't as good as everyone hypes it up to be...."
ManInTheBox21
Yum... makes me want In-N-Out

https://pics.me.me/kroger-five-guys-ross-golds-gym-old-navy-staples-acmoore-32627661.png this happened in my hometown.
protostars
This is the only time I want 5 guys in my mouth....
mearas
Why do burger places always use plastic as cheese? Just add a dollar to the price and use some good quality cheese.
LtColonelSmythe
This reminds me I'm past due on my 5 Guys fix. Beats everyone else out by a mile.
barnwolf
IMO Red Robin is just as good AND has a nice sit down experience for your $15 meal.
barnwolf
I also like Bobs Burgers and Brew, but that's more of a local chain.
AeternalDreamer
Five Guys makes my favorite burgers and fries.
voodoosexdoll
Oh...i just go there for the peanuts
have2just4this
+1. Suggest a patty melt (number of patties is your call). I do a double loaded. Buns are grilled cheese!
have2just4this
Not my pic, missing all the toppings
dreadnaughtz94
yup! thats what i make when im workin
benszal4213360
F*** that process cheese
dreadnaughtz94
its kraft. litterly
DoritosCat
pretty much all of the well known chefs are okay with american cheese on a burger.
jawsoshuell
That's fine for them, but american cheese tastes god awful to me. Jack or Provolone is ideal among the cheap cheese.
cmpltkaos
5 Guys is meh at best. There, I said it.
TrixieLaBouche
These people never had good burgers before.
cmpltkaos
5 guys is a grease bomb. And not in a good way.

Bacon cheeseburger with grilled onions, mayo, and jalapeños. Tell me I’m wrong..
Canchocolatejustletmefinish
Lose the jalapeños and we’re in business.
Hoptimonium
Do you also spell Austria as Österreich? because that is how the Austrians spell it. Or Munich as München? English doesn't accent letters
NCRMadness50
Well, unless you call them ja-lap-a-nose , its a spanish word.
ryanthelion7
You're wrong.
dreadnaughtz94
Grill the jalapenos and were in business. you get more too.

My fiancée can't get enough of having five guys. Every friday night, she has five guys. Sometimes she has me have five guys too.

As a former 5 guys dude fuck 5 guys. Except my boss Brian man hope your kids are doing well
Fershnickered
Do you have something share?
WeedoForFreedom
Just stories of college kids getting completely fucked up and running a 5guys. Boss was oldest guy there at 24
dreadnaughtz94
i work there. my boss is 26.
IrishBeast
Post the story .
ProbablyDrunkAgain
If you weren't a fucked up college kid, what were you doing working at a 5 Guys?
n3ckr0mantic
deweydefeatstrumanagain
It's good. It's not amazing, but if you want a greasy-ass burger it hits the spot
wickednoreaster
They just put one in right next door to where i work. It's dangerous.
didsomeonesayanal
Hell, I even found a five guys in NLD
GoldTeef4ErrBody
No way, we have them everywhere even in UK now
tokenhooker
I will wrap and fast ship you sone this weekend.
Darrullo
what we have them fairly frequently in the uk theres at least 2 in kent alone and our counties are like an hours drive at most
FuryM0nk
Hope you have in n out, or else your just shit out of good fast food burgers man.
SaucyDisses
Just found out there are a few in my town! Gonna have to give it a try this weekend
xLuiis
You’re not missing much, it’s over priced, not even that good and in n out is way better than five guys.
Elusivehawk
PeteCzar
I live in the UK and there's two in my city. :S
Cheomesh
You're not missing much, honestly.
JustSomeOtherRando
Yes he is don't lie to him.
OddlyPacific
It's overrated. It's the Chipotle of hamburger joints.
Cheomesh
That...is a pretty good way to put it, though I'd go to 5Guys over Chipotle every time.
OddlyPacific
Me too but for a burger: Eureka! The Habit, Stuft, Smashburger, Squeeze Inn, Annie's, and many others over Five Guys.
Cheomesh
Where I'm living right now, 5Guys is pretty much the top :/
NapoleonDynOmite
It's good. Nothing out of the ordinary tho
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
What state do you live in? I thought five guys was all encompassing
n3ckr0mantic
Alaska
CharlieWoolf
Interesting, because they have it in canada
BeardedXBatman
If you’re encompassed by five guys, I’m pretty you’re in a bukkake.
Randomman96
So, depending on the person, a good time either way?

Johnrednex
WTF is that
NatsukiIsMyWaifu
It's pretty self apparent.

I have a peanut allergy. The closest I can get is licking my phone
Cheomesh
Used to know a guy where the steam coming out the top of the joint would make him break out.
DoritosCat
blame your parents for not exposing you to peanuts during adolescence.
Xendrash
That can't be real.
DoritosCat
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25705822 (read conclusion)
lpooptoomuch
are you also a gluten free vegan who does cross fit?
KeyLimePrime
The place filled with barrels of peanuts and their fries are fried in peanut oil, having a peanut allergy is a fair reason to avoid 5 guys.
CygnustheBananaSwan
Though peanut oil is considered safe for those with a peanut allergen - no proteins in the oil
sureasyourebornyourenevergoingtoseenounicorn
That’s not accurate though, there are significantly less proteins in the oil but enough that many still react.
CygnustheBananaSwan
Highly refined peanut oil*
KeyLimePrime
Fair. Though there's still huge piles of peanuts everywhere so I think the oil is the least of their worries.
ManAmIThirsty
...is overpriced and overrated.
smurfsmurfsmurf
Especially the greasy ton of fries that are a soggy floppy and cold mess by the time you sit down. Easily the worse fries I've had.
MyMiddleNameIsAllen
I very much agree. I shared the same sentiment here a few years ago and got massively shit on. Looks like there are more of us now.
Hoptimonium
It's only overpriced if you don't take advantage of the free toppings. I get mine loaded with jalapenos, grilled onions, tomatos, etc.
MobilizedPants2
But they give you soo many fries! Smashburger, is where the burgers are.
LCDJosh
GTFoutta here with smashburger. Who wants their burgers paper-thin? Future serial killers that's who.
MobilizedPants2
No Smashburger, the place is called Smashburger.
smurfsmurfsmurf
And they are greasy, soggy, and not hot enough to be enjoyable.
tiderfish
No
MobilizedPants2
Ok cunt
vahnn
I went to 5 Guys once, and I was unimpressed and never went back. Maybe I should give it another go.
DoritosCat
its good to go with one other person so you can share a regular fries. also fill up on the free peanuts while your wait for your order.
vahnn
Why would I order a regular fry and share? I'll order a large fry and eat it all.
therealpopkiller
I had the same experience and then I went back a 2nd time and had the same experience. 5 Guys sucks.
espressoandpostrock
It's definitely overrated, but honestly there's someone that rants and raves over everything so whatever
dreadnaughtz94
you should! we litterly get in trouble if were not enthusiastic and smiling.
vahnn
Service was fine, the food was meh. Wasn't bad, but wasn't worth the hype and not worth the money.
UglyHorribleGrouchyOldMan
The other issue is that it takes their grills a good year or so to season. The just-opened shops just aren't the same.
vahnn
That could be, this was like 3 or 4 years ago, may be worth a shot then.
Konton90
Can't forget the cajun fries too *drool*
Ixadias
+1 Had to make sure _somebody_ mentioned the cajun fries!
Konton90
I worked there in college. I would just get a small cajun fry for lunch every day.
wiggles
DangerousNoodle
5 Guys is too expensive for me.
wiggles
stop being poor
N4t4ly45
Yeah, here they charge a dollar extra just for a slice of cheese.
Trimule
Delicious Food - about the best, but- Hot dog, reg. cheeseburger, 1 small fries (enough for three people) & drink last night was $19 - Damn!
Gianttesticlemonster
Well if your name is Smokey I may be able to help you out with a cheeseburger
Gorperino
Mans gotta eat, Mr. Lahey.
assholecasserole
DTownFunkyStuff
It’s maybe 2 dollars more than a McDonald’s meal unless you work the dollar menu like I used to before I had a job
DangerousNoodle
A decent meal at McDonalds is $6-$8, Five Guys is easily $15 or more here.
strideo
A decent meal is not attainable at McDonald's but, yeah, they do have cheaper food.
chudontknowme
But comes with only a burger. Fries are an extra $4 and drink $3
strideo
Drink water. Skip the sodas. No one should be drinking an extra 60-90 grams of sugar with their meal.
Fargus57
A 5 Guys double CB with fries and a soda is about $15 here. Not worth it for those skinny overcooked patties.
GalacticOverlord
Legit. This place was so hyped. We got one. SO and I got fries, drink, and a basic burger for $24. It was loud and dirty at 10a 1/2
GalacticOverlord
which means nobody actually bothered the clean from the night before, because we were the first customers in the door.
pdhackley
Well start a “Go Fund Me” for you!
MyBrainIsPlastiDipped
I'd donate!
ManInTheBox21
causality
Too expensive to have such shit-tier fries, anyway.
Cheomesh
Yeah the fries aren't great.
cr9009
I used to think the same until I heard you're supposed to keep the bag open after they hand it to you. Huge difference and crispy af
causality
Crispness isn't the issue, it's how half the fries are brown and shrively. Shit's gross.
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
My friends and I have what we call the five guys test. If it isn’t Better than five guys it should be ashamed to cost 10+ dollars
Cheomesh
I thought this place was about on par: http://www.abbeyburgerfellspoint.com/uploads/3/0/5/8/30589507/abbey_burger_2016__9_.pdf
barnwolf
Burger $7.69 + Fries $3.09 + Drink $2.39 = $13.17 meal.
barnwolf
Their burgers aren't bad, but IMO it's rather expensive for fast food.
mesoziocera
Cookout - 5.99 for dbl bacon CB, 2 side, drink. Whataburger - 7.99 for double bacon CB, fries, drink. Way better than 5 guys.
magneticgumby
Cookout is the gem of the south. I look forward to the day they cross the Mason-Dixon into the north. As of now, closest is Harrisonburg VA
DanielMurphyIsGod
I work at Buffalo Wild Wings. Our burgers do not pass the five guys test. Not even close. We should be ashamed
Randomman96
I give BWW a slight exception, on occasion, due to the fact you can get their sauces on the burger. Other than that, shame.
binicorn
Burgers cost €11 at 5Guys in Holland. :(
NASAguy1000
Agreed. But also on that list at least in my parts are semper fi (military bar) moxie burger, the red eyed mule which omg yes, open til...1/
NASAguy1000
2pm "ish" um also burger fi is really good, stock yard is too. But if im wanting good but cheap checkers is my go to, because duh.
Grenateh
5 guys isn't good...in the first place.....
ThanatosST
I live in Hawaii, and we just got a 5 guys here last year. Minimum $10 per burger.
blacknsilver86
On the plus side you live in Hawaii
TheRabidOcelot
Here in Tulsa we have Fat guys Burger bar, a double buger runs about $8 and pretty much every topping but backn and cheese is free
TheRabidOcelot
*bacon
TheRabidOcelot
They have really good fries, and some good fry sauces. Strawberry Ketchup is my fave, but they have like 25. I love that place
Gayforbae
johnnydarkside
They're not great, but about the best for the price. A double for like $8 and all toppings you want.
TheRealStalinWhoIsStandingUp
Amen, me and my bro went to a 5 guys and lunch. Abandoned and it cost me 30 Canadian shekels
RationalDiscourse
I use two local places here in Memphis - Tops BBQ (trust me, get the burger, just do it) and Dyers. Both cheap and amazing. That’s the bar
UglyHorribleGrouchyOldMan
Dyer's is absolute bliss. Nothing like 100-year-old grease fried burgers.
RationalDiscourse
UglyHorribleGrouchyOldMan
Never lived there, but TDY there many times.
RationalDiscourse
Nice. Yeah Memphis isn’t the worst layover there is. Which branch are you?
JosephineRar
Whattaburger
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
Most overrated chain in perhaps the history of fast food. Basically Burger King but with a proud southern fan base.
JosephineRar
Stooppp burger kinda burgers are half the size and twice the bread.
bbfiddler
If it was available by me I'd try it :/
JosephineRar
It’s the tits, fuk the haters!
GeekusPrimus
Nah. Born and raised in Texas and have to go with Five Guys anyway.
hotdudecurator
Ok that's it, people will not stop talking about Whataburger. I HAVE to find one and try it. I wonder what the closest to Portland is...
JosephineRar
Bruh, don’t forget the spicy ketchup
NASAguy1000
Wat uh. Or wut uh.
TrixieLaBouche
Whut Uh Burger
Foonbee
Ive said it like water burger all my life here in TX so idk maybe its the accent
ImgursLibertarian
Mcd's double cheeseburger is better than everything I've had at 5 guys.
MultipleDads
This used to be my benchmark too, until I realized our local burger chain Dick's in WA is twice as good for half the price.
0100100001100101011011000110110001101111
In Oregon we got dicks too but it's more expensive
Thanossaves
Coming from Utah it's Apollo Burger, and Baklava for dessert. 5 guys ain' got shit on them.
Drakethedragon
I really prefer JCWs over Apollo burger. What do you get at Apollo burger that is so good?
ddoubledash197
Eat a bag of Dicks!
vimnnn
Really, who doesn't love a bag of Dick's?
bashya
I just moved out of seattle and i miss dick's the most. Everyone worships in n out here, but its not even that good
SoupFace
Oh fuck yeah
NukeItFromOrbitMan
So now instead of having Five Guys in your mouth, you just have Dicks in your mouth?
iMightSendYouRandomStuff
MultipleDads
Correct. I like a Dicks deluxe directly in my mouth hole. Extra tartar.
bbfiddler
Yes! Too many places have $15 burgers that aren't even as good as five guys, not to mention cajun fries.

Ground up giant squid beak patties harvested from the belly of a whale served on a focaccia bun with purple radish aioli? With fancy cheese.

I have been to some that doesn't match up to the quality of McDonald's....
XxxAziexxX
The only burger I've ever had that was worth the $15 I paid for it was the Madlove burger at Red Robin.
KarenRichardAndJesusCarpenter
cajun fries are disgusting
Apocalypsox
Oh a large cajun fry feeds 2-3 people? Honey please.
AuxKat
I would kill a man for some cajun fries.
Arconyte
Shit, I volunteer as long as I get a few fries.
malikcarr
...isn't it just Old Bay seasoning?
Comet260
I'll send you a list of targets.
jimwormmaster
Yeah....Red Robin's are about $10, $11, including the fries, so I usually only go once a year for the free birthday burger -1-
jimwormmaster
Last year they even comped the upcharge for the garlic fries, so I was like o_O
Aaronspark777
Best part of Red Robins is the seasoning. You can buy it for like $5.
jimwormmaster
Wait, which seasoning?
Aaronspark777
the red robins seasoned shaker that is at every table.
iBlueSky
5 guys aint even that good its a basic burgur
GThang13
Yea I'm with you they still riding that wave from that Obama hype! Taste don't equal up to the price
haze2893
You can’t even spell burger, what do you know about burgers
WhenEmusAttack
this is I think... the first downvote i've ever given on imgur. jeez. ass.
detour512
I gotta agree been there a few times it's meh at best, five guys, in & out, even the local places mighty fine, meh. Hole in the wall for me
KarenRichardAndJesusCarpenter
We have a place called Burgatory here in Pittsburgh. Makes 5 guys look like shit.
Gayforbae
I do that think any hamburger is better than having five guys.... >)
dazuk85
Weird question... in the US is a beefbuger a hambuger or a pork burger a hamburger or both?
Doopapotamus
In the US a hamburger is always beef, for selling across to the large Jewish/Muslim populations. I'd love a partially pork burger myself.
Doopapotamus
To elaborate: a "burger" as a term 99.9% of the time is just beef, but otherwise it's outright mentioned if it's cut with other meats/items.
dazuk85
But why is it called a hamburger?
Gayforbae
I've never heard of any kind of burger other than beef tbh. Except like a buffalo or turkey burger. A pork burger is just a sausage patty...
dazuk85
So why is it called a hamburger?
dazuk85
Ham being pork i mean
yourbassist
Weird. I think they should be ashamed at their price.
UglyHorribleGrouchyOldMan
If you're not comfortable with their prices, then you're not their target market.
RationalDiscourse
I agree... I use two local places here in Memphis, TN as a benchmark. Dyers and a place called Tops BBQ (trust me, get the burger)
frankreynoldsthefrogkid
I listened to a podcast about five guys. The founder let his teenagers choose the ingredients and they ended up being more expensive
Rips4w
Then why are their burgers so fucking basic?
NCRMadness50
It is your fault that they're basic. You can add whatever the fuck you want at no additional cost (except cheese).
SecretWielder
If that’s the case, I’ll add a shake, on the side of corse.
pita26
But...it's a build your own burger joint...
jmeyers1983
Browsing imgur makes me feel fortunate to have a good job.
yourbassist
I have a good job. Their price doesn't match the product so I don't eat there.
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
Haha same people complaining about the price of five guys really puts things in perspective. Like you can’t all seriously be this poor
jmeyers1983
That’s what I mean. Part of it is the inevitable circle jerk that is Imgur. Sometimes I catch myself partaking too.
memepolice420
A cheeseburger is only about $8.50
johnnydarkside
Say only, but that's a double patty, double cheese with a huge list of toppings.
illegalacorn
...only
yourbassist
It's not an issue of cost. It's an issue of cost/quality ratio
TraitorousTrump3
In CO, a double cheese burger is $7.85.
AfatCatnamedHiggins
Yes, and a double at smashburger is 10.50, totally worth it too.
TraitorousTrump3
Meh. 5 guys is better.
Blkmagik12
No Smashburger is not that great
burningeagle
You can get a double-double animal style in a combo for that
Zyrixion
Meh. In & Out is a pretty mediocre burger joint really, I think 5 Guys does better burgers.
TheButte
We don't have In n Out in MN :(. There is a shake shack at MOA. Worth dealing with mall traffic for it.
burningeagle
I’ve had both, they’re always worth the wait <3
ManOfIce
In what world do you live in that a cheeseburger that costs almost 9 dollars is "only" 9 dollars?? It's a damn plain cheeseburger
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
If your complaining about a 9 dollar meal you might be poor. Don’t judge others moderately priced meals.
ImNotRacistBut
They're not like McDonald's cheeseburgers. They're like the size of a large toddler's head.
mtimothy
Eh? 5 guys? I've eaten at one in Omaha NE and the burger and fries were pretty basic to me. Nothing really stood out from the experience.
mtimothy
(2) coast and was let down to find the burger and fries were basically like Sonic.
mtimothy
(1)Unrelated but in the military people hyped up In and Out all the time. I was excited to finally get to try it during one trip to the West
RandomnessSlayer
You've clearly never eaten there. Toppings are free (minus bacon and cheese).
IbukiOnTheScene
bacon/cheese are the only toppings I'd add anyway. maybe ketchup or something but i usually just have that on the side to dip fries in
