Are they also banned from wearing gloves while handling my food?
Anyway, Five Guys >
it's like 17 dollars for a "small combo" at five guys and yes I know it's a lot of food but 1) reports are they aren't doing the whole-bag-full-of-fries thing anymore and 2) you can come out ahead and probably get something as good or better at a bar
My Five Guys still does several scoops into a bag.
this is messed up I bet they're just doing it in the really expensive places just to fuck with people even though potatoes are the cheapest thing ever
The bag full of fries seems to vary by location. I stopped at a Five Guys in Vancouver last week on a road trip and they loaded it up nicely. The one closest to me skimps a little bit but I've had far worse at different locations.
They still do it at my local five guys.
Unfortunately, I cannot eat at Five Guy's or Chick-Fil-A because I am allergic to peanuts and they use peanut oil.
I'll eat my next one in your honor friend
5 Guys is superior anyway. Their Cajun fries are amazing.
5 Guys is also twice the price and I would argue that their burgers aren't actually better than In-n-Out's. I like thousand island sauce tho, so I'm a bit biased.
Totally agree with you about the Cajun fries, they completely blow away In-n-Out's fries but their fries set a pretty low bar imo.
That's just like, your opinion man!
Sure. but one's $4 for a double cheese burger and the other is $79 for just a single hamburger.
Agreed, best fries in the biz. And the burgers are consistently delicious.
Where I currently live five guys is consistently twenty bucks pricier than in n out and the product isnt as good. Previously I lived where five guys was very tasty and in n out didn't exist
This is my experience. Five Guys is a $25+ burger/fries/drink. Itβs like $12/$14ish for in-n-out last I checked
I'm sorry to hear that you've been afflicted with a lack of taste buds. 5 Guys fries are some of the worst ones out there IMO. They primarily consist of cold, soggy grease with some Cajun seasoning sprinkled on top and maybe the occasional potato slice if you're lucky.
