>>8859839
I've never tried Five Guys but I'm going to later this month. Any advice on what I should order /ck/?

>>8859849
Whatever. You'll be disappointed, no matter what. Their food is overpriced and under-seasoned. I guarantee you can make a better burger with what's in your home.

>>8859864
I don't have a home though

>/ck/ shits on whataburger, five guys etc for not being perfect
>has threads full of shills claiming there's nothing wrong with processed meat patties and McDonalds is delicious

Really gets the neutrons blasting.

>>8859972
>/ck/ is one person

Shake Shack is the best easily. In and Out is also good but not quite as flavorful (although a lot cheaper). Five Guys is greasy and bad.

Five Guys was good until they increased their pricing. I believe it was around $5.80 for their most basic burger with the most basic set of toppings and that was a pretty good deal. It gave me a reason to buy Five Guys over the McDonalds Big Mac. Unfortunately, they increased the price to around $6.80 now and that is too much for me.

So now I don't buy from either of these shit franchises.

Whataburger
P Terrys
In n Out
these are the only acceptable places to buy a burger in 2017

Overpriced for as little food and quality of food. You are essentially paying for a home cooked burger and fries at a premium

>>8860879
Five Guys burgers are at least $12 each.

1 x Cheesburger
1 x Regular fries
1 x Vanilla Milkshake

Total cost : £16.80 or about $21.59

>>8859849
Little cheese burger with grilled onions, gilled mushrooms, grilled bell peppers, tomatoes, pickles, steak sauce, mayo, and hot sauce + cajun fries + banana shake.

If you're going to 5guys might as well eat until you're sick.

I never really got the '5 guys are expensive' meme. Is it that the one in my town is cheaper or what? Because a cheese burger from my local 5guys is 5.50 and fries is 2.85. I mean it's more expensive than a lot of fast foot places but 9 dollars isn't that much.

Just go to Wendy's desu same quality and you get a whole meal for the price of one burger at 5 gays

>>8861577
Price is relative. You probably live in an area where taxes are low but that also means that there are cheaper alternatives like you said. The argument is that for the price you're not getting something worthwhile.

>all these people being this wrong

5 Guys is the best chain burger restaurant bar none. Anyone who says it's too expensive is broke beyond comprehension. Their fries are award winning and their burgers are flawless consistently.

>>8861773
I can pay a dollar or two more and get a burger 8 times as good at a restaurant

>>8861794
Well, no the fuck you can not, but even if that was true what's your point?

>>8861773

Wew lad. Gimme Culvers or Wendy's any day of the week.

>>8861577
I went and got a bacon cheese burger and regular fry with a drink and it was 12$man what the fuck

>>8861813
Haha, I respect that Wendy's is better than McDonald's and Burger King but it's not even a competition between it and 5Guys.

>the cost argument again
Are you seriously incomprehensibly poor to the point that a 8 dollar burger is going to break the bank?

>>8861820
8$ Is enough for just the burger. You're not getting a drink or fries with it.

You don't have to pretend it's cheap anon. We all know it's expensive as fuck.

For 8 bucks you could get like 8 patties at any grocery store any ways so yes it's a bit pricey ya fag

>>8861830
Oh damn bro I didn't mean to upset you or anything. Sorry dude, I've been poor before too I just make $20+ per hr full time now.

Yeah I mean, if you make min wage or you're part time employed then 12 dollars a meal can add up but you're not really supposed to eat burgers and fries that often anyway.

I work there. The food is overpriced but relatively good for fast food. Everything is made right when you order it and it's all fresh. That doesn't mean it's the best though.

>>8861820
I'm a different guy but I get $240 a year in food stamps, so yes, $8 is 13 days worth, and if you think I'm buying a 8 dollar burger, even if I could buy hot food, I'm not.

but its nice if I'm out and there is one close by and I'm hungry

>>8861856
kek. Having worked in retail, I'll bet they hear that kind of shit at least 10 times a day. It'so funny, people think they are being so fucking original with these type comments and you're supposed to smile and play along but it gets to the point where you just want to wearily frown and shake your head.

Dealing with the public continually is the worst fucking hell you'll ever experience.

5 guys is fine but not worth it. Having experimented with replicating fast food at home, 5 guys is by far the easiest to replicate and thus significantly cheaper to just make it at home.

They charge premium for literally run of the mill homemade smash burgers. At least with mcdonalds if that's what you're craving there's only one way to get a mcd burger making it much more worth it then 5 gays

>>8861560
Regular fries are too large, milkshake is overkill given that the other two items equate to almost 2000 calories...get a tap water.

I can many places, and the point is that it's massively overpriced for what you get. "Real" fast food is less than 1/3rd of the price and 75% as good, Restaurant food is 120-150% of the price and at least 3x as good. 5 Guys would need to cost half of what it does now to be a good value.

>>8862254
You're stating entirly false statistics you pulled out of your ass to justify having shit taste and being poor as fuck.

8 dollars for the best chain burger. And btw it's not fast food it's quick casual so you look pretty dumb saying it's "not real fast food" that's like saying a fine dining restaurant "isn't really family style"

>>8859839
Hardly.

>>8862319
8$ for just a burger is pricey and getting a full meal for 12-15$ Is pricey as shit for casual dining. See, noodle, chipotle, smash burger, just about anywhere else

>>8862319
I guarantee you that I spend more on food than you, both food that I prepare and food that I order. That has nothing to do with whether Five Guys is worth what you pay for it. Five Guys is fast food, it's just slow and expensive fast food which is why I called it fast derisively since fast food is supposed to be fast and cheap.

"Fast Casual" is a marketing term to trick you into overspending and getting ripped off, so I don't know why you'd be proud of buying into it. Five Guys is a bad chain, only idiots who don't know any better or want to pretend like they're above the people who eat at McDonalds go there.

I like five guys because of the face to face communication. You can tell them exactly what you want and have a nice conversation. The employees seem happy, not like mcslave employees just trying to keep up.

The ingredients are fresh and well proportioned and the fries are the best. But let's not forget DEM PEANUTS!

But there was no argument. Five Guys is boring bland overpriced food.

>>8862901
Over priced compared to what?

Over priced implies that it isn't worth the money, which I disagree with. It's less expensive than a sit down restaurant and or comparable quality. It's more expensive than McDonald's, but far surperior.

>>8862913
...O-ok I guess I win. HaHAA 5Guys truly is the best burger chain.

>>8862913
>It's less expensive than a sit down restaurant
This is where you are wrong

>>8862958
Go ahead and provide examples. A burger from 5 guys is like 6 bucks.

At a sit down restaursnt you'll spend that on drinks and tips.

>>8862971
I say sit down restaurant but 5 Guys is actually a sit down restaurant too just that they keep prices low by not paying someone to bring your food to you. Mine even has a nice view of the beach. Mm.

Truly the best of both worlds.

>>8859839
They're pretty damn good. Don't be a total glutton and you can get out for $5-7 with great toppings. Everytime I've ordered a "small fry", they put in a cup of fries with just as many / more laying in the bag.

>>8863038
Is this price somehow too much for you? The burgers are massive and you get a plethora of toppings for free.

>>8862848
You're joking, right? i hate that nonsense. I'm not in there for a dining experience, if I'm getting a burger, it's because I'm in a rush or I want something cheap. Don't faff around and pretend to be my friend when we both know you don't want to do that and I just want my food.

>>8862913

8 dollars for a burger is too much? That's the same price as a Wendy's Dave's burger and then you get all the toppings you want free. Besides, it's only a couple bucks more than anywhere else. And you're getting your money's worth.

It's almost making me mad to see all these people saying 8 buckaroos is too much. Makes me wanna call you poor.

13 dollars for a burger. Seeing as I can make a burger that's far better for a fraction of the cost, and there's plenty of cheaper options that will fill you up, or plenty of nicer stuff around for the price, it's not worth it.

I just made my own lettuce wrapped bacon cheese smash burger, and it basically tastes IDENTICAL to five guys and cost me 1/4 of the price

as soon as you put it on the pan, press it down as hard as you can for 30 seconds

when you flip, throw the cheese on, wait a minute, then its done

voila

>>8863092
Look you can blow me if you're gonna keep posting like a mad faggot.

>>8863094

I use 80/20, I make sure its loose and not too tight packed, salt and pepper all the meat before I form the patties, and pat it dry before it goes on the pan

you know its ready to flip when the very outside starts to get that crust, usually takes about a minute or more depending on your heat. they're easy to overcook because they are so thin

>>8863107

ok fair enough, among burger chains, I'd pick five guys, but that is only because I like smash burgers, in n out at a close second (also a smash burger)

if we were going with just classic burgers non smash, for me, it's mcdonalds burgers

the worst burgers are at places like applebees, chili's, etc.

>>8863107
>Where do you buy a better burger for 10 dollars?

Wendy's Half lb double and Culvers bacon deluxe triple. They taste better, use fresher ingredients, and here's the kicker, costs about 3 dollars cheaper per burger.

I feel horribly sorry for people who think this place is any good. They must have lived a life of even shittier food to think Five Guys is any good.

>>8859839

I know an Indian couple that own 8 five guys locations. We like to joke that they own 40 guys.

I gotta be honest with you. I have never ever heard of Culver's before. Is it regional? Tell me about it I'm intrigued.

>>8863075
Where I live (flyover) you can get a half pound steak burger made by a chef with things like fresh onion straws, blue cheese, or avocado/ Southwest theme for around $9 to $12 at most. This is why people bitch about five guys. The food is so mediocre compared to other things we have available at comparable price

>>8863116
Why does no one ever post about Smash Burger? That chain is decent enough and cheaper than five guys

>>8863229
5 Guys doesn't have to be the best fast food. They don't have to be the best quick casual. Because they're the best of both. Best burger chain all together.

>>8859839
literally the only fast food place I've ever been to that I got a food high coming back from

Its fucking expensive but damn is it good

The Canjun fries are dank

Five Guys is alright, but they're the weakest of the "upscale" burger joints. Habit, In n Out, Fatburger and Smashburger are all better.

The burgers are ok but the fries are terrible, always soggy as shit and saltier than fucking hell. If they're gonna deep fry them they could at least be crisp.

>>8859839
>Oh boy it sure is great waiting twenty minutes and paying as many dollars for a slightly above average """"""""""""""fast"""""""""""""" food burger!

>>8859849
Order anything with anything on it - it all tastes the same and the fries are limp and greasy though it depends which one you go to as to what extent that is true.

They would do well to season their meat and offer other choices for cheese. All those toppings - they don't all go with Kraft Singles.

>>8861023
This.

Also, you are paying for the gimmick of a shit ton of fries but the quality of the fries is typically sub-par in flavor and texture. Food quality (I.e. Quality of produce) is probably good but the fries are bland, limp, and greasy).

>>8861773
Which Five Guys do you go to that it's so consistently good? If it is just that YOU think they are that consistently "flawless" then I wonder about the other food you eat.

Nah. Im an overweight fuck who can eat a lot of food and eating their little cheeseburger or baconcheeseburger with fries almost makes me sick with how much food there is.
