had lunch at one today, damn good burger and a whole boat load of fries
I'm pretty impressed with that chain, they seem the spend their money only on the necessary things and not on stupid shit. The places seem to advertise themselves now if only they would build one back in Minot I'd be set |
| My old boss was life long friends with a few of the brothers that make up Five Guys so I've worked on a few of their homes. All really nice guys and very pro 2A. I know for a fact one of the brothers used to carry a Glock 20 dipped in realtree camo, he was talking about replacing it with a Khar 40 like my boss carried. |

Quoted: Quoted: I love Five Guys. I don't eat out often so an extra couple bucks for a burger isn't really a big deal, but I think it's worth it for all the toppings you can get and flavors you can add to sodas. love the Raspberry Coke. Lime Coke was one of my favorite sodas, so I usually get that since they don't make it anymore except for the Diet version. |
EZ take out or in and out FTW

Quoted: Quoted: $12 bucks for a burger, fries and a coke just ain't cutting it. Every now and again I will but then I remember why I don't more often.  I fed my entire family, [4] last Friday night for 35 bucks at 5 guys.That's still almost $9 per person. For fast food in a paper sack. And I bet not everybody got the double burgers. And if you've been there before, you've figured out that one order of fries will feed 2-4 people. If someone goes there by themselves, orders a double burger, "small" fries, and a drink, they're laying down a lot of money. |

Quoted: We just got one last week. Haven't been yet. I was going to post my own thread. So how about it? Any Good? We have Sonic, In-and Out, Whataburger, Fuddrucker's and all the national chains.  http://www.futuregamez.net/movies/pulpfiction/pulpfiction6.jpg |

I have a $2000 rifle but can't afford a $12 meal. 
It's garbage, I'd rather have <insert obscure, family-owned chain that only has 5 restaurants that no one here has ever heard of> |

Gimme a fucking break.
The microwave White Castle burgers from the freezer aisle, even if freezer burnt and I have no cheese in the house, are better than five guys' shitburgers. Imagine pursing your lips around a festering, pus-ooozing sore on the end of a dangling, inflamed and odorous hemorrhoid, which dangles from the sphincter of Michele Obama's leathery anus. Squeeze your lips on that sore, and suck the pus out of that thing with the same fervor as if you were sucking an engorged clitoris. You will then know what it's like to eat a five guys burger. |

Imagine pursing your lips around a festering, pus-ooozing sore on the end of a dangling, inflamed and odorous hemorrhoid, which dangles from the sphincter of Michele Obama's leathery anus.

And... I am done eating my first meal today. 15 hours on the clock tomorrow.

For what it is, it's a bit over priced, but so are a lot of things.
I had it once and I'll definitely go again. Wouldn't do it on a regular basic, more for health reasons than because of the price or the quality. If you haven't been it's worth a try. I liked my burger and look forward to the next. |

Five Guys = Wendy's burger's at twice the price. And Wendy's fries and drinks are better.
And most Five Guys these days don't encourage diners to eat out of the peanut barrel and throw the shells all over the place. That was pretty much the gross novelty upon which they built their reputation. That and the grease-laden paper bags they'd serve everything in. Eating there was pretty much an act of daring each other to eat something nasty in nasty surroundings. |
