My only curant tip would be to avoid the got cross buns.

Serioulsy gross..

Yeah... I tried the hot cross pie.. Like the apple pie but hot cross bun flavored.

Utterly gross. Avoid!

Double quarter pounder deluxe is one of the GOATs

Double quarter pounder deluxe is one of the GOATs

I had one yesterday, didn’t order it just a standard but was given a double by mistake. I should be grateful and yes I didn’t have to eat it all but I did and seriously regretted it. The meat to bun ratio is well off and it was a heart attack in a bun! It’s put me off McDees for some time.

I agree actually.. Quarter pounder with cheese is a good ratio.. The double is too much.

Had one + a hamburger yesterday and some fries...needed a breather before tackling the Galaxy Pie thing (which is pretty bang average)

 

[Feek]

I enjoyed a double cheeseburger (no pickle) today.

Was in Norwich yesterday and we went for a 5 Guys. 1 x cheeseburger, 1 x cheese dog, 1 x veggie burger, fries, 2 x cokes and a milkshake - £45!!!!

Was excellent though.

Ah, rookie mistake, fries aren't included and no 'Meal Deals'. We spent £18 on fries . Note for future, get a large fries and share! We don't usually visit Five Guys as there aren't any near us.

Yeah one large fries would probably ha e been enough.

You can't compare it to McDonald's though, it's like comparing poo to chocolate cake.

I put the spaghetti (mixed with mayo and chilli sauce) in a bowl on the plate, with the fish and potato wedges sperate on the plate.
The spaghetti is then used almost like a dip and finished after the fish and potato is eaten.

What did I just read lol

 

[Brazo]

Five guys is amazing, literally the best burger in the world up until the point they wrap it in foil. It then sweats big time, the bun turns into wallpaper paste and the burger steams and loses all of its ‘flame grilling’ and tastes ‘boiled’! Absolute rank unless you can catch it before they wrap it in foil!

@ivrytwr3

Am I reading this right? Bacon in a milkshake??!?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

Yes, it’s a not that uncommon flavour.

 

[cheesefest]

Has anyone tried a bacon milkshake?

 

[cheesefest]

Had 5 Guys a few years back and you need a mortgage!

Love playing with the Freestyle machine. Grape Sprite!

Then there’s the peanuts in the shells.

 

[BUDFORCE]

I only had 5 guys once I think it's well overrated.

Yup is better than McDonald's but you get McDonald's because it's quick and cheap.

Five guys is expensive, we waited ages, and for literally an extra couple of quid you can just get a burger as a sit down meal in a pub or restaurant, I just don't understand why they have this middle ground.

It is daft... You can get a steak dinner at my local pub/restaurant for that sort of money...

 

[Bubo]

I assume they are called 5 Guys because you need the combined income of five working adult men in order to be able to afford their cheapest burger?
