    Five Guys had crazy prices from the start and it marketed itself as NOT being fast food.

    And it always sucked. Premium prices on garbage food.

        All fast food burgers suck so “the best fast food burger” is a very low bar…especially when they’re charging restaurant prices…and they’re not all that fast at making it. 50% higher cost for a 10% better burger, I’ll pass.

        It’s worse than a cheaper burger from a non-chain restaurant. And it’s WAY worse than a comparably-priced one.

          I would rather eat a Five Guys burger than most if not any non-chain restaurant burgers as well. They are pretty topnotch. I honestly can’t think of a better burger that isn’t homemade.

            Man, I feel sorry for the food situation out there then! I’ve never lived far from delicious restaurants.

              Ive got plenty of delicious restaurants around haha. I’ve never been that impressed with a restaurant burger though, TBH. And seriously, FG burgers are damn good. Char grilled high quality beef made to order. What’s not to like? You’re acting like it’s McDonald’s quality. Can you show me an example that beats it?

                In the “fast food” category specifically? I think Culvers and Sonic are both better but I don’t really eat red meat much anymore.
