*Five Guys prices are insane, to some. Others disagree. Some fear it will make them fat

Title edited for clarity.
I’m sure this is common knowledge, but I don’t eat 5 Guys often. Really the only time I’ve ever eaten it was in airports, where you’re accustomed to getting gouged. Me and small ball just stopped at one in West Monroe. 2 bacon cheeseburgers, 1 regular fry, 1 hot dog, 1 medium milkshake. $40. Holy shite!

I went a couple years ago and was shocked by how expensive it was for a fast food place

How do they stay in business? You can get a restaurant meal cheaper than that.

I feel violated. You shouldn’t spend $20/head on lunch at a place that doesn’t offer beer smh

Not only that, they don’t season their patties. At all. When I read that, I realized why I always found their burgers lacking.

Doesn’t sound that outrageous to me. Whether it’s worth it or not is a matter of opinion I suppose.

Didn't you notice the prices before ordering? They don't lock the door behind you.

2 little hamburgers
1 regular fry (to split)
2 drinks
$11/ head that would feed most normal sized adults
Ya did add an extra patty, cheese, and bacon to the burgers, an extra hot dog and a milkshake

That's why they stack all that junk on top of them so you don't notice what you're eating is nothing more than Sonic.

No. I sent my kid in and told him to get me a bacon cheeseburger and fries. Which he did. And came back with a receipt for $40.

That is easily enough food for 3 people....... So $13 a head for lunch..... A little stiff for a burger joint, but it is much better than the other major burger joints.

At least Sonic uses salt and pepper!

I’ve said this in other threads, but you shouldn’t label something “little burger” if it’s actually a standard adult sized burger. The name gives anyone who hasn’t been there the impression that it’s the children’s menu. It’s intentionally misleading.
Once you’ve learned, though, yeah it’s not as a bad deal.

You shouldnt need to get enough to feed a family of 4 for lunch. Yes, it's a little high, but you also bought like 10,000 calories of food

Little bacon burger with little cajun fries and a drink is 13$ for me. And its worth every penny. Nothing on their menu is overpriced.

Why? Because I think that $40 for food enough to feed three people isn’t outrageous? I rarely eat at those types of places(I occasionally get Shake Shack), but you kind of have to know going in that they’re not a value meal type place.
Again, I don’t think you’re getting some great value, but I don’t find the prices shocking.

I got a fricking burger and fries and drank it with a bottle of Ozarka. Where is this huge quantity of food you’re talking about. A 14 year old got a burger and a hotdog. Are you people that big of poons?

Right
And every AM they’re chopping fresh produce, making patties, slicing potatoes, and they’re staffed enough to get you that food in 5 minutes. Someone has to pay for that
