Im a manager at a five guys in Michigan and this video is pretty spot on about the quality we put into our food. There’s a ton that goes into it like the fact that managers come in as early at 7 am to prep the fresh food that we serve everyday even though we open at 11 am
I'm going back to work at a local Five Guys after several years, and I'm really excited. I've been in the restaurant business a long time, but I am proud of every burger at Five Guys, and our guests seem to agree.
I was very disappointed after trying Five Guys yesterday- the cheese,put so much liquid into the sandwich that the bun got wrecked right away- they need bigeer buns that don't fall apart right away.
Back in 2006 one of my friends from high school used to work there. They got the best burgers I've tried so far. And their fries are awesome and always fresh
I won't lie Five Guys is the best burger chain I've ever had. I've had many different burgers but this chain is actually one of the few things that make me feel that the extra money I am pouring into for fast food is worth it. Yes it's expensive but from my overall experience, it has always been worth it. The burgers, fries, and shakes keep me coming every Friday after work.
I can't imagine how you can think a grease burger and sog fries "is the best burger chain I've ever had." I think you meant to say, "this is the best burger and fries meal I've ever had at a burger chain restaurant." This is the worst stuff any corporation can hoist on American consumers. Disgusting.
@@originalfiremancancelled7303 I would assume better than McD or BK, tho I've never worked at either. I work at a franchise Five Guys, which is also super different from corporate stores. All in all, from all the people I work with they seem to like it. Usually a chill atmosphere and you are allowed 1 free meal every shift if you want it.
@@lilchristuten7568 What I meant was a traditional table service restaurant where one is seated, places orders and is served by a wait staff. If you think that the price of five guys is "compatibly the same" to such an establishment you a) can't afford to eat at a place that charges more than $20 for a burger (and it's often worth it because they have custom blends of beef in house that they ground daily) and b) have a poor command of the English language. I can only wish you well and hope that you have the opportunity to experience the next level of culinary excellence. As well as, you know, learning English.
Five guys food isn't expensive. It's just that quality, fresh ingredients cost more. Plus everything is huggeeee in there. Burgers, fries, free peanuts everything!
So far the best burger I ever had is a Five Guy's burger. They don't freeze any of their beef and everything is cooked to order. Everything is freshly made. A little pricey but you get what you pay for. Delicious!
I've been to McD's before and the one lady I've noticed she wanted toppings like five guys but every little thing she wanted on there was added about 50 cents more Five Guys it's already included with the price so whether you want everything on the toppings or not you're going to get the full price or not. They're fries are the bomb no matter what shows on the bag I bought a large fries and they still threw in extras I love them so much
Another reason they are so good is that the company really cares about the quality of their product. Each location is mystery (sometimes called secret) shopped TWICE a week. I know this because I am a shopper and rate a few of my local 5 Guys a few times a month. The good thing about doing this is it's a free DELICIOUS meal. The bad thing is all the weight I've gained.
I love 5 guys, the first time I went I was like "how did they make this so fast and so good??" Also the cajun fries hit the spot when I'm in the mood for something spicy.
I ordered Five Guys last week via Door Dash. I had a large fries, my wife got the small. Both cups were full to overflowing with the bag filled with more. It was like getting 3 large fries.
the Pac Mac Burger from La Belle et la Boeuf, a Quebec-based restaurant. the bun is made of mac ‘n cheese patties and contains smoked bacon, beef patties, cheddar cheese, mac ‘n cheese, grilled onions, red onion and mayonnaise. Unless you want me to talk about their Epic Burger: 4 5oz beef patties with lots of brie cheese, lots of smoked bacon, fried kit kats, melted peanurt butter with mushroom sauce and porto. And they give you a bottle of Pepto Bismol with the Epic Burger. I used to make a burger which included cheese sticks, 2 beef patties, fried onions, bacon, pickles, lettuce, tomato, spicy mayonnaise, Swiss cheese (but I'm not sure)
I always get the same thing at five guys. Mayo bbq sauté onions pickles lettuce jalapeños. Never forget to take those peanuts with you lol. I love dipping my fries in malt vinegar. I have the strange tastebuds 😆
The grilled cheese is for the children who don't need $7+ sandwich. You can also order toppings for the grilled cheese, have them inside the sandwich, or added on top, or on the side. It's a good grilled cheese, and with all those tons of toppings, it's a good adult sandwich, too... for under five bucks, in my area.
The reason they only do their patties well done is because ground beef isn’t supposed to be cooked or grilled medium rare, rare, etc. It’s only supposed to be cooked well done because of the cut of meat.
lived in Northern Virginia. for the longest time we had just one. Arlandria which is Alexandria and Arlington. People would fight DC traffic to get burgers. This was early 1970s . Then it started growing and more and more stores popped up. I live in the South and 5 guys are everywhere now. I'll still drive 20 miles and past every other burger joint to get a more expensive burger with a little. extra. personal service.My second choice is a local chain. called Pals. Fastest drive thru ever
One just opened in my city, and naturally, I had high expectations. I gave them a try, and found the burgers to be fairly decent to good for a franchise, but there was absolutely nothing outstanding about them. Unfortunately, because of the price, I won't be going back very often.
Ive tried it to in New York. Its just that everyone is used to crappy burgers. Five guys is not that good. Go to a proper restaurant with a proper chef and you will get a massively delicious burger.
Your video sounds like a Five Guys Burger commercial. I started cooking lessons at age seven. My first culinary mentor was a honors (cooking and baking) graduate of Le Cordon Bleu - Paris (France). I'm 77 years young. I've been making burgers for 65 years. I've also been making my buns from scratch for 65 years. There's a "Five Guys Burger" place in a strip mall shopping center that is within 5 minutes driving time from our house. We, the wife and I, have eaten there once -- we were not favorably impressed.
Likewise. Their burgers are average at best. There is a local place nearby me where they have a wood-fired grill. They blow Five Guys out of the water.
TBH, five huge burgers will cost you 10-12 bucks just for the quality beef. I go with the Costco Grass-fed 1/3 pound patties at $4/lb, which is a bit less, but it's the best price I've ever seen. Typically, you'll pay at least 50% more, especially if you want fresh.
This is best burger place ever. There is one that is close by my work. I go there everyday for lunch and it’s so good. I don’t mind paying the extra money. When I go there they always know what I want.
Too expensive, I make my own after experimenting my favorite burgers in my short 60 years of life,... my flavor target is a late 60s early 70s western burger from Doggy Diner in San Francisco. No, it had no bacon or onion ring or barbecue sauce on the burger. Absolutely awesome burger 🍔. I wonder if anyone out there remembers. I’ve never had another like it. Mine comes close because I try very hard to duplicate from my memory. I can’t say if I’ve achieved it, something about being there I suppose. I believe it cost $1.49. No shit!
There is a place in Lincoln City, Oregon with the best burgers on the Oregon Coast and quite possibly the best in Oregon. Its called Hwy 101 Burgers. They serve burgers, fries, milkshakes, and soft drinks. The burgers are made from fresh meat, the fries are cut daily from fresh potatoes. The burgers are always juicy and the fries are always crispy. They serve a 101 cheeseburger that has one beef patty and one slice of cheese all the way up to a 404 burger. Which has 4 patties and 4 slices of cheese. Simply the best! Oh yes, the little dish of fry sauce has your name written on it with ketchup or maybe a peace symbol.
Meat isn't that pink unless it has a high fat content. I've tried all kinds of meat blends, but keep going back to plain ground Scotch fillet (rib eye) with a decent amount of marbling. Quality of beef is the number 1 factor that determines if a burger is good or not. Buy it from a butcher rather than in bulk from the supermarket. Always grind it yourself, even if you only have a food processor
They are closing most of franchises in Fayetteville, NC. Only one left in town, I always thought that if they gave a economical combo price, it might be a treat every once in awhile for a family.
I've been in one in London a few days ago and it was ok. The one in King's Cross was packed. But yeah, it's quite expensive and "very american". Loved the burgers and fries.
Yeah I've actually never seen one here in the north of England. Not bothered though cause I get my burgers and fries at a local Asian take-out and it's delicious! Juicy meat, a fluffy bun and perfectly done toppings with spicy ketchup and awesome seasoned fries! :) I did go to an American restaurant once and tried this monster sized burger, and it was too sweet and greasy for my liking
I don't care what nobody to says I can go to the grocery store and get a pound or two of ground beef or some patties already made up And seasoned and make my own burgers for 2 weeks without paying exorbitant prices for a meal
Every time I get bacon from five guy's it always burnt. But their burgers are fantastic I just don't get bacon on them anymore. They can cook a good hamburger but they don't know how to cook bacon.
One big problem... Ever throw a burger or steak on the grill without salt and pepper on it? Probably not, but they do. All the toppings are there just to make the flavorless pice of meat taste good.
In the U.K a large meal is about £15 which is way too pricey when you can buy a 6 fresh quarter pounders from the local supermarket for the same price.
Every five guy burger I've had, won't go there anymore, has been torched beyond belief. I asked the manager why, he said Co. Policy have to be well done. Which as a chef I understand. But well done and still juicy is not what they do. Torched is what they do.
The BEST BURGER, FRIES, & SHAKES. I LOVE THEIR FOOD, ITS ALWAYS FRESH N WATCHING IT BEING MADE, IM CERTAIN IS FRESHER N CLEAN. THE STAFF IS VERY FRIENDLY. WHEN IVE CHOSEN TO SIT N EAT INSIDE, ITS ALWAYS CLEAN N COMFORTABLE😊😊😊😊😊😊😊.
I would have to disagree. I tried twice at two diff locations, they delivered twice the same burned smelling tasteless fries. Burnt browned fries arent my thing. ....and then the burger....fail
Five Guys are good but they are way overpriced. $15.00 for a combo is just way too much. I can go to Fuddrucker's and get at half-pound burger combo with a premium/extra topping for around that price, which is a much better value.
watagump1 that’s what you pay for when it’s a quality burger. Hell even a McDonalds Big Mac combo is about 11-$12 cdn now. Pay a few more bucks for better quality and don’t eat out so much.
Matt Hoffman let these people eat McDonald’s lol. I like McDs when I need a quick bite. I take time out of my day to go to 5 guys. I don’t care if it’s more expensive it’s BETTER than McDs. Lol people got me heated saying McDs the best here lmao..
8:45 we Dont have timers but we have something called ticket time which is a certain time we need to sell the order which is 5-8 mins of when we get the order to the kitchen
Definitely NOT worth the money. If you want just a great Hamburger In N Out is the best. But if you want other stuff on your burger like bacon, etc... then the Habit. And five guys are not value. It is a mortgage.
tbh, i ate five guys once, and i didnt think it was so good.. it was expensive and just plain deacent burger. This was in england tho, not sure if it makes a big difference from england to the us
@@kingzetsy how much did it cost you. I live in the north of England and I just stick to my local Asian take-out for the best burgers and fries I ever had. I typically get a spicy double chicken fillet burger with seasoned fries and it costs me £5 and it's delicious :) I've tried American burgers and they're too sweet and greasy
@@caramelcupcake1275 i think it was around 15 £ for the burger and then u had to pay extra for fries and stuff, dont quote me cuz this is a long time ago and i camt remember exactly
I dont see a consistency in quality at 5 guys. I had one burger perfectly cooked, juicy,very good. Then had 3 dry over cooked burgers from 5 guys. If they are going to cost you 35 bucks to eat there. They better be consistent and delicious every damn time. Dennys, never had a burger that wasnt juicy there, for cheaper than 5 guys, and a bigger burger.
Five Guys burgers are fantastic and their jalapeños are fresh, not pickled! The only thing they should change is to use real cheese instead of processed. For their price it should be real.
I think all the food is great. Just don't visit often because the prices are too steep for me . Another favorite is Wayback Burgers, good old fashioned food !
Okay... so... I felt the need to address this... 0:13 "Focusing on what's important": Okay, so they won some awards. Cool deal. It's true that having a smaller menu that puts focus on fewer things can do them with better quality, than a restaurant that has a menu of several pages. That's a good reason for burgers and fries tasting good. The only problem is: Why do these burgers cost nearly $8 in my state? (No sales tax) 1:35 "15 different toppings": And here is the reason why the burgers are so expensive. You are paying for all 15 toppings, even though you'll probably only choose a few of them. You still paid for the (insert topping here) that you chose not to get. Feel ripped off now? If for example, you ordered a Famous Star with cheese from Carls' Jr and ask for no onions and tomato on it, you would still pay the same price instead of getting it cheaper because you paid for the "option" to have those toppings... even though you don't want those options. It's a crummy deal. Someone shouldn't have to pay for something they don't want.

They have the ice cream in the Refrigerator, then when they put the milkshake mix in the Shake machine, the machine make it colder
Well your slow
It Is Worth The Wait Especially If The Burger Is Fresh. (Nothing Is Frozen Including The Hamburger Patty)
My favorite part is when I walk in and see the bags of potatoes with their origin on the bag. You know you're getting great quality food there
They are closing most of franchises in Fayetteville, NC. Only one left in town, I always thought that if they gave a economical combo price, it might be a treat every once in awhile for a family.
My local one just closed down after 5 years, they're not doing well in the UK
I've been in one in London a few days ago and it was ok. The one in King's Cross was packed. But yeah, it's quite expensive and "very american". Loved the burgers and fries.
Yeah I've actually never seen one here in the north of England. Not bothered though cause I get my burgers and fries at a local Asian take-out and it's delicious! Juicy meat, a fluffy bun and perfectly done toppings with spicy ketchup and awesome seasoned fries! :) I did go to an American restaurant once and tried this monster sized burger, and it was too sweet and greasy for my liking
Lucky, I wish we could get rid of it here.
jlx011 The Covent Garden branch is near my work. It's awful. Always packed with tourists, chaos inside, and the fries are always burned.
This video is true my mangers be dancing and told me the same thing 🤣🤣🤣 nobody is going to wanna eat if you looking mad or bored lol
I actually prefer their hotdogs
they are really good
I don't care what nobody to says
I can go to the grocery store and get a pound or two of ground beef or some patties already made up
And seasoned and make my own burgers for 2 weeks without paying exorbitant prices for a meal
Americans eat 50 billion burgers a year! That’s like a burger every other day per person!
Or 5 per day for some people, and you can tell who they are.
Every time I get bacon from five guy's it always burnt. But their burgers are fantastic I just don't get bacon on them anymore. They can cook a good hamburger but they don't know how to cook bacon.
The bacon is always pretty crispy.
5 guys - hey give me everything you got on my burger.
Me -5 minutes later biggest best burger 🍔 ever
One big problem... Ever throw a burger or steak on the grill without salt and pepper on it? Probably not, but they do. All the toppings are there just to make the flavorless pice of meat taste good.
I get every topping except relish....its heaven
In the U.K a large meal is about £15 which is way too pricey when you can buy a 6 fresh quarter pounders from the local supermarket for the same price.
They’re kind of just okay though...? Even their fries were meh.. not sure if it’s just the location I went to or not.
kimberly miller I agree totally, I thought the burger looked squashed and messy. Was expensive too
They are just OK in my city too, so, it's not just the location.
Yes, I've been to three different locations, and have been consistently unimpressed. soggy burger and fries not crispy.
Every five guy burger I've had, won't go there anymore, has been torched beyond belief. I asked the manager why, he said Co. Policy have to be well done. Which as a chef I understand. But well done and still juicy is not what they do. Torched is what they do.
Ive never been there, should i give it a try
Not worth the cash but a fun experience.
its ok. but doesnt compare to in&out
@@andym28 order a grilled cheese with a patty(or two). That is the ultimate five guys experience
Yes
In and out is very over rated. In and out is not much different than McDonald's. 5 guys is way better.
I've been with five guys on and off for about 8 years. Everything about this video is spot on.
Damn boy you gay
@@kaiokee your page is a joke 😂
@@James_r4276 page?
5guys was great at first, but now their prices are insane. I used to go all the time; now, I haven't been in quite awhile.
I like the vegan bacon clip. I would love to do the same thing at the grocery store!
🤷 that's why I bring my five family members to five guys🤣
The BEST BURGER, FRIES, & SHAKES. I LOVE THEIR FOOD, ITS ALWAYS FRESH N WATCHING IT BEING MADE, IM CERTAIN IS FRESHER N CLEAN. THE STAFF IS VERY FRIENDLY. WHEN IVE CHOSEN TO SIT N EAT INSIDE, ITS ALWAYS CLEAN N COMFORTABLE😊😊😊😊😊😊😊.
They have the best French fries I've ever had.
Oooh boy, their Cajun fries are my absolute favorite.
I would have to disagree. I tried twice at two diff locations, they delivered twice the same burned smelling tasteless fries. Burnt browned fries arent my thing. ....and then the burger....fail
It's because they use peanut oil the best way to fry fries
Eng Xiong lol you’re a clown
So true
Five Guys are good but they are way overpriced. $15.00 for a combo is just way too much. I can go to Fuddrucker's and get at half-pound burger combo with a premium/extra topping for around that price, which is a much better value.
Every time i go to five guys i walk out of there thinking NEVER AGAIN
but then i eventually go back again...
M Tomo why do you think “NEVER AGAIN” for? Lmaoooooooooo
@@TheUnknownShadow03 probably cause they're expensive af 😂😂
You should listen to that voice that says never go back
@@TheUnknownShadow03 Because they are overpriced and awful?
Don't forget, you can have your green peppers, jalapinos, or pickles grilled as well. I like grilled pickles on my burger.
Over $17 here for a combo.
Overpriced I’ll go to burger am I
watagump1 that’s what you pay for when it’s a quality burger. Hell even a McDonalds Big Mac combo is about 11-$12 cdn now. Pay a few more bucks for better quality and don’t eat out so much.
Matt Hoffman let these people eat McDonald’s lol. I like McDs when I need a quick bite. I take time out of my day to go to 5 guys. I don’t care if it’s more expensive it’s BETTER than McDs. Lol people got me heated saying McDs the best here lmao..
8:45 we Dont have timers but we have something called ticket time which is a certain time we need to sell the order which is 5-8 mins of when we get the order to the kitchen
Depents On The Cooks😤
Definitely NOT worth the money. If you want just a great Hamburger In N Out is the best. But if you want other stuff on your burger like bacon, etc... then the Habit. And five guys are not value. It is a mortgage.
5 guys is good but Whataburger is still amazing.
15 topping choices means there are 1,307,674,368,000 possible combinations to choose from. This is why I take so long to order.
tbh, i ate five guys once, and i didnt think it was so good.. it was expensive and just plain deacent burger.
This was in england tho, not sure if it makes a big difference from england to the us
I think it was the cheese that i didnt like at all, it was some type of cheddar i think
@@kingzetsy how much did it cost you. I live in the north of England and I just stick to my local Asian take-out for the best burgers and fries I ever had. I typically get a spicy double chicken fillet burger with seasoned fries and it costs me £5 and it's delicious :)
I've tried American burgers and they're too sweet and greasy
@@caramelcupcake1275 i think it was around 15 £ for the burger and then u had to pay extra for fries and stuff, dont quote me cuz this is a long time ago and i camt remember exactly
@@kingzetsy no that's sounds legit cause the few times I had American burgers they cost £13 with fries and it wasn't even good. Total rip off
@@caramelcupcake1275 wtf why is it so expensive to get burgers in England?
East and west coast: arguing over In and Out and Shack Shack.
Midwest: Yo, I got Five guys,culvers and OG DQ all on the same block.... sup
Freddys is typing....
I've only ever at FG once and the burger was super bland.
I dont see a consistency in quality at 5 guys. I had one burger perfectly cooked, juicy,very good. Then had 3 dry over cooked burgers from 5 guys. If they are going to cost you 35 bucks to eat there. They better be consistent and delicious every damn time. Dennys, never had a burger that wasnt juicy there, for cheaper than 5 guys, and a bigger burger.
When you live in a country with no five guys and in n out
*cri*
Same...the closest one to me is in italy and that's like a 7 hour trip
Same. Much cri.
There’s a million five guys near me. One being 15 minutes out.
At 6.15 I LOVE what the guy does to the veg bacon.
Five Guys burgers are fantastic and their jalapeños are fresh, not pickled! The only thing they should change is to use real cheese instead of processed. For their price it should be real.
Sorry, processed American cheese is the only thing that should be on a burger. It may not be real, but it’s delicious.
I think all the food is great. Just don't visit often because the prices are too steep for me . Another favorite is Wayback Burgers, good old fashioned food !
Five guys versus in and out we got both within a mile of each other...like it or not five guys wins!!!....
James Appel
Burger in a can....Mmmm Mmmm Good!!!...🤣🤣🤣
James Appel
I’ll check it out...🤙😎🤘
James Appel
Yeah that’s hilarious kind of like Sling Blade want six or eight cans of that potted meat!!!...
Okay... so... I felt the need to address this...
0:13 "Focusing on what's important": Okay, so they won some awards. Cool deal. It's true that having a smaller menu that puts focus on fewer things can do them with better quality, than a restaurant that has a menu of several pages.
That's a good reason for burgers and fries tasting good. The only problem is: Why do these burgers cost nearly $8 in my state? (No sales tax)
1:35 "15 different toppings": And here is the reason why the burgers are so expensive. You are paying for all 15 toppings, even though you'll probably only choose a few of them. You still paid for the (insert topping here) that you chose not to get. Feel ripped off now?
If for example, you ordered a Famous Star with cheese from Carls' Jr and ask for no onions and tomato on it, you would still pay the same price instead of getting it cheaper because you paid for the "option" to have those toppings... even though you don't want those options.
It's a crummy deal. Someone shouldn't have to pay for something they don't want.
It's decent but can get two better cheeseburger meals from a local Cafe for the same price.
Exactly. Most any local restaurant that's able to stay in business has better burgers than any of the chains.
