Quality effects costs. The cleanliness of the establishment. Always have to remember that you get what you pay for. I love their food but have to remember that it is not a regular stop for me. When I see those fry prices I cringe, but when I see those fresh potatoes from Idaho I know what I am getting. They do a great job. Great review.
We haven't been to Five Guys in years. I was shocked at the prices. I always wonder when they are voted number one who voted and how long ago. Y'all stay warm. God Bless and safe travels.
The surveys I looked at were in the last few years. There has been quite a bit of talk about the prices being too high online. We enjoy the food here but do think its pricey.
We have always found the food to be fresh and hot. I do love that everything is fresh and never frozen. Of course we love that they cut their own fries too. Glad that you had an amazing experience! Thanks for watching.
We've never been but as soon as I win the lottery I'm heading to our local one! We love DAIRI-O and we could eat there twice for the one visit at 5 Guys. Glad yall enjoyed it!
We love five guys burgers and fries. We ate at the one in Gatlinburg a few weeks ago. I'm hungry now after watching your video. Hope yall are doing well.
I agree the burger quality at Five Guys is great. I would definitely pay more for a Five Guys burger than buy a McDonald’s burger. Of course I never eat a McDonald’s burger. lol
You definitely get what you pay for. It's not an everyday restaurant. We have ate there for years and have never had a bad meal. Plus prices have definitely went up everywhere.
We used to go when we lived in Norfolk, but haven’t been for about six years. When we saw the menu prices, they definitely have gone up about $4 on the burgers. The toppings are great, and my favorite is sautéed onions and mushrooms. Thanks for the revisit…and what you did for “JP”❤️
I think the prices are a little too high! Tho, it's been 3 or 4 years and they left Ardmore and don't know why! I had mine lettuce wrapped and loved their fries! Really enjoyed your video.
It is upsetting when businesses close and there is not a reason given. I do enjoy going to Five Guys. We had a delicious meal here even though it was a little pricey. Thanks for watching Carla!
I personally never go to 5 Guys because of the prices. I can get a good burger, fries and a drink from Applebee's for 10 bucks! Great video as always ♥️
I ate there once and that was years ago. I remember the burgers and fries both being good. I think they were voted number one not for their prices but for the quality and freshness of the food, maybe? Thank you guys for bringing us another review.
I enjoyed 5 guys I thought they had the best freshest burgers and ample fries . They closed the 5 Guys closed down in my city. Now, I am at a loss for a good burger. Whaaa.
Sorry that they closed your Five Guys. Hope you find another good burger near you. I agree that they do have yummy fresh burgers and fries. Thanks for watching.
I am glad to see y'all finally did a video for Five Guys! I will agree they have some of the best burgers out there and the fries are phenomenal with and without Cajun seasoning and you can go wrong with the complimentary peanuts as well! Now I do agree also with the majority that the prices are outrageous as my wife and I went many years ago got two cheeseburgers, split a large fry and got two drinks and it was like $40 for all that and that was before the inflation went crazy four years ago and we agreed that we could have had a steak dinner for those prices! I'll occasionally still go and get me a meal from there but not often due to the prices but had it not been for that, I'd go more so! That's also interesting to hear about why they use the bags and there are piles of fries at the bottom! I always thought it was overfill they allow them to spill but hearing this I won't complain as you can beat getting extra fries again especially with the prices you pay! Thank you my friends for sharing and rocking as always!
Five Guys is delicious! We always enjoy it when we go there but due to price it is not but once or twice a year. I do feel like the quality is better overall. I love that the beef is fresh and that they cut their fries. I know that you enjoy a good burger like us. Hope you are doing well. Have a great weekend!
This Five Guys location is not to far from a Texas Roadhouse. You can definitely eat off of their early bird menu and get a steak, salad and side for under $20. Thanks for watching!
First things first … great video! Love y’all’s honesty! I have had Five Guys, but I never had to pay for it. Where I worked, I could drive a car on the lot to pick up lunch for everyone and mine was paid for 😉 Said that to say this … I agree with David. Three burgers and one order of fries verses a higher end restaurant for the price 🤔 that’s a bit much, in my opinion. Having worked/managed a small mom pop restaurant, I do understand higher prices to keep things going. Still, this is a different level. I usually add Cajun seasoning when fixing fries at home. I never thought to add it to my ketchup 🤦🏼♀️ Cindy, than you for that tip😊 Everything looked good. Thanks for sharing 🤗 PS … thought we saw your OB video posted, but when we got home, it was gone. Will keep my eyes open 😉
Being the pickup person for Five Guys and not having to pay for it is a great deal. 😃 Everything was tasty. Nice juicy cheeseburger and hot hand-cut fries. David accidently hit publish instead of schedule for the OB video. It will be out today at 2:00 PM. Thanks for watching! ❤🍔🍟
Ate at Five Guys for the first and only time on a business trip several years ago. 2 cheeseburger, drinks and fries was right at $ 40. I thought I had misunderstood the cashier, so I asked her if she was kidding me. She wasn't. Anyway, the burger was good. My fries were not. They were greasy and floppy. We also only got a cup of fries each. No bag full like I keep seeing on videos. Everyone seems to love the fries so I expect mine were just a fluke. Five Guys is pricey, but I would give them another try. Just not somewhere I would go very often.
I have heard that part of the marketing with the fries is to give customers more than they can eat. Sounds like you didn't get that! I've always enjoyed the fries at Five Guys because they cut them fresh and they have always been fried to perfection in my opinion. Sounds like you definitely got a bad batch and they missed the traditional extra scoop in the bag. I hope you have a better experience if you try it again. 😃🍟
Great review and I agree on the prices. The one here in Port Orange FL closed a few years ago, just not enough business to keep the doors open. The Red Robin on the other side of the parking lot is our favorite, and they have bottomless fries!
There were lots of people at this location when we did the review. Sorry that the Five Guys in your area closed. Glad you have a Red Robin in your area. The bottomless fries are definitely a draw for Red Robin. They also have different specials during the week. Thanks for watching!
Thankyou for reviewing five guys…there is one i pass by on the road and always wondered how the burgers are there….all the burgers you all had looked delicious and so fresh and made on the grill…where other fast food places now are not using grills but just heating up the burgers…i know there pricey but id pay for those burgers since there made fresh and on the grill…the fries looked good too…im going to have to go there just for those excellent burgers and fries…carleys milk shake looked so good too❤❤❤
Never have I ever been to five guys, My wife's brother in law will drive 50 miles just to get one of their burgers. That makes her sister so mad. But he said nobody makes a better burger ?. I have to agree with David that the prices seem awful high. My favorite fast food fries are Popeyes Cajun fries. My favorite burger is the Whopper at Burger King. Of course we don't have a Culver's or some other popular burger joints in our area. I will admit the food looks tempting , and all those fries 🍟 😮 I will have to admit that there probably out my budget for a fast food night out. Thanks for taking us along, God Bless and have a great week 🙏
That's funny about your wife's sister getting mad about her husband driving that far. People who love Five Guys really love it. I enjoy their burgers, fries and hotdogs but do admit they are a little pricey for fast food. I'm laughing about you saying the Whopper is your favorite fast food burger. I love a whopper! When I was looking at some of the lists of the worst and best burgers I saw the whopper at the bottom of one. I couldn't believe it! I was wondering if it was just me because I grew up eating Burger King and have always loved it.
I love Five Guys burgers. The flavor is amazing. They always give me more enough fries!! The only con I have with Five Guys is the price. Very expensive for a burger joint.😔 Thanks for your review!
The wife and I went to a Five Guys once. $25. We do often eat at KewPee(they grind their hamburger fresh every morning) and they have multiple toppings for their burgers. Their fries are not fresh cut, but we can get a 39 ounce drink for 99 cents. The wife and I can eat there under $15 and their burgers are delicious.
We are not familiar with KewPee. I looked it up and see there are three locations in Ohio. Would love to try it out if I'm ever in the area. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
@@vafunseekers Been in business since 1923(though the Lima locations are younger than that). Dave Thomas(Wendy's) ate at one in Michigan, thus why his burgers are square.
They are expensive but oh so good. For the prices, Culvers has been my #1 for a while now. Five guys have better fries, but I have to watch my carbs these days. Great review as always.
Five Guys is delicious. We don't have a Culvers in our area but have had it when we travel. They do have good burgers. I'm not sure that I've tried their fries. Thanks for watching.
Funny thing! We were just talking about doing a video on Five Guys here in Pigeon Forge yesterday. Their food looks good. Thanks for sharing you guys. SMKK
great video. that said I have a question. I have never had a bad burger at 5 guys but I have a buddy that has been there a couple times and he complains about soggy buns on his burger. I am curious about your thoughts on soggy buns ? Oh yea I think the prices in there are plenty high but look at the price of a Big Mac and fries.
We haven't had issues with the buns. I wonder if it is the toppings that he chooses. I hate when you get a burger or sandwich and the bun doesn't hold up. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for this review on Five Guys restaurant. We have never been to a Five Guys so we don’t know what burger to compare this place to. The burgers look bigger than an IN N OUT burger but I think IN N OUT might be less money. It has been over 2 years since we have been to an IN N OUT. What burger restaurant would you compare Five Guys to. The burgers do look good. Thank you for a great job on the review. You all take care.
Five Guys is definitely pricier than most, but the quality is good. I"m not sure what to compare it to. We have been to In N Out and I prefer the taste of Five Guys but I do believe the price is much better at IN N OUT. But it has been a few years since I've been to one. I do believe there is a Five Guys location in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg if you would like to try them out. Appreciate you watching.
havent been there in years, but years ago, the price was insane. but i did try it two different times and both times it had little bone bits ground up in it. It’s hard to find burgers that are truly bone free. thats why i usually grind my own at home. but I recall the flavor was pretty good.
@ I actually did one probably maybe a year ago but maybe I’ll do a new one. i do beef but we are really liking my ground boneless chicken thighs more, they are good in everything and do tender.
Great 🍔 burgers , 🍟 fries Idaho the best . Another great review , keep it 👆 up . God bless America 🇺🇸 our Troops & First Responders !!! SABBATH SUNDAY amen
@vafunseekers Oh yes, we have snow! 🥶 Since Thanksgiving, we have received 106 inches cumulatively. It surprises me that it isn't deeper, but it evaporates and compacts. In the yard, it's about 14" deep at the moment. Did y'all recover from your deep freeze?
We agree that the prices are a bit high but the quality of the food is impressive. Good point about the price and buying the fries separately. Thanks for watching!
I started going to Five Guys when the first one opened on Columbia Pike in Arlington, VA. They've always been pricey. But, the quality reflects that. When there's an external wage push, the consumer almost always gets it in the end. Besides high prices, there's also a push for "productivity". In other words, "do more with less". In this case, people. This hits the customer with degraded service. A big Five Guys franchise owner in the NOVA area is former Washington Redskins football player, Mark Moseley. In fact, he was one of the first -if not the first, franchisee after his "Mark Moseley's Hamburgers" (in a remodeled "Friendly's" in Herndon, VA) failed. (This was after his "Mark Moseley's Travel" in Reston failed.) I've yet to try any of the franchise ones. However, now that I am no longer a "Virginian", if I get the "urge", I probably will. BTW, those number stickers on the burgers indicates its placement in the order. (Imagine being part of a large order and getting the burger that comes up next after #665!) I would rate Five Guys up there with In-N-Out, Freddy's, and Fatburger. Also, PSE note that not all Five Guys locations offer milkshakes. If you want to change-up the seasoning on your fries, try them "Canadian style" with white vinegar instead of malt. Another variation is to use "Fry Sauce". This is something you often see in the local/regional fast feeders out west. (I first encountered it at an Arctic Circle in Cedar City, Utah.) In fact, one of the supermarket chains out here sells a house brand version of it. This review already has me looking forward to my supper tonight: Teriyaki ribeye, sauteed mushrooms, and corn on the cob. I especially liked the "Principles/Micro" lesson contained within this review. While we may not like things the way they are, it helps to understand the "why" behind it. Yet another excellent review! God Bless!
John, I did not know Mark Moseley was an owner. I knew the original store that opened was in Fairfax. I also didn't know that the stickers represented the order that you placed your order. You always learn something! Sounds like you have a good supper planned for tonight! We do enjoy Five Guys but do feel like they are a little pricey. We have never tried a Freddy's or Fatburger. We also noticed that there were lots of people working at Five Guys and it was rather busy. Probably as busy as we've seen them. Appreciate you!
I like Five Guys and employees have to put food on the table, but prices are too steep for me. It used to be my goto hamburger joint, but now I cook my burgers at home.
Yes, the price is very expensive, however it's delicious. Of course, I have to have mayonnaise and onions on my double cheeseburger. The fries might have been a bit salty, but that's good with me. I'm a sodium addict. Lol.
We enjoy Five Guys, but we agree that their prices are too high. The burgers are good, but we haven't been in years. They keep adding stores in our area, so someone obviously loves them enough to keep them in business.
Five Guys has expanded and have plans for lots of additional stores. They definitely have a delicious product and they have people willing to pay the price to keep them in business. I've always enjoyed Five Guys but do find them to be pricey. Hope you are having a great weekend!
We have tried DC's burger and it is delicious. We have not tried Rt. 26 Market under the new ownership. Will have to stop by one day and try it out. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You'll be very happy to know that when ever wawa gets closer to you guys there convince stores have the free style coke machines in them and I saw there now in winchester Virginia now that's there 1st interstate 81 store they have in Virginia now
That is good to know! David will definitely enjoy being able to get his coke with vanilla and other combinations. I did hear that McDonald's will be taking out their self serve drink machines and the employees will refill it for you.
the burgers look good- so do the fries ! i’ve never heard of a place that does that with the extra fries. I’m in NE Ohio- we don’t have a 5 guys all that close to me.
If you have a chance to try one you will love it! The burgers and fries are delicious. What are some of your favorite places that may be only in your area? We are hoping to go to Ohio this summer.
@ park street pizza is in sugarcreek as well as canton ohio. (so so so good ! I went to high school with the owner ). Rebecca’s bistro is in walnut creek. I can email you sometime ! I don’t want to give my exact city out on youtube ;)
Do you guys know where hardly Virginia is if you do we have some friends who use to live in Pennsylvania and they moved to hardly Virginia about 7 or 8 years ago now
I’ve been to that Five Guys, it was good. It was two years ago. I think 5guys is to the point that if their food prices go up any more it will be not worth the money.
We always enjoy the food at Five Guys. I believe you are right about if it goes up anymore it will not be worth it. I am unaware of them ever doing a special. But that would be appreciated by the customers.
We have at least 3 5 guys burgers with in a half an hour from where I live at they have one in Lancaster pa another in ephrata pa which is another town in Lancaster County and one in Downingtown pa in Chester County going tword Philadelphia and the five guys in ephrata pa is about 10 minutes or so away from the green dragon farmers market
I love Five Guys almost as much as I love In-N-Out Burger, but their prices are way too expensive for me. I can get the same thing for cheaper at Chili's. How do they stay in business with those prices?
The fries may have been a little lighter than normal. I might have to go back and ask for more. lol However it was more than enough fries for us. Thanks for watching!
Five Guys is good but I WILL NOT pay that price. Not worth it. I do eat there but only once every 5 years. That's it. They will just have to sell to the rich.
Prices are outrageous...for say a lb. Of hamburger meat between the 3 burgers a small fry which potatoes are the cheapest vegetable to buy...and 3 drinks $ 52.00 ...there is other options like Culver's and chilli's that are just as good or better and is a fraction of the cost of 5 brother's and you get more food...and a note..5 brother's was rated the unhealthiest burger for you then any other fast food restaurant..so in my opinion chilli's is the way better option for quality and value...you can get a delicious big smash burger, unlimited fries, fresh nachos and salsa, and a drink for $9.99
The Chili's $10.99 3 for Me deal is definitely hard to beat. We reviewed that deal to show a value option and really enjoyed the food at Chili's. David tried the burger and really enjoyed it. He also tried the Applebee's $9.99 burger and thought that was good too. So there are definitely cheaper options out there. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Haven’t been to Five Guys in quite awhile. Always enjoyed the food but have to say it’s way too expensive. For what y’all paid for three burgers and fries, some good steaks could have been enjoyed.
Fast food prices have gotten out of control. I think that's why you are now seeing some deals from fast food and casual dining restaurants-Trying to get some business back.
ate there today me and the wife and 9 year old each got a burger and 3 drinks and we split a large fry and it was $47 plus ate peanuts while waiting on food paid $25 from a gift card the rest cash
Way too expensive. The burger specials at Chili's and Applebee's at $10 for a burger, fries and a soda is a much better deal and the burgers are just as good.
Never eaten at one. Trump will help bring down prices because inflation started when our energy was crushed from the Pipeline being closed by the former installed freak show that caused tremendous damage to our Country. It won't happen overnight. Employees needed raises because of inflation so they had to pass the cost to their prices. It's unsustainable! So many people can't e even afford groceries today. Those burgers and fries looked delicious!!! Thank ya'll for your channel and look forward to the next one. ❤
This comment made us smile. 😃You are right about energy prices controlling so many other things other than just transportation in our cars! The burgers and fries were delicious as always. Thanks for watching and your comment.
Worth it? No burger and fries is worth the ridiculous amount of money they charge. And the fact they don't even offer combo meals and still charge that much is unacceptable. And the ONLY! reason they are still getting away with being the most expensive fast food burger in the business is because the stupid people that go there when you can get a way better and way less expensive burger elsewhere!
The prices are definitely higher than other fast food restaurants. People go there because they like it. The company continues to grow. It surprises me how much they grow due to the high prices.
David, I see alot of closed Five Guys around the country. The locations around the Tampa Bay area are not as busy as they used to be. I bet revenue is way down. 10 lb's of potatoes are $2.99 @Kroger and Five Guys is charging $5.99 for 1 order...insane.
I'm from Winnipeg, Canada, not the US. We have Five Guys here. My thoughts on Five Guys - it's an overpriced fast food hamburger joint. I'd just stick with McDonald's. I don't much care for their burgers or fries. Dairy Queen's Flamethrower double cheeseburger tastes better for half or less than half the price. The fries are OK, not that great, they got a strange after taste - I guess that's from the peanut oil.
I haven't tried the Flamethrower double cheeseburger from Dairy Queen but will give it a try. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about Five Guys. We are used to peanut oil so we probably pay no attention to it. Thanks for watching!
I like 5 Guys but they are way to overpriced for the average person it is only a once in a while thing. There are other places that are more reasonable and far better.
Five Guys is a special treat. I don’t go often but it’s delicious. Great video. Thanks y’all 🍔
It definitely is a special treat, we agree! Thanks for watching!
Quality effects costs. The cleanliness of the establishment. Always have to remember that you get what you pay for. I love their food but have to remember that it is not a regular stop for me.

We haven't been to Five Guys in years. I was shocked at the prices. I always wonder when they are voted number one who voted and how long ago. Y'all stay warm. God Bless and safe travels.
The surveys I looked at were in the last few years. There has been quite a bit of talk about the prices being too high online. We enjoy the food here but do think its pricey.
5 guys is great! Even with price increases it was still reasonable for our party of 6. It's always fresh, hot, and filling!
We have always found the food to be fresh and hot. I do love that everything is fresh and never frozen. Of course we love that they cut their own fries too. Glad that you had an amazing experience! Thanks for watching.
Reasonable, are you serious? the price is insane!
Wow, that regular cheeseburger is so expensive. I'm so lucky we have In-N-Out here in SoCal!!!!!
I meant the little cheeseburger.
I know, I love In-N-Out too!
We've never been but as soon as I win the lottery I'm heading to our local one! We love DAIRI-O and we could eat there twice for the one visit at 5 Guys. Glad yall enjoyed it!
LOL They do have a good burger and fries. We have never been to DAIRI-O but would like to try it sometimes. Hope you are having a good weekend.
We love five guys burgers and fries. We ate at the one in Gatlinburg a few weeks ago. I'm hungry now after watching your video. Hope yall are doing well.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, we had a great time too! Definitely a good burger and fries. We are doing great. Hope y'all are too!
Macdonalds prices are close...id rather have 5 guys...beef is off the chart im pay 7 or 8 dollars a pound. Thank you for the review!
I agree the burger quality at Five Guys is great. I would definitely pay more for a Five Guys burger than buy a McDonald’s burger. Of course I never eat a McDonald’s burger. lol
The food is always good. I do think it's expensive for a burger and fries, though. Thanks for another great review.❤
You are welcome. We always enjoy Five Guys. Hope you have a great weekend!
You definitely get what you pay for. It's not an everyday restaurant. We have ate there for years and have never had a bad meal. Plus prices have definitely went up everywhere.
It's always a good meal when we go. You are right about prices increasing everywhere. Thanks for watching.
We used to go when we lived in Norfolk, but haven’t been for about six years. When we saw the menu prices, they definitely have gone up about $4 on the burgers. The toppings are great, and my favorite is sautéed onions and mushrooms. Thanks for the revisit…and what you did for “JP”❤️
We love Five Guys but the prices have gone up a lot! They do offer lots of different toppings. Thanks for watching!
I think the prices are a little too high! Tho, it's been 3 or 4 years and they left Ardmore and don't know why! I had mine lettuce wrapped and loved their fries! Really enjoyed your video.
It is upsetting when businesses close and there is not a reason given. I do enjoy going to Five Guys. We had a delicious meal here even though it was a little pricey. Thanks for watching Carla!
@vafunseekers you're welcome!
I personally never go to 5 Guys because of the prices. I can get a good burger, fries and a drink from Applebee's for 10 bucks! Great video as always ♥️
Now the fries are bottomless at Applebee's for the burger and chicken special. We enjoy that special. Thanks for watching.
@vafunseekers we are doing that one tomorrow 👍
@ Look forward to seeing it!
We love Five Guys but don’t eat there often because we find it to be pricey for “fast food” burgers. Thanks for the great review.
It definitely is a special treat and we agree it's pricey!
I ate there once and that was years ago. I remember the burgers and fries both being good. I think they were voted number one not for their prices but for the quality and freshness of the food, maybe? Thank you guys for bringing us another review.
Yes, they are known for their freshness and quality of ingredients. We enjoy the food at Five Guys. ❤🍔🍟Hope you are having a great weekend.
I enjoyed 5 guys I thought they had the best freshest burgers and ample fries . They closed the 5 Guys closed down in my city. Now, I am at a loss for a good burger. Whaaa.

You could get a steak some place for$20. The food is good but I just can’t justify paying that much.
This Five Guys location is not to far from a Texas Roadhouse. You can definitely eat off of their early bird menu and get a steak, salad and side for under $20. Thanks for watching!
First things first … great video! Love y’all’s honesty!

Hi Jessica! The fries are good for sure! 😋Hope you are doing well!
@vafunseekers yes I am hope y'all are too just trying survive winter ❄️❄️❄️❄️ 🥶🥶🥶🥶 lol
5 guys is delicious but constantly seems to be considered the worst price in all of the food industry. Terrible pricing.
We agree that it is delicious and pricey. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Thankyou for reviewing five guys…there is one i pass by on the road and always wondered how the burgers are there….all the burgers you all had looked delicious and so fresh and made on the grill…where other fast food places now are not using grills but just heating up the burgers…i know there pricey but id pay for those burgers since there made fresh and on the grill…the fries looked good too…im going to have to go there just for those excellent burgers and fries…carleys milk shake looked so good too❤❤❤
Glad you liked the review and are going to give it a try! Let us know what you think. We always have a good meal at Five Guys.
My favorite place to go for a burger and the fries are great . Carly my friend for sixty years loves the shakes . Thanks for this video . ❤
It’s great to hear you enjoy Five Guys! The shakes are delicious. Glad you liked the video!
Never have I ever been to five guys, My wife's brother in law will drive 50 miles just to get one of their burgers. That makes her sister so mad. But he said nobody makes a better burger ?. I have to agree with David that the prices seem awful high. My favorite fast food fries are Popeyes Cajun fries. My favorite burger is the Whopper at Burger King. Of course we don't have a Culver's or some other popular burger joints in our area. I will admit the food looks tempting , and all those fries 🍟 😮 I will have to admit that there probably out my budget for a fast food night out. Thanks for taking us along, God Bless and have a great week 🙏
That's funny about your wife's sister getting mad about her husband driving that far. People who love Five Guys really love it. I enjoy their burgers, fries and hotdogs but do admit they are a little pricey for fast food.
I'm laughing about you saying the Whopper is your favorite fast food burger. I love a whopper! When I was looking at some of the lists of the worst and best burgers I saw the whopper at the bottom of one. I couldn't believe it! I was wondering if it was just me because I grew up eating Burger King and have always loved it.
I love Five Guys burgers. The flavor is amazing. They always give me more enough fries!! The only con I have with Five Guys is the price. Very expensive for a burger joint.😔 Thanks for your review!
We agree completely! I know you like a good burger too. Hope y'all are doing well!
The wife and I went to a Five Guys once. $25. We do often eat at KewPee(they grind their hamburger fresh every morning) and they have multiple toppings for their burgers. Their fries are not fresh cut, but we can get a 39 ounce drink for 99 cents. The wife and I can eat there under $15 and their burgers are delicious.
We are not familiar with KewPee. I looked it up and see there are three locations in Ohio. Would love to try it out if I'm ever in the area. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
@@vafunseekers
Been in business since 1923(though the Lima locations are younger than that). Dave Thomas(Wendy's) ate at one in Michigan, thus why his burgers are square.
@ Are the Lima locations the only locations?
@@vafunseekers
There's still one in Michigan(the one Dave Thomas ate at as a kid) and I was told there is one still in Iowa.
They are expensive but oh so good. For the prices, Culvers has been my #1 for a while now. Five guys have better fries, but I have to watch my carbs these days. Great review as always.
Five Guys is delicious. We don't have a Culvers in our area but have had it when we travel. They do have good burgers. I'm not sure that I've tried their fries. Thanks for watching.
Funny thing! We were just talking about doing a video on Five Guys here in Pigeon Forge yesterday.
Their food looks good.
Thanks for sharing you guys. SMKK
Great minds think alike!!!! They do have a delicious burger and fries.
Love Five Guys! Think will get a burger tomorrow.
Definitely! I'm thinking I need one now too. lol
great video. that said I have a question. I have never had a bad burger at 5 guys but I have a buddy that has been there a couple times and he complains about soggy buns on his burger. I am curious about your thoughts on soggy buns ?
Oh yea I think the prices in there are plenty high but look at the price of a Big Mac and fries.
We haven't had issues with the buns. I wonder if it is the toppings that he chooses. I hate when you get a burger or sandwich and the bun doesn't hold up. Thanks for watching and commenting.
We like 5 guys but it’s to expensive. I like those restaurants you go to for good cheap burgers
I love it when I find a good old fashioned drive-in that has the awesome burgers. Yum! ❤🍔
food is great and fries are the best but the prices are the reason why i don't go regularly. maybe a couple times a year i'll go.
It definitely is a special treat for us! Thanks for watching!
The wife and I went once. I can Texas Roadhouse for the prices they want...
@ Very true!
That seasoning for the fries are really good
Yes, they are!
Thank you for this review on Five Guys restaurant.
We have never been to a Five Guys so we don’t know what burger to compare this place to. The burgers look bigger than an IN N OUT burger but I think IN N OUT might be less money. It has been over 2 years since we have been to an IN N OUT.
What burger restaurant would you compare Five Guys to.
The burgers do look good.
Thank you for a great job on the review.
You all take care.
Five Guys is definitely pricier than most, but the quality is good. I"m not sure what to compare it to. We have been to In N Out and I prefer the taste of Five Guys but I do believe the price is much better at IN N OUT. But it has been a few years since I've been to one.
I do believe there is a Five Guys location in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg if you would like to try them out.
Appreciate you watching.
havent been there in years, but years ago, the price was insane. but i did try it two different times and both times it had little bone bits ground up in it. It’s hard to find burgers that are truly bone free. thats why i usually grind my own at home. but I recall the flavor was pretty good.
That's awesome that you grind your own hamburger. I bet your burgers are awesome! Maybe a review on your burgers. ❤🍔
@ I actually did one probably maybe a year ago but maybe I’ll do a new one. i do beef but we are really liking my ground boneless chicken thighs more, they are good in everything and do tender.
@@gailsfoodandstuff That sounds good!
Haven’t been there in years lol ha good to me still nice review y’all
Glad you liked the review, hope you enjoy your next visit!
Great 🍔 burgers , 🍟 fries Idaho the best . Another great review , keep it 👆 up . God bless America 🇺🇸 our Troops & First Responders !!! SABBATH SUNDAY amen
Thank you for watching and God bless you! Five Guys has some juicy burgers and awesome fries. ❤🍔🍟
We love Five Guys! Yes, it's a little pricey, but in my opinion, it's worth it! 😊
I would agree!
Hi VA family, the burgers looked good, we have one here in Sydney, so I will go try it out soon and let you know what I thought. Take care x
I am glad we could get you excited to try it out! Let me know what you think.
I haven't been to Five Guys in 10 years, I think. The burgers all look good.
But those prices just aren't for me.
Thanks for bringing us along! 💜
It definitely is a special treat because of the prices. Thanks for watching. Do you have any snow?
@vafunseekers
Oh yes, we have snow! 🥶 Since Thanksgiving, we have received 106 inches cumulatively. It surprises me that it isn't deeper, but it evaporates and compacts. In the yard, it's about 14" deep at the moment.
Did y'all recover from your deep freeze?
You should get the grilled cheese and add a patty and your toppings what you like 😉😁
That sounds good! Yum!
I love 5 guys however they are expensive. Thanks for the review.
I hear you on the expensive part, but it's delicious! Thanks for watching.
Seems a bit pricey for some burgers especially since you have to buy fries separately. However their fries are delicious!
We agree that the prices are a bit high but the quality of the food is impressive. Good point about the price and buying the fries separately. Thanks for watching!
Need to take a trip to Five Guys !
I see a burger in your future.
I started going to Five Guys when the first one opened on Columbia Pike in Arlington, VA. They've always been pricey. But, the quality reflects that. When there's an external wage push, the consumer almost always gets it in the end. Besides high prices, there's also a push for "productivity". In other words, "do more with less". In this case, people. This hits the customer with degraded service. A big Five Guys franchise owner in the NOVA area is former Washington Redskins football player, Mark Moseley. In fact, he was one of the first -if not the first, franchisee after his "Mark Moseley's Hamburgers" (in a remodeled "Friendly's" in Herndon, VA) failed. (This was after his "Mark Moseley's Travel" in Reston failed.) I've yet to try any of the franchise ones. However, now that I am no longer a "Virginian", if I get the "urge", I probably will. BTW, those number stickers on the burgers indicates its placement in the order. (Imagine being part of a large order and getting the burger that comes up next after #665!) I would rate Five Guys up there with In-N-Out, Freddy's, and Fatburger. Also, PSE note that not all Five Guys locations offer milkshakes. If you want to change-up the seasoning on your fries, try them "Canadian style" with white vinegar instead of malt. Another variation is to use "Fry Sauce". This is something you often see in the local/regional fast feeders out west. (I first encountered it at an Arctic Circle in Cedar City, Utah.) In fact, one of the supermarket chains out here sells a house brand version of it. This review already has me looking forward to my supper tonight: Teriyaki ribeye, sauteed mushrooms, and corn on the cob. I especially liked the "Principles/Micro" lesson contained within this review. While we may not like things the way they are, it helps to understand the "why" behind it. Yet another excellent review! God Bless!
John, I did not know Mark Moseley was an owner. I knew the original store that opened was in Fairfax. I also didn't know that the stickers represented the order that you placed your order. You always learn something!
Sounds like you have a good supper planned for tonight! We do enjoy Five Guys but do feel like they are a little pricey. We have never tried a Freddy's or Fatburger.
We also noticed that there were lots of people working at Five Guys and it was rather busy. Probably as busy as we've seen them. Appreciate you!
I like Five Guys and employees have to put food on the table, but prices are too steep for me. It used to be my goto hamburger joint, but now I cook my burgers at home.
I enjoy Five Guys but I always like a hamburger prepared at home too. Especially, when it is cooked on the grill. Thanks for watching.
Yes, the price is very expensive, however it's delicious. Of course, I have to have mayonnaise and onions on my double cheeseburger. The fries might have been a bit salty, but that's good with me. I'm a sodium addict. Lol.
They do have a good burger. Their fries are delicious and if you like salt you would have really enjoyed this order. Thanks for watching!
We enjoy Five Guys, but we agree that their prices are too high. The burgers are good, but we haven't been in years. They keep adding stores in our area, so someone obviously loves them enough to keep them in business.
Five Guys has expanded and have plans for lots of additional stores. They definitely have a delicious product and they have people willing to pay the price to keep them in business. I've always enjoyed Five Guys but do find them to be pricey. Hope you are having a great weekend!
You don't have too travel far in Appomattox. I'm a connoisseur of gas station food. DC's Mini Mart and the Rt 26 Market both have good burgers.
We have tried DC's burger and it is delicious. We have not tried Rt. 26 Market under the new ownership. Will have to stop by one day and try it out. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You'll be very happy to know that when ever wawa gets closer to you guys there convince stores have the free style coke machines in them and I saw there now in winchester Virginia now that's there 1st interstate 81 store they have in Virginia now
That is good to know! David will definitely enjoy being able to get his coke with vanilla and other combinations. I did hear that McDonald's will be taking out their self serve drink machines and the employees will refill it for you.
the burgers look good- so do the fries ! i’ve never heard of a place that does that with the extra fries. I’m in NE Ohio- we don’t have a 5 guys all that close to me.
does seem a little pricey :/ but every thing is so expensive these days
and that’s cool they say where the potatoes come from!
If you have a chance to try one you will love it! The burgers and fries are delicious. What are some of your favorite places that may be only in your area? We are hoping to go to Ohio this summer.
So true. They have a hotdog that I like with cheese and bacon. It's $10! Pricey but good!
@ park street pizza is in sugarcreek as well as canton ohio. (so so so good ! I went to high school with the owner ). Rebecca’s bistro is in walnut creek. I can email you sometime ! I don’t want to give my exact city out on youtube ;)
Do you guys know where hardly Virginia is if you do we have some friends who use to live in Pennsylvania and they moved to hardly Virginia about 7 or 8 years ago now
Yes we have heard of Hardy, Virginia. It's about an hour and 15 minutes from us.
I’ve been to that Five Guys, it was good. It was two years ago. I think 5guys is to the point that if their food prices go up any more it will be not worth the money.
We always enjoy the food at Five Guys. I believe you are right about if it goes up anymore it will not be worth it. I am unaware of them ever doing a special. But that would be appreciated by the customers.
We have at least 3 5 guys burgers with in a half an hour from where I live at they have one in Lancaster pa another in ephrata pa which is another town in Lancaster County and one in Downingtown pa in Chester County going tword Philadelphia and the five guys in ephrata pa is about 10 minutes or so away from the green dragon farmers market
They do have a lot of locations. They must be doing pretty good with all of their locations. They definitely have a delicious product.
You failed to show the ATM on the Back Wall so you can Get More Money to Pay The Bill! Over Rated! Over Priced! 😂
That's because they accept cards! LOL Thanks for watching.
I love Five Guys almost as much as I love In-N-Out Burger, but their prices are way too expensive for me. I can get the same thing for cheaper at Chili's. How do they stay in business with those prices?
Plus at Chili's you get a starter too for $10.99. They have some good options for the 3 for me special. Thanks for watching!
Ya'll got jipped on those fries! I always get way more for a regular size fry.
The fries may have been a little lighter than normal. I might have to go back and ask for more. lol However it was more than enough fries for us. Thanks for watching!
I wish five guys had cheese sauce for the fries. The price is what the price is you pay for quality
That would be a great addition!
Love 5guys but prices are too high, the food is good but just can’t justify 40.00 for my husband and myself for a burger meal.
It's definitely a pricey place to eat. But I do enjoy our meal when we go. We usually go about once a year. Thanks for watching.
David you are soooo right! Good Food but, price is way too high!!!
I know! The price is the only reason I don't go more often.
it's absolutely delicious, but the price is ridiculous! I still go from time to time though...
We enjoy going there too. They definitely have a good burger and fries.
Food is expensive I agree
We think so too!
Too expensive & way overrated. You can make the same thing at home cheaper. Guess those five guys get a premium wage.
You can definitely make burgers and fries at home. But we do enjoy going out and doing reviews.
So good but a bit steep for me atm 😂😂
Delicious food but definitely a little pricey. Thanks for watching!
Prices are definitely high molly and I don’t go there to much
It's one of the more expensive burger joints for sure. But we do think they have great food.
Way too expensive for what you get, I will not pay their prices.
It's definitely more expensive than other fast food burgers and fries. Thanks for watching.
Five Guys is good but I WILL NOT pay that price. Not worth it. I do eat there but only once every 5 years. That's it. They will just have to sell to the rich.
The target audience is incomes over $100K, couples and 20 and 30 year old's from what I have read online.
i could make that at home and cheaper and better
No doubt that you can make them cheaper at home. We enjoy making burgers on the grill at home.
Prices are outrageous...for say a lb. Of hamburger meat between the 3 burgers a small fry which potatoes are the cheapest vegetable to buy...and 3 drinks $ 52.00 ...there is other options like Culver's and chilli's that are just as good or better and is a fraction of the cost of 5 brother's and you get more food...and a note..5 brother's was rated the unhealthiest burger for you then any other fast food restaurant..so in my opinion chilli's is the way better option for quality and value...you can get a delicious big smash burger, unlimited fries, fresh nachos and salsa, and a drink for $9.99
The Chili's $10.99 3 for Me deal is definitely hard to beat. We reviewed that deal to show a value option and really enjoyed the food at Chili's. David tried the burger and really enjoyed it. He also tried the Applebee's $9.99 burger and thought that was good too. So there are definitely cheaper options out there. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Haven’t been to Five Guys in quite awhile. Always enjoyed the food but have to say it’s way too expensive. For what y’all paid for three burgers and fries, some good steaks could have been enjoyed.
It definitely isn't cheap. We do enjoy the food at Five Guys. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I usually get a hot dog and fries there
Yum! 😋
Tasty 😀
Yes it is! 😋🍔🍟
Prices are way tooo high !!!!!! We had 1 at the local mall and would be $30 for the 2 of us. That’s tooo much for burgers and fries
And they are gone now
Fast food prices have gotten out of control. I think that's why you are now seeing some deals from fast food and casual dining restaurants-Trying to get some business back.
ate there today me and the wife and 9 year old each got a burger and 3 drinks and we split a large fry and it was $47 plus ate peanuts while waiting on food paid $25 from a gift card the rest cash
The gift cards really help out. We always split a fry because they give you so many fries. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. Thanks for watching.
@@vafunseekers I love your reviews if ever in Troy, Ohio you should try the OLDSCRATCH PIZZA AND BEER. Its Downtown Troy.
Way too expensive. The burger specials at Chili's and Applebee's at $10 for a burger, fries and a soda is a much better deal and the burgers are just as good.
I hear ya! The casual dining restaurants are definitely trying to get business from the higher priced fast food establishments. Thanks for watching.
😋👍
❤🍔🍟
No way they are way to high. Always was ..but the fries are good value.. 😊
The fries are yummy! We enjoy Five Guys but do think they are pricey. Thanks for watching.
Way too expensive
It's definitely higher than other fast food burgers.
Prices are higher probably because of the "fresh food" concept
Good point! It's definitely more expensive to serve fresh food than frozen. Thanks for watching.
There fries are good and the milkshakes
Yes they are Ricky!
Skip the burgers. Eat the fries as a meal by themselves. They are the best fries
They are a little high but decent fast food.
Yes it is! We always enjoy a burger and fries from Five Guys.
Never eaten at one. Trump will help bring down prices because inflation started when our energy was crushed from the Pipeline being closed by the former installed freak show that caused tremendous damage to our Country. It won't happen overnight. Employees needed raises because of inflation so they had to pass the cost to their prices. It's unsustainable! So many people can't e even afford groceries today. Those burgers and fries looked delicious!!! Thank ya'll for your channel and look forward to the next one. ❤
fake news Fancy. Worldwide inflation started when the Cult Leader mis-managed the Covid crisis.
This comment made us smile. 😃You are right about energy prices controlling so many other things other than just transportation in our cars!
The burgers and fries were delicious as always. Thanks for watching and your comment.
Worth it? No burger and fries is worth the ridiculous amount of money they charge. And the fact they don't even offer combo meals and still charge that much is unacceptable. And the ONLY! reason they are still getting away with being the most expensive fast food burger in the business is because the stupid people that go there when you can get a way better and way less expensive burger elsewhere!
The prices are definitely higher than other fast food restaurants. People go there because they like it. The company continues to grow. It surprises me how much they grow due to the high prices.
David, I see alot of closed Five Guys around the country. The locations around the Tampa Bay area are not as busy as they used to be. I bet revenue is way down. 10 lb's of potatoes are $2.99 @Kroger and Five Guys is charging $5.99 for 1 order...insane.
Way too much money
It definitely is higher than other fast food restaurants.
Who in the world told you that???!!🤣🤣
Told me what?
i think it is too expensive since you asked
Thanks for your input. Thanks for watching.
Good burgers but agree, WAY over priced!
I have always loved them, but they are definitely a splurge. Thanks for watching.
They are a little pricey!
They are pricey but very good.
I'm from Winnipeg, Canada, not the US. We have Five Guys here. My thoughts on Five Guys - it's an overpriced fast food hamburger joint. I'd just stick with McDonald's. I don't much care for their burgers or fries. Dairy Queen's Flamethrower double cheeseburger tastes better for half or less than half the price. The fries are OK, not that great, they got a strange after taste - I guess that's from the peanut oil.
I haven't tried the Flamethrower double cheeseburger from Dairy Queen but will give it a try. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about Five Guys. We are used to peanut oil so we probably pay no attention to it. Thanks for watching!
That seems expensive for sure.
Definitely higher than most fast food burgers but the quality is better. Thanks for watching.
@ that’s good to hear. I’ve never been to one.
Good food but to expensive for what it is
We love it, but it's definitely a splurge.
I like 5 Guys but they are way to overpriced for the average person it is only a once in a while thing. There are other places that are more reasonable and far better.
It's definitely a once in a while thing for us. We enjoy eating here when we do. Thanks for watching and commenting.
For me, it's 6/10 food and too expensive
Thanks for commenting. Appreciate you watching and your feedback.
The food looked good. Ive never had five guys. Have you guys ever visited the great 611 here in roanoke. ? They are really good.
Carly... Get off your phone... Be present in your parents' videos. They're much more interesting when you are interacting with your family.
Carly definitely makes the videos!
