    The last time I went to 5 Guys, I got a double bacon burger, small fries, and a small drink, and it came to $24 and change. I will never go back, despite the fact they have the best fries. Their burgers are only slightly better than average.

    I can go to Chilis or Outback, and get a real burger and fries, and even with a drink and tip, it’s about $16. Still too expensive for daily lunch, but it’s a lot better.

    I’ve been hearing that 5 Guys is struggling, and I’ve seen them closing around me. They seem to be starting a death spiral.

      I’m at 18.26 for a double bacon cheese, small Cajun and regular drink.

      That’s a lot of food as well. Like a meal and a later snack to finish it off.

      Coupons are great, last time I went I got 2x little cheese and fries for like 10 bucks.

      In Ca they have to pay the people flipping the burger $20 plus an hour so with that prices go up. Also price of beer is outrageous
