>Five Guys was founded in 1986 by Janie and Jerry Murrell; Jerry and the couple's sons, Jim, Matt, Chad, and Ben, were the original "Five Guys."

Oh really? I thought it was because when they first opened it, every store had five people behind the counter, and because they used glass barriers instead of full on walls, you could always see what they were doing.

>>14607452
AND THERE IT IS. LOLOLOLLOL FIVE GUYS IS TOO EXPENSIVE XDDDD!!!! GET A FUCKING JOB THEN LOSER. I'M SO SICK OF YOU FUCKING POORFAGS SAYING THIS EVERY TIME A FIVE GUYS THREAD SHOWS UP HERE

their hotdogs are better than their burgers. also if you're in Canada their poutine is ( ◠◠ ) ( ◠◠ ) ( ◠◠ )

>fast food chainpoutine
Absolutely revolting. The only acceptable fast food chain poutine is McDonalds' spicy buffalo chicken poutine.

>>14607439
the amount of calories in an average meal

Quebec have some legit fast food chainpoutines anon. Belle Province, Lafleur, Ashton and Valentines are pretty close to authentic to me.

>>14607520
Post paycheck. We both know you took out a mortgage to pay for that burger.

>>14607439
five guys jerk off in the special sauce every morning

>>14607598
I meant excluding the non-Québécois chains. The Belle Province near my old college is the sole reason I put on so many pounds way back when.

>>14607520
its not "too expensive"
its "too expensive for what it is" imo

like, i could buy fresh meat and some good cheese and make them myself for the same price

>>14607649
>*excluding the Québécois chains. Don't use double negatives kids.

Did 5 men start the company?

The father has 5 sons, i believe

what your asshole feels like after shitting it out

Obama ate at five guys because he liked it.

Donnie Dumbfuck eats at macdonalds because he's paranoid that the "deep state" will poison food prepared for him at the white house.
Trump spent so long hanging out with Russians that he's convinced he's going to get poisoned. Rather than have his own trusted chef he cruises around random MacDonalds drive-thru's day and night to eat god only knows what.

Obama took russian president Dimitri Mevdevev out for a five guys but Dimitri wouldn't eat it. He only eats food prepared by his private chef who is his mother. He mostly trusts her.
Clever boy Dimitri . He lasted a long time

>>14607752
nah daddy trump is a smart rich man. he doesnt pay for overpriced fast food

>>14607777
The digits don't fucking lie...

>>14607439
That's how they make their special sauce

>>14607445
4 u

>>14607725
nah. it was the guy, the wife and their 3 sons.....they had another son after they registered the name

They opened one in a city near me I went there and the entire staff was female the girl who gave me my order stared while smiling before giving me my order in this flirty way but i pussied out i dont know how to handle these things

Like a deep stare for about 8 seconds into my eyes with a light gentle smile that's more than is normal

>>14607520
It's not about whether one can afford it or not, it's about whether what you get is worth the price they ask for or not, and it's not.

>>14607439
she blew them

>>14607658
I can go to a bar and get better food and a beverage for cheaper

>>14607439
Overpriced for a mediocre burger. Fries were soggy.

>>14607439
It’s more worth the money than most fast food places with how much extra food you can get on top of your order, assuming no deals or coupons are used. I’d rather go to Five Guys over Scam Shack or some premium McD’s combo.

>>14607520
Fair, fair

>why yes i'll have some pickles on that
>+25 cents

>uh but i thought toppings here are free
>oh my bad, sorry
>-25 cents

The gulf between their regular fries and their cajun fries is ridiculous. The regular fries are some of the blandest soggiest fries I've ever eaten, but as soon as they add the cajun seasoning it turns into the food of gods. One time they messed up my order and gave me regular fries and I was left with an inedible pile of shit, I was pissed.

Nope, the father had four sons and they went into business together. And after they named it, he ended up having yet another son. The father talked about it in an interview in which he shits on pizza shops for running a delivery service, obama for trying to make his deliver to the white house and outright admits his entire business strategy was to follow exactly what Dave Thomas wrote in his book.

Why anyone eats this at such an insane premium is beyond me. It tastes exactly like your average cookout burger, which you can make yourself at an infinitesimal fraction of the cost. I suppose people are so used to that flavor that getting it at a restaurant seems gourmet, so they shell out. It's more than a little ridiculous to me though. If you want something that you can get at home, just make it at home. The only reason 5G is in business is that people are JUST that well-off still that they can literally burn money on grocery-store-tier burgers, and JUST that lazy. Which pretty much defines the american experience.

do you think people will still be talking about five guys in five years?
i don't think so. they will shut down by then

>>14607439
A meal of burg, fries and drink contains enough calories for 5 men

5 guys behind, make crappy dinner.
Paycheck? we dont use that

5 guys (nigger employees) 1 burger bun (OP's order)
