Five guys and Panera Bread

YAY! I'm doing my one for the month on Saturday. Of course, after I selected it, one came up that was bonused. I get bacon with the bonus.

For the price points here, you can say under the reimbursement with a little cheeseburger and little fries and a regular drink. The toppings are free except for the bacon.

Their burgers are good. The fries are okay. You get a lot.

I have my 1st five guys and Panera shops this weekend. I am excited. I have never been to a Five guys but have been to Panera Bread once. I found that when I was looking for a Luby's. I heard they were both good

I did a pre order and with a burger w bacon fries and drink I was 10 cents over. I will make sure to watch them shake the fries
Yep. One time I went to a mom and pop restaurant and got a salad and I wanted bacon bits and they did not have them. But they had bacon and I said you give me a piece of bacon and I can make my own bacon bits.

Sounds like a Jack Nicholson movie.
If Isaiah brought his own plastic eating utensils it would sound even more like a Jack Nicholson movie.

They have forks and spoons too and little packets of salt and pepper for your order of fries.
I tend to rely on the restaurant to have a knife and other utensils.

I enjoyed doing both shops. The next time I am in the area, I will do theses shops again. Why do, I need more salt on my fries? I got the Cajun fries and they were really really spicy. I did not need any utensils this time around.

Wish we had one where I lived.
I always get a grilled cheese with bacon at Five Guys. Mostly because while I don't mind burgers, I get tired of them quickly. But bacon on a grilled cheese, I can eat that every day. Bonus that the grilled cheese is WAY cheaper than the burgers + the bacon is only $1.10 extra so I'm always below reimbursement.
I was only 12 cents over the reimbursement amount. I always wanted to try five guys. I got bacon on my burger
nixkit, I never want to be under reimbursement, I would have to find a way to come closer to the amount, maybe order a patty with no bun that I could take home? And more bacon? Can you ever have too much bacon?
Thanks Jasflalmt. I am tempted to drive again to that location and eat again. I wonder if I can make a HUGE offer if it is a last minute shop smiling smiley
Maybe I can ask them for triple bacon to get close to the reimbursement. The grilled cheese here are like $3.69
In front of me at Five Guys, in line to order, was a group of guys wearing yellow t-shirts. I'm guessing they worked for a landscaping company. After the guy in front of me ordered and paid, he turned to everyone behind. He held up his receipt, and yelled, '$15 for a burger, fries and drink? Are you kidding me?' He wouldn't move aside. He continued, incredulously. Looking at his receipt, he said '$3 for a small fries? No &*%&* way!' Honestly, he was flabbergasted. Before he walked away, he told the cashier that it #%x& better be worth it.

My grilled veggies in a bowl were pretty good. Fries not so much. No cheese or bacon, and I stayed under reimbursement. Tomorrow, different location, I'm gonna splurge, going over reim, and get bacon.
I'm a large woman and get stuffed on the 5 Guys little burger and little fries.
Personally I think their fries are terrible. They advertise them as "boardwalk" fries and they are in no way what I ate when we went to the "shore" when I lived back east. 5G's fries are limp!
Yes plmccut. Not my fave with the fries. I like mine crisp.

I have never been there on a nonshop alone, though I did take my cousin's kids once.
Off to do a 5 Guys and get to do another tomorrow. The one tomorrow is nicely bonused! Bonus trumps limp fries!
Absolutely. Get a double cheeseburger and eat a few fries just so you can comment about them.
