I had a huge and perfectly good burger and fries at Happy Hour at BJ's the other day. It is a few steps from my local 5G. BJ's price for both is $6 with a burger 3x the size and a very large order of fires. . It's no wonder I heard that 5G is losing business fast.

Wednesday all burgers and unlimited fries are $10. Monday is the best deal - all large pizzas HALF PRICE! If you go there and get a Mini it is only about $5 more to get a Large. Thursday is not bad, too where you get 1/2 rack of Baby Back ribs, 2 sides AND a Pizookie. Hard to beat that since the Pizookie is about $8 as is.

I'm doing BJ's and have never had their burger, although it is temping...I just eat too many burgers. I get their double boned Pork chop with mashed potato's and small salad and with the 10.00 off 40.00, can get a small pizooki, great meal, one of the best for a chain restaurant. I'm still going to work their burger in (on my own).
Not a lover of their pizza.

...do you think it's a problem not having a second drink (for the second person) on the receipt? I mean, will they figure the shake is for him and not me? Probably a stupid question, because I don't think this MSC caresl as long as the required items are on the receipt, but as always, I overthink these things. Who, me? LOL.

The few times I went to 5G I felt the price was too high for a small sandwich packed awkwardly in a paper bag and more fries than one person should eat compared to other burger places where the burgers are more substantial.

I like their food a lot, and when the fries are done right, they're delicious! But I agree the prices are getting too high. More than $5 for a small shake is crazy. If you don't want a burger or a dog (I like their hot dogs, too), you're going to go someplace else. Unless you're a vegetarian and the rest of your party insists on Five Guys, or you're a shopper trying to stay within reimbursement, who's going to go there to order a veggie sandwich? Unless you're really addicted to the fries.... I guess some people are, but as you say, you can go to BJ's and get a better value for your money plus a fantastic menu selection. I haven't eaten at 5G without it being a shop in over a year.

SoCalDude - I never order a large self serve fountain drink, unless it is specifically required by the mystery shop. It just seems wrong to me to give the extra profit to the location when I can refill my drink as often as I like. I realize it’s reimbursed on a shop but it still goes against my principles.

My father does not eat red meat. He looooooooooves going to Five Guys because I get a Grilled Cheese Sandwich for him to eat. For those who have not tried it yet please do.

I've never had the grilled cheese; I'll have to try it. I love cheese, but I don't order it on burgers or on the 5G veggie sandwich. But a grilled cheese and tomato is sometimes heaven.

I get the Large in this case so my father can fill it with some kind of Iced Tea then bring it home and fill up a decent size squirt bottle with tea he can then take to work or wherever he wants and has something to drink that he likes

Hi everyone I just did a phone shop. I forgot to order the required shake and had to call back and order and pick up the shake separately. So I have two receipts about 7 minutes apart. Has anyone had the two receipts called into question?

Curious: why do you get a large drink when you can get a regular with free refills?
