Five Guys - no more combo meals?

April 03, 2026 10:17PM
It looks like Five Guys is no longer offering the combo meal, at least in our area (Columbus, OH). The ones in the Toledo area never offered it, but their prices were a little lower to make up for it. However, the prices are still the same around here. $5.59 for Little Fries and $3.49 for a regular drink. Thankfully the reimbursement covers you for a Little Hamburger, and you're only paying around 50 cents out of pocket if you order a Little Cheeseburger or Patty Melt.

What have others experienced? Maybe they are expanding the promo to some markets and removing it from others.

The 5g burger is not as overpriced as people claim. Certainly, when you are comparing to In N Out $20 vs $10 for combo, you think it's a rip, but its a much larger burger and it is more fries too.

I'm not saying I'm comfortable paying $20...I'm just saying people are not being scientific in their comparisons and only looking at cost.

Still available in SoCal, 13.99 for a lil cheeseburger, little fry and regular drink. Come outs under the reimbursement after tax. On the app there's up option to upgrade to a different sandwich or get the bacon lil cheeseburger that comes out to 17.23 after tax.

Make it a Meal disappeared in South Florida a few weeks ago. Now I go over the reimbursement even with a little hamburger. The only way to stay under is a hot dog or grilled cheese.

I guess somebody has to shop those items! I suppose it's time for me to try out one of their hot dogs. All these shops I've done and I've never ordered one.

I did one last night in Illinois, and the cashier rang up my order as a classic combo.

They are still available in Southeast Michigan.

A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men.

They took down the signage but are still able to ring it up as a combo meal here in greater DC area. They did raise the price of the combo. I think it was 14.99 yesterday making it $16.79 with tax yesterday.
