Very good, I've had extensive experience of the US branches (having moved to the UK from the US) and the interesting thing is that the fries are very different out there, they are more like big floppy fresh fries, browner and more heavy/longer, whereas the UK ones are shorter and more crispy. The burgers are very similar - just as excellent. You should check out Shake Shack as well.

Yeah, it’s bonkers! We had a friend ask to get together over Xmas, and the only spare date we have at the moment was Dec 3rd! Tooth is all better now thankfully. As for Five Guys, yeah it was a real treat, highly recommended. The only let down was the bacon in retrospect, but with all the other customisation you can do there’s really no need for it. They do have veggie options too.

I've been twice, once to break my duck, and once to give it a second chance. Ridiculous prices for an average (at best) burger. Fries were nice but if I'm paying £15-20 for a burger, fries and drink I want serving and I don't want the burger to look like it's been 5 rounds with Mike Tyson. Good video, but I won't be heading back again. Think how much you could get from Maccas for £15 !!!!

I’ve not been back to this Five Guys since my review, so I can only imagine how much more expensive it has got in the interim! I have to say though, I do like their burger, and the fact you can completely customise to your own taste. You’re right about the value though, you can get a lot more bang for your buck elsewhere (especially if you have the apps from McD, BK, KFC etc. for their deals and offers). Thanks for watching 😀
