Five Guys doesn't actually give you "extra" fries. They give you a specific portion that they've calculated into the price. They place them into the bag and let you perceive that as "extra" as part of their brand.

[@bruh-sf4gw]

Yeah kinda true. I work at fives guys in the UK and in the training they talk about being very generous with fries ouside the cup but 90% of the time just depends on how many fries are cooked and how many orders there are. Also top tip: if you "forget" to order fries online and go to pick it up (at least where I'm working) they will just give you them for free

[@Dylan6249]

Also, as an employee of Five Guys, in one of the training videos the employee asked a group of people if they wanted their fries refilled and did so free of charge. Not sure if that's ever been done properly but it's made me wonder

[@mariahpoindexter9489]

Lol I’m a five guys worker in America and we profit a lot on or fries and drinks so they dont care about giving you a lot of fries because either way we make a profit off of them. It all depends on who works and how many fries were dropped but the company itself doesn’t care if we put 3 large fry worth of fries for a small because we still made a profit

Must you make this exact comment on every food wars video?

[@jjaptae5699]

as someone who works at five guys i recommend getting a regular sized fry (in america at least) when you go. the regular and little cup sizes look quite similar and the large looks like it has a huge difference to a regular, which might make you go for the large if you want a lot of fries, but it holds just about the same amount of fries and costs a lot more. always go with the regular

[@kylebrouwn6768]

As another 5 guys employee, that's not entirely true. The small and regular do basically have the same amount of fries, but the large absolutely has more fries than the reg and the small. My advice is getting a little if you're on your own, and getting just one or two larges for everyone to share if you're in a group; 1 large is about the same as 4 smalls in terms of quantity, but 1 large is only half the price of 4 smalls. With so many of the people who openly complain about the prices one of the things I often see them do is buy too many small fries, when they could've just bought 1 of the bigger sizes to share and save a lot of money.

It’s like Five Guys tried to go a tad overboard with the American fast food stereotype over here to make it "authentic" (honestly it probably actually is the closest thing we have here to authentic American). It’s weird.

[@rozasupreme]

Fun fact with the Fries. The cup is an illusion. What you're given is always the same, the cup is just there to make it look like you're getting more than you ordered.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Is Five Guys overpriced? Yes but are we still gonna buy their food? Yup because no matter the prices, we will find ourselves still crawling back. Their shakes and peanuts are pretty good. And yes, they have the peanuts there as something to keep the customers occupied as you wait for your food. They don't want customers to stare into the kitchen

[@barrykevin7658]

Problem is I hate peanuts and now I know they cook everything in peanut oil .So that's mo 5 guys for me . Anyway making my own will be Much better quality and tastier .

[@bruh-sf4gw]

Actually they do want you to watch them cook. It's a marketing thing about giving the customer an "inside experience" or some shit. They talked about it when I was training there

You ordered three sizes that’s why the excess isn’t as much, it’s split three ways. Order one size and the excess will be the outside piles. That’s why I only order small, they always fill the bag with more regardless of size of fries ordered.

I worked at a 5 guys for 4 years. I sometimes still have nightmares of rolling the meat every morning. We had to weigh each patty--between 3.3 and 3.5 oz was the standard. It loses considerable weight after grilling. Cutting the hotdog in half is the best way to cook it! All beef too. Every fry order is different lol. It depends on the person making them. Prices are outrageous for the food. They always rose too. It was an easy job but pretty fun and the free meal every shift was a great bonus.

[@sydnekelley1603]

Speaking of nightmares, I have one of me smashing the meat but the mountain on the tray never gets any less. I also now I pain in my wrist from being forced to try and do the fries with one hand.

Joe got so mad at the fact that they cut hotdogs in half. I can’t blame him to be honest. It’s just... wrong.

If they don't cut them in half, the hotdog doesn't cook right on the grill. I used to run the grill at a 5 Guys, so I know these things.

[@WellBattle6]

For the fries, it’s 2 extra scoops per one overall order. So since your order consisted of 3 orders of fries in one order, you only got the two scoops. The better way to measure is to measure all the extra fries with each cup of fries or have 3 separate orders and not one massive order.
