    • All the workers have forearm tattoos

    • At least 3 people are wearing beanies in the middle of summer

    • Bacon is $4 extra

    • The burger comes out on a bun drenched in butter and is so greasy/oily that halfway through it may as well have been served in a bowl

      Also the heat is cranked up uncomfortably high. The air is muggy. The whole place smells of onion.

    Why is this so accurate

    Half of the “artisan” burger chains in my city are marginally better than a fast-food chain. One, maybe two of them make burgers so good that they’re worth the occasional splurge.

    There’s a BBQ place near me, and I ordered tater tots there once, as a side. They were $4. They literally gave me 4 tater tots. They were one dollar apiece.

    To be fair, Five Guys is every bit as expensive. But I’ll take Five Guys over most of those places anyway. Free peanuts is tempting.

      Five guys is a $15 burger with no sides place not a $20 burger with no sides place.

        Man. Maybe I’m lucky, but the five guys near me is 11.29 for a full sized cheeseburger with no sides. 12.69 is the most expensive one with bacon but I usually just do the little one which is 8.79.

        They do charge an arm and a leg for the fries, though. Which I guess is to be expected since their measurements for a small fry is “all of them”

      Have I just gone to a bad Five Guys? I went to one once last year and the burger was mediocre at best and the fries were greasy to the point of being sickening. I haven’t gone back since.

    Burger King has a new burger that I like, and it’s $10 (burger only). I would order it lots if it was $7 to 8, but $10 is a tad much.

    Eating out now days is just too expensive in general. If I’m going to eat out, I rather go to an actual restaurant, because fast food costs about the same now days. $14-16 fast food mean vs $12-22 for sit down meal. I can keep the fast food costs down, but that’s usually without a meal, and/or ordering inferior products.

    In my neck of the PNW they may cost $25 but they come with a side

    And that shit’s fire, worth every damn penny

    My roommate and I usually go out once a month to snag some food from those places and try to hit up different ones each time

    Very accurate. Unfortunately for me, the place that looks like this, also has the very best burgers.

    There’s a restaurant in Florida called “The Ormond Garage” and they don’t serve fries with the burger. It’s another like $6 for fries that aren’t even that good. I went there once and they didn’t have to go cups for the meal that I called in… The server told me she could get me a regular cup and I could just drink it there while they were putting my $15 burger into a takeout box.

    I contemplated walking out with the beer glass they handed me, but I just left.
