While fast-food fans often rave about the quality and taste of Five Guys’ food, the burger chain is also no stranger to complaints about its prices.
Five Guys recently found itself at the center of customer backlash yet again after a viral social media post illustrated just how pricey it has become to eat there in 2024.
On March 1, a consumer took to X (the social media site formerly known as Twitter) to share a photo of a Five Guys receipt.
The picture showed that the grand total for one bacon cheeseburger, a regular soda, and a small fry came out to $24.10 after taxes and a $2.19 tip.
The X user who posted it, @WallStreetSilv, slammed the chain’s prices as “out of control”—and they were far from alone in their feelings about the cost of eating at Five Guys.
The post has now received 25 million views and 12,000 comments from other X users, many of whom sounded off against the chain.
