    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

      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

    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
      @kylebrouwn6768 2 года назад +7

      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.

    Should have tested this with individual orders of fries. My theory is that they fill the cup, then regardless of what you order, an extra scoop goes in the big.

    I noticed y'all complaining about the cost of the burgers/cheese burgers, but I didn't hear any mention of the 20 or so free toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onion, mayo, mustard, catsup, relish, hot sauce, bell peppers, jalapeño pepper, A. 1.sauce, and if you want you can order your burger with bacon an then add any or all of the freebie toppings. Same goes for the dogs. There's also BLTs with the add on toppings.

  • @Goo_kazoo
    @Goo_kazoo 3 года назад +6

    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.

    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.

    Yeah, Five Guys' strategy is based around delivering the exact same product all over the world. I was surprised to see they even went as far as translating the menu signs in countries like Germany (they didn't bother in the Netherlands and Belgium). Calling their European numbers just forwards you to a U.S. agent.
    Also, directly comparing the ingredients of a U.S. product to that of a European product, while interesting, won't yield a particularly useful result. U.S. and EU (/UK) labeling regulations are wildly different. If you marketed the exact same product in the U.S. and the EU, there's a very good chance the ingredient lists would look nothing alike.
