Online platforms are buzzing with complaints about the high price of a single meal at Five Guys. The chain has solidified its reputation as one of the more expensive options for grabbing a burger on the go. Despite positioning itself as a premium choice with a higher initial cost, customers are increasingly frustrated by the rising prices.
Recently, a patron took to social media to share a receipt totaling $24.10 for a solo meal, including a bacon cheeseburger priced at $12.49, a regular soda for $2.89, and a serving of fries for $5.19.
Despite the inclusion of additional toppings and the use of fresh ingredients, discontent about the prices persists.
While some defend the costs, highlighting the quality of ingredients, others express disappointment, observing that fast food has become a luxury.
Nevertheless, as prices continue to climb throughout the fast-food sector, Five Guys remains unwavering in its commitment to a premium image, despite facing criticism for its escalating prices.
