5 Guys and In-N-Out aren't really direct competitors given the difference in price. In-N-Out competes against the low bar $5-$8 avg meal QSR's like McDonalds, BK, Wendys etc. while Five Guys competes against the higher priced $9-$12 avg meal QSR's like Smash Burger, Shake Shack, and Habit

Lol I love how people can claim some places are complete shit only fit for dogs then hail a place serving very comparable food as the next coming of jesus
And Whataburger is a perfect medium, slightly higher price, slightly longer wait, but it's worth it.

Yeah.. In Westwood by UCLA there used to be an In-N-Out and a Five Guys just a few blocks from each other. Guess which one is still open? (Hint: it's In-N-Out).

Whataburger is getting closer to the pricey tier. My local Whataburger just went up about 50cents on every combo on the menu last week.

5 guys sucks ass. I'd rather go to a Red Robin and I'd still save money.

I like both of them but in fairness I like almost all food in general.
I don't know what the term for that is but I can guarantee you I would like a burger from pretty much anywhere so long as it wasn't cooked wrong.
I have never actually been to shake shack but I would be highly surprised if I didn't like it. I like Five Guys a lot, but they aren't the same thing or even going for the same market.

In n out is the shit. Simple tasty burger made with fresh ingredients and it's priced decently.
It's not the best burger ever, but it's pretty damn good.
Five guys is ok but way over priced and i swear to God, ive never had a five guys burger where the damn buns stays in tact. It's always saugy and falling apart. Wtf.

$15 for a burger and fries (not even counting the drink) at a fast food joint is expensive, fuck that noise.

10 dollars for a burger is excessive. Five Guys is good but I do not consider it even sort of reasonably priced.

if you order the biggest burger and large/family fries it's $15, sure
also fast casual != fast food

True. I went to a Byron burger in the UK and it was probably close to $30 bucks to eat there.
Wait, food costs money? Lol, so that's where that little decimal point is going all the time! Guess I don't have to fire my second personal accountant.
No matter what you order at Five Guys, you're paying at least double the price for the corresponding item on In-N-Out's menu.

This thread has made me want a Five Guys badly.
We don't have In-N-Out in the UK, but FG is incredible.

Lets have a real conversation here. When it comes to burger chains that have all of their franchises on ONE side of the Mississippi river, which one is the best? In-N-Out is probably hands down the west coast representative since Whataburger is on both sides of the Mississippi. Which chain would rep the East though? Cookout?

Gordon Ramsay loves In-N-Out and you should too
Agreed.
Japan has no FG but has like 3 Shake Shack locations now.
Don't care about brands but it's harder than not to find "smashed" style burgers here, especially for cheap(ish).

Getting a plain cheeseburger at In N Out is literally doing it wrong. Double Double Animal Style is the correct choice.

Wow what a deal

listen to the mad man
it's actually just one desperate east coast mod arguing with himself because he can't get in n out and he's sad
But Gordon Shamsay is wrong about pineapple pizza, soooo...

Ah. I've never watched a mod go through the 5 stages of grief via thread title changes. Current title is the denial stage? There's a first for everything I guess

Steak N Shake makes a good milkshake, but those hamburgers? Eh.
In-N-Out is a mediocre chain celebrated by mediocre people.
