Five Guys - Dubuque

Good burgers and pommes. Sandwiches can use a number of spices, as few or as many as you want. Regular size hairs are a good portion of size to share. The prices are a little more than you could pay for similar competitors, but you will probably enjoy every bite you pay. I personally enjoy the Bacon Cheeseburger.

Burgers are delicious and spicy frits are also good! They were open on Easter Sunday, and we really know they were open because nothing else was opened in Dubuque for dinner. The staff was also super friendly!

Good burgers and an amazing bacon peanut butter milkshake also they dont hold back on how much bacon u get if u add it to your milkshake also the bacon stays crispy throughout the whole time you eat it

Don’t have your open sign on if you plan on closing early due to lack of staff. If you can’t make one burger for one patient hungry customer with one employee and you’re short staffed, you really need to re-evaluate your entire staff. When you get food here during the day it’s good. Don’t count on them being open at 8:15 p.m even though their business hours say 10. For the price you might as well skip this joint and do Culvers at least you won’t feel robbed and they have a drive thru.

Positive: 1) Cajun seasoning on fries has good flavor but is over-salty. 2) Give you way more fries than you ask for, every time. Trust me no matter how much you like fries, you don 't need larger than a small. If you do, you shouldn 't. 3) Don 't charge for toppings. Well, kinda. $80 burger but FREE TOPPINGS. Same for shakes. Nice, but clearly charging you as if everyone is ordering in the top 20%. 4) Shakes are good enough that it 's hard not to order one, but it will cost you an arm and a leg and bump your total cost over $20. For a burger, fries, and shake. 5) Offer malt vinegar for fries which is awesome. Only Long John Silver 's offers this besides 5G and it 's unfortunate. Props here. 6) Friendly staff. Looks like an arduous job but always impressed with their friendly staff so whatever they 're doing to achieve that is commendable. 7) Free peanuts. Who cares but a nice touch. Nagative: 1) Insanely overpriced. You literally will pay the cost of two meals for one meal here. Not exaggerating. 2) No combos. 3) Food takes forever but I guess that 's the price you pay for fresh. However, with modern analytics it should be easy to predict demand with arbitrary accuracy. No excuse in 2022 when we know the math. You 're just choosing to make your customers wait. 4) Burger buns are soggy. If you enjoy wet buns on your burgers 5 Guys is the place for you. They don 't butter or grill their buns for enhanced flavor and crisp freshness either. Basic burger-building 101. 5) The walls are covered in an obnoxious, tasteless, self-aggrandizing collection of promotional material that 's just kind of gross, replete with grammatical errors. If you 're truly committed to decor glorifying yourself, at least exhibit a 3rd-grade command of English. No inviting decor or character. Just low-effort try-hard promo materials. It 's like they vomitted their lack of parental-approval complex all over their walls and attempted to glorify it. It 's the same sort of insecure narcissism that Freddy 's partakes in. Yuck. 6) Wet floor orange cones just sitting out front and center and tucked in corners waiting for a wet floor, even when there isn 't one. If you enjoy being surrounded by wet floor orange cones when there 's no wet floor, 5 Guys is your place. 7) No milkshake size choices. If smallish-medium is your ideal shake size you 're covered but forget everyone else. They also don 't place the toppings on top before they stir so 60% of your toppings will be left on the bottom, even when you drink the whole thing before your food even comes. Also, the straws are cheap and collapse making it difficult to consume. Your toppings will clog the straw, too. 8) Burgers aren 't that great. A step up from fast food but if I want to pay a fortune for a burger and have a better one then I 'll go to Red Robin. If I want a burger, however, I don 't typically want to deal with a restaurant experience so that 's why you might want 5G and just dissociate from the cost. .
