Worst thing about 5Guys is when I get there and find out my online order is ready and I don’t have five minutes to stand around and eat the peanuts.Some have gone with me at times.

I know, right?!?! It's like every peanut shell has big white blanched peanuts inside, never those tiny dark brown rotted ones. Should rename themselves "5 Guys Peanuts" and sell what they're really best at doing.

Actually they have a Habit in Tampa and we went there, and boy was it good. The burgers and green bean fries are the best!

I'm a fan of Five Guys fries. They're not crispy, they're actually pretty limp. But they're pretty amazing tasting. A natural "sweet" nuttiness that comes from the skins being left on when they slice them.
Same here

If I eat them at home, I put them in the air fryer to crisp.

I like the Parmesan fries at Mccracken’s pub in Leesburg. Okay, they are not a stereotypical French fry but are excellent. If you want to take it up a notch, try the Shepard’s fries.

No one has mentioned Checker's fries. They are awesome! Seasoned perfectly

I keep a record of who has good fries and who has bad fries (I also do coleslaw and onion rings). I like the fries at Bonifay country club and at Beef O'Bradys. Darrell's Diner and 5 Guys are bad. Gators are so-so. By keeping my list, I know what to order at each place :)

Thrashers are the best! Go best with Bull on the Beach!

I remember them being in a large paper cone with vinegar. They were the best!

I had cold fries in Cane Garden CC and I’m not saying what happened when I complained to the kitchen
