fast food [Poll] In-N-Out VS. Five Guys [Burgers and Fries] (and other Burger Joints)

[Jonny Music 3,308]

I never saw anyone else on here make a topic like this, so I decided to start it for the heck of it ('Cuz why not?).

I know there are a good amount of some fellow members on here who are from the state of California in the United States, so you people obviously are aware of what In-N-Out is.

So as you can see in the poll I will leave up here, I'd like to see you guys have a fun and friendly discussion of which burger joint in your opinion is the best (with these two being the most infamous), no matter where in the world you are from.

Can't wait to read your opinions on this topic.

Not into burgers, and that sorta stuff besides fries.

That second picture kind of makes it easy to pick which is better :thinking:

Weird. I lived in SoCal, but never went to an in an out. Now I live in Wisconsin and now and then get 5 guys. So I guess it'll be them.

Though honorable mention to our great lakes burger joint Culvers. Though I mostly go to them for ice cream. They're like Dairy Queen, but better.

That would be because of how both of them were founded in those sides of the continent.

I've been to Five Guys, and I love it.  Never even heard of In 'n' Out until I read this topic!  Are they like Hot 'n' Now?

They are very well-known throughout southwestern-ish USA. People over there love them a lot.

I really Like Five Guys, Their Burgers and Fries were so Good!

I haven't had it in a while though.

[Thuja 3,658]

I've been lucky enough to have both.  Whenever I visit cali, I always make sure I go to In n Out.  I love the taste of their burgers and think they're superior to five guys.  Though there's also a local family-owned burger place that is pretty good too but I just go there for poutine sometimes.

I haven't been to Five Guys before, but I've gone to In-and-Out most times I went to Arizona and tbh I love it pretty much every single time, so by default that's my choice.

[Abstract 831]

In-N-Out is alright, but nothing special in my mind.

If you live in or around Texas, then you know Whataburger - they're easily my favorite place, and honestly I think Wendy's takes the cake for 2nd place.

[Megas 27,063]

Five Guys is available everywhere while In-N-Out is still mainly West coast, furthest being in Texas, so it's kinda one-sided

I live in California so I'm biased, but I'm with In-N-Out. Animal Style Cheeseburger and Animal Fries combo is god-tier

[DubWolf 16,606]

I prefer Five Guys, though they're expensive. Good value at both places , although my favorite over all would have to be Elevation Burger; I loved they're "half-the-guilt 2" burger with one meat patty and one vegan patty  . None here anymore though :C

[Frostgage 7,972]

People always rave about In N Out. I would love to try it at some point

I have had Five Guys a few times - it looks a mess but tastes delicious

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

This may seem strange but I've never been to Five Guys. I must live a sheltered life. 

I guess I'm a Burger King kind of girl. 

[Red Cedar 1,407]

White Spot.

(I'm Canadian. So is the burger place. Google it if you're curious. )

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,410]

Five Guys is okay. There is a small burger joint near my house called All American. It makes the best burgers I have ever had. Five Guys vs All American? No contest, All American blows them out of the water.

 

[RavenholmZombie 1,329]

I've never had Five Guys or In-N-Out because neither are in my area (all we have around here for burgers is McDonald's and locally-owned joints)

But I've heard good things about both and hope to try them both someday

[Brightbart 268]

In n Out since it's at least half the price if not a third of the price of Five Guys. I really like Five Guys but that place is outrageously expensive. Might as well drop the fast food act (which they already sorta do by having no drive-thru's) and go full gourmet. 

Another place that I have found to be surprisingly good is Wendy's.

I can agree with you there too. Wendy's is actually serious when it comes to how fresh and delicious their Dave's Cheeseburgers and Chicken Fillet Burgers are.

In Canada (where I live) their poutine is one of the best Fast Food chain poutines you can find.

I prefer A&W s my preferred fast food place to visit on a regular basis. I've been to Five Guys a couple of times but not anymore when I got food poisoning due to them not cooking my burger properly--the meat inside was red when it shouldn't have been.

A&W's burgers are really good too.

It's my favourite place to go though Dairy Queen is a solid second choice.
