She held the receipt up to the camera. The order total was $70.10, and after a $3.53 tip, came out to $74.10.

"Five Guys" is not a sit down restaurant, no tip is necessary.

All the burgers can come loaded, so they are priced accordingly. The French Fries are overfilled by design, and are also priced accordingly.

Cleanliness, good quality, uniformity, reasonable speed are what they strive for. Something had to give. That something is price.

$70.10/4 = about $17.50 per person.

A Dave's Double Combo at Wendy's is $11.50 in Tempe, AZ. Is Five Guys half again as good as Wendy's? Many people think so.

The cost per person was $16.30 before tax and tip. I do wonder whether the gratuity is automatic on orders over a certain amount. If not she sure lives up to her cheapskate name. If she can afford $71.00 (rounded up) meal she can fork over at least a 10% tip.
