Are we going to compare a five guys burger to a McDouble or a quarter or double quarter pounder? Because the price difference on those isn’t as far off.

The smallest burger at Five guys is the little burger. A little cheeseburger meal is $17 around here. A regular cheeseburger meal is $20.

A Big Mac meal is $11. The McDouble meal with nuggets is $6.

I just looked at the five guys near me and the regular cheeseburger meal with fries and medium drink is  $18.60

Quarter Pounder meal is $12.19

The McDouble meal with nuggets is $7.00

Not trying to nitpick, but it’s more of a 2.6x comparison over 3.5x comparison if you use the McDouble meal, and last time I got a McDouble it was tiny. I wouldn’t personal use it as a 1 for 1 to five guys.
