Five Guys Burgers in Ajax offers good burgers and fries, but in enormous portions (think American platters) and they’re quite pricey. With kids, a family might blow a whole week’s budget. A little burger with fries comes to $10.03, before a drink. They don’t offer a combo discount. We have gone here, but it’s a treat for us.
Keep in mind:
Regular burger = 2 huge patties (cheeseburger is 840 calories)
Little burger = 1 pattie (cheeseburger is 550 calories)
Regular Fries (620 calories per 244gr) is enough for two, easily. Also, the fries are cooked in peanut oil, which has 6gr saturated fat.
Their website lists all the nutritional info, so good on them. I really appreciate it.
New Canadian regulations mean that caloric information is now on the menu which helps when you’re ordering.
Allergic to nuts? Sadly, you’ll have to skip this place. Roasted peanuts are available while you wait to order or when you wait for your food.
I love that they list on a chalkboard where the potatoes come from (PEI).
You can order delivery through Skip the Dishes.
