Its like you people have never even been to an InandOut burger... for those that haven’t experienced the full 5 guys experience allow me to share a few choice lines from the restaurant reviewer of the Irish time’s ‘worst ever meal as a restaurant reviewer‘

Irish Times 5 guys review

The milkshake tastes like someone’s soft scoop ice cream left in the sun to melt to a rubbery gloopiness and then poured into a cup and rechilled. It’s cloyingly sweet and we end up ping-ponging from fries to shake and back again, needing savoury to combat sweet, neither satisfying nor fun enough to be worth the effort.

I’d love to tell you the food makes it all better. The actual burger is fine, in an “it’s not rocket science” beefy, meaty kind of way but the bap disintegrates in a slick of ketchup and the Day-Glo orange cheese has the consistency and flavour of molten Barbie doll.
