What is Five Guys Cheeseburger?

A Five Guys Cheeseburger is an American-style burger built around a beef patty and melted cheese in a soft bun, with toppings and sauces chosen to suit the order. It reflects the customizable, made-to-order burger style associated with the US fast-casual chain.

It is usually eaten hot as a substantial lunch or dinner, often alongside fries and a drink; elsewhere, it can also be a convenient takeaway meal. The beef and cheese provide protein, while the bun supplies much of the carbohydrate. At 285 calories per 100 g, it is a fairly energy-dense choice, with relatively little fibre. For a lighter meal, go easy on rich sauces, add vegetable toppings, or share fries rather than making them the main side.
