    Fantastic food, great service. The music is too loud and I didn't care for it.

    The only thing I liked was the hamburgers being handmade. So soft.

    I usually have lunch at one of the 5 Guys Burger branches, and as usual today, I placed my regular order, which is clearly shown on the receipt. Whether the order is a combo or not, the price remains the same. Then I ordered a drink , and unexpectedly, the cashier requested that I pay the full price for the drink separately. I handed her the receipt to verify, explaining that the price does not change whether it's part of a combo or not. She insisted that I hadn't paid for the drink and stated that this is the policy at this location. I was disappointed by the time wasted during this misunderstanding. I would like to express my concern regarding the lack of consistency in service and the inconvenience caused, which reflects poorly on customer experience. I kindly advise reviewing the procedures to ensure clarity and fairness in transactions, and I regret having to spend valuable time resolving such a matter. For the sake of efficiency and customer satisfaction, I would recommend improving staff training and communication to better respect customers' time and expectations.
