    Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Employee Misconduct at Five Guys Location on New Year’s Eve Five Guys Burgers and Fries Corporate Office 1940 Duke Street, 5th floor, Alexandria, VA 23314 January 2, 2026 Dear Five Guys Corporate Team, I am writing to lodge a strong complaint about the unprofessional and offensive behavior of three employees at your 316 North Main, West Hartford, 06511 restaurant on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2025. While I was seated enjoying my meal, a DoorDasher entered to pick up an order. As he exited professionally, three Black male employees—two appearing 50-60 years old and one in his 20s—made derogatory remarks about him, gossiping loudly about his appearance, calling him “slow,” and criticizing his attire. This conduct was deeply offensive and unacceptable, especially as I have experience working with special needs children and recognize such comments as discriminatory and harmful. Employees in a low-wage role like grilling burgers and bagging fries have no right to belittle others, calling people slow, or criticizing on how doordashers or customers dress..particularly the older staff who should know better. This incident disrupted my dining experience and reflects poorly on your brand’s commitment to respect and inclusivity. I demand a thorough investigation, disciplinary action against these individuals, and training on workplace professionalism and anti-discrimination policies. Please respond within 14 days with details of the steps taken. Sincerely, Paul Smith

    Today was my first time visiting this Five Guys, and the customer service was terrible. The staff seemed annoyed the entire time while taking my order. It made the experience very uncomfortable. I live just one minute away, but I don’t plan on coming back. I’d rather drive farther to go to McDonald’s.
