The Secret’s Out: Five Guys Adds Fan-Favorite To Regular Menu

Salutations, Five Guys fans! The well-known burger chain has added the Patty Melt, one of the most requested changes by customers, to the regular menu.

A grilled cheese sandwich and a burger patty were sold separately, and customers could put them together to make this tasty combo. The Patty Melt is now available at all Five Guys places, so you don’t need to make it yourself.

The Important Information

At the beginning of the month, the Five Guys Instagram account said, “We saw how much our fans love the Patty Melt menu hack, so we decided to make it official!” People who liked the post couldn’t wait to tell others what they thought.

They now have a picture of the Patty Melt and a tasty description on their website. As the website describes, it comes on a warm sesame seed bun turned inside out. Inside are two slices of melty American-style cheese.

There is lots of good news for those who want to switch things up! You can include your favorite toppings, such as jalapeños, pickles, fried onions, mushrooms, or, for an extra treat, a second patty or crispy bacon.

Fans Reactions: Both Happiness And Criticism

Many people had different reactions on social media to this big story, as is usual for such stories. A hack that had been around for a long time was added to the main page, which made some fans very happy. One guy said, “I used to make those on my break when I worked there.”

“It was a nice call to put it on the menu.” “I’m hooked. With grilled cheese; it’s my favorite,” exclaimed another happy fan. The situation is better now.

But some people weren’t as happy. Some fans didn’t like that the sesame seed bun was served upside down. It looked bad, and some people said, “Upside-down buns are a crime” and “Turn the buns upside down and call it another sandwich.”

A few individuals thought the new dish was not remotely like a genuine Patty Melt. There was a question, “Have y’all ever had a patty melt?” “Because this isn’t that.”

People don’t like the Patty Melt, but it’s been talked about online, showing that Five Guys fans love their burgers and how they can make them their own.

What’s In The New Patty Melt?

What is so great about the Five Guys Patty Melt? One beef patty is placed between two perfectly melted American cheese slices, but the big treat is in the bun. Five Guys’ sesame seed bun is toasted until golden brown. The bread gets crispy and tasty this way, which goes well with the cheesy, rich burger in the middle.

You can always make your Patty Melt the way you like it. It can be changed in a lot of different ways. Flavor it up with bacon, grilled mushrooms, or jalapeños.

The Cost And Availability

An Instagram post from Five Guys says the Patty Melt is now available everywhere. There, it is not on the page you are on. The staff will know what you need if you just ask. Due to the novelty of the item, it may take some time for all places to properly update their written menus.

Prices aren’t the same everywhere. A website called All Recipes says that the Patty Melt costs around $8.39 in North Carolina, but Five Guys’ website doesn’t show prices. A regular grilled cheese costs about $6, and an extra burger piece costs about $3.

You might not expect that the new Patty Melt costs a little less than making it from scratch. People who liked the hack will get a lot out of this.

Wanna Go To The Patty Melt?

Maybe you’ve used the Patty Melt hack before, or maybe you haven’t. This new item on the menu will please anyone who wants a sweet, fatty treat. This once-diy hack is now a permanent part of Five Guys, which makes most fans happy, even if some don’t like how it looks.

You can try it by going to a nearby Five Guys and ordering a Patty Melt. If you like making things your own, you can add all of your favorite toppings. Five Guys is known for that, and this new addition lives up to that name.
