Top-Rated Burger Chain Is Also Most Expensive

Five Guys may be the most expensive fast-food chain in the country, but the food is apparently worth the price: A new YouGov survey finds Americans rank Five Guys as their top spot for a fast-food burger, ahead of Burger King, In-N-Out, Wendy's, and McDonald's. Five Guys has already been shown to have a strong fan base, despite its basic "Little Hamburger" averaging $8.25, compared with roughly $2 to $2.59 for standard hamburgers at the other four chains, per USA Today. Here's how the others measured up in the burger rankings, based on responses from more than 40,000 consumers:

1. Five Guys (15.5% of respondents)
2. Burger King (15%)
3. In-N-Out (12.1%)
4. Wendy's (10.2%)
5. McDonald's (8%)

When it comes to fries, however, Five Guys takes second place (9%), with a whopping 39% of respondents favoring McDonald's, per Sporked.
