They're both good... Five Guys has cajun fries so that wins for me.
I'd also add what others have -Culvers in the midwest is great. They have TONS near PJ20... I recommend them to anyone coming in that hasnt had one yet (they have branched out quite a bit in the country).
But I'd go with Smashburger over both... they just opened here and I have to say they will be the reason I have a clogged artery way too soon.
just tried 5 guys for the first time. pretty good but not $25 good for three "little burgers", one fry and two drinks.

Since five guys would kill me, but I've always wanted to try in and out, my vote is for in and out.
pretty similar burger.

Funny, my 11 year old son and I just had this battle on Friday.
5Guys just opened right across the street from In-n-Out near our house. We tried 5 guys for the first time on Friday night and................I'll take in-n-out anyday over that mess at 5 guys. I thought the best thing there was the overhead music.
My burger was ok, My son loved his, said it was better than In-n-Out (strongly disagree) and the price was just not worth it.
$30 for 3 burgers, a large fry for us all to share and 3 small drinks, too expensive.
and what the hell with all the workers in there yelling? ugh, it was obnoxious............I longed for a double double across the street!

I didn't know 5 Guys was a more upper-crust eatery. For that dough, you may as well go to The Stand.
i think i'll be finally able to try in n out when i'm in san fran
Finally went to one. First thing i did when i landed. Friend took me to one outside San Rafael. Burgers were great. I didn't care for their fries though. Five guys has better fries, but give a slight edge to In n out on the burger.

a five guys burger, fries and drink is like $15 here in canada ... i might as well goto my local place and get a burger that is organic beef with better toppings for that price ... in and out is way better value ... although on burger taste alone and the option of toppings i would go with 5 guys ...
I haven't had In 'N Out, but it would have to be darn good to be better than Five Guys. I think their burgers are the best I've had and I think the same thing about the fries. I don't think it's all that pricey. I get the small hamburger, fries and a cup of water and am out of there for $6.35. In fact, I will skip going to more expensive, gourmet burger places because I can't bear to pay more (or the same) for inferior quality.
The only people we should try to get even with...
...are those who've helped us.

Ate In-N-Out twice in 2 days on my last vacation. 5 Guys is good and the peanuts are a nice touch, but nothing like In-N-Out.
