Five Guys has a relatively simple menu, but almost every burger, hot dog, and sandwich can be customized.

Your biggest nutrition decisions are usually not hidden in the menu name. They come from the number of burger patties, cheese, bacon, bun, toppings, fry size, and milkshake mix-ins you choose.

Use the Five Guys Nutrition Calculator above to compare standard menu items or combine the foods and toppings that match your actual order.

Regular Burgers and Little Burgers Are Not the Same Portion

At Five Guys, the word Little matters.

A regular Hamburger, Cheeseburger, Bacon Burger, or Bacon Cheeseburger is made with two beef patties. The Little versions use one patty.

Current Five Guys menu values are approximately:

Burger

Calories

Hamburger

840

Little Hamburger

540

Cheeseburger

980

Little Cheeseburger

610

Bacon Burger

920

Little Bacon Burger

620

Bacon Cheeseburger

1,060

Little Bacon Cheeseburger

690

That makes patty count one of the largest differences in a Five Guys burger order.

If you want to compare burgers, make sure you select the exact regular or Little version rather than treating them as different names for the same serving.

Toppings Are Free, but They Are Not All Calorie-Free

Five Guys allows you to add a large selection of toppings to burgers, hot dogs, and sandwiches.

Vegetable toppings such as lettuce, tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and green peppers add relatively few calories.

Condiments can make a larger difference.

Current menu values include approximately:

Mayo: 110 calories

BBQ Sauce: 50 calories

Ketchup: 30 calories

A.1. Sauce: 15 calories

Mustard: 0 calories

Choosing several toppings can therefore change the final burger even when the meat and cheese stay exactly the same.

For a customized order, calculate the toppings you actually use instead of relying only on the plain burger value.

“All the Way” Adds Several Ingredients at Once

One of the standard Five Guys topping combinations is All the Way .

It includes grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, and mayo.

The vegetables themselves contribute relatively little, but mayo and ketchup make the complete combination more substantial.

If you order All the Way, your burger should reflect those toppings rather than the nutrition of a completely plain burger.

Going Bunless Changes the Burger Significantly

Five Guys allows burgers, hot dogs, and sandwiches to be ordered without the standard bun.

Current options include:

Lettuce Wrap

and

Burger Bowl

The regular hamburger bun itself currently contributes about 240 calories and 39g of carbohydrates before the meat or toppings are considered.

Removing it therefore makes a meaningful difference to calories and carbs.

But bunless does not mean the finished meal has no carbs or extra calories. Ketchup, BBQ sauce, relish, cheese, mayo, and other toppings still contribute their own nutrition.

The calculator should ideally let you choose:

Regular bun → Lettuce wrap → Bowl

instead of forcing every burger into the standard-bun nutrition.

Cheese and Bacon Should Be Treated as Real Additions

Adding cheese or bacon affects more than the burger name.

The current Five Guys nutrition guide lists approximately 70 calories for one slice of cheese , while two pieces of bacon provide around 70 calories, depending on the supplier.

These ingredients also add protein, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium.

That is why the calorie difference between a Hamburger and Bacon Cheeseburger becomes substantial.

If you customize a burger instead of ordering one of the standard named versions, add the actual cheese and bacon portions.

Five Guys Fries Have Large Serving Differences

Five Guys fries come in Little, Regular, and Large sizes.

Current official Five Guys Style values are approximately:

Little Fries: 526 calories

Regular Fries: 953 calories

Large Fries: 1,314 calories

The jump between sizes is significant.

A Regular order of fries can contain more calories than several Five Guys burgers, so fry size deserves to be treated as a major part of the meal rather than a minor side.

Cajun Fries Are Slightly Different From Five Guys Style

Five Guys offers both its standard fries and Cajun Style fries.

Both start with potatoes cooked in refined peanut oil, but Cajun fries receive additional seasoning.

Current official values are approximately:

Little Cajun Fries: 540 calories

Regular Cajun Fries: 967 calories

Large Cajun Fries: 1,328 calories

Cajun seasoning also raises sodium compared with the equivalent Five Guys Style serving.

NutritionSolver should therefore treat Five Guys Style and Cajun Style as separate fry choices.

Hot Dogs Can Be Customized Like Burgers

Five Guys currently offers:

Hot Dog

Cheese Dog

Bacon Dog

Bacon Cheese Dog

Current standard calorie values are approximately:

Hot Dog: 520 calories

Cheese Dog: 590 calories

Bacon Dog: 600 calories

Bacon Cheese Dog: 670 calories

These values can change further once toppings are added.

Just like the burgers, the useful nutrition result is the hot dog after customization , not simply the base menu name.

Sandwiches Now Include More Than the Traditional Four

Five Guys serves non-burger sandwiches such as the Veggie Sandwich, Cheese Veggie Sandwich, Grilled Cheese, and BLT.

The current menu has also expanded with items such as the Patty Melt , and select locations offer egg-based breakfast sandwiches.

The current Patty Melt is listed at approximately 790 calories .

Because these products use different combinations of bread, cheese, bacon, eggs, vegetables, or beef, each should have its own nutrition entry rather than being estimated from a burger.

A Five Guys Milkshake Starts With a 670-Calorie Base

The standard Five Guys vanilla shake base currently contains about 670 calories before the final mix-in combination is considered.

Customers can then add ingredients such as:

Strawberry

Banana

Chocolate

Coffee

Peanut butter

Oreo pieces

Oreo crème

Reese’s Cups

Bacon

Salted caramel

and seasonal flavors.

This makes shake nutrition highly customizable.

The current menu also features a limited-time Blackberry mix-in.

For the most useful shake calculation, start with the base and then add the exact mix-ins included in your drink.

Multiple Shake Mix-Ins Can Add Up

Two Five Guys shakes can have the same vanilla base but very different final nutrition.

For example:

Vanilla shake + fruit mix-in

and

Vanilla shake + peanut butter + candy + Oreo crème

are very different drinks.

Five Guys itself notes that nutrition varies when multiple mix-ins are combined.

That makes milkshakes another category where ingredient-level calculation is more valuable than one generic “Five Guys shake calories” figure.

Fries Are Cooked in Peanut Oil

Five Guys states that its fries are cooked in 100% refined peanut oil .

The restaurants also serve peanuts.

This information is especially useful for allergen context, although anyone with a food allergy should rely on the restaurant's current allergen guidance and discuss their needs directly with the restaurant rather than using calorie data alone.

Build the Entire Five Guys Order

A realistic Five Guys meal might be:

Little Cheeseburger + toppings + Little Cajun Fries + drink

or:

Bacon Cheeseburger All the Way + Regular Fries + shake

Looking only at the burger can leave out a large portion of the meal.

For a useful total, calculate:

Burger, dog, or sandwich

plus

toppings

plus

fries

plus

drink or shake

Calculate the Five Guys Order You Actually Build

Five Guys is one of the restaurant menus where customization matters most.

Start with the exact regular or Little burger, hot dog, or sandwich , choose the bun, lettuce wrap, or bowl , and then add the cheese, bacon, vegetables, sauces, and other toppings you actually order.

Finally, include your Five Guys Style or Cajun fries, drink, and shake mix-ins .

That produces a much more meaningful nutrition total than using the calorie number for a plain burger alone.
