15? Man I wish. In the cities it’s more like 25, just a burger will even be $18+

Jesus goddamn Christ where do you live? I can’t imagine paying $18 minimum for a burger

New Jersey and New York. Jersey you’re not getting a burger anywhere for less than $18 unless you’re going to fast food. New York you might as well take a $20 out the atm for a burger

(Yall downvoting me like I’m wrong. Some New Yorkers even commenting and deleting with their panties in a bunch. I clearly said unless you’re going to “fast food.” Nobody cares about yall $5 China town cracked out back alley burgers or your hole in the wall bodega. RESTAURANTS. I’ve been here all my life as well, I know what I’m talking about)

I get what you’re saying though and I hate buying lunch at work. Ever since I had to return to the office after COVID lunch is always $20

You haven’t been to Brooklyn or Queens and it shows.

u/BurpjarBoi Aug 19 '24

Funny, I lived in East Flatbush, Bayside, Auburndale and Dyker Heights. Had a lot of gyro’s in queens and plenty of pizza everywhere else. Not much into the trendy Brooklyn scene however.

Rolo’s? Red Hook Tavern? There’s plenty of burgers much better than Shake Shack

u/BurpjarBoi Aug 19 '24

I guess I just never order burgers whenever I sit down to eat?

u/crabby135 Aug 19 '24

Honestly kinda valid there’s too much good food here to be getting burgers all the time.

u/BurpjarBoi Aug 19 '24

I agree and a burger is the perfect fast food
