Scores use the UK nutrient profiling model 2018, published by the Department of Health and Social Care in January 2026, computed per 100g from portion weights derived from the per 100g column in the Five Guys UK allergen, ingredient and nutrition guide dated 5 August 2026. Points are given for energy, saturated fat, free sugars and salt, then subtracted for protein, fibre and fruit, vegetable, nut and seed content. A lower score is better. Foods scoring 4 or more and drinks scoring 1 or more are classed as less healthy.

Fibre is Five Guys' own published figure. Fruit, vegetable, nut and seed content is scored as zero throughout, because Five Guys does not publish ingredient percentages; that slightly understates the Lettuce Wrap and Veggie Sandwich. Free sugars exclude the lactose in dairy, deducted at 1.3g for every gram of milk protein. Milkshakes are scored as drinks at the regular size.

Items are scored as published, without toppings. The Heathrow-only breakfast and coffee menu and loose peanuts are excluded. That leaves 41 items.

Frequently asked questions

What is the healthiest thing at Five Guys UK?+

The Lettuce Wrap at -2, on the government's 2018 nutrient profiling model. It picks up only 4 penalty points and earns them back on protein and fibre. The plain fries follow at 0, and the Veggie Sandwich at 2.

What is the healthiest burger at Five Guys?+

None score well. The best is the Little Hamburger at 14 and the worst the Little Bacon Cheeseburger at 20. Every burger passes 11 penalty points, mostly from saturated fat and salt, so the model withholds its protein credit.

Are Five Guys fries healthier than a burger?+

On this model, yes: Boone records plain fries at 0 and a Cheeseburger at 19. Fries carry little saturated fat and no free sugar, and plenty of fibre, which the 2018 model rewards. The model scores per 100g, so it does not count the size of the portion.

How many Five Guys items are above the government threshold?+

Boone scores 32 of the 41 ranked items above it: 18 of 27 foods score 4 or more, and all 14 milkshakes score 1 or more. The 9 items that pass are the Lettuce Wrap (-2), all four sizes of plain fries (0), the Veggie Sandwich (2) and the Little, Regular and Large Cajun fries (1 to 3). The Mini Cajun fries just miss at 4, because the same serving of seasoning goes on a smaller portion.

What is the nutrient profiling model?+

It is the UK government's method for classifying food and drink as less healthy. Points are added for energy, saturated fat, free sugars and salt, then subtracted for protein, fibre and fruit, vegetable, nut and seed content, all per 100g. The Department of Health and Social Care published the updated 2018 version in January 2026, which is the one Boone uses.

Does a high score mean an item is unsafe?+

No. The model is a classification threshold for advertising and promotion rules, not a health warning. It measures nutritional composition per 100g and says nothing about portion size, so a large fries and a Mini fries score the same. Boone publishes separate rankings for calories, sugar, salt and protein.

Is this the model used for the current HFSS rules?+

Not yet. The advertising and promotion restrictions in force run on the earlier 2004/05 model. Boone uses the 2018 version because it measures free sugars rather than total sugars and salt rather than sodium, in line with current dietary recommendations.
