P. Terry's Burger Stand #19

I'm a fan of the simple, unfrilly, and relatively inexpensive offerings of P.
Terry's.
I've come to this location a handful of times and have always been satisfied by the quality.
The fries are delicious and hot.
The patties are thin, but good.
The shakes are thick.
The burgers are quite customizable.
All good things.
This last time I went, I ordered a lettuce wrap.
Ordinarily, I'll get a single patty, but this time I wanted some more protein.
I'm not a fan of American cheese, so I didn't want the double cheeseburger, so I asked for a double burger.
The burger stand employees happily complied. However, the pricing here is inconsistent, and as a principle, I find this unacceptable.
(In the most lighthearted of ways, but also seriously.) The single hamburger costs 2.85.
The single cheeseburger costs 3.45.
By this reckoning, P.
Terry's is valuing the price of cheese at 60 cents.
The double cheeseburger costs 4.85.
I asked for a double hamburger and they charged me the 2.85 for the burger plus 2.05 for extra meat.
This comes to 4.90.
This is obviously not an insane amount to pay for a burger, but that is not my point.
My point is that a double hamburger somehow costs 5 cents more than a double cheeseburger, when the cheeseburger comes with more, namely two slices of cheese.
Which, according to the difference in price between a single hamburger and a single cheeseburger, should be valued at 1.20.
This means that a double burger should be 3.65.
Tbh, I don't care how much you charge for cheese, I just have a problem with inconsistency in pricing, and that a double burger without cheese somehow costs more than a double burger with cheese. I rest my case.

Outstanding.
Great place to grab a lettuce 🥬 wrapped double burger.

First time trying P.Terry's.
I see them from the highway throughout the area.
Mostly a drive through, however, they do have a walk up window to order from.
Tried a cheeseburger combo.
Value seems excellent.
Food quality was good.
I enjoyed the fries, though, it did take a few before I realised this.
They're handcut, not overly salted.
The burger was definitely better than a typical fast food burger.
The lettuce and tomato were ok, lettuce was white, tomato was not fully ripe, but the sauce was good. I think design wise, this place is a hit.
I enjoy the 1950's, space age look they go for.
Makes it stand out regardless of the location.
I'll definitely try them again.
