I do service work there, not affiliated with 5guys. Every morning, fresh potatoes are cleaned, cut and made ready for the day. I eat here because I've seen the care and preparation of the food, including the meats and vegetables. I'd go as far to say if my food fell on the floor I'd still eat it. To the original question, fries are cut early but not cooked until ordered.
They are made to order fresh
Yes they are made fresh. You can see them out in the fryer if you pay attention.
