Shake Shack
“As a long time Chick-Fil-A customer, their chicken sandwich has always reigned supreme for me, but the ChickensShack has just eclipsed it.”
“Will be back bc of the convenient location near 34th/Macy's. Tried the bacon cheeseburger.”
“With such a convenient location (until the one inside Penn Station opens up), I'll be sure to return on many occasions and will be trying the ChickenShack because it looks delicious!!!”

Went here a couple times only because I had never been to a Shake Shack in the past and was curious to see what their food and drinks were like. Normally, I don't like to go to fast food places in the first place, but I figured I ought to be a little different since I was only visiting the area for a couple weeks.
I tried a couple of their shakes and they were alright overall, though it wasn't nearly as big as I was expecting them to be. Same goes for their chicken sandwich/burger; it was not nearly the size of the image that I usually see advertised.
Lines were long each of the times that I went, but it does help to know what you want ahead of time so the line moves along in an efficient manner.
This place was just too hyped up for me. I got the chicken shack, but I also tried some of my daughter's bacon cheeseburger. I personally thought the Chicken sandwich was just okay, I prefer Chick-fil-A. The bacon cheeseburger was pretty good, but smaller than I expected. I will say that I thought the burger patty was better than In n Out (gasp)! The kids agreed too. Fries were great, hot and crispy. I'm such a sucker for crinkle cut fries though. Reminds me of my childhood. 🙂 My husband didn't care for the mushroom burger, which was a deep fried mushroom. He said it was really greasy. He also complained that it was really small. We all agreed that the Chocolate cookies n cream shake was the bomb though. Perfect consistency to drink with a straw.
The restaurant itself was clean but we had a hell of a time trying to find seats. We ended up standing at a counter. Service was appropriately quick.
Food is fine, on par with other locations. Service, however, needs to be worked on. I have been here two times. First time, I got scolded for approaching the pick-up window with my buzzing buzzer. Second time, I was refuesd beer because it was before noon. OK? I know the laws and before noon on days that aren't Sunday, you can sell beer. I sit down and lots of other people have beers. Educate your employees on basic service, please.
Can Shake Shack ever do wrong? (Except for that horrible customer service I experienced that time in DC). Their burgers are always on point. Their staff is usually on point (except for that time in DC) and they make sure their lines are always running smoothly and efficiently. This particular Shake Shack just opened down the street from my job and the line wrapped alongside the building at around 1:30pm. My colleague and I waited in line and received our food in less than 20 mins. There was plenty of seating inside as well. The staff was monitoring the line making sure no one had any questions or concerns. Shake Shack is always a winner in my eyes.
Shake Shack, you never disappoint and I'm so happy you are now not so out of the way for me to get to you.
I love Shake Shack burgers. I don't know if it's the bun or the actual burger or the yummy Shack Sauce, but I just love them.
I finally had the opportunity to visit this new location on a Saturday late afternoon/early evening (around 6pm) after doing a little shopping over at Macy's. The line was not bad at all, but the place was definitely packed. After placing our orders, my cousin and I somehow miraculously were able to grab a booth in the back, so we were nice and comfy while waiting for our food and while we ate.
With such a convenient location (until the one inside Penn Station opens up), I'll be sure to return on many occasions and will be trying the ChickenShack because it looks delicious!!!
Stopped in here when I was visiting New York as I was told it was a must. So glad I did! Great burgers! Great shakes! Great fries! The burgers were well cooked and on a delicious soft potato bun. The shake had a good thick consistency and flavor. Will most certainly be coming back here on my next visit.
This review is based solely on a single shake I've had from this location. Specifically the chocolate Oreo shake.
The line was short and so getting to the cashier took a relatively short time. The wait for the shake wasn't all that bad either as the device buzzed within five minutes.
The shake I got which was a large, wasn't as big as I expected. In fact a large shake here is actually a medium at best as compared to other brands and shops.
Shake shack somehow ends up charging a similar price to others who's shakes are both bigger and better. Really the only place I can think of that is a similar price and doesn't taste as good is Jamba Juice.
In any case, without comparing the shake to anything, it was good. The shakes flavor was there but it was light, not thick enough for a spoon, in fact thin enough to drink with a soda straw.
Milkshakes shouldn't be that light, and with a small size I expected it to be heavier.
All in all if you want a milk shake I would go somewhere else. If you're trying to have a milk shake after a greasy burger and fries, than maybe a light shake like the one served here is a better choice than the heavier alternative.
So no if you came for a shake.
Yes if you came for a meal + shake.
One day I'll get a meal and shake combo and update this review, till that time comes, 3/5 is a fair rating.
loved the cheese crinkle fries and the burgers. also tried the blueberry pie shake but though i could see specks of blueberry in it, i couldn't taste it.
i went to eat shake shack a few weeks later on the upper east side, and found that the burgers here tasted better for some reason.
