    I especially appreciate the potato rolls used on Shackburgers, as their softness comforted me as my mind drifted from burger deliciousness to the workload I would return to in the afternoon. Read more

    Holy shit. Good ass burgers (smokeshack) and cheesy fries. The concrete frozen custard creations are great. Chocolate hit comes in the form of the Murray Hill Malt.

    Newly open 2 wks ago: has in & outdoor seating & more for the locals than the crowded Grand Central Terminal location for tourists & commuters!

    Alright, I get the hype now. The SmokeShack is the way to go! And even if you're not a vegetarian, try the Shroom Burger! You won't be disappointed.

    There's a reason why it's a city staple for burgers. So fresh and so delicious but I skip the frozen custard.

    Tucked away in a small space, this shake shack is for folks on the go. Get in, grab grub and get out. Perfect for its surrounding clientele.

    Who doesn't like Shake Shack? I'll have a shack burger with cheese and cheese fries. Excellent every time regardless of location.

    Flaw: doors facing 3rd fill seating area w/an icy blast when opened. Signs tell people not to use them, but most are stupid or can't read. Flip upper latch to lock 1 door & sit on that side in warmth.

    This one is still serving crinkle fries opposed to other locales' fresh-cut fries, which I prefer.

    Here tues night, pretty empty, no lines around 630 and spots to sit and eat! Honestly, I think I like 5 guys better, for the value and fries!

    Good alternative to the grand central location if you don't have the luxury of waiting in long lines.

    Great food. Small seating area; people will "hang out" behind you, waiting for your seats.

    Tried their Smoke Shack, it was good. Wish I had ordered a double though, as the burgers are not very big.

    They have new self order kiosks! We’ve reached the future and it is unhealthy yet efficient!

    If ordering from the mobile app, always order for slightly before your arrival. They tend to be late

    Much more spacious and not as claustrophobic as the nearby Grand Central location.

    Standard shake shack. Too bad I’m just not in love with the liquidy consistency of the concretes.

    The best location so far, why? Because many people don't know it exists.

    Over Hyped burger restaurant. Burgers are good but not spectacular. Cheese on the Fries is cheap cheese.
