    burgers are amazing, shakes are amazing, cheese fries are amazing. the space is not, definitely do take out, finding a seat (especially in the winter months) is near impossible during peak hour.

    Shack burger, fries, and the Fair Trade shake = a good time. The location is great since you can eat indoors or outside and the staff is quick and efficient

    Too bad today was the last day for the Oktoberfest special menu but just keep in mind: If you want to clog your arteries in the most beautiful way possible, order the Shaktoberfest Brat Burger.

    I love this Shake shack because it has the shortest line of them all. They also have indoor and outdoor seating.

    I have found the most mythical item at Shake Shack: no line. This Shack is usually crowded, but I've never seen more than a 5 min line. Great public outdoor patio.

    If people are just sitting at tables on their phones, you can ask them to get up. It's always packed and people are always waiting for tables. This isn't the place to sit and text.

    Finally got the chicken sandwich and was quite delicious, hot and crunchy, plenty of sauce and full of flavour!!! Def better than your hate-filled Chick-fil-a chicken sandwiches

    If you are going to visit a Shake Shack, this is your best bet. The line usually isn't crazy long and there's a nice courtyard area you can sit and eat at. A good option before/after visiting the Met.

    I loved the burgers and milkshakes. Fries are also a good choice. Actually wasn't that into the mushroom in the burger.

    There are Shake Shacks hand cut fries. I liked the crinkle cut thicker version they got rid of. I asked if they changes the fries, yes. I hope the other one will be back by popular demand.

    Shake Shack runs a tight ship, especially at this location. The fries are forgettable, the burgers hit the spot, and the shakes are really where it's at. Go figure.

    Best burgers I have ever had, nothing beats it. There's always a line up but it usually goes pretty fast. Don't forget to bring you dog since they have a doggy menu!

    Avoid during the weekend lunch time. Lots of groups come after museum tour and their hyper kids make such a chaotic place.

    This location doesn't usually have a long line. You do have to wait a bit for your food but it's worth it and I love the outdoor public space.

    Nicest fast food cheeseburger in town. Tasty shakes (I had strawberry) and delicious salted caramel frozen custard. Definitely recommended!

    Food and service here are fantastic like all Shake Shacks. Get takeout though - too cramped / not enough seating when it's raining or cold out.

    Awesome customer service, food's normally quick and always hot. I just hate that it's always crowded and there's hardly any seats. 😭

    Get the Shack Stack (it's a cheese burger w a stuffed mushroom- sooo much cheese), get cheese fries, and the Shackmeister brew is pretty good too. Their shakes are delicious.

    The outside seating is nice even on a chilly day because it's shielded from the wind.

    I am always thankful when my burger-eating companions suggest Shake Shack. The veggie burger is unreal -- think juicy, perfectly crisped portabello shroom hugged with melty, tangy cheese.

    Smoke Shack Burger is one not to miss. Build your burger with bacon and check out their special chocolate shake.

    One of the locations many Shake Shack fans retreat to when the craving hits & it's too cold to eat outside @ Madison Sq Park. Just sharpen your table stalking skills if you're eating in.

    Have to order a shake. You can't go to shake shack and not order a shake. Cheese fries are good too. Burgers tasty as well. Perfect meal. Skip other fast food, come here.

    The location is what makes this Shake Shack great. If there's no dining room inside, get your food to-go and devour it on a bench in nearby Central Park.

    If you are just getting a milkshake... use the C-Line (cold line) instead of waiting behind everyone getting burgers

    Shrooms burger (deep-fried mushroom in a burger) and milkshakes! Shorter queue than the Madison Square Park location.

    Decent burgers for a decent price. Keep in mind that burgers do not come with any sides. Try not to come when it's crowded or you may have to eat outside in the cold. 😵

    Not feeling a hamburger? The bird dog is excellent. Also, fast service for such a long line. Black and white shake for sure! Delish fries, too.
