The 'Bacon Cheeseburger ' with fries was pretty good. The three star rating comes from the fact that I got a cheeseburger even though I have cheeseburgers(haha). It didn't matter in the moment because I planned on pouring peanut butter on the burger, the cashier told me that they no longer offered peanut butter which made me sad. Without the peanut butter on my cheeseburger, that lead to the 3 star rating. The fries on the other hand was very good! I never go for crinkle fries, but Shake Shack made them so good! The crunch and seasoning was on point and I loved every second of the fries. I would definitely come back and instead get a chicken sandwich instead of a bacon cheeseburger. Edit: July 8, 2021 4/5 stars After my cousins and I went on a shopping spree, we came to the closest food place near us. I'm the only vegan among us, so right as we're crossing the street (but still looking both ways) I'm googling 'Shake Shack vegan', haha, and they have a veggie burger! a.k.a The Veggie Shack. I could have gotten the lettuce wrap, but never tried it before, so I was being pessimistic that the wrap would leave me unsatisfied, so I stayed with the bun that has dairy. I never tried a gluten-free bun either, and I wasn't looking to experiment. We were all madd hungry, so I stuck to what I know. I can only speak on my food and I was surprised. The patty is made of black beans, brown rice, and roasted beets which all tasted really good. It's something I would get again. The bun was sogggyy tho, haha. Falling apart and getting all mushy. Maybe it was the butter that they use to toast the buns. The avocado being warm was a real pleasure. Usually avocado slices are always cold, throwing off the temperature of the burger as a whole, but warm avocado on a burger is where it's at! Fries are crinkled and something I ate up. Not hellllaa seasoned, but still seasoned enough for it to be very tasty. I saved the rest of my fries for home and ate them with my mustard sauce from Wingstop. I really appreciate the portion size. Just right to leave you full and content. It reminds me of this old place called 'Rock House Sliders', may they R.I.P. I usually always drink water when ordering out, but I tried their Piña Punch and it wasn't bad. I'm not a fan of lemonade, but it's something different. I'm not mad at it. Sweet and refreshing for the heat my city plagues me with. But, yes. Pretty good veggie meal and I enjoyed everything I ordered! :)
