The holy Shake Shack in Madison Square Park, adored for its succulent burgers, righteous shakes and hellish lines, will soon expand into multiple locations. Owner Danny Meyer has signed a lease for a branch at 366 Columbus Avenue (at 77th Street), the former home of New Orleans import Jacques-Imo's. The new location will be entirely indoors, enabling delicate Upper Wide Siders to do their time on line out of the elements.
And two Shake Shack locations are believed to be in the works at the new Citi Field stadium in Queens; Meyer has said that “the fascination of doing something in a sports stadium jazzes me.” Rumors also point to a future Shake Shack inside Union Square park, where Meyer’s nearby Union Square Café was a key factor in the area’s transformation from down at heel to obscenely overpriced.

Shake Shack jumps the shark
You've got to love Shake Shack. It's like having the taste of a frozen hamburger at three times the prize.

I guess I'm a Shake Shack heretic but I don't get it. Every time I've visited I've had to wait on very long lines for a souped up version of a Big Mac that's usually undercooked. Maybe the fourth time will be the charm.
G-d forbid UWS should have to stand outside, or not be able to do something due to the weather. G-d forbid that rich white people shouldn't be able to get whatever they want, whenever they want.
Agreed with the non-pro-shake shackers
This website has to get a grip and stop fellating this place.
It's just a really good burger. I think many people are expecting more due to the hype, but in the end it is just a burger. To compare it to a frozen patty or big mac really is taking the backlash a bit too far if you ask me.
Jacques-Imos is closed??!? SO SAD!!!
"Shake Shack jumps the shark"
It's funny that creating a possibly more convenient outlet in a less hip neighborhood makes Shake Shack [i]less[/i] appealing for some. Um, wait for the food and then see? Or is it not about the food?
aw fuck, bbcode
multiple shake shacks and no mchale's, fuck this universe.
a shake shack at citifield? you'll miss 3 innings waiting for a burger.
you'll miss 3 innings waiting for a burger that's no better than average. furthermore, i would imagine you'll pay more than what you would at another shake shack location, seeing as how food prices are always grossly inflated at ballparks.
