Upper West Side Shake Shack Opens Monday (or Sooner!)

From Shake Shack: "Our official opening day for the Upper West Side Shake Shack is this Monday, 10/20. Shack’s hours on the Upper West Side will be in flux for the first few weeks (11:00 AM - 9:00 PM), but once the Shack is really shakin’, it will be open seven days a week from 11 AM - 11 PM. Our site will keep tabs on any hour changes. Depending on how practice sessions go, Shack may open it's doors to the neighborhood a little sooner than Monday. But the official (read: definite) opening is Monday at 11:00 AM." A few pictures of the UWS Shake Shack in progress here.

"First Pull Up, Then Pull Down - Eatery on the Go"

Dear Gothamist,

I'm a restaurateur interested in obtaining advertisting/media package quotes and terms from your organization. My partner and I have witnessed firsthand the excellent coverage afforded other establishments. In an age where advertising has become so insidious as to blur the line between editorial and advertisement it's nice to see a more obvious approach employed. It's not our aim to perpetuate this heinous erosion of culture and media.

That said, let me tell you about our new venture. We intend to convert the recent public pay toilet kiosks into small snack stands. They doubtless will fail in their current usage and believe that re-purposing will ensure more revenue to the city and better serve the public.

While the details of the menu have yet to be finalized, you can be assured that we will serve a variety of tiny cupcakes, gourmet style mini burgers just dripping with down home bacon fat, and perhaps even bubble tea for the traditionalists.

We think it will be a smashing success with the right positioning.

We look forward to working with you.

Proprietors,

The Museum Cafe used to be there-far less trendy that this crap. Enjoy the IBS Upper West Siders

Whoa! Look out for this guy! He's edgy!

I want a Crunch-stellation concrete, so I will see if it's open this weekend. Also, around the corner is my favorite store cat-- Panther, at the locksmith on Amsterdam between 78th and 79th!
