About Shake Shack

Shake Shack grew out of a hot dog cart that Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group ran in Manhattan’s Madison Square Park starting in 2001. The permanent stand opened in the park in 2004 and became a fast-casual chain known for griddled burgers, crinkle-cut fries and shakes.
