In April 2021, the New York institution opened its first location in the Portland area. Started as a hot dog cart two decades ago as an integral part of Madison Square Park’s revitalization, Shake Shack graduated to its iconic building just a few years later. Now offering their iconic hamburgers, crinkle cut fries, frozen custard, and so much more, their 275 locations worldwide are a testament to their immense popularity and deliciousness of their food.
Their menu items emphasize fresh ingredients – like 100% all-natural Angus beef without hormones or antibiotics. The one notable exception is their crinkle cut fries, which are actually frozen. When Shake Shack first opened, they didn’t have the space to make fresh, hand-cut fries, so they had to go with frozen. When they finally had the space to make fresh fries, they did—and their followers hated them. Eventually, they brought back the frozen fries after working with their supplier to remove preservatives and artificial ingredients.
