no wai the bun is tits xp
I think I just prefer a firm bun? ya ya no pun intended. anyway I don't think it's bad just not transcendent. prob better than 5 guys but I go to 5 guys more cause I like eating peanuts while I wait.

iatee how does shake shack compare to in-n-out
― nice catch cuauhtemoc blanco niño (dayo), Wednesday, 21 December 2011 17:54 (twelve years ago) link
omg 5guys isnt in the same league as shake shack, in n out is great but its sort of a diff thing, more of an irl really good fast food burger
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Wednesday, 21 December 2011 18:11 (twelve years ago) link
I agree 5 guys isn't the same league it does have peanuts and they are in the area I am when I am hungry, more often
in-n-out is better on every level, also way cheaper.
― iatee, Wednesday, 21 December 2011 18:14 (twelve years ago) link
in n out is awesome and cheap but lacks the haut rigor of shake shack

shake shack burgers are tasty but they are so greasy that they make me feel a little ill and they are not quite delicious enough to merit that.
― bene_gesserit, Wednesday, 21 December 2011 18:26 (twelve years ago) link
most other burgers make me feel ill due to their size/amount of meat. shake shack doesn't do that. five guys is so unremarkable.
― mizzell, Wednesday, 21 December 2011 18:51 (twelve years ago) link
5guys is good but kinda gross

ya that's why you have to prep your stomach w/ a layer of peanuts

for the burger that's fried in peanut oil and the fries which are fried in peanut oil

yo bro heard you liked peanuts
shake shack rules, by far the best burger in the city
This is ridiculous unless you regard a burger only as something you get at a fast food chain (or, as you indicate, you don't really like meat). It's very good as far as that goes, and certainly better than In 'n Out, which I guess might beat it on fries, as Shake Shack's aren't that great, but even those too are pretty boring there. Yes, In 'n Out beats Five Guys on most scores.

C.K. Dexter Holland, what is the most you would pay for a really good burger

Shake Shack also has good dogs. Not quite Hot Doug's, perhaps, but more convenient.
Oh, and the alcohol offerings.

i find the opposite to be true - the shake shack burger is just not filling, but the double is gross feeling in the stomach. the ideal nyc burger for me will always be paul's.

what's the best slider in NYC
― nice catch cuauhtemoc blanco niño (dayo), Wednesday, 21 December 2011 19:00 (twelve years ago) link
What does it come with? I'm going to say $16, maybe 18 if it's really special.

Solution - the shack stack, or a burger and a dog (which is a little much). I never eat the fries.

That's not generally how the foie gras production process would be described.
― C.K. Dexter Holland, Wednesday, 21 December 2011 19:13 (twelve years ago) link
i think the prime meats burger is $18 or so, i've never tried one, but thought about buying a pre-made patty from their store for $6 the other day.
if i'm going to pay $18 for an entree it is not going to be a burger - though i've paid ~$12 for the burger at henry public which was worth it.
