The search is over, 'folks! We found a winner!! I finally made it to shake shack, for the first time in my life! (Surprising, right?) This totally lived up to the hype. I've heard so many great things about Shake Shake, but only came today because, hey, they expanded their menu after several years! Seriously, the best burger place I've been to in NY for a LONG TIME. I was searching for awhile now. I love the fact that they added vegetarian options! - Shroom Burger: delicious. DELICIOUS. I don't even like mushrooms. Generally, avoid them because they are never cooked right, and I just don't like them. However, they season the mushroom very well.The texture of the burger was splendid, it had the perfect amount of crispiness. The cheese adds a gooey, chewy, yummy texture. YUM. - Cheese Fries: BETTER THAN NATHAN'S!! I was surprised that it was so good! This is a step up to your average burger place fries. They are really good. The cheese isn't that generic cheese sauce...it actually tastes like cheese?! It had flavor!! And the fries itself were really tasty. - Vanilla milkshake: YES. This milkshake was just fantastic. Not overly sweet. Not melted, not too milky. Actually had a strong ice cream flavor without tasting like I was drinking ice cream. It had the perfect balance of creamy and smooth. This will probably be my new burger place! read more

Out with the family. Food was fresh I love there chicken sandwich with extra pickles crinkle french fries are the freaking best read more

Great hamburger great service and really clean place. We were hanging out downtown Brooklyn and we were in the mood for a nice meal. Pricing is really good and quantity is the right size highly recommend if you were by the Barclays center read more

Never knew that this place existed ! I was in the area and hungry for burgers and sincerely thought that Shake Shack is only located in Manhattan... I walked in and there is a portable menu I took while waiting in line. They had a guy walk around asking people if they had any questions in regards to the menu. I was welcomed nicely by the register and she took my order accurately. Come time to pick up my order, the guy chatted me up. I was expecting a " have a nice day/evening ". Instead he treated me like an old buddy from years back. The wait time was relatively short too. Great customer service all around. The employees working the kitchen were quite diligent in handling their tasks. Everyone that works there, actually WORK. I did not see people slacking around at all. read more

Quick service and nice staff. Has outdoor seating as well as inside . The food was really delicious . The vanilla shake is amazing ! read more

See all

Im a freakin sucker fr this place and any shake shack for that matter. Had my first one in 2011 and since then have been hooked. Just had the Smoke Stack - burgers are juicywhile crispy at the same time. Bacon and cherry peppers didnt take over. My usual go to is the Shack Stack - beef and a deep fried mushroom filled with CHEESE Its just so expensive :( read more

3.5 to 4 stars. Fair value and good quality save the day here again. Speed of getting me out the door and lack of seating are the downsides. All was well, when I finally received my 4.30 burger that was quality and tasty. I happened to hit it during a lull before a Barclay's even, so I shouldn't really bitch about a 10min + wait time for freshly made burger of this quality. Go on an "off day". I will be back. read more

My favorite thing to come from the Barclay Center plunking itself in the heart of Downtown BK is the opening of another Shake Shack. Yes, we needed another one. Yes, their burgers are consistently spectacular. Yes, they have a house wine. And more cheese. Sans huge events, you can easily get a seat and enjoy a burger (I prefer a single patty) of Angus beef without hormones and antibiotics and quality ingredients. The service is a little slow even at times when there are no events, but you can see right into the kitchen and it's always kept clean. read more

Shake Shack Flatbush - Barclays Ctr - Single patty burger with cheese fries and an extra side if their delicious cheese - Burgers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Order at the counter and get a flashing buzzer, find a table and then the buzzer will go off. A quick process even during dinner time. However, I'd say that the food tastes better with a wait at MSQ park though. The bun was soft, tomato and lettuce fresh, but the meat just wasn't how I remember it. It was moist but thin/flat. The fries were undercooked and the cheese congealed. When in bk I'll prob stick to other burger joints. read more

If you don't love shake shack we can't be friends. Shake shack is so much better than "In N Out". It can not even be put up for a competition. I had the Shack burger and the bun is really soft and the meat is juicy. My friend had the chicken sandwich and the meat is super crispy and juicy. I like the chicken sandwich a bit more than the shack burger. The fries were super crispy. I also got the ginger lemonade but that tasted really weird and if your not crazy about ginger I don't recommend this because the flavor is strong. This is like a fancier fast food place basically. Its quick but the quality is good. This location is really big and its not the like the other shake shacks' with crazy waits. read more

Shake Shack Flatbush - Barclays Ctr - Shack burger, Chicken sandwich, fries - Burgers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Who doesn't love shake shack? This was my first time at this location, conveniently located next to Atlantic terminal and Barclays Center. It's not as big as some other shake shacks I've been to, but there was enough seating for everyone that was there. However, I had to wait about 5-10 minutes to get a seat, which is usually the amount of time you have to wait to get your food anyway. Surprisingly, the line to order food was not out the door which was great. Otherwise, shake shack is known to have some delicious burgers. I always get the shackburger and fries with NO SALT, which is a great option if you do not like salty foods. read more

I like this shake shack. Not as crowded as other locations, interesting concrete combinations, staff was overall friendly. The cons are it seems to run slower than other shake shacks, maybe they need to start getting used to it since its fairly slow. Also the concrete flavors are kinda meh but I'm sure people might have different tastes. Bathrooms are surprisingly clean. Good job guys. read more

their burgers are amazeballs. i was pleasantly surprised how good shake shack is. i had their double hamburger and the toppings (pickles, onions and tomatos) were great. i asked for well done and they followed thru. the patties are not thick so a double is not too overwhelming to eat. the crinkle fries were crispy and made to order fresh. i was really happy with the fries because most places are usually just mediocre. shake shack's fries were that good. shake shack doesnt offer table service so you order then sit down just as you would in a fast food joint. it's just this place aint a mc donalds. after u order, they give u a vibrating pager to let u know your order is ready. i waited roughly 5 mins for my order at 10:30pm. i cant wait to try the shakes nextttt read more

I saw a feature on the Shack sauce once on a foodie show but honestly have never heard of this franchise. Thankfully the catchy name stuck in my head. During a back and forth and sometimes heated exchange on our inability to agree on where to eat in Brooklyn we stumbled upon of all places: The Shake Shack. It was like the skies opened up and let the rays of light flood in! Burgers and Fries - who doesn't agree with that! We were able to walk right up to the counter on a busy Sunday afternoon and place our order. The ordering process was as painful as our conversation outside with the cashier not understanding what we were saying and vice versa. In the end she did screw things up after our credit card was charged but a manager assured me the credit would be reflected in a few days. Our burgers came out perfectly medium rare, with fresh and colorful toppings and of course that Shack Sauce. That stuff is crack! I immediately got another cup to drown my fries in. The fries, although obviously frozen were probably the best darn fast food fries I've ever had. The only gripe I had was the potato roll was so soft for a burger so juicy. A nice toasted bun would be the only improvement I could suggest. During our meal several employees came around to ask if we needed anything - napkins, water, help navigating the subway. Everyone was pleasant and seemed genuine in their interest to please you. One young male stuck out to us the most as he chatted with us for several minutes and explained the difference between local/express trains - and even gave us a free burger for the journey! I don't know when or if I will ever encounter another Shake Shack again in this lifetime but one thing is for sure - we'll be on the lookout for one! read more

Shake shack never disappoints - unless it's the Grand Central location which serves those disappointing skinny fries! This location has a short wait and plenty of sitting area which is wonderful in this weather. Needless to say the burgers were on par and hit the spot. Not a personal fan of the Shacago Dog, but that's likely due to the fact that I am not a hot dog person. Otherwise the toppings and presentation are on par! read more

Need i say more i haven't been to shake shack in a while and decided to go there today everything was on point the Shack Burger was made to perfection everything looked fresh and taste so good. I enjoyed every bite. read more

Shake Shack Flatbush - Barclays Ctr - Shack burger and Shack Stack - Burgers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

West Coast, best coast. Unless it's about Shake Shack. Beats In-N-Out, in my opinion, hands down. Never understood the hype around Thousand Island dressing. Yuck! Shake Shack for the win! read more

I've been to many ShakeShacks throughout NYC, I even recall the original location. This newest addition deserves a review. 1. Because they are the first to bring back the crinkle fries 2. They got my order wrong for my two children and nicely offered to make them fresh off the grill new cheeseburgers. The is always well prepared and very delicious, especially the crinkle cut fries with cheese. read more

First time coming to Shake Shack! I'm from the Bay Area and I came up here with my girlfriend for the first time and she took me to Shake Shack and I loved it! Don't get me wrong I love my In-n-Out but I mean flying 5 hours, and not getting to eat for like 5'more hours makes a burger taste like God. Any way, I got the Shack Stack and received an overflowing burger. As soon as I bit into it the melted cheese and crumbed portobello bombarded me with flavor! The cheese was a mixture and was very balanced and super savory. Of course soon after the cheese and hamburger meat enveloped my mouth with beef and more melted goodness. lastly I compliment the Potato bun, not saying I know a lot about burgers I'm just trying to tell you about my experience. Amazing, potato buns all the way! Definitely returning if I get the chance! read more

Service and cleanliness of this Shake Schack restaurant need to be improved. I also got the wrong order once. I think these issues just need extra attention and focus from the manager and staff. By the way, I am not happy giving them 2 stars. I love their burgers and black / white shakes but I am hoping they will improve so I can continue coming here. read more

If I compare it to McDonalds, it will get 6 stars, but if I judge it by the buzz this place create, I think that 3 stars will be enough. The burger is ok, the hot dog is ok, the service is ok, so for a place that makes burgers it is ok. I read that someone here compared shack shack to the CA in and out burgers location. I think that shack shack are way better. They found the way to be little better than the average fast food places. I will return, since I don't think you can judge a place based on one visit, and I hope the burgers will be better next time. read more

My bf and I had our eyes set on eating here after the Nets game. Since we were up by 30+ we left early. Best idea because the line wasn't too long yet! I ordered a single shackburger and my bf got the double with bacon. We shared an order or cheese fries. They were delicious! This is my second time having Shake Shack but the first time was a different location. It's hard to find a place to sit so make sure to stand by a booth or table and wait for the people to finish. read more

Looking behind the counter and food stations are VERY messy. The condiments area is also messy and not maintained. This is not a good look with a location across from the Barclay Center. read more

My husband had the pleasure of getting his burger served here! This place has very polite hosts! Especially Crystal! Thank you guys for being such nice people! Great manners and good food makes the day so much brighter!!! Love this location!!!! People here really care about their customers read more

Went in for some burgers and shakes. Had a funny taste to them. Something was off...wouldn't recommend.

I never ever leave reviews but I'm legit having one of the worst days possible and Crystal really made me smile with how positive, kind, and efficient she is being with every single customer. read more

As expected, food wasn't bad for a fast food but certainly wasn't good for all the hype that shake shack gets. environment and service were ehh. With so many great bistros/bars/hamburger joints, shake shack is absolutely not my first stop. read more

I guess i expected more from Shake Shack. This is my second time to this located and both times the meat on my burger was practically raw. Maybe ill try a differant location read more

Went here before islander game, efficiently and quickly served. Fucking good burgher and shake, but I think I will throw it up the way the islanders playing. Unbelievable come back; islander 3 panthers 2 Food is now good in belly. Cheers! read more

Although the line was just about out the door. The 2 lines went really quick. The food came out in like less than 10 minutes. It's really busy in here because it's right across the street from the Barclays center and the Atlantic terminal mall and train station. read more

I have nothing to say about Shake Shack that hasn't already been said. They serve tasty burgers and amazing shakes and custards. The line here is usually not very long as long as there isn't an event at Barclay's. They have just enough seating inside and extra seating outside on the sidewalk. Note that the two top seats by the window are packed so tight together, you may not be able to get out after you've eaten your burger. The prices are standard for NYC, tables clean, and service is quick. The mushroom burger haunts my dreams and I always wish I had more stomach space so I could try more of their custard flavors. That is all. read more

I really like this location. It is across from Barclays and I can grab a bite before heading in. When I arrived, the line to order was out the door but orders were taken quickly. The person who took my order was very patient as he answered my questions about alternatives and substitutes. The place had a lot of seating and people did not linger around too long. There was one employee that stood out. He was positive and full of energy. You told us he would wipe down our table and did so with enthusiasm. He also found an extra chair for us. read more

My first Shake Shack experience. I want to really give it 5 stars, but quality and price are 4 stars. The place is busy, and the service was good! I just wasnt blown away by the chicken sandwich. The bun was mushy, and the chicken was a bit overdone. But!! The fries are bomb!!! Dont get me wrong, I would give them another try on my next visit. I am the kind that rarely complains, so I sucked it up and ate it. Great location! I did come with a group of people, and they really enjoyed it. read more

I came back and the speed of service is quite improved. The burgers are fantastic and the cashier prevented me from overpaying when I quoted my order. I have not been here during a huge rush though. read more

My first time ever making it into a SS. Yes, I knw it's the Mecca of fast food burgers but I just don't believe in waiting on line for 20+ mins for a burger (sorry, not even for a SS burger). Fortunately the place wasn't too crowded so I made my way in and started scanning the menu board and decided on the shack burger and fries, then I saw that they had beer and wine and ordered a beer... It's cute but I don't think I'm gonna have wine at Shake shack. OK, so the food was really good but I was upset that the cashier was so deep in her shakeshackism, being unreasonably bubbly and animated, that she left out one order of fries. By the time I realized it, the line was just too long and I absolutely wouldn't be willing to wait for them to place that order :(. I really liked the aesthetics of the place; it has a modern-urban-industrial look, very Brooklynesk. Sure I wud come again, if it's not too crowded. read more

I was really impressed on how functional this group is. It is never easy before an Islanders game for this team and last night was one of the better experiences I had. My gf and I had game planned a bit before we came in. She went and ordered our food and I scoured the place looking for a table. Luckily I was able to find one rather quickly. What was more impressive was how quick the food came out. I thought my burger was ok (a bit too well done), and my gf enjoyed hers. The cheese fries were some of the best I had and I thought the team there was absolutely amazing and super friendly. That is such a rare thing to happen in this city and they were amazing! I will definitely be back and look forward to the experience. read more

First time and omg! 1. Great view you are across from Barclays center. 2. Food was so perfect it literally hit the spot. I got a shake shack burger, hot dog and fries. In my opinion I like this better than five guys. Can't wait to come back again when it's another cheat night for me. read more

Shake Shack Flatbush - Barclays Ctr - Burgers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

your standard shake shack. everything tastes exactly like you want it to (hot and delicious). i tried the roadside burger here which is a cheeseburger topped with bacon caramelized onions, but it was a lot sweeter than expected, so word of caution on that. brooklyn pie o' mys are also available here - a cup o' vanilla custard that has a slice of seasonal pie smashed into it from four and twenty blackbirds. we had the peach one, and it wasn't that great - no peach to be found honestly. just crust, which is okay, but it's peach season ! i went to the farmers market yesterday to get my peach fix instead, and now all is right in the world again (phew!). read more
