    It's nice that there is a Shake Shack inside the Smithsonian Air & Space terminal. It would be even nicer if I can use the app here to order as the line was very deep. Prices here are significantly more expensive than they are in other Shake Shack. They have Air & Space Museum exclusives a constellation crunch and an out of this world Shake. It did taste like the usual gelato shake.

    Chicken shack, chocolate shack and water!

    While visiting Steven F Air and space museum, Smithsonian , Chantilly VA, we stopped for lunch at the Shake Shack. We had their chicken shack and split a chocolate shack. It was pretty good. Nice people working counter and busing tables.

    It was a pleasant surprised to see a shake shack in the air and space museum in VA. I haven't had it in so long, there's definitely a feeling of nostalgia. I got my ultimate favorite with the shake stack with the meat patty and fried portobello mushroom with Muenster cheese. It definitely has shrunken in size. But, everything was good as I remember it.

    It's the best dining at the Air and Space Museum. It's also the only dining option (unless you count popcorn and similar concessions for the Imax theater, which I don't), so take that as you will. Seeing as it's the only food for your visit, be prepared for a long line around lunch hours. Best plan is to eat early or late to avoid the crowds. To the staff's credit, they took orders as quick as humanly possible and were busting their butts to get the food out to us. Considering the huge crowd, I'm amazed that they got us our food in only 10 minutes of waiting. It's Shake Shack - it's fast food and you're not going to be blown away by anything, but it will fill you up and some of it's decent enough. My Shroom Burger was okay, not bad. My son liked his Shack Burger with bacon and devoured the whole thing. The crinkle cut fries were a favorite at the whole table; I should've ordered more! Unique to the museum location is the Out of this World Shake and the Constellation Concrete Sundae. Both are good, but whatever filler was in the shake did get stuck in the straw a lot, so be ready to pop the lid and just sip. The Concrete Sundae had big chunks of crunchy candy bits. I'm partial to a milkshake, but both will satisfy a sweet tooth. Prices are what you'd expect for having a monopoly on the food in a museum in Northern Virginia, so be prepared to shell out some cash. But at the end of the day, it's not too bad.

    So happy to see Shake Shack at the museum and boy was it good!!! They can get busy and be prepared for a good 10 minute wait but so worth the wait. Yum

    Just what I was craving after walking around the museum. Food was super hot and delicious. Very generous with the cheese sauce on the fries. We got burgers, cheese fries and shakes and they were all fantastic. Hit the spot. You'll definitely spend a pretty penny but it was very satisfying

    The food would have been okay bad it not been for the LITERAL FINGERNAIL WITH SKIN AND BLOOD on the floor in the check-out line. There was also ketchup ALL OVER THE PLACE. LIKE, it couldn't get any worse.

    I don't get the hype...until visiting this location inside the Udvar-Hazy Center. Here's why; 1) Service: From the moment we walked up the register, a very kind woman greeted us. She asked us our names and appropriately used them throughout ordering. My five-year-old daughter thought she was so kind that she gave her a little art piece she made and wrapped the night previous. As we dined, several staff came up to us to help us clear our table and were so kind. 2) Space: It's massive with plenty of tables to sit at. We were told the seating capacity is 500, making it the largest Shake Shack in the country. 3) Food: The menu includes burgers, a chicken sandwich, nuggets, three kinds of fries, shakes (including two developed only for this location that are space themed). My daughter loved the hot dog, cheese fries and I loved the SmokeShack burger. (It's a little small, but tasty.) 4) Drinks: They have fountain drinks, water, Honest Kids, bottled soda, etc. If you get the fountain drink, get the small cup since you get refill it as many times as you want while there. (You can't bring food or drinks into the museum.)

    What's not to like about a clean Shake Shack at a Smithsonian. Long line went quickly and order was prepared quickly. Burgers were delicious. Great place to eat when visiting.

    The food was below average and overpriced. Go to Wendy's instead. At least you'll save money.

    This location is not well suited to meet the level of foot traffic for the museum. Need to figure out how to better handle the large crowds.

    This was our first time visiting The Burger Shack and we had a great experience! We did an online…read moreorder since we have a little one and wanted to get our food to go. They have a great selection of burgers and hot dogs with options to customize your bun, toppings, and doneness. We ordered two classic cheeseburgers on brioche rolls and split an order of the loaded fries. The food quality was great! The ingredients were fresh and much better than you would get at a chain restaurant. The loaded fries were filling and delicious too! I also appreciated that my well-done burger was juicy, but wasn't greasy. My husband and I will definitely be back the next time we're craving a quality burger and fries!

    Stumbled upon this spot after a coffee run and exploration day in the area. I immediately went to…read moreyelp and saw they had 1k reviews so thought why not give it a try. And we needed something quick as traveling with a baby equals time crunch. So let's get to it. There's a small parking lot and seating inside and out (picnic style tables). I got sliders and my significant other got a personalized burger. In addition we also got chili cheese fries and tater tots. We had to get this to go so I was quite happy with the temperature and taste when we got home. Surprisingly all the food maintained its quality and warmth on a 20 min ride. We both really enjoyed the burgers and I was surprised by the sliders. Most sliders don't fill me and I feel it's always missing something. These mini burgers were super filling and felt like I didn't have to miss eating a big burger. We both enjoyed our sides. I think my significant other heated up the fries later in the evening and said it was still pretty good. I myself reheated my one mini burger I had left and it still tasted like I just got it recently. Hoping to visit again and try more items when I can.

I came by and ordered dine-in. Got a double burger meal with chili cheese fries. All made fast and efficient. The front counter was also friendly as well. And the place was quite clean for a fast-food burger place. Anyway, the burger was smash-style and the chil-cheese added greatly to the fries. I'm not a big fan of shoestring fries but the chili and cheese made it quite delicious. Overall, for fast-food burgers, it was above-average quality and I would gladly come back again for the food. I have yet to try their custard but I will need to do so next time. I'm giving this 4 stars, but in reality this is closer to 4.5 stars.

I add to the burger everything and it and the meat spill over. I hate punny tiny burgers especially when overpriced. When I ask for water instead of the soft drink, they give me a normal sized cup, not a plastic clear thimble - thanks. Like the Pepsi brand cokes but wish there were more diet options. Price is competitive, but less than the "fashionista burgers." WiFi is functional and dependable. Place is clean and staff keeps it that way. Staff is friendly and patrons are having fun but courteous. Not a boring place. Place is open and with lots of windows, not a dark cave. Cheery and pleasant. Not a fan of their super-skinny fries; normal "Five Guys-like" fries should be the standard. Restaurant offers a free burger coupon to Veterans-on-Veterans Day. The quality of the messy burger, the WiFi, the bright clean atmosphere, the reasonable price, options for ice cream, Diet Pepsi, all keep me coming back and back. 1

Appetizer: french onion pastry puffs. A good balance of filling and pastry, comes 2 pieces per order.

Lovely dessert and at this point stuffed!! We saw on the menu that they offered a few different dishes in take home frozen tv dinner style, they're back to the 80's. We saw one large group get multiple bags to go. We decided to as well. Buy 5 get 1 free, we got chicken pot pie, Shepherd's pie, and Meatloaf.
