This seems to be a standard Shake Shack but the staff was really friendly and polite. They greeted us as we walked in and when we picked up our food the lady was super nice... wish I got her name for a shout out. Definitely recommend the Shack Stack (burger with cheese stuffed mushroom). Be careful though because there's a lot of cheese with every bite. Nice spot for a group and the bathroom are clean. Like the fact that there are several spots to sit and crowd watch. read more

Ah, I hate to start the year off with a not so good review. I put in a very simple online order of a burger and two fries. I was to arrive at 8:19pm-8:24. One burger shouldn't take 20+ minutes to make. Additionally, the station is out of condiments and the restaurant itself is a bit filthy. I was expecting more from this location as I thought it was a pretty nice area. read more

Shake Shack Navy Yard - This was all the ketchup I could muster - Fast Food Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

While upon first impression, the self operating kiosks seem like a good idea. But it can also mean for long wait times despite the simplicity of an order. For example, if you only want a shake or a fountain soda your order will still be in a queue of all orders placed for pick-up, delivery and for dine-in. So if you arrive and there isn't much of a line, it's still probably good to be mindful that the lack of crowd may not be indicative of the wait time. When I placed an order here today, not only was it a 25 minute wait for a cheeseburger and fries, but they slathered tons of Shake Shack sauce all over the burger despite indicating via the kiosk options that I would like it on the side. Since it took so long to get the order and all workers seemed to be designated to kitchen duties, I felt like I was going to fare better just wiping everything off. Luckily, it wasn't an issue where there were any allergies but considering that was the only customization it was clear that attention to detail wasn't great. Otherwise, a pretty standard Shake Shack experience which I find to be usually fairly average but satisfying should a burger craving hit. read more

During "Burger Month," Shake Shack is giving a free Shack Burger (with the code: BURGERMONTH) if you spend $10. Today, I ordered a Carolina BBQ burger with Fried Pickles. I proceeded to wolf down the two burgers in minutes. The meat was juicy! The pickles were perfectly fried! And the burgers filled me up without any hiccups! The Navy Yard Shake Shake is clean and the staff members are friendly. I'm definitely going back! read more

I've heard a lot about Shake Shack over the years and finally gave them a try since this location was close to a work event. Actually, it was two tries. In a word...meh. I wouldn't avoid Shake Shack but wouldn't go out my way to visit based on my experiences. On Visit 1, I tried the chicken bites, crinkle fries, and a vanilla shake since it's Shake Shack. The shake was darn good as expected. The chicken bites were fine, but very inconsistent sizes. Most were much smaller than similar offerings at competitor locations. The fries were decent but not noteworthy. Visit 2 was a bacon cheeseburger, fries again, and a fountain drink. The burger was a disappointment, very average patty and bun. I appreciated the ordering kiosks and folks behind the counter were happy to engage. My food came out quickly and hot. Perhaps I had listened to too much hype but I wasn't impressed by my visits (except tge shake) considering the price point Both meals were over $20 (with a 15% tip). To me, that was pretty expensive for meals that really didn't seem to be any better than what I might get at larger fast food chains. read more

After ice cream at the Kilwins did not work out since it was huge ice chunks, I got as close as I could to ice cream with a cookies and cream shake around the Dr John cornder. A shake makes up half of the bidness's name, and I was not in the market for a dilapidated shanty, so it seemed like a good move since most shake shack locations are solid. There was a long line for a tablet to order at, since they had no humans who could take an order. There were a lot of people waiting for their order. I joined the large crowd of people waiting for their order. Service was very slow for a shake, it is not like they needed to go out back and kill something to make the shake, since there should have been no meat in the old gal. When my shake came out 20 minutes later it was warm. Shakes are not supposed to come out warm, unless you are in Tina Belcher's Hell-Jail. I suspect they never called up my number when it was first made despite me standing right there in front of the pick up zone. Or this store really does not know how to make shakes. A warm shake is undrinkable. I should have saved the huge ice chunks from Kilwins ice cream and then I could have combined the failures of two places into a gross abomination of flavours that was still not the correct temperature for a tasty treat right before heading into the Nats stadium. Navy Yard basically seems like a giant tourist trap (they snared me, obviously) and the low quality of even somewhat respectable chains like the shack proves it. Do better. read more

We regularly eat at this location and have overall had a decent experience dining in and taking out. The knock off on the stars has to do with a few times where we had to wait 10 min for an online order. I couldn't even get the attention of the staff to pick up, because they were so busy making the food. It's usually understaffed so I feel bad for the workers. Today was different though - I was only 1 of 3 customers in the restaurant when I came in to pick out up. The staff was great! They greeted me and were helpful with verifying my order. The other star knock off is for the grilled cheese sandwich that was literally a half sandwich that was slightly burnt; it was smaller than my hand. For $6, I'd expect a lot more. I'm bummed they no longer offer the fried avocado sandwich! We'll probably return but stick with our usual sandwiches. read more

I genuinely don't understand the hype. Shake Shack charges luxury prices for what feels like a very average burger having an identity crisis. The patty was thin, the bun was soggy, and the whole thing slid apart like it wanted to escape responsibility. The shake was fine, but "fine" shouldn't cost this much. Overall, it feels like you're paying for branding and vibes instead of flavor. If you're hungry, you'll eat it. If you're expecting magic, lower your expectations... a lot. The fries were an absolute joke--limp, undercooked, and completely forgettable. If you're going to charge these prices, at least pretend to care. I wouldn't spend my money on shake shack ever again read more

I honestly haven't been having a good experience at this location the last few orders. Today, the cheese for the fries was cold and looks like this in the photo. Not melted. The fries did not taste good at all. Very bland. Normally they have a hint of sat or some kind of flavor. The burger bread was well done. Idk today was not a good day for shake shack. A couple orders ago, there was a piece of a very hot pepper in my burger and in my child's burger. He coughed so badly after accidentally eating it. Then, it was in mine too. The customer service wasn't good today either. When I walked in, I had to get someone's attention just to pick up my to go order. Then, I said "thank you." No response. "Have a nice day." No response. Customer service isn't great. read more

I haven't been to a Shake Shack in a while so stopped in to try the seasonal black truffle mushroom burger. It was delicious. I also had forgotten how awesome the crinkle fries are. Ordering was super easy from the kiosk and the orders came out quickly. The employees we met were really nice. The customer behind us at the kiosk was a first time visitor and they patiently walked him through all of the burger options. The reason I hadn't been to a Shake Shack in a while is because the one closest to where we live is Dupont Circle and it is always super busy and it's small. I liked the more spacious and chiller vibe of the Navy Yard location so will be visiting again soon. read more

I just had the biggest BULLSHIT experience EVER!!! I placed an order around 8:50 PM and I didn't receive my order for TWO HOURS!!! It took me asking twice about the status of my order only to realize they lost my order! I had to show them proof that I ordered just to finally get my food! Yes, they were extremely busy! However, it should not take TWO HOURS to have an order ready! Many other people who ordered after me got their food before I did! I am never eating at Shake Shack again! Someone needs to be held accountable for this unacceptable service! read more

2 stars for service. Staff was helpful and seemed to genuinely care about customer experience. The store is dirty. Feels damp, sticky and over all just nasty. Needs to close for a few days for a ceiling to floor deep clean. Inside the kitchen area looked terrible. Splattered food , cheese sauce containers. Floors nasty. Soda area . Self order pos system needs wiped down. Oh and bathrooms need an attendant just for bathrooms. So yeah don't bother. Felt sick trying to take bites of food because of the filth.

I had a great experience at Shake Shack today! I placed my order when I arrived (there were 2 stations) and my food was ready in under 10 mins! The fries were fresh and crispy with just a tad too much salt but I was able to just shake some off. I was pleasantly surprised that my burger wasn't over cooked and still juicy. Avocado and all the ingredients were also fresh. The draft root beer was good, loved having that as an option instead of regular fountain soda. I spent $20 which was more than what I'd like for a fast food / fast casual place but overall it was really good. Place was clean and the manager even asked how my food was. read more

Came here for a quick dinner before attending a DC United game which there happened to also be a Nationals game the same evening so needless to say it was busy everywhere. However, the staff at this Shake Shack were wonderful! From the cashier to the delivery of our food, they both provided great customer service! Not a long wait at all. Great job ladies! Our food was hot and delicious! Ambiance was good because tables were clean and no trash overflowing as it could sometimes happen during busy times. read more

The food is fine it's the service that needs work, and after seeing the reviews on this specific store; yall need to make a change. The closing shift workers on 7/31/25 are extremely rude and did not acknowledge myself and another woman when we walked in the store. I was there to pick up my order and they were understandably busy putting to go orders together; however they looked right at us and still did not say anything, not even a "hello, we will be right with you". This location needs some hospitality training apparently. read more

Great service at this location. Never a long wait and my food is always hot. This is my lunch go to.

Waited an hour for my food as did everyone else in the restaurant. Absolutely no update what so ever. No first come first serve. Absolutely no organization or no urgency to get orders out what so ever. Finally got my food and my burger was in pieces. Wish I could give 0 stars. read more

The service in this place is consistent.... not great. Disorganized, slow, and inaccurate. We office nearby and it's always the same. Every visit, someone just leaves it seems .. If I didn't love the shakes, I would just go a few block further to swizzler.... which is consistently great. read more

Shake Shack Navy Yard - Double Shack Burger with Crinkle - Fast Food Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I was very disappointed with my burger. We actually ordered 3 and someone picked them up. I did not ask for my burger to be well done. And well done does not mean burnt and crunch and crispy. I wish I had gone with just the Mushroom burger. The chicken bites were really greasy and the tasted like the oil needs to be changed. They left an aftertaste and my throat felt weird. I wanted this to be so different, but it is what it is. Why is it necessary to overcook and burn the food. Give people options and temperatures. I'm sure no will ask for burnt, crunchy, and crispy. read more

I love some shake shack. The burgers, the shakes, the fries, all the options, everything. When you go to Shake Shack, you know you're not sitting down for a gourmet meal, but that's what makes it so great. You come to Shake Shack for that super heavy filling meal that's puts you in that food coma. This trip was no exception. I showed up hangry and ready to destroy. 2 SmokeShack burgers with fries was my conquest, and I did it fail. The bacon, cheese, and burger patty, was amaaaaazing. The fries complimented that burger like no other. Definitely add cheese to your fries if your contemplating. Normally I probably wouldn't write a review for Shake Shack since there are so many locations, but I decided to write this review because they staff were so friendly. They didn't judge me when I salivated over all the greasy food, they made suggestions, and they were super nice. The staff made this experience even better. I will definitely be back. read more

I stopped by for lunch and I'm really only writing this review to share a snippet of my life experience. Don't read on unless you're bored and looking for actual advice on this specific business location. It's cherry blossom season and the other day I went to a festival where there was a different Shake Shack location. Since it was uber busy, I shouldn't have been surprised that the Cherry Blossom Shake was sold out. Since then, that created a void I needed to fill and planned to make it to another Shake Shack another day to get the shake. Here comes today when I walked to this location only to find that the Cherry Blossom Shake was no longer being sold. Devastating. Instead what they were selling was the Game of Thrones Dragonglass Shake that is served in a plastic cup specifically designed for Shake sShack and GoT. Season 8 of GoT just released yesterday so it was fitting. The shake was good, but I probably won't get it again just because they're super packed with calories. Honestly, I know these gimmicks are just marketing and hype, but sometimes they can be fun and tasty! Oh well, I'll just have to wait until next year! read more

I'm a huge fan of Shake Shack so when Wise Guys were out of slices for the day, my friends and I went over to Shake Shack (naturally). This was my first visit to this particular location. With the lockdown and shelter-in-place orders, we didn't know what to expect. When we arrived, we found a lot of signs plastered all over the store windows but none of them gave instructions on how to place an order. We saw staff inside so we knew the store was opened. We eventually found a set of doors that were unlocked so we stepped inside. As we went to the cash register, a lady hurried over and started yelling in my face to step back outside. I stopped in my tracks and explained that the door was unlocked and we didn't know where to go because there were no signs. Instead of explaining the lineup/ordering system, she continued to yell at me about ignoring the rope outside. As we stepped back outside, we found new arrivals who were just as confused about where to order. After we placed our orders (a second lady took our order, not the rude one), we theorized that the second lady who was taking orders at the door had stepped away. Instead of putting a sign up indicating where the line starts, she had left the door unattended. This was the first time I've felt shaken up (pun unintended) and even a little embarrassed because someone at a fast food joint yelled at me. I understand how stressful the pandemic and physical distancing orders are, but I don't think that's the way a fast food restaurant should be treating its customers especially during these times. read more

We have been so impressed at how nice people are here in DC until we visited your Navy Yard location on 3/23/2022 at 6:00. Because everybody has been so friendly, the rudeness of the cashier kind of hit us in the face. Please apologize to her for whatever we (me, my wife and two kids) did to put her in a bad mood, as we have no idea why we made her work so hard. Yes, we were a bit indecisive, but I am not sure we were so different than any other customer with kids. I truly apologize if we inconvienced her on figuring out order read more

I've come here quite a few times as it's the closest place to get a milkshake. This location is OK on service, although sometimes your wait time can be super lengthy, even if you placed a mobile order. If it is a Nats game day, the line WILL be long and it will be loud, so just be prepared for that when the Nats are in season. The burgers are standard Shake Shack burgers. I've generally always found them to be a little greasy, and I agree with others that they are smaller than they could be. The fries are pretty bland crinkle-cut, and the "cheese" on the cheese fries seems to be something from a concession stand. The shakes are good, though--as long as they aren't out of ice cream and shakes, like they were tonight. Yes, I said I went to Shake Shack and they said they were out of shakes. What is the world coming to? Anyway, they keep it pretty clean inside, which is nice, especially given that this location gets a lot of traffic. It will continue to be my place for a quick bite nearby, but give me Burger Tap & Shake over Shake Shack any day. read more

I was thrilled that I had a short line minutes before the game was starting. Fries were $6, which was reasonable for a ballpark. The employee was nice. The fries were adequate. I was happy the condiments were filled (which probably isn't Shake Shack's responsibility). I will add this into my rotation with Ben's Chili Bowl when we are at the ballpark. The refillable drink is worth the $10 price on a hot day. read more

My god - I still don't know what they put in these things but it is soooo good. These burgers are absolutely addicting and delicious to the max. Every component down to the sauce accentuates the flavor of the burger to bring out its peak. Fries are OK but it's all about the burger here. The staff was great as well and as I was traveling with a handicapped person they were very gracious in helping us. Every location I have visited always has the same consistency. Something I truly appreciate in today's tough staffing and stressful world. #stevensleavin read more
