Up until now, Shake Shack fans had to journey out to Pinecrest or Hopkins Airport to scratch that ShackBurger or Chick’n Shack itch. But come Thursday, June 20th at 11 a.m, urban burger, fries and shake lovers can simply walk or ride over to the new downtown digs on East Sixth Street by Euclid Avenue (601 Euclid Ave.).

The 4,055-square-foot store will feature all the Shack classics, including the ShackBurger, crinkle-cut fries and hand-spun shakes, plus a selection of frozen custard concretes made in collaboration with local purveyors.

“Downtown Cleveland is a bustling retail destination to bring our modern roadside burger stand,” states Andrew McCaughan, VP of Development at Shake Shack. “We’re thrilled to open our second Cleveland area location and provide the local community a fun place for to gather with family and friends.”
