Beginning as a hot dog cart in New York City’s Madison Square Park, Shake Shack was created by Danny Meyer, Founder and CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group and best‑selling author of Setting the Table. Shack fans lined up daily, making the cart a resounding success and donating all proceeds back to the park beautification efforts. A permanent stand was eventually built – and the rest is Shack history!

With our roots in fine dining and giving back to the community, we’re committed to high quality food served with a high level of hospitality. Our team members enjoy a positive work environment that is deeply committed to the philosophy that we “Stand for Something Good.”
