More about Shake Shack
This multimillion-dollar business began from a hot dog stand inside Madison Square Park in 2001. As its popularity grew, it received a permit to open a permanent Kiosk inside the park and soon started to add more menu items, including hamburgers, fries, and milkshakes.

- Recently, the chain added another restaurant under its banner at 131 Rivington Street. The area is usually sleepy on weekdays. However, it gets better foot traffic during the weekends when the bar-hoppers in the Lower East Side roam the neighborhood.
- The new location of the chain restaurant is on the former grounds of Schiller’s Liquor Bar. The store was in business until 2017 but had to close its shutters after the rent increase. It will be interesting to see if the trendy restaurant Shake ShackĀ can revamp the scene at the corner of Norfolk and Rivington streets as it opens from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.
