So the battle of the west coast burgers...
In-n-out weighing in at about $2-3 each vs. Shake Shack weighing at about $5-9
So this is a review for Shake Shack but let me give you a little comparison...
In-n-out:
--Mouthwatering? Yes. Both burgers and fries.
--Variety? Not really, but easily customizable.
--Shakes? Good. Nothing special.
--Line? Yes. Always but eh...it comes with the price of good food.
--Price? Yes. Post grad student friendly.
Shake Shack:
--Mouthwatering? Yes. Burgers and cheese fries are yum!
--Variety? Yes. From different burgers to hot dogs to shakes to fries and even for your dog friend. Great selection for everyone!
--Shakes? Good. Small though for what I'm paying for. Nothing to die for
--Line? Very long line. But it moves VERY fast so don't be turned down
--Price? Yeah...definitely on the pricey side...borderline not sure it's worth the price?
Overall...I think I'm going to end up going to In-n-out more. But yes, I am a fan! I personally loved the Shack Stack the most. Very filling and flavorful. You're paying for a good meal. Cheese fries are also a delicious and worth. It certainly does live up to the hype, my wallet just might not survive if I come back too often.
Also, there's big screens right by the pick up area. You won't have to miss out on a single game going on ;)
