Heard about Shake Shack and thought I’d try it out. There are two now in the San Francisco Bay Area in Marin County and the other at Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto (the one I went to). Also another location post airport security in San Jose. Edit: that one isn’t open yet. I didn’t have a problem with the ordering kiosk since a message said that cash or other orders could be done at the register. Only there’s no register. I left my credit card at home where I left it on my desk making an online purchase, but I do have a Visa debit card. I wasn’t expecting this. I asked at pickup and was told they don’t take cash at all.
I’m familiar with ordering food or drinks on a plane where airlines no longer want to deal with cash, but a sit down restaurant?
As for the food, it’s OK but I’m not sure about the price. The fries are crispier than In-N-Out but the Shackburger seems kind of pricey for something that seems pretty comparable and frankly small. $10 for a cheeseburger and fries? At that price Red Robin has bottomless fries and I think they have a better burger.
