About Us

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.

Our team members enjoy a positive work environment that is deeply committed to the philosophy that we "Stand for Something Good. xhyhwjd "
