What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Steak 'n Shake generally offers tasty burgers and excellent milkshakes, often praised for their classic diner appeal and quick service. While many enjoy the shoestring fries and retro vibe, some reviewers mention thin patties, inconsistent fry quality, and a shift towards impersonal, self-service kiosks. Despite these points, the overall experience is often described as a satisfying, fast-food meal.
"I’m not a fan of self service kiosks, but the food was great and served quickly! Staff was super nice and helpful. Highly recommend!"
Morgan Tobias
"This place is a ripoff. While I didn't have to order from kiosk, I ordered ahead of time. I remember the times when you'd show up at a Steak 'n Shake and have friendly servers and it was busy and cheerful. This place was empty and impersonal. Fries were stingy with half of the bag filled. They were cold and limp, even with only driving less than a mile from our hotel to get food. Our no-bun kids meal didn't have the condiments requested. It was just meat and cheese and looked unappetizing. Junior shakes are a joke for the $2 classic and $2.60 specialty upcharge. I wish I had a better experience like I have had in the past. A lot has changed."
