"Burger Tap & Shake, the self-explanatory casual restaurant from Passion Food Hospitality chef Jeff Tunks, has permanently closed after nine years in Foggy Bottom. A tweet from the burger joint’s account says it hopes to reopen at a new location in the future. In August, BTS announced it planned to close until the fall. It was known for creative themed burgers that blended in pork and game meats, along with other international flavors." - Tierney Plumb

"Any establishment with the word “shake” in the name had better make a good one, and Burger Tap & Shake does. There are 11 varieties of hand-spun milkshake flavors, plus several “shaketails” (boozy shakes) with names like the Cayman Mudslide and Oreo Speedwagon. Try the restaurant's signature BTS Shake, which combines Butterfingers, Twix, and Snickers." - Lisa Ruland

"This is a restaurant with a menu as straightforward as its name. Grab a seat, choose from four different types of meat (or the aptly-named Haight Asbury veggie burger), top it with anything and everything (including jalapenos or chili con carne), order a side of fries or onion rings, and wash it all down with a cold ale, cocktail, or boozy milkshake like the Kahlua-filled Oreo Speedwagon, the Firefly vodka-infused Talladega Nights, or the Jim Beam-fueled shake known as Stag Party." - Travis Mitchell

Great burger place with tons of fun options for topping your burger just the way you like it. Fries and sweet potato fries were good and generous. Kid's meal chicken tenders were generous and tastier than they looked. Prices were reasonable. Staff was friendly and the service was quick. Shakes were tasty, especially the BTS.

This place is great. Fresh burgers and sandwiches made to order. Shakes are top notch, fries and onion rings are also excellent. Great location and service. Reminds me of shake shack before they expanded. Because they care and it’s all high quality. This is a cant miss guaranteed great meal.

We just ate there and I couldn’t say I’m fully satisfied. Ordered Haight Ashbury (with falafel) and it was horribly dry. Feta as an adding is not a very good idea... and the pickled vegetables? Well, it was a tiny little bit of pickled cabbage (totally tasteless and dry). So this one I wouldn’t recommend to anybody. Notice that. The onion rings are served in a decent size but the taste wasn’t so decent, in fact they lacked it. What you should order there are sweet potato fries. Well prepared, in a huge portion will fulfill your appetite. My husband - as a carnivore - ordered a classical option with meat and grilled cheese, pickles and onion. It wasn’t bad but wasn’t good either, ordered medium and got well-done, a thing to notice. A friend of ours ordered meat burger with bacon and mushrooms, said it was okay, no regrets.

We were looking for a good burger without needing a loan! Servings were big! Burgers are good! It is a block off of the blue line and easy to get in and out. Wife was happy, they serve Dr Pepper. (She’s a pepper) coke products to drink. Lil guy got a grilled cheese and a milk shake...he made it through half of both... The lunch special was burger, fries and drink for $10. Not bad for this area!

This Burger Joint is the Bomb!!! I love the food here. I had the high thigh ground chicken 🍔 burger. It was pretty good. I added some of there spicy sauce to my last two bites to see how it would taste so now ima have to go back and tell them add some spice to my burger😋 But for real that was a good burger. I also had the Bts shake Check out the pics. Four stars in a half

Service was very good, not a long wait. Burger Is good as well, got the big daddy. It's a back and blue cheese burger, with smoked chunks of bacon on it. Really good but the reason I say four stars is it was pretty salty. Maybe they should tell u it's pretty salty.

I'm giving 5 stars. I didn't have a chance to eat, Me and Family had dessert. I had the best chocolate shake I've ever had. I was at the African American museum. My Daughter said we should stop there. We had already eaten at the cafe in the museum. Desert was our goal. Man that chocolate shake was soooo good I went back 2 days later for a chocolate peanut butter one. It was so chocolatey rich and thick

I smelled full of smok, I wish they could install better ventilation systems. I ordered "medium-well" but i felt my burger burned. Little bit overpriced.
