"The new Veggie Shack burger embraces vegetables rather than imitating meat: the patty is made from mushrooms, sweet potatoes, carrots, farro, and quinoa and contains distinct chunks so you can taste the crunch of carrot and the chew of mushroom. It arrives on the chain’s pillowy potato roll, slathered with the signature Shack Sauce (pickle brine, mayo, ketchup, and mustard) and topped with American cheese, pickle medallions, and crispy fried onions—resulting in a juicy, flavorful, and texturally satisfying sandwich. One reviewer noted an unusually gooey three-slice cheese melt and found the sandwich surprisingly hefty and more filling than a normal burger despite lacking meat protein; they also preferred it to the existing breaded, cheese-filled mushroom option for its more well-rounded flavor. Available nationally via app ordering with an in-store rollout planned for May 5, the item is cited as a hopeful example of a vegetarian fast-food offering that celebrates vegetables instead of trying to mimic beef." - ByLi Goldstein
"A national burger chain that offers dog-friendly snacks at some locations, enabling patrons to treat their pets while dining out." - ByAli Francis
"What began as a Madison Square Park hot‑dog stand in 2001 grew into a publicly traded, globally expanded chain of roughly 250 locations and a multibillion‑dollar business known for elevated burger‑and‑fries stadium fare; it helped popularize the 'fine‑casual' category by combining counter service with carefully sourced, higher‑quality ingredients and inspired many similar hybrid dining concepts." - ByAli Francis
