shake-shack-philly

Last week, we got all excited over discovering that Shake Shack was expanding in Philly–throwing down on a second location in University City and bringing joy and cheeseburgers to Drexel and all its neighbors.

But now we’ve just gotten word that the UCity expansion was only half the story.

Shake Shack is indeed coming to University City. Danny Meyer’s burger chain will be an anchor tenant of Drexel’s Chestnut Square complex, under construction on the 3200 block of Chestnut. It is the second Shake Shack for Philadelphia, succeeding the always crowded location at 20th and Sansom.

Burgers should be pumping out of the kitchen by the time Drexel rolls back to school in the fall of 2013.

Is Shake Shack Opening In University City?

Posted by Jason Sheehan on January 23rd, 2013

shake-shack-burger-bundle

That’s what the rumor-mill is churning out today. According to the Insider, a Drexel campus location for Shake Shack seems most likely–which will no doubt set off a battle between Drexel and Penn burger fanatics. But honestly, who cares? Though the best possible location would be directly next door to my house, there really is no bad place for a 2nd Shake Shack. Every additional location just means more tasty cheeseburgers in Philly–a development I am fully in favor of.

UPDATE: It’s confirmed, Shake Shack is going in at 32nd and Chestnut.

The sandwich is a turducken sandwich is first smothered in cranberry spread, then layered with apple-sausage stuffing and stuffed with creole seasoned slices of turkey, duck and chicken and topped off with brown gravy and hashbrowns. The pumpkin pie shake (which we don’t recommend consuming at the same time you tackle the Turducken sandwich) is vanilla ice cream blended with fresh pumpkin pie and topped with ginger bread cookies. The sandwich is $10 and the shake is $5.
