One of the most famous chain restaurants for burgers and shakes in the United States of America is gearing up to open their next brand new location in Toronto this week.
Shake Shack has been taking Canada by storm, opening multiple new restaurants in Toronto. Their first opened at Yonge and Dundas, but by now they already have other locations operating at Union Station and at shopping malls Yorkdale and Square One, as well as at the Castlefield location of Kitchen Hub for takeout only.
The restaurant chain serves the shakes they’re named for, as well as the smash burgers they’ve built their reputation on. They also serve chicken sandwiches, chicken bites, mushroom burgers, veggie burgers, crinkle fries and frozen custard. They’ve also become known as a fast food restaurant where you can pair your burger and fries with a little beer or wine.
Shake Shack also did a tour of Ontario in a special food truck this summer, pulling up to Ossington in Toronto, Saugeen Beach, Square One in Mississauga, Prince Edward County, Woodbine Beach, Port Carling, Lake Simcoe and The Beaches in Toronto.
Now, they’re opening their next brand new Shake Shack location in yet another new neighbourhood in Toronto, and they’re getting ready to celebrate in a big way.
For the grand opening of the new Shake Shack location, they’re giving away their signature burgers to the first 100 people in line. They’re also giving away five $50 vouchers, and rather than standing in line you can enter online to win those. Just be sure to follow Shake Shack on Instagram and tag a friend you’d share the voucher for burgers with.

The new location of Shake Shack will be bringing all their burger and shake deliciousness to a new area that previously hasn’t had access to the American chain restaurant’s eats.
The newest Shake Shack in Toronto will be opening this week at Yonge and Eglinton, giving midtown a taste of the smash burgers that the rest of the city has been loving.
That’s not the only new location that Shake Shack is looking forward to opening in Toronto before the year is up. They also have plans to open a new location of Shake Shack at Vaughan Mills this fall, and had a hiring fair to build their team during the month of September.
If you want to get in on all the opening day giveaway goodies, the newest Shake Shack in Toronto at 40 Eglinton Ave. E. will be opening on Oct. 3 at 11 a.m.
