Shake Shack is a fast-casual restaurant chain that originated in the United States. It was founded by Danny Meyer in 2004 as a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park, New York City. The success of the cart led to the opening of the first permanent Shake Shack location in 2004, also in Madison Square Park.

Today, Shake Shack has grown into a global brand with over 300 locations worldwide. The company's headquarters is located in New York City. Shake Shack's main products are high-quality burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, frozen custard, and milkshakes.
