They really know how to treat a family. We really enjoyed our lunch at The Shake Shack last Wednesday. My wife & Madre & I were all in town visiting from Puebla City, Mexico. This was my first time back in Illinois since 2016. We were treated like family and extend our gratitude to all of the staff and owners!

Stopped there after our Jr high softball girls finished a tournament game over the weekend. The staff was very friendly & took care of all the players & coaches. Each of the ice cream options we ordered was really good. Great place, a lot of options, & exceptional service!!

This is THE Shake Shack, not the Shake Shack restaurant chain.

Emily and I made plans to visit Analytical Brewing based on a shirt we saw at Evergreen Farm Brewing. While looking for things to do in Lexington, I found that there isn’t much due to it being a small town. BUT, there is an ice cream shack right next to the brewery and that was the perfect spot to get some food before putting down a few beers.

We pulled up and walked around to the ordering window outside. There was a lady in front of us which gave us time to figure out what we wanted. Emily settled on a philly steak sandwich and I got the buffalow chicken sandwich. We took a seat at one of the tables and waited for our food. There is an indoor seating area and I did go check it out since we had time to kill. I took a glance in and liked what I saw. It had a very diner-esque feel inside. I didn’t do more than stick my head in and look around due to the only people inside were some teenage girls.

It didn’t take too long for the food to come out. Emily and I took our food and headed next door to try and eat it inside the brewery. The bartender said it was a-okay to eat inside. Funny enough, once we sat down, we say a sign on the table that said you can order from your table and it’ll either be brought over from The Shake Shack or you can go grab it real quick.

We were both starving and we dug in real quick (while sipping our beers, but that post comes next). The buffalo chicken sandwich was delicious! It wasn’t too hot or too spicy, which was a bit of a bummer but the flavor and heavy butter flavor in the bun was just what I needed. Emily said her philly steak (minus onions) was possibly the best thing she’s ever had… either because she was famished or it was just that good.

So, the food is great! At least what we had. How was their ice cream offerings? Funnily, we didn’t get any. The idea sounded good after we were done at the brewery but in reality… we were just ready to head home and unwind from everything. The desire was there at least! I have no doubt that if their ice cream is as good as their food, you are in for a treat. If I go back and get their ice cream, I will add a comment in here on how it was. Also, I didn’t really get any good photos here so it would be nice to go back and get some better ones.

Parking: Plenty of public parking, either in the lot next door or the lot across the street.

My first visit was on May 5th. The food was delicious. Our waitress was absolutely the BEST. Her name is Keira ( might be spelled wrong). She took care of all the tables and the counter and phone. She greeted us with a smile and the whole time we were there she kept that smile on. She was very patient with my granddaughter and other kids that were there. My granddaughter complimented her one her necklace. As my granddaughter was sitting outside eating her ice cream after our lunch Keira went out and gave my granddaughter her necklace and helped her put it on. I made sure to get her name. This young lady should be very proud of herself for the polite, respectful and caring service she gives to her customers. Thank you again Keira for making my first experience there an amazing one.
