The location is beautiful, but fried chicken tastes like oiled burnt. Drinks good and cheese fries good too.

I came in for Order #39402085956419584 and waited about 30 mins for a pick up order. In a nut shell the core issue is the lack of urgency from the team. I asked multiple times about my food bc I got a text saying it was ready and every time they said no. I finally got so frustrated I walked up and my food was sitting there the whole time. The worst part was the individual I asked was so confrontational. Idk her name but she was wearing multi colored glasses. Green rims and tortoise shell stems. They were over sized. Point is she needs to be retrained. Before she helped me I watched her respond to a customer rudely then proceed to talk about him after he left. So of course no shock she was upset I was frustrated after my food sat in the back for 15+ extra minutes. Chick filla would never do this. Even the location on 125 th has too tier service with employees who have a sense of urgency and care for their customers. Your team has a lot to learn.

I ordered a double SmokeShack, a chicken sandwich, and 6 pieces of chicken bites. The burger was good as usual. However, the chicken items were dry. The chicken bites were soft but very dry inside. The chicken in my sandwich was even worse, it was not only dry, but also VERY SALTY! I also don’t understand why I still have to wait even though I preordered online. That’s very annoying.

I stopped by Shake Shack Harlem recently and had a pretty solid experience overall. The location is super convenient, right on 125th Street, and it’s always buzzing with energy—which makes it feel like a true Harlem hotspot.

The food was really good. I got a ShackBurger and some crinkle-cut fries, and everything was fresh and tasty. The milkshake I had was thick, creamy, and hit the spot perfectly. You can tell the ingredients are high-quality, and it’s exactly what you’d expect from Shake Shack.

The service was friendly, though a little slow since it was busy when I went. The staff seemed nice and willing to help, but with the crowd, it took a bit longer than I expected to get my order. The dining area is decent, though I did notice it could be cleaner in spots—it’s not bad, just nothing remarkable either.

Overall, Shake Shack Harlem is a solid choice if you’re looking for a quick, tasty meal in a lively part of the city. I’d give it 4 stars because of the slight wait and the minor cleanliness issues, but the food and vibe make it worth it.

Service is good. The food is terrible. It's double the price and less tasty than other fast food options.

Anne Hathaway did not spit in my food.

I don't usually pick a pack of pickled peppers, 🫑 but I've gotta say that my single Smoke Burger 🍔, paired with a large Diet Coke, was unexpectedly pretty good.
