Popped in here to grab breakfast for the Family based off of my Son's suggestion. It's a small…read moreplace located not far from downtown Plainfield. It's a no frills location with the typical "Chicken Shack" look. The staff handled multiple orders well without making mistakes. I didn't see them write anything down, they just took peoples complex orders & kept it moving. The food was very good. I watched them make it, & they are NOT shy when it comes to butter. I LOVE THAT! I am not one of those people that will ever say "hold the butter," or "light on the butter." They make everything in butter, lol....& I support that. They are Halal, so there is no pork on the menu, so if you're looking for bacon, you can only get Turkey bacon. We had the French toast w/Beef sausage. Waffle w/Beef sausage, & two orders of Chicken & Waffles. All of the food was good, the chicken are chicken tenders, definitely gotta deduct a star for that, Yes, just for that. Why? Cause their setup they could easily do the "chicken shack" style chicken on the waffle. That would be epic! The food was good though, so no complaints. Syrup is a little weak though. Could be a bit sweeter. French Toast w/Beef Sausage: A Waffle w/Beef Sausage: A Chicken & Waffle: B-

So the first time i came here, I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. I was expecting like an actual…read moregrilled chicken breast with mayo, lettuce, tomato, thats not what i was given but it turned out to be delicious. The waffle is pretty good and their lemon pepper wings are aaamazing!! The only thing i do not like is their grilled chicken salad. Its just saucy chicken on top of lettuce and it was so hot the lettuce was soggy. I would only come back for breakfast or wings. Inside is small but has some seating areas, and a bar like table top. The service takes long so I would advise calling first.

Great option when stopping at this NJT rest stop. The only reason that shake shack gets a 4 vs a 5…read moreis that there is no interaction with anyone. You order at the kiosk and then wait for your # to be called. I wish they even did things like here's a mini sample of this while you're waiting. I got a vanilla milkshake with whipped cream and it was soooooo good. Perfect to keep me well hydrated on the rest of my road trip.

Meat wasn't good quality (thin and greasy/oily/fatty) and not cooked properly, chicken was not tasty (dry and lacked flavor), their signature sauce was gross - tasted like mayo with a color dye. Fries were the only okay part of it. Not worth $25 sorry.

Came here for coffee and noticed they had empanadas. I tried the beef and they were good. I'm…read morenot familiar with Colombian empanadas but they were good Crispy outer layer however the filling came up a little bland. I found myself leaning on the hot sauce they gave me to add a little extra kick. Overall a decent empanada. The coffee was an expresso and it was strong. Just how I like it. Staff was nice and location was clean. Everything was priced appropriately too.

The table next to me had been empty for about 40 minutes and the table was still dirty with used dishes and empty glasses. The people who later sat down there had to bring the dirty dishes to the front counter. $80 for 3 Sandwiches and 4 lemonades, Menus did not have prices on them. My sandwich comes with fries the menus say, when it was brought out it didn't have fries. If you want good food and a good experience DO NOT COME HERE.

It's hard to find good vegan food locally without the anxiety of being uncertain about its vegan status in Monmouth county, but this place has earned my trust.

A Little Kindness Goes a Long Way…read more Tonight, I experienced one of those small acts of kindness that stays with you. I went through the drive-thru planning to use a $100 gift card I had received from a fundraising night at my daughter's school. For some reason, the gift card wouldn't work, so the worker called the manager over to help. I didn't get her name, but I'm sure Shake Shack corporate can identify the manager who was working tonight, Friday, August 21st around 11 PM. She explained that the gift card was a donation gift card and had expired. I honestly thought that was the end of it. But instead of simply turning me away, she told me she would comp one of my meals--and then, to my complete surprise, she went back and brought me a brand-new $100 gift card. I'm not going to lie, I'm tearing up as I write this. It wasn't just about the $100. It was about her kindness. She didn't have to do any of that. She could have simply said, "I'm sorry, it's expired." But she chose compassion. She chose to help. In a world that can sometimes feel so harsh, tonight she reminded me that there is still so much goodness and kindness in people. To the beautiful manager working at Shake Shack tonight--thank you. You may not realize it, but your kindness touched my heart more than you know. You really made my world a little brighter tonight.

The roasted chicken is soft, moist and delicious. Serving staff is friendly and helpful. Well lighted dining area and nice decor. My only concern is parking. There's a few parking spaces in-front of this restaurant, just be careful of incoming vehicles on Smith Street, a main busy street. The Supermarket next to it doesn't allow parking for restaurant diners. Towing is strictly enforced.
