    Walked right in to a small quaint spot in Warwick, RI. No gimmick, bs or anything extra, just a nice local feel from a family owned shop since the 60s, with some delicious dogs! The service from the family was excellent, and the fresh and delish weiner + fries matched. I've been on a hotdog kick lately, and this did the job! Check it out!

    Coffee milk. Simply delicious
    Kim S.

    After eating ourselves full around Warwick, my friend insisted we eat a wiener all the way from here. It's a very simple place. Maybe four tables? The wieners come with mustard, onions and meat sauce. This is a no nonsense place. Get your Werner's, eat them, and get the heck out! The coffee milk was very good. It's a great place for a quick bite.

    Three all the way, light onion

    This place is ALL original. Some of the best wieners around, and old school lunch counter atmosphere to match. I prefer less onions, but either way their meat sauce is amazing and the buns are always perfectly soft and delicious. Don't forget the classic coffee milk. We come every summer when visiting family in RI!

    Cawfee milk, wieners all the way, fries and cheese curds

    Good local place for wieners. The cheese curds were perfect and fries were crispy. Friendly service. I like that there's still bar stools and not just tables.

    While I can't attest to the wieners, as I don't eat meat, this place was a winner! My friends did enjoy the famous wieners but the friendly staff and other patrons set it apart. We stopped in after seeing this place in a local paper and were not disappointed. Everyone welcomed us and gave other local recommendations. The fries, grilled cheese and fried pickles that I did have were great as well! Would definitely recommend. It's definitely a no frills kinda place but that just added to the charm.

    We got the weiner combo and 2 weiners "all the way". Service was fast and friendly. Loved the staff and expediency. The restaurant has a few tables and counter seating. Relatively quiet, and would definitely eat in if we had the time.

I got the Big Ol' Burger and it was so good. Cooked perfectly, the special sauce was delicious and as you can probably tell from the photo, the fries were exactly what I was looking for. Everything tastes really fresh here. It has that farm-to-table quality, but in a relaxed, laid-back (but still really pretty) setting. We came for lunch and I loved that they had brunch options too. We didn't get any adult beverages but I was very tempted by the entire drink menu, so next time! Our service was also outstanding. Really everything was A+. Definitely a local spot that I need to remember to go to more often.

She showed me to my table, brought a carafe of water, and welcomed me in. I was quickly welcomed by Sergio, my server, who shared the special and the soup of the day. Once I ordered my soda I took in the ambiance of the bar, new lights, and the rest of the restaurant. It's not a large building but they make every inch count. Now, the reason you're reading this review- THE FOOD. I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich with a Caesar Salad. The chicken (photo below) was perfectly cooked, topped with hot honey, slaw, pickles, and ranch then placed on a soft brioche bun. The meal was reasonably priced as well at $33 which included tip. I will absolutely be back to the Shanty next time I'm in town.

I visited this location in the past and was not impressed. Today was a different experience, came in during the buy one get one offer. The pricing has gone up so much. The prices have increased and the size of the items have decreased. The shake for example. Between the cup being filled and the extra. Seemed like it was anywhere between 12-16 oz's. The size of the burger also looks a little slimmer. Had a bacon cheeseburger as pictured, bacon was not good quality. The food was delicious with the offer. Not sure about dropping $40 on burgers without a beer offer. The fries were nice and crispy, but again the order seemed a little smaller than before. It's a hit or miss. If you're in the area give it a try. But I would not go out of my way. The service was definitely an attentive improvement and friendly. I would say visit with the kids during family night.

I remember 5 - 10 years ago there weren't that many, so when you saw one you didn't mind that there was a 20 minute line to order. Now, they seem to be all over the place and the old school quality control just isn't there. At one time, I'd have put Shake Shack ahead of In n Out burger in terms of the actual taste. Perfectly caramelized, browned smash patties seasoned nicely giving them a crunchy but juicy salty pop. Now ... Maybe 1 out of every 4 burgers I get here is good. The rest are a greasy mess. All you can taste is the drippy grease which saturates the bottom bun and oozes from the patties. After 3 bites, your stomach starts to do somersaults and you feel full and gross. No more can you taste the seasoning or salty special burger sauce ... it's just nasty grease. Fries are consistently average here. It's hard to fuck up bagged crinkle fries ... but the fries are as much as most burgers elsewhere and pretty unremarkable. (In fairness, In n Out has this issue as well, despite being fresher.) The Shakes here are pretty rough compared to Chic Filet next door. It's a sugary milk shake which also makes your stomach do cartwheels. If the line wasn't so long at Chic Filet, I'd go there for their amazing milk shakes. For $7-$8 fucking bucks at Shake Shack, a milk shake is way overpriced and not great. Overall, it's no mystery why, even during peak times, this place has no line at all while Chic Filet's line stretches around the store. I can honestly say this is the worst Shake Shack I've been to from a quality control aspect. It's just never consistent and they have about a 25% track record at making a good burger. All other times, it's a greasy mess with no taste.

    I want to start this off by saying that we love Shake Shack in general and usually really enjoy the…read morefood and experience. Unfortunately, this location seems to have mostly very young employees working without enough visible management or supervision, and it really impacts the customer experience. This is the second time we've waited an unreasonable amount of time for something simple that we already ordered and paid for, this time being a side of Shake Sauce. We stood at the front waiting because there was no employee anywhere to be seen, and the few employees who were around completely ignored us. There was also a pregnant woman standing there waiting 5 to 10 minutes just to be acknowledged because items from her order were missing as well. If no one is going to consistently stay at the front, the restaurant should at least have a bell, buzzer, or some system so customers are not left standing there wondering what to do. What's most frustrating is that these were issues that should have been handled correctly from the beginning, and when employees finally did help, the attitude and facial expressions were unprofessional and unwelcoming. The food is still good, which is why this is disappointing. This location seems like it would really benefit from stronger management presence, better customer service training, and experienced managers who can properly guide and support newer or younger employees.
