These are some seriously juicy and nice burgers. I am a big fan of their signature original burger. Their fries are the crinkle cut but never have the cardboardy texture of other places and are nicely seasoned. Their daily deals and family specials feature smaller burgers which again are cooked to order fresh when you pull up. In-N-Out just haven't been the same in the last couple of years and I much preserving these Signature burgers. Meaty, Cheesy, juicy without being overwhelmed with grease just the natural fat from their signature mince. Highly recommend going, burgers are better than everything else and they have some great value deals for family dinners and lunches. read more

Every several months I get a taste for burger, fries, and chocolate shake. Somewhat difficult as a vegan. But Shake 'N Buns delivers a tasty option - with vegan ranch!! The kiosk drive through wait is dependent on the order in front of you - I waited about 15 minutes as I saw bags being passed through the window to the car. read more

Just drove thru the shake N buns, no lines no wait! I must say the quality of their food is excellent! All is very fresh and quality products, from the fresh cut onions, lettuce and tomatoes to the fresh crispy fries. Another upside is their bundle prices and combo meal deals, great value in all. It's a cute little drive up shack or compact operation but it delivers a lot of bang for the buck! I believe they have some small tables outside to enjoy the weather. Great option from the big chains, just like you'd make it at home if you had the time and ingredients, but why would you want to with shake N Buns down the street? ‍ read more

Forgot my lunch at home and I remembered they had a lunch special for $8.99 and I came to try it. The burger and fries tasted fresh and both were good. Definitely hit the spot for my lunch. There is only access for a drive through here. It took no more than 10 minutes to order and receive my food. The lady who took my order was nice. I'd come back if I'm in the area for lunch. read more

Shake ‘N Buns - Burger and fries - American Near Me - Bakersfield, California

First time here and I had the plant base buffalo chicken sandwich which was paired with the jalapeno poppers and I had a small Cola. Mohamed was working pretty hard back there not sure if he was by his self but he sure was moving like he was.. shout out to Muhammad for the tasty plant-based chicken sandwich which was my first and something that I probably will revisit Shake and buns for, cuz I'm trying to change up my meat-eating ways, the texture was really close to what I would call chicken even though it was a plant-based sandwich the bun was soft and they came together for a really good chicken sandwich the jalapeno poppers were very fresh and hot and a little spicy but they are jalapeno poppers, fries were really good even after reheating them they tasted the same ,no complaints here. Overall great visit for my first time here thinking about trying their impossible Burger on another visit. read more

The food is great, we always come here for a great burger. Takes a while for the line to move though.

This is a drive thru restaurant located in the Walgreens shopping center. It was a rough start with the ordering. We told the man over the speaker we had never been here and he seemed annoyed and promptly cut us off by saying "just order when you're ready". Leaving us feeling rushed we looked over the menu quickly and ordered a California chicken sandwich by itself and a western burger combo. The total was a little over $28. We waited maybe 8 mins for the food to be made and the woman who helped at the window was very nice and polite. We drove home about 2 miles away and immediately took photos of the food that smelled so good. The fries are amazing, crunchy and crinkle with yummy seasoning salt. The ranch was good, and was not extra charge. The California chicken sandwich was good, however the bun was soggy due to the washed lettuce. The taste was great with fresh avocado and real bacon. I could only eat half because of the very soggy bun. The western burger was very well made and the only could be he wished it was bigger lol. The ambiance was drive thru home town feel. Overall we want to try it again and maybe know what we want before we pull up to the ordering speaker. Hopefully next time will be better. read more

Unique location . So small and located in a random area so I feel like people pass it and miss it . They were offering a family meal and it was delicious. I love their fries ! There's some seating but this is more like a grab and go type of place or if you want something quick to eat for lunch this would be a good place to go to . Enough parking . Friendly staff read more

Told me it would take like 5 min and we were in a hurry and it ended up taking like 10 min

Wow. My family and I wanted to try a "new to us" place and we were not disappointed! Rolled up to the drive with our orders. Four various types of burgers Three various shakes Fries and zucchini sticks. I was a little worried about the wait time but it was just about 5 minutes is that. Shakes....mmmmm thick and perfect. Fries were a little over seasoned for my liking but still good. Zucchini was excellent. Burgers....all received with a unanimous "This burger is delicious " We will definitely be back!!!! read more

Food? Good. The charges, don't seem good. She conveniently "forgot the receipt" and the total given was different from the total charges. read more

Ya'll!!!! I have been craving a burger so fiercely, that if I wasn't fixed, I'd swear I was pregnant! After going to Frosty King (40 minute wait!), In n Out (usually love but must of been an off day), and Freddy's (Delicious!) over the last couple of weeks chasing the perfect burger, I had yet to find one that satisfied the craving. I was so tempted to go back to Freddy's since it was the best burger I've had in the last couple of weeks, but I've been wanting to try Shake N Buns since they opened. I was so skeptical after reading the reviews, most of them were complaining about wait times, which I can deal with, especially since there is a walk-up window, but I decided to give it a try anyway. When I rolled up there were about 8 cars in the drive thru so I decided to park and walk up. There was one guy sitting at the tables waiting for his order and another one walked up behind me. I waited about 3-4 minutes before being helped so I decided to ask the guy behind me if he'd tried their food before. He said the burgers were "ok" but the fries were amazing. When the lady opened the window to take my order she also answered the phone and was informed by a previous customer that her order had gotten messed up. The employee told her she could come back and they would fix it for her and the customer agreed...handled perfectly! Both customer and employee were happy. I got the double burger with fries and upgraded my drink to the banana dip crunch, got the hubby a peanut butter/ banana shake, one daughter the strawberry cheesecake swirl and the other daughter a cone. Everyone enjoyed everything, especially me! The burger was pretty damn good! I really liked the cheese. It seemed like real cheese and not a Kraft single, the pickles were great and it had a perfect amount of sauce (ketchup? Mustard?) and the guy behind me was correct...the fries were amazing! I didn't even use ketchup! All in all I ended up waiting about 20 minutes and it seemed like all 7-8 cars that were there while I was, were just about gone by the time my food was ready. I don't feel like the food was any more expensive than any other fast food right now. I will definitely come back and I'm so happy I've finally satiated my burger craving! read more

This place is a new favorite of mine for burgers and I am not a burger fan. It's pricey but it is good. I usually just get the cheeseburger and fries and vanilla milkshake. Service has always been decent. Will continue to come here read more

Oh my goodness my burger was DELICIOUS !! I ordered the California burger combo with extra pickles, it was so good and the avocado in it just made it tastier ! My husband ordered the Double classic and he was pleased we chose to eat here and ate every bite . They have a great family meal too , we'll definitely come back and order that . I have to add that the customer service here was really nice and friendly . I especially liked how they packed our food so nicely . read more

Very small burgers, under cooked and salty fries. But they do have good peanut butter shakes.

First time there. We almost didn't try it based on the reviews however, glad we gave it a try. The shakes and soft ice cream were delicious. Sorry Cold Stone I think you're gonna lose business. read more

The food is very very yummy. The fries taste exactly what they look like. The classic cheeseburger is so incredibly delicious. My boyfriend got the western combo and said the burger was good, tasted like what you'd expect a western burger to taste like (but in a good way). The strawberry milkshake was so good I finished it in the car on the way home. The service was a bit slow, but the workers very nice and attentive. Good ambiance I'd say idk. read more

So wow!! Haven't been here for a couple of years and live right down the street from it. They've really got burger making down. Super enjoyable bacon monster burger with zucchini fries I added the grilled onions and avocado and holy hell was it amazeballs. Definitely will make this a monthly habit now lol. Service was awesome had the order neatly packaged and ready before timer was up. And their little hut and outside tables and chairs give a good feeling burger joint feel ambiance. read more

First time here. We waited in a pretty slow drive thru line, hoping it was slow because food was fresh and well prepared. I ordered spicy chicken sandwich and zucchini sticks, wife ordered classic burger and fries and drink/ I also ordered a milk shake and a kids burger. Total was $40 which we both thought was high but let's wait and see about portion size and quality. What a bummer!!! This place operates quite the racket! Every thing is an extra. I asked for pickles on my chicken sandwich $.65 wow! To make it even worse they didn't even add the pickles but I'm not driving back for pickles. They charged us $.65 to remove pickles from our kids burger- wish they told us I would have took them off the kids burger and put them in my chicken sandwich. They also charged $.50 to make the milk shake 2 flavors instead of 1. Just really excessive add on fees when food is already over priced. Here's the bad part- the food was just ok at best! My chicken sandwich was just a supermarket frozen chicken patty with lettuce and tomato for $7.65 my wife's burger was about the size of a McDonald hamburger and my zucchini sticks were pretty small as well. Not a lot of flavor to any of the food! Way too many good places to eat in town to think about returning- hopefully there isn't an up charge for not coming back! Oh yeah they also up charge to use a credit or debit card! Check out the receipt and pics before you head over. Service was decent at least just wish server would have mentioned all the add on fees- while they're small they do add up and an already overpriced menu! read more

Expected to have sushi when I drove up to this location. Why did I expect that? Well, this place used to be a sushi joint. Now they are Shake N'Buns. When did this happen? Did not feel like going somewhere else so I drove up to give my order. Decided to try a cheeseburger and their fried zucchini. One vehicle was ahead of me in the drive-thru, and it did not take too long before I was at the window receiving my order. Service was pleasant as well. Arrived home to try my meal. Order was correct. Cheeseburger and fried zucchini were both hot and fresh. Nothing special about the meal. Burger was good as well as the fried zucchini. Overall, though, the experience was not as good as other Mom and Pop burger joints in town. Prices were a bit high compared to the competition especially if you compare portion size. Next time, I'll have to try their shakes. They have happy hour specials for them. read more

Woke up after a night filled with too many drinks. A cheeseburger was in order, straight away. I had never tried this place, but heard good things so I pulled my car into the queue. I drooled as I eyed the menu and decided upon a loaded cheeseburger meal with a peanut butter shake and some fried pickles. Everything I ordered was better than I imagined it would be. The burger tasted fresh - every component was as it should be. It honestly looked as perfect as a picture when I took it out of the bag. I had to cut the burger in half since I am not a lumberjack and could only eat half. (Who am I kidding..I could have probably eaten the whole thing if my stomach wasn't still serving up slight waves of queasiness from the mild hangover) The fried pickles were THEE best fried pickles to ever grace these lips. I am a big fan of pickles and have tried them almost everywhere they are offered. These dudes weren't those over-breaded mushy logs other places serve up with liquid pickle inside. Perfectly battered with a cool pickle inside like it had only been placed there 3 seconds ago. This makes me really happy. About as happy as that peanut butter milkshake. I could have handled more peanut butter but this is no fault of theirs- I am a pb monster. Anyway - the place is small but it churns out some really delicious burgers and sides. Can't wait to try the vegetarian menu! read more

30 cars at in n out, and the line will go faster then this place with 2 cars. If you have all night then go for it. The girl was sweet but never again. Not only the wait, but the burger has a baby size pattie, thin and dry. More bread than anything else. And for the price? In and Out. Ordered extra sauce......a dab. No thanx. read more

Saw this place had just recently opened and wanted to stop in and give it a try. First impressions of the place are kinda eh. The first downside was that their ice cream machine was down (I know this isn't their fault but it was a bummer) Second downside was the cold fries, after waiting about 15 minutes for my food the fries were cold which was also a bit of a bummer ( side note I did eat my food onsite so travel didn't make the fries cold) Will definitely try them again once they've adjusted more. read more

I was super excited that a new burger spot was opening near me. I haven't been to in-n-out since they screwed up my order and I swear Habit has changed their patties to some kind of cheap meat. Rolled on in for lunch before heading out to run some errands. I went with the pastrami burger and my wife got the lunch combo with a pumpkin pie shake. We also got fried pickles to share. It was just shy of 40$. One weird thing to note is that all prices that are listed are for cash, credit is an additional cost. This is the first place I have ever seen do that. Service was friendly, food came out quick. We decided to park and have lunch in the car. Thank goodness, because my burger was already slightly soggy and I had literally just gotten it 60 seconds before. Everything was a tad on the salty side. I added ketchup to the pastrami to tone it down. Flavor was good but nothing to rave about. The combo does come with a generous serving of fries. Fried pickles were good. My favorite item from the entire meal was definitely the pumpkin shake. This is one of those places I will never jump at the chance of coming to but if I was in the parking lot, craving a burger and did not want to drive anywhere else this would do. read more

My family loves it. The price isn't the cheapest, but what you get is well worth it, and the fries are amazing. Thanks, guys. Keep it up.

Says they have diet Dr Pepper but when we reached the window, they said they didn't. Had to yell into the speaker for her to hear us. Got an Oreo shake during their 50% off window (2-5) which was cool! It was delicious but all drinks were messy and sodas were overfilled. The lids leak! We ordered a double burger but they did not ask if we wanted cheese so we got it without even though the picture shows cheese... Bummer! Food was pretty good. Except the buns totally fall apart as you're eating the burgers. Spicy chicken sandwich didn't taste like much to me. Fried pickles were my favorite I've had. Ranch is also good. Fries are good! read more
