30Dec25: Back for the last spend $10 get a burger deal. Burgers just didn't have the same seasoned flavor as the first time. They had a good beefy flavor, but I swear I remember there being seasoning the first time. Someone else also left the same type of comment on 28Dec25. Took a little too long for them to find us outside, therefore our food was a little colder than when we got it quickly sitting inside. We were missing an extra patty but it was taken care of right away without any hassle. Even though I didn't print out the receipt. Inconsistency (2 out of 3 times lacking seasoning) combined with pricing, there are better options for us. Probably won't be back for a while while they get it sorted. :-( read more

I tried the newly released BBQ burger. Even though there weren't many customers, it took 25 minutes--much longer than usual. It featured an artificial-tasting BBQ sauce with a spicy kick, and I found it to be a bit too salty. It seemed like they put way too much sauce on it relative to the size of the chicken (to the point that the burger was soggy and dripping with it). The chicken patty was small, with coleslaw added, but it was not nearly enough to balance out the sauce's flavor. Whether the blame goes on the person who designed the BBQ sauce or the person who assembled the burger, I'm not sure, but for a $15 burger, it's...something. read more

Shake Shack fan here, as they've elevated the burger game and have a distinct offering from its rivals. The taste to me is like fancy backyard smash burgers with fresh ingredients, brioche bun, and a burger where you can really taste the meat. Aside from the shack burgers, the shroom burgers are surprisingly tasty as well (when you bite you get a nice cheese pull). Prices are a bit scary and always have been- but lookout for BOGO coupons online before you go. It makes meals here a bit more palatable. The Brea location does offer a nice mix of indoor and outdoor seating, but the seating and parking situation can get quite squirly during peak times- so plan accordingly. read more

I love their food!!! Cheese fries is so delicious it literally melts on your mouth. Bacon cheeseburger is so delicious!!' Omg O totally recommend to all my friends and family. It is easy to oder online and pickup. Inside is very clean and chic. Their service is awesome!!! read more

Just came thru a few minutes ago and had a few special requests for my order and the girl in front (only one with an apron) gave mad attitude while I was ordering... side eye and everything. She made it very very obvious that she was annoyed. There is a very real connection between service and taste. If the service you receive stinks, good tasting food can end up tasting bad. Probably won't come back to this location. read more

After several years in CA, I finally had the opportunity to try Shake Shack. The Brea location is impressive and spacious with indoor and outdoor seating. Service was great and ordering from a kiosk just seems to be the trend at fast food places. As for the food, my cheeseburger and fries combo was excellent. The patty was flavorful and you can taste the quality. I'll be back. read more

Had a great experience at shake shack. When you walk in you have the option to order at a tablet or walk up to the counter . Since I had a giftcard I ordered at the counter and received great service. The seating area is big and offer high top and low top tables . The food was good , my favorite item was the chicken tenders . I think I could have gone without the fries with the cheese on them . The burgers are good as well. But I would say the place is pretty pricey but worth atleast one try . read more

Good burger! I like the slight char on the sides of the burger. Get the original stuff! Great service and refills on most non alcoholic drinks. The pricing for 3 burgers, 2 fries and a drink was $50 so steep for a burger. Good and clean restaurant. read more

Where are the vegetables?? I ordered the original Shake Shack burger online and it was a solid 2/10. It tasted like SOGGY bread with a BUNCH of beef patty. Tomato was super thin, lettuce was hella dry. I asked for onions and they gave me FRIED SALTY ONIONS it just kept getting worse. Overall super soggy and greasy. First and last time here fs read more

After a run along The Tracks in Brea, where we chased our little guy on his bike for a few miles, we thought we deserved a treat. Well, that treat was a trip to the brand new Shake Shack. And it was AWESOME! We ordered a couple Shake Shack burgers which were Angus beef cheeseburgers with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun and a Veggie Shack which was a veggie burger packed with mushrooms, sweet potatoes, carrots, farro, and quinoa, and topped with American cheese, crispy onions, pickles and ShackSauce. Both were great. We added on some fries which were the crispy crinkle cut kind with a perfect amount of course salt. So good! And then of course we got a Sunset Lemonade and some shakes. I personally got a Cookies and Cream shake...it was perfection! We managed to score a table inside and I'm so glad we got to enjoy the food fresh. I really loved the whole Shake Shack experience. From the bulk of the menu providing different options, to the style of the fries, to the people that helped us, to the ridiculous shakes...all I can say is that we'll definitely be back! read more

I visited Shake Shack in Brea and absolutely loved it! The food was super fresh, and their cheese fries were amazing -- perfectly crispy and flavorful. The place was clean with a nice, welcoming environment, making it a great spot to enjoy a quick meal. Definitely one of the best Shake Shack locations I've been to! Highly recommend! read more

My daughter and her fella went for lunch and brought back food for her dad and I. It was SO good. I've seen a few of the reviews saying it's not that great but this was not our experience, we loved our food! I had a Shack Stack that was crazy good and the fries were fantastic. My daughter said her service there was great and we all really loved our meal. Only reason for the 4 stars is I was surprised when I paid my kid for our couple meals and it was like $56 which seemed steep for a couple burger meals. BUT- I will say they were smackalackin so not terrible for a once in a while treat! A+! read more

Ordering was simple through the tablets they had and also everyone here is kind and the place is clean. Also the food was amazing and hot and delicious as well. It's so cool to finally have one in Brea let alone OC as well. Service was great as well read more

My family and I went to shake shack because so many of our friends had told us to give it a try. We went after a fun movie and ordered what we thought would be good. I wasn't too hungry, so I ordered the six piece Chicken nuggets, And my family ordered the cheeseburgers, and we ordered one order of fries. We also ordered one vanilla shake to share. It was plenty of food and my family absolutely loved how the cheeseburger tasted. They said it was so fresh. I can't forget to mention the person that came and brought our order, was kind and got us extra straws, and anything we needed. The inside is busy but it's clean and it's a fun atmosphere. If you want to try another burger place. Please make sure to try this one! We will definitely go back again, and try different items on their menu. The another shake was a true highlight. It was perfect! To be honest, though, I didn't like their shake shack sauce. It was too creamy, and bland for my taste. read more

T-Mobile Tuesdays gave us a promo for a shack burger. We got it to go... tasted delicious but we did eat it 25mins after receiving it bc of the drive home and taking it Togo. I'm sure eating there would have been even better bc the buns were a little soggy! Customer service was awesome... the restaurant was busy however it was during lunch rush, cute little spot on the corner. You can eat in doors or out which ever you prefer. Would definitely come back and try something different. The Thai tea shake was delicious! And my daughters chicken burger was nice and crunchy with great flavor. Stay in over taking it to go! That's just my option. But it's always better fresh. Flavors are on point! read more

The day of the opening was mad house rightfully so so I had to come back another day. It was one beautiful Sunday afternoon and the parking lot was overflow and there were many people but I didn't want to miss this opportunity. I have tried Shake Shack at Las Vegas couple times so this was my third experience with more excitement and expectation. As soon as I stepped in the restaurant, there were four KIOSK waiting as well as two cash registers, which I thought it was great for the elders who would have a hard time with KIOSKs. At the end of the order at the KIOSK, it asked to pick a number, which we didn't see so we asked one of the staff at the cash register. She realized that the KIOSK area was running out of number stands so she said that she will find us. Sure enough, the servers were calling names to find the tables. They were all quick and friendly asking if there is anything we need. We ordered Avocado Bacon Burger and SmokeShack. The burger is exactly how I remembered, which was tasty and the buns were soft. Their crinkle fries is my favorite as it is crispy and salty just right. Next time, I would love to try their shakes and Black Truffle Burger. This branch seems more brighter and cleaner than other Shack Shake restaurants. Overall, I had a great experience and look forward to coming back soon. read more

DISASTROUS experience at this Shake Shack location. I feel so gross about how the staff handled the food and drinks back there that I feel like I'm going to vomit the food I begrudgingly ate. Was there a manager onsite at 8:30pm tonight? Workers dropped a bucket filled with shake all over the floor and workers are laughing and using their bare hands to put it back into the bucket, another employee bringing a dog in her arms into the store, and another employee pouring my drink from a bucket of lemonade sitting on a counter into my cup (no dispenser). And the burgers... my patty was not fully cooked and the burgers had one fourth of a wilted lettuce inside. Like what in the world?! And the fries were fried in glaringly old oil that they tasted so bitter. Awful experience here!!! This was at the Brea location on Sunday night, 12/28, at around 8:30pm. read more

We went shortly after they first opened and so it was a bit chaotic. I've always enjoyed their burgers more than In &Outs and crisp hotdogs.

Wanted to try this place food was subpar burgers dry and flavorless they are so cheap with the lettuce one tiny piece fries are good , but for the price I would not get the bacon cheese fries again indoor and outdoor seating very nice , super clean and the staff was friendly I need some flavor and seasoning on my burger will I try again no Red Robin so much better parking horrible read more

It's a Shake Shack If you like Shake Shack, you'll like this location. The food is good and comparable to any other Shake Shack location I've been to. Yes, the food feels overpriced, like all the other locations, but you can view the menu and prices before ordering. I thought the food was good, came out fairly quickly, and most of the employees were friendly and helpful. I came with a large group and everything was handled smoothly. Thankfully there's seating outside since the inside fills up pretty quickly (weird design inside- lots of wasted space) It's a nice option for the Downtown Brea area. read more

Food is delicious, service can be a bit slow because they're so busy. Ambiance is better than average, wish they had more indoor seating. The workers are nice and friendly & trying to keep up with the pace. You have to be patient if you're going during their peak times. read more

Shake shack is shake shack. Nothing too special that really stands out in my opinion. Service was great, was my first time trying and Tony was able to help me choose the best option based on my preferences. Burger was made very well and fries were crispy. Price isn't the best for value so do be ready to drop a few bucks for a meal. Great work environment, with workers always at work keeping themselves busy and maintaining good flow within the restaurant. read more

Shake Shack - Bacon Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Brea, California

Decades ago, i had my first shake shack by the Central Park. It was a travel destination for me, and was so happy when Shake shack came to the west coast (& Vegas). Not exactly that accessible, but didn't require a flight. And now, there's one down the street. What a win for Brea. The burgers are yummy, the bun really makes it. Can go basic with a Shackburger, or pickup one with some toppings. SmokeShack has those yummy cherry peppers. Kids alternate between the plain cheeseburger and flat top dogs. I'm personally a fan of their chicken sandwiches . Don't forget those zig zag fries, can get them plain, with cheese, or truffled up. Leave space for the shakes and malts. Can't go wrong with the classic vanilla or cookies & cream, but those specials are also legit delicious. Great job on the soft opening. Easy check in process, the line moved briskly, there were 4 kiosks and 2 cashiers to order from. The food came out within 10 minutes. Piping warm and milks shakes cold. read more

Shake Shack - Cheeseburger, Black truffle burger, Avocado Bacon chicken sandwich, & cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Brea, California

This shake shack just opened last week and after trying it at the Nashville location in May, I wanted to see if it was as good as I remembered. I ordered a regular cheeseburger and added pickles and an Avocado. While the burger was very good, it was very small for the price. In & Out is definitely more economical (in & out double double is about $4.50 compared to a cheeseburger at $7.99 at Shake shack ($9.99 with the extras.) Both burgers are very good but I cannot see myself being a regular customer at Shake Shack knowing I can get a delicious quality burger at In & Out. I suggest everyone try Shake Shack at least once, you will love their burgers but economically is it worth it? You can decide for yourself. I also had the Berry Cherry Pomegranate Lemonade which was also delicious. I'm glad to have shake shack here in Brea and I wish them the best of luck. read more

First time at shake Shack, and it did not disappoint. It was really busy for a Sunday dinner time. The have 4 kiosks to order your food, and one cashier. Super easy to order, at the kiosk but that to use the cashier because we had a gift card. We ordered two chicken sandwiches, the truffle burger and the shakburger, 3 order of fries, 3 lemonades- pomegranate, sunset lemonade, regular lemonade and a root beer float. Truffle burger-super flavorful, the fresh is really fresh, and the bun is soft. The chicken sandwiches, were a hit with my chick fil a loving kids. The chicken was crispy and juicy, the bread was soft, and the pickles were fresh. I had the shakburger, single patty, but super flavorful. You can definitely taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients. I'm not usually a fan of the crinkle fry, but these were actually pretty good. The lemonades were also all very refreshing, best part, you can get refills. Usually restaurants charge for refills with specialty lemonades. The root beer float but the spot too. Super friendly staff, Everyone was helpful and while dining, there must have been at least two employees who came by and asked us if we needed anything and if we were enjoying the food. Next time, we will definitely try the shakes. Only complaint was we had a gift card, that was given to us while attending a CSULB men's basketball game. We didn't know the balance since we were gifted the card, during the half time contest. Well, turned out that the card kept reading error. It was embarrassing, the managers tried helping us, but unfortunately, since we didn't know the balance (never used), we ended having to pay for the entire bill. It was pricey, $87 for 4 entrees, 3 fries, and 4 drinks. I will say, the quality of the food is definitely worth it, and the customer service is also great, just be prepared to pay for that quality. read more

Wife and I have been eyeing this new location since it opened a while back. Not the best. Both out burgers were cold as well as the fries. We sent the fries back and had them replaced with fresh hot ones. I got the lemonade which was good. My wife got a diet coke which was flat. We also ordered the Chocolate-Strawberry Shake. What we got was just chocolate. Sent that back and had it replaced as well. We've been to Shake Shack at Crystal Cove many times and it's always been great. This is an entirely new menu and honestly the old menu was way better. read more

Got 2 burnt burgers. Went in around 8-9pm. Asked if they can remake one, as we came to eat on my mom's lunch break. She was in a rush to eat so she had to eat the burnt one, they had an off ish response. Gave a hard time to remake. Finally remade it and I took it to go. Disappointing. read more

I tried shake shack years ago and loved the chicken sandwich. I was excited to have it near my home however every single time I have visited the service is horrible. The kiosks slow the process down. Never enough cashiers. The wait is way too long for "fast food". To boot I had a mushroom burger last visit with a chocolate shake after waiting forever only have food poisoning. Terrible experience. The quality of the food is not as it used to be when they first opened in LA. read more

I was in the area for CAVA this week, and was surprised to see Shake Shack finally open. It was extremely busy, but I was able to order online (while waiting for my order from CAVA). There are a few deals right now, so make sure to look up what the deals are before placing your order. 1 x Black Truffle Burger (Single) $11.49 100% Angus burger topped with Gruyere cheese and black truffle sauce made with real black truffle oil and our crispy sweet onions on a toasted potato bun. 1 x Cheeseburger (Single) $7.99 Angus beef patty with cheese and your choice of toppings on a toasted potato bun. Despite how busy Shake Shack Brea was, my order was ready when it was promised it would be ready. I cannot say the same for their next door neighbor. Between both burgers, I did enjoy the Black Truffle Burger the most, though I do wish that the patty was thicker, and I was not about to pay more just for a double (thin) patty. I also wish that the toasted potato bun was a bit more toasted, as it felt more lightly toasted. ------- I stopped by again on Saturday for their Happy Hour BOGO shakes, and I cannot say that the orders were "on time." They were extremely busy, and only 2 kiosks worked (out of 4). Online ordering was also unavailable so it took a really long time just to wait to place an order at the kiosk (because only the deals work through in-app, online, or kiosk ordering). I waited 30+ minutes for 2 shakes, while others also waited either about the same or longer for their burgers and such. Maybe the hype will die down and the wait will not be that long in a few months. Even though they had Seasonal shakes, I would pass on ordering shakes again in the future. My family and I agree that both Farmer Boys and Chick-Fil-A has far better tasting shakes than Shake Shack. They must have blended the shakes so well that we could not even see a sign of strawberry, besides the light pink color to the shake. 1x Apple Cider Donut Shake (regular) $6.99 Apple cider donut frozen custard topped with whipped cream and cinnamon donut crunch. 1x Strawberry Shake (regular) $6.49 Real strawberry hand spun with our house-made vanilla frozen custard There is a ketchup dispenser where one can get their own ketchup, water, and etc. I was surprised to see a worker (probably) ask if the customer needed anything else when they delivered their meal and then the worker proceeded to help dispense ketchup into the condiment cup and then bring it back to the customer. What a lazy customer, get up and grab your own ketchup, which many others had done (and they were the table closest situated to the ketchup/condiment table). The workers are busy enough. Overall, they have different burgers than other restaurants but like most SoCal people, I would rather just get a burger from In-N-Out, or even from Red Robin. They are extremely busy and all the workers are hard at work - and yet they are also very courteous and attentive. Five stars to all the employees, especially ones who have to "deliver" your meal to you as they shout your number and walk through the entire restaurant trying to find you... Due to the holidays, parking is a huge pain. Good luck trying to find parking nearby! read more

I'm so happy to hear that Shake Shack opened a location in Brea closer to where I live. I came here on a Friday evening with my wife to take advantage of their Holiday Burger Blitz promotion and we were both glad we came. It was very easy to order our food at the kiosk before grabbing a seat. We placed our table number on our table and the servers brought out our whole order and even went through the trouble to bring us more condiments. The black truffle burger and avocado burger were both delicious. We also got the cheese fries and a small fountain drink with free refills. The servers kept checking in on us to make sure we were taken care of. We really enjoyed our meal and will definitely be coming back to try their other burgers! read more

I've been wanting to try shake shack for a while and today I decided to go for the first time. I ordered the shake stack and it was absolutely delicious. I asked for some cherry peppers on the side, and they have a unique flavorful taste not too spicy. I like spicy but they were fine for the burger. The cheese they use for the portobello mushroom is WOW it just gave it such an amazing taste to the burger. I will say that the patty was seasoned well and you do get that meat flavor but not too meaty which I loved! I thought it was fantastic. It's pretty clean and well organized and for the most part I had a good time eating there. The service was fast and good. read more

I don't usually do reviews anymore, but this experience left a really bad taste in my mouth. My order was refused even though my order was ready to pick up. I ended up having to ask for a refund through their corporate customer service. Nothing else was offered to compensate for my inconvenience. While I've had Shake Shack before and the taste was always good, their customer service just blows. I don't think I'm going ever going to eat at any of their establishments moving forward. There's plenty of other options even nearby that taste just as good, cheaper, and most importantly, have actual customer service. Honestly, if I could give 0 stars, I would in a heartbeat. read more
