It's nice that there is a Shake Shack inside the Smithsonian Air & Space terminal. It would be even nicer if I can use the app here to order as the line was very deep. Prices here are significantly more expensive than they are in other Shake Shack. They have Air & Space Museum exclusives a constellation crunch and an out of this world Shake. It did taste like the usual gelato shake.

Chicken shack, chocolate shack and water!

While visiting Steven F Air and space museum, Smithsonian , Chantilly VA, we stopped for lunch at the Shake Shack. We had their chicken shack and split a chocolate shack. It was pretty good. Nice people working counter and busing tables.

It was a pleasant surprised to see a shake shack in the air and space museum in VA. I haven't had it in so long, there's definitely a feeling of nostalgia. I got my ultimate favorite with the shake stack with the meat patty and fried portobello mushroom with Muenster cheese. It definitely has shrunken in size. But, everything was good as I remember it.

It's the best dining at the Air and Space Museum. It's also the only dining option (unless you count popcorn and similar concessions for the Imax theater, which I don't), so take that as you will. Seeing as it's the only food for your visit, be prepared for a long line around lunch hours. Best plan is to eat early or late to avoid the crowds. To the staff's credit, they took orders as quick as humanly possible and were busting their butts to get the food out to us. Considering the huge crowd, I'm amazed that they got us our food in only 10 minutes of waiting. It's Shake Shack - it's fast food and you're not going to be blown away by anything, but it will fill you up and some of it's decent enough. My Shroom Burger was okay, not bad. My son liked his Shack Burger with bacon and devoured the whole thing. The crinkle cut fries were a favorite at the whole table; I should've ordered more! Unique to the museum location is the Out of this World Shake and the Constellation Concrete Sundae. Both are good, but whatever filler was in the shake did get stuck in the straw a lot, so be ready to pop the lid and just sip. The Concrete Sundae had big chunks of crunchy candy bits. I'm partial to a milkshake, but both will satisfy a sweet tooth. Prices are what you'd expect for having a monopoly on the food in a museum in Northern Virginia, so be prepared to shell out some cash. But at the end of the day, it's not too bad.

So happy to see Shake Shack at the museum and boy was it good!!! They can get busy and be prepared for a good 10 minute wait but so worth the wait. Yum

Just what I was craving after walking around the museum. Food was super hot and delicious. Very generous with the cheese sauce on the fries. We got burgers, cheese fries and shakes and they were all fantastic. Hit the spot. You'll definitely spend a pretty penny but it was very satisfying

A literal fingernail with skin on the floor

The food would have been okay bad it not been for the LITERAL FINGERNAIL WITH SKIN AND BLOOD on the floor in the check-out line. There was also ketchup ALL OVER THE PLACE. LIKE, it couldn't get any worse.

I don't get the hype...until visiting this location inside the Udvar-Hazy Center. Here's why; 1) Service: From the moment we walked up the register, a very kind woman greeted us. She asked us our names and appropriately used them throughout ordering. My five-year-old daughter thought she was so kind that she gave her a little art piece she made and wrapped the night previous. As we dined, several staff came up to us to help us clear our table and were so kind. 2) Space: It's massive with plenty of tables to sit at. We were told the seating capacity is 500, making it the largest Shake Shack in the country. 3) Food: The menu includes burgers, a chicken sandwich, nuggets, three kinds of fries, shakes (including two developed only for this location that are space themed). My daughter loved the hot dog, cheese fries and I loved the SmokeShack burger. (It's a little small, but tasty.) 4) Drinks: They have fountain drinks, water, Honest Kids, bottled soda, etc. If you get the fountain drink, get the small cup since you get refill it as many times as you want while there. (You can't bring food or drinks into the museum.)

a line of people waiting in line

What's not to like about a clean Shake Shack at a Smithsonian. Long line went quickly and order was prepared quickly. Burgers were delicious. Great place to eat when visiting.

Alessio F.

The food was okay, it was not worth 24 bucks for a small burger, fries, and a shake. The employee working the counter was very rude and short with customers.

Stack shack, shack burger, hot dog, and concrete

The food was below average and overpriced. Go to Wendy's instead. At least you'll save money.

This location is not well suited to meet the level of foot traffic for the museum. Need to figure out how to better handle the large crowds.

Happened 2 weeks ago. Wrote email to customercare@totalwine.com that is explaining the matter but…read moredid not get response back in 2 weeks, so i am writing here now. We experienced older lady was so rude. ID CHECK acceptable 24 hour ban- I DID NOT understand So, my boyfriend and I were at the Fairfax Total Wine location, trying to buy a bottle of wine. He was the one paying, and he showed his ID. The cashier asked mine, but mine was in the car. The cashier said they need to check everyone's ID. We completely understood.When a group of people purchase, they have to present their ID. It is the store policy that applies to all states. Truly UNDERSTANDABLE. We said we'll go grab my ID from the car, and we'll be back in 2 minutes." The store was not even busy at the time; there were only two of us, and maybe there were two more people, including her. But then the lady at the counter said something that totally threw me off - she goes, "No, NOW I CAN'T SELL IT to you for 24 HOURS." She explained it was some POLICY that if anyone doesn't have their ID, EVEN IF WE GO AND GET IT, they won't sell us alcohol for a whole day. I said okay, I'll wait outside so he can get in and collect them again." But she refused to sell it to my partner and we felt like we'd been blacklisted from the store for the entire day. We asked to see the policy but no response. WHY make us wait 24 hours for something that could've been fixed in five minutes? The entire thing felt completely unnecessary. I was just standing there, totally shocked. I've never heard of any rule like that in any store! It's not like we were trying to SNEAK AROUND WITHOUT SHOWING ID. I know there are laws around alcohol sales, and stores have to be strict, but is this 24-hour thing really a Total Wine policy? Or was she just making it up because she didn't want to deal with us? I've never run into something like this before. PS: We did not argue with the group ID check policy, but 24 hour store ban.

We shop here frequently and love the selection of wines & beers. You can find varietals from all…read moreover the world and they have a great selection of accessories too, including seasonal items. I went here to get some Rosé wine for our beach trip; a case to be exact and FYI you get 10% off if you purchase a case! I knew exactly what I wanted but immediately after I entered he store, I was greeted by a lovely gentleman with a delightful British accent. He was so charming, pleasant, and attentive. He found my wine right away, got my case for me and we had a fabulous discussion about Rosé. It doesn't get any better than that! Merci beaucoup!
