From past bad experiences with burgers and product quality issues in many different airport restaurants, I normally don't order burgers because they are always cold, dry, tasteless, and downright horrible. But this burger from Shake Shack was surprisingly very good. I ordered from the self-serving kiosk and the wait time for my order was about 5 minutes. The entire restaurant including the counter area, dining area, and even the condiments station was all very clean and inviting. I ordered the Double Shack Burger made with two smashed angus beef patties, American cheese, and topped with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and Shack Sauce on a toasted potato bun, an order of fries and a 20 oz bottled drink for $24.79. A little step, but of course, all menu items are à la carte, and this is airport dining. The bun was fresh soft, and lightly toasted. The burger patties were nicely smashed, hot, juicy, the cheese melted and all the condiments were fresh, cool, and bright. This burger was prepared with care and assembled beautifully to create the perfect burger. The crinkle cut fries were perfectly cooked, lightly salted, and golden brown. This was by far the BEST airport burger and fries I have ever eaten. Date of Visit: Saturday 05-03-26 Shake Shack | Newark Liberty International Airport | Terminal A

We grabbed a couple of sandwiches from Jersey Mikes to snack on for the trip home, we weren't the only ones but persistent and early arrival paid off after about 30 minutes we had our meals and were set for the flight. I had the Roast beef and I'm telling you they loaded my regular sub up. They're were plenty of space to sit and watch h folks hustling through. Service was good I gotta say they are some sandwich masters they never stopped making then while we were there. Certainly added some comfort to our flight home.

Don't ask me why the reviews for Jersey Mikes in Terminal A of Newark Airport are so low…read more Jersey Mike's are good everywhere at every location I have been to. They were completely lovely at Newark Airport. I was very very happy to have my Philadelphia Cheesesteak from Jersey Mike's. It was a fine sandwich. It was actual food - which is not always what you get when you eat at the airport. My trip home had been rancid up to that point - and turned good from Jersey Mike's on afterward. It could be that Jersey Yelpers are fussy. I would not rule that out. I am often blown away by the sheer hostility of Yelp Reviews I read coming out of New York City. However, there may be a sense in which both me and the Newark Airport Jersey Mike Haters have some basis for agreement. * * * The most common complaint here is that people don't like the freshness of the ingredients. I had a hot sub - a cheesesteak. If vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes or peppers are not as fresh as they could be - that would be a non-issue on a cheesesteak or a meatball sub that doesn't get lettuce, tomatoes or peppers. So if you want to be super-cautious - order from the hot food side of the menu. * * * The other issue is serving time or hostility from servers. I have encountered such issues at Newark Airport although not from this particular Jersey Mikes. The one time i was not served because i was Jewish (this was a pretty clear case) was at a food service establishment at Newark Airport. That "can" be a local management issue ... if say a shift supervisor or a set of people working on the same shift all see eye to eye on certain issues. So some of the stories in other reviews about people of a certain ethnicity being treated badly "might" be true. BUT Those issues change when the shift supervisor changes or when a shift team changes. Turnover at a fast food place at an airport is sky high. The same people are not likely to be around two years later or one year later or even six months later. If I was a customer experience supervisor at Jersey Mike's (or more probably, a customer experience supervisor at the hospitality industry subcontractor that runs the various brand name restaurants at Newark Airport) I would look into such Yelp reviews to see if anything is going on. However, as a customer, I would not be worried about such experiences replicating.

Major Safety Violation - Customers Locked Inside…read more My two friends and I had a deeply unsettling experience at this location on Friday, 3/20. We were dining 30 minutes before the 9:00 PM closing time when the staff locked the front doors. We did not realize we were trapped until we tried to leave at 9:02 PM and found the doors dead-locked. All three employees had moved to the back of the restaurant, leaving us alone in the front with no way to exit the building. We had to wait for an employee to eventually come out and unlock the door to let us out. Being physically confined in a building against our will was a terrifying experience that felt immediately threatening. We did not feel safe again until we were finally out of the building and in the safety of our car. Locking customers in is a major fire code violation and a massive failure in management. We have reported this to the Elizabeth Fire Marshal and Teriyaki Madness Corporate. We will not be returning.

Their wide ranging menu reminds me a lot of Checkers. It is very extensive compared to most fast food places and includes the following: tater tots, milk shakes, hot dogs, burgers, chicken sandwiches, sundaes, wings, corn dogs, and even philly cheesesteaks. However, the food here is not as good as Checkers and is just okay. I find their burgers to be a little dry and the wings are really small. Also, whereas Checkers has a lot of value deals (like 2 sandwiches for $5, or $2 specialty burgers), Sonic does not. For NJ, the food feels especially overpriced. The sandwich with fries and drink meals are all around $9-$10
