In sunny St. Augustine, Florida, where sunshine kisses the shore, Steak 'n Shake sparkles bright at 1760 U.S. Highway 1 South, FL 32084! We zipped through the drive-thru 'round noon on June fourteen, And oh what a magical whirl -- the happiest scene ever seen! They served with fast, friendly, and efficient cheer, Whisking our order like fairies with nothing to fear! I devoured the best burger and fries I've had in a long, long time, Juicy, crispy perfection that made every bite simply sublime! To lump this treasure with ordinary fast food would truly be an insult grand, For Steak 'n Shake dances above like the king of the land! With shakes that shimmy sweetly and flavors that playfully play, This whimsical drive-thru delight brightens the whole sunny day! read more

It's a shame that Steak 'n Shake is the only location in town. My husband, daughter, and I rarely eat fast food, but tonight we were all in the mood for a quick meal. Unfortunately, that turned out to be a huge mistake. We ordered two Number 9 Bacon & Cheese Singles. One was ordered exactly as listed on the menu, while the other was customized with no pickles, onions, or ketchup, and mustard added instead. We also specifically asked for fresh fries and were told that the fries are "always dropped fresh." The customized burger was completely wrong. It came with everything we specifically asked to have removed, and to make matters worse, it was missing the bacon entirely. If the staff can't follow a simple order, that's a serious problem. The fries were even more disappointing. Despite being told they were fresh, they were clearly not. They were cold, stale, and tasted like they had been sitting out for quite some time. For a restaurant that prides itself on burgers and fries, the quality was unacceptable. Overall, the experience was frustrating and a complete waste of money. Between the incorrect order, poor food quality, and misleading response about the fries, Steak 'n Shake failed on every level. We rarely eat fast food, and experiences like this remind us why. If you're looking for a good burger and fries, save yourself the disappointment and go to Culver's instead. read more

Stopped through the drive-thru on my way home and was happy I did. I ordered a number 2 which was a single patty and the fries. Inwas going to get fries from chick-fil-a but the nice extra large Fries cooked in 100% Beef Tallow sign made me do a sharp turn into their parking lot. Glad I did they were amazing! Service was great! Prices were fair. Yummy treat. Oreo Shake 10/10 Burger 10/10 Fries 100/100 read more

Ordered this to go & took it back to work 5 minutes away. This is what I opened. And the food was cold, not luke warm, cold. The fries tasted old and they didn't even fill up the fry box. The managers there alway have a piss poor attitude and they're never friendly. read more

Steak ’n Shake - Serious?! - Burgers Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

Got a bunch of people just bs-ing around talking instead of making the orders. Saw us when we walked in and walked away. Order went in at 10:57. Groaned about the orders and didn't start cooking till 11:05. She put the burgers on the grill and walked away to talk and drink a milkshake. We were here yesterday too and another employee was straight up yelling at a guest. Granted he wasn't the nicest guy, but that's not customer service. Regardless. I've worked the food industry for over 13 years and have never seen that. This ain't Waffle House. It's 11:15, just got our food. And we're missing a side of fries. read more

I made a quick right turn to surprise my husband with a Milkshake from Steak 'n Shake. I went through the Drive Thru. Ordered an Oreo Cookies and cream shake $5.29. A Reese peanut butter cup milkshake $4.99. Both were thick and creamy. The cashier was friendly. Greeted me with a big smile.we laughed about the size of the shake. I'll definitely be back soon to check out that smash burger . read more

The good was the food. Very good. Came out hot and tasty. Strawberry shake tasted very artificial tho The bad .... We didn't like having to listen to employees very loudly airing their grievances about work related things. It went on for our entire meal and when we indicated it was a problem it did not stop. Very disappointing and in professional. Your manager or assistant and female employees need some retraining in how to act in their establishment. read more

Delish with a side of hatefulness 12/2/25 @ noon.. 2 workers here. 1 with a tattoo on her neck, absolutely so Rude to everyone....someone left because of her hatefulness... obviously hates her job here. Needs a lesson in customer service. The other gal (jags hat) was super sweet and getting it done. read more

the owner was extremely rude. did not listen to my husband's small request. shut him up. it ruined our lunch. I just threw mine in the trash. stay away from this location read more

Steak ’n Shake - Love this place! - Burgers Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

i just waited 26 minutes and watch this man cook 1 burger at a time. got frustrated and asked for my money back and left. service sucked.

This steak n shake is a sad, sad facsimile of the mid western staple I enjoyed and appreciated so very much in other parts of the US. The food is mostly the same, but the staff members refusal to deal with an order issue will forever tarnish my brand perception. I was used to folks making a better experience a priority. No wonder the place next door has a line around the block. read more

Whoever was at the drive thru 8/1/25 after four was obviously not wanting to work. Super short with talking to the customer and got easily annoyed with me as I didn't order immediately. I heard her sigh and say "WOW!" on the intercom as I was driving to the window. Very uncalled for. I'm tired too, but I'm not rude. read more

The manager there was rude and yelling at a delivery driver when I was about to walk in. So unprofessional left a bad taste in my mouth. I quickly turned around and left. They messed up his order and he was trying to rectify the situation. And she was cursing at him. I will NEVER go back there again read more

I appreciate Steak 'n Shake being proactive and switching from seed oils over to beef tallow. As a result, the taste of the fries is absolutely amazing. A much healthier option, I will frequent their chains. read more

Horrible experience food was bad atmosphere poor. We walked in around 6 PM on Tuesday night October 28. It looked like the had shut down. One lonely man was sitting there a single booth eating. We noticed no waitresses were available only a kiosk available to place your orders For dining or . We were able to fumble through the kiosk, then went the drink machine a cup of carbonated water until a lady from behind counter said you have to put your code in and then pour your drink within so many seconds for it to work. Later, as we were eating, we were noticing a small line of later customers that had come in, that they were backing up because they couldn't figure out how to use the drink machine either no directions no instructions nothing written that you have to use your code and you have to Dispense your drink within so many seconds or it will go off. We received our order it was incorrect of course, no mail on my double steak burger no french fries cold chili. By the way, I was told that it was the last order of chili available. When did steak 'n Shake ever run out of chili since it's one of their famous side dishes? We spent over $25 on this meal that was not worth it. We are horribly disappointed in what you have done to steak 'n Shake this is steak 'n Shake on US in Florida around a very busy business area. I look for this place to close up any day now there is no way that they can sustain business With this type of service. No waitresses to be found they had half the lobby blocked off when we got there only 3 to 4 small available at the time we arrived. The lady later had to open the up as provide other customers that were coming in a place to sit obviously, this must have made her upset because the chairs were loudly scooted across the floor And the attitude totally sucked. We will never go there again ever. read more

We have always loved this steak and shake the food here is excellent. We loved it when it was sit down with an awesome waitstaff and we now love the kind, hard working, super great drive through they experience they have now. Your food is always fresh. The workers are courteous and thorough. I've heard you can sit inside now but we haven't tried that. Different people complaining about the landscape I could care less about that I'm not eating the bushes. I come from New England where all the buildings are run down old and gross and you will find some of the best food you ever had so I'm okay with that as long as the food is good I'm ok. read more

The service was trash. Dusty at the drive through was an seemed like he didn't have a clue his manager sounded like a 10 year old. Restaurant was completely empty took for ever to bring the food it was cold and burnt when asking dor corprates number they said it's on the receipt. Then he walked away. I asked where's it at rhen he said you have to google it. The. Come to find out there not a corprate store. I would never eat here ever again. Then they said to add to the order I would have to drive back around an place another order they said it's company policy so I googled it. That's not true. Its up to the stores description. So they told me about 5 different lies. I repeat do not do not give them any of your service or money they are hotrible....... I would give them zero stars but it want let me**** 17.00 i threw themat garbage strait into the trash. This store is a joke and should be shut down........ throw up read more

The worst employees working there. They treat the customer with such disrespect. I will never enter this St Augustine Steak and Shake ever again. They need to hire retired workers who want to make extra money and will treat customers the way they should be treated. The world is going to the shitter if this generation doesn't wake up and realize they need to be held accountable. read more

My GF and I walked into this one tonight, and as soon as we saw they only had order by kiosk, we walked right out. Won't patronize a place that doesn't provide service. read more

Against my better judgement I didn't listen to Yelp nation. Honestly, they should just call this place shakes and shakes and just make shakes. The shakes are fine. A step above McDonald's McFlurrys. The "steaks" are offensive. It really tastes like rancid powder meat. Ive never been to a steak and shake and I hope to never go to another one again. The toppings tasted rancid too. The tomatoes and pickles tasted like acid. The fries were burnt, yet cold. Go once for the experience to share the camaraderie of the negative experience but never come back. read more

If you haven't been in awhile you'll be surprised. You order electronically inside and your order is called. You can eat inside but no table service. It's fast food if for sure but it was a great tasting burger. read more

well the lady that cook are meal was great the manager a total rude in professional and the way she talked to customers she shouldn't be a manager. she needs to leave her issues at home and not take it out on other ppl just cause she has a bad day week whatever poor service even made the food wrong stay away from this nightmare read more

I can't comment on the inside of the place, but from the drive thru. The lady at the drive thru greeted us very friendly and respectful. We placed our order with no issues. When we go to the window to pay and get our food, the lady informed us that the Dr Pepper was watered down. I thought that was very nice she did that & asked for a substitution rather than just serving the watered down dr pepper. The food came out hot & fresh. The burger was not greasy & neither were the fries. Perfect amount of salt on them as well. The milkshake too, strawberry one, was made so well. I hadn't had one in so long and it did not disappoint! read more

Worst Steak n Shake on the East Coast! The quality of the service and food is so bad we will NEVER eat there again! The burgers were cold and charred, and they were actually serving non Steak 'n Shake fries....also cold and under cooked! What happened to the days where Steak 'n Shake was the best placed to get a fresh burger, really good fries and a malt/ milkshake actually made instead of squirted out of a machine--I wish In and Out would come to STA--the owners of this Steak 'n Shake should be ashamed at how bad they have let the "brand" decline! read more

Well we had high hopes. The wait was crazy. First the drive thru gal tells us they have a lot of online orders and the wait is long to come inside. The wait inside was crazy long but there was not anyone in the dining area. When we got a burger it had a foul smell to it. read more

I love stake and shake... sure... it's not the cleanest or fastest fast food on the planet, BUT, everyone is nice (mostly) for some reason they gave us a to go cup because "the glass cups are not cold." ‍ no clue what that ment but food is delicious and so are the shakes read more

This is the worst establishment I have ever walked into. The floors were sticky, there was dirt and the place looks the counter were the only thing being cleaned. We came to pick-up some burgers as I'm a big believer of trying everything once (and it was on our way to our destination). I did not look up reviews beforehand, but I wish I had! The burgers were small, not tasty, and honestly felt frozen, and unthawed at best. The veggies on the burger did feel fresh, but the rest I could have just bought at my supermarket from the frozen section and it would probably would have been more delicious. Please just go to the 5 guys or any other burger place nearby! It is a cheaper meal. But clearly you are not receiving any sort of quality food. Lucky we did not get sick! Our visit was before the pandemic so I cannot speak to the precautions being taken presently, but no matter what the state of public health is.... the place was a public health hazard even before Covid-19 bombarded its way into our lives. Positive: 1 star for the kind staff. They seem to be hard-working nice people, and I wish them the best, but I would stay far far away from ever ordering, picking up or even eating in. read more

You forget after a year how pathetically SLOW this location is. A couple years ago I was worried they were inside being robbed or something. Nope, lady at the window said they were short handed. Okay, so what's the issue this time? Crazy thing is across the parking lot is a competing place that's know for their chicken sandwiches primarily. You can also see 25 so cars there and like 5-6 at this Steak n Shake and ALL 25 over there are served and on their way... here? Still in line. read more

Cold. Not even luke warm French fries that tasted like stale oil and cardboard. In the garbage they went. Banana shake tasted like concentrated sugar syrup. In the garbage it went. Utterly disgusting. Waste of a $10 bill read more

Several had mentioned that Steak n Shake in St Augustine had really improved and urged folks to give them a chance. Today it worked out that we had the opportunity to do so. You now order online whether for inside seating or carry out. Staff was quick to assist and it really was pretty self explanatory. The food was really good, hot and fast. The toppings for the burhpgers were fresh and lots of choices. My husband got a shake and he was pleased with it. I got a fountain coke and it was better than at many establishments. People were helpful and friendly. Management was supportive of staff. I wished they still had the baked beans side. Don't know when that was eliminated because of very poor experiences at a Steak n Shake elsewhere it has been years sine I have been to one. I would advise folks to give them a try. They deserve support. read more

Poor customer service and lack of management. Takes far too long to get your meal. All the other reviews are true. Stay far away.

Went through the drive through to pick up a late dinner for the niece and I. We ordered off their $4 menu and were pleased. The service was quick and the food was perfectly done, no errors at all. And the fries were fresh! read more

The service in the drive-through was fast and the food is good. Just wish they would continue chili three ways the way it used to be. Chili five ways means I have to ask for them to remove the onions and cheese. Also the broth consistency is different from the original version. read more

Listen - 11pm on a holiday weekend - understaffed and long wait but friendly service and the food was still accurate and great! Seriously. Appreciate the work during the heavy orders after a concert read more

Im not sure why this steak n shake has low reviews because it was one of my best DINING experiences probably ever and ive rated a steak n shake before and lets just say its not longer in business. Not sure if this is a new thing in all steak n shakes or just due to covid, but they had touch screens where you order and then you sit and then they bring you your food. I know all steak n shake "tastes the same" but youre wrong. This one was INCREDIBLE. Burgers, cheese fries, chili, shakes, chicken fingers were all amazing. On point. Quick service and hot food. The burgers looked like the menu. Usually they're all slopped over, but these could have been photographed. Also the waiter was so nice when we asked of he had the paper hats for us adults. Its the little things. I wish i lived closer, because id come here weekly. read more
