The Jersey City location will be set up a little differently, as it will feature a walk-up window. A spokeswoman for Shake Shack told Patch.com

“I can confirm that we will be opening a Jersey City location. It will feature a Shack Track Walk Up Window which gives guests the ability to pre-order via the Shack app and pick up their food by way of walk-up window on the exterior of the Shack. Shack Track is Shake Shack’s digital pre-ordering and fulfillment experience. The Shack is scheduled to open in late 2022/early 2023."

Late last year, Shake Shack opened its first drive-thru in Minnesota; the setup there includes a digital menu board, a two-lane ordering system and a separate pickup window. Guests can order while in the drive-thru lanes or order ahead via the company’s app and website.

Even though they are now famous for both their shakes and their “Shackburgers”, the restaurant started out as a hot dog stand in Madison Square Park in Manhattan in 2001; although that sounds like a humble beginning, it had the backing of one of New York City’s most successful restaurateurs, Danny Meyer. It became a permanent kiosk in 2004 and expanded from there, eventually going public in 2015. They now have over 250 restaurants worldwide.
