GLENDALE, Calif. (KABC) — Shake Shack launched its second
California restaurant with the grand opening of its Glendale location on
Friday.
The newest burger stand is located at 252 S. Brand Blvd.,
across from The Americana at Brand.
The popular New York-based burger restaurant opened its
first California location at the corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and West
Knoll Drive in West Hollywood back in March.
Shake Shack is known for their smashed burgers, fried
chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, shakes, crinkle-cut fries and dog-friendly
treats.
The chain has developed a cult-like following since it first
opened in New York City´s Madison Square Park more than a decade ago.
Shake Shack said its Glendale location will donate 5 percent
of sales from its Invictus concrete – which features vanilla custard, Compartes
Coney Island chocolate chunks, salted caramel sauce and crumbled sugar cone
cookie – to Ascencia, a nonprofit that is helping to end homelessness in
Glendale.
Shake Shack plans to open a third Southern California
location in downtown Los Angeles in 2017.
