The famous New York burger brand is celebrating its Manchester debut with a special giveaway

New York burger spot Shake Shack is coming to Manchester. 

The new Shack is set to arrive at the Trafford Centre on Friday 27 March, with the first 100 people in line when the venue opens at 12pm receiving a free ShackBurger® or ‘Shroom Burger. To keep the good vibes rolling, Shake Shack will also have a custard cart serving complimentary mini scoops of chocolate frozen custard throughout the day, while supplies last.

Guests can enjoy all the Shack classics, from the ShackBurger® and Crinkle-Cut Fries to Flat-Top Dogs and hand-spun shakes. All the meat on the menu is halal-certified, including beef and chicken, halal-certified beef hot dogs, and, for the first time in the UK, halal bacon. Everything is prepared without alcohol in the kitchen. 

With 134 indoor covers, the restaurant will be a bright, buzzing hub complimented by illustrations by local illustrator Jessica Lee, matching the energy of the location and bringing a Mancunian flair.
