Shake Shack Shakes Menu
Last checked: 7 November 2026. Prices and calories below are indicative.
They vary by location, and show the in-store guides checked rather than delivery menus. Check the app at your Shack before you order, because prices change.
Shakes lead the drinks menu, and everything else supports them.
Hand-spun shakes come in classic flavours, plus seasonal flavours that change through the year. Floats and frozen custard sit beside the shakes on most boards, with concretes as the richer option. Frozen custard is sold in cups and cones, and concretes mix custard with toppings in the cup.
Lemonades and iced tea are the lighter, non-dairy drinks on the board. Concretes are thick enough to hold a spoon upright, and you order them by the flavour named on the board. The shakes are the part reviewers keep coming back to, thick enough that your straw stands upright, and the vanilla is the benchmark every other flavour gets judged against. Lemonades are the lighter counterpoint, with reviewers calling them tart and refreshing next to the richness of the custard.
For food to go with a shake, see the Shake Shack menu homepage, the burgers page, the chicken page, and the fries page.
How much is a Shake Shack shake?
A classic shake was listed at $6.39 to $6.99 in the in-store guides checked, and higher on delivery.
The Denver airport location lists classic shakes at $7.45, which is an airport price. DoorDash delivery menus list classic shakes at up to $8.19. One rival location tracker reported a competing chain’s shake price as $5.20 in the same check, so classic shakes sit above that price.
Use $6.39 to $6.99 as the usual in-store guide range. All prices and calories on this page are indicative and vary by location.

Calorie figures in this table are verified in the official Shake Shack Nutrition and Allergen Information PDF: Vanilla 680, Chocolate 750, Strawberry 690, Cookies and Cream 850, Black and White 770, Coffee 700, Vanilla & Chocolate 720, and Orange County Dreamsicle 740. Prices for the other classic flavours were not consistently reported across the guides checked, so no figures are given here instead of a guess. The online value offer of $6 shakes on online and app orders at participating Shacks was reported by one guide, and that offer is unverified.
Which shake should I order first?
Order the vanilla shake. It is the benchmark, and every other shake gets judged against it.
Vanilla is 680 calories, which is more than a single ShackBurger at 500 calories. That fact surprises people, and it should shape the order. A shake is not a drink on the side. It is a dessert, and it is the heaviest single item in a standard meal. Order it when you want it, and know what it costs in calories before you do. One shake ranking put the vanilla second only to the best seasonal flavour, and the reviewer admitted she is not even a vanilla person, which says a lot about how good the custard base is. It is thick enough to need a spoon at the start, and it stays thick and creamy to the last sip.
Chocolate is the second order, at 750 calories. It is the classic pairing with fries, and it is the flavour most people mean when they say they want a shake with their burger. Strawberry is lighter in flavour, at 690 calories, so do not assume it is lighter in calories. Cookies and Cream is the sweetest of the classic flavours, at 850 calories, and it is the one to skip if you already ordered bacon cheese fries.
What are the seasonal shakes?
Seasonal shakes change through the year, and they are the hardest items on this page to pin down.
Guides list a Christmas Cookie Shake and a Reese’s Shake among recent seasonal shakes, with a Butterbeer Frappe reported at the Wizarding World park and likely to be the next limited-time flavour. Those names are limited-time, and appearing once does not mean they are on the board now. One tracker reported a single seasonal shake at $7.54, with other seasonal names unpriced. The limited-time seasonal shakes in the table above are Brownie Batter Hot Cocoa Shake, Cherry Blossom Shake, Thai Iced Tea Shake, Coffee + Donut Shake, Chocolate Yule Log Shake, Maple Snickerdoodle Shake, and Frozen Hot Cocoa Shake.
Do not plan a visit around a seasonal shake, because the board changes and the flavour you want may have ended. The dated limited-time note on this page reports the latest status, and the all items menu carries the current status, and ended items are removed there rather than left as a permanent list.
What are floats and frozen custard cups?
Floats and custard cups are the other frozen desserts, and they are simpler than concretes.
A float is a shake or custard with soda, served in a cup you drink and spoon. Guides list floats at $5.70 to $6.49, plus a $6.69 float reported by one guide.
Custard cups are listed by guides at $4.29 to $4.79. One stale source is still cited in some guides as $3.50 for a custard cup, and that figure is not used in this table. Check the app for the current price at your Shack before you order a dessert to go with a burger.
Concretes are frozen custard blended with mix-ins, served thick enough to hold a spoon upright. Signature concretes exist, and local concretes vary by Shack. The full concrete list, with the location-varying note, is on the concretes page. This page carries no full concrete table, because the concretes page is the home for that list.
What lemonades does Shake Shack serve?
Shack-made Lemonade comes in regular and strawberry, and the Fifty/Fifty is half lemonade and half iced tea.
Lemonades are the lighter pick against a shake, though exact calorie figures by size and flavour were not verified for this page. One stale rival guide was picked up by other guides as $2, and that figure is not used here. Guides put lemonade prices at $3.49 to $4.99, with the Fifty/Fifty unpriced.
Strawberry lemonade is one of the two flavours on the board, alongside regular lemonade. The Fifty/Fifty mixes lemonade and iced tea in equal parts, and it is the drink to order if a plain lemonade feels too tart. The lemonade gets called tart and refreshing in review after review, and the strawberry version is the one people single out as a standout with a burger. If the tartness is too much, the Fifty/Fifty is the fix reviewers point to, half lemonade and half iced tea, and Shake Shack’s own staff recommend it unsweetened.
What about sodas, iced tea, coffee, and root beer?
Fountain soda, iced tea, coffee, and root beer cover the rest of the drinks list, and soda is the cheapest drink on the menu.
A fountain soda is listed at $3.29 to $3.49 in the in-store guides checked, and delivery menus list it up to $4.99. One guide lists it at $1.00, and that figure has no support anywhere else, so treat it as an error. Iced tea is listed in guides as a standard drink, with prices that vary by size and location.
Coffee and hot drinks appear in the menu, with prices that were not consistently reported, so no figures are given here. Root beer appears in search terms, and its availability and price were not verified for this page. Coffee is a breakfast drink, and it is also listed on the breakfast page.
| Drink | In-store guide range | Notes |

| Fountain soda | $3.29 to $3.49 | Cheapest drink in the guides checked |

All prices in this table are indicative and vary by location. The online value offer of $2 sodas on online and app orders at participating Shacks was reported by one guide, and that offer is unverified. Check the app before you count on it.
Does Shake Shack serve beer and wine?
Yes, at many locations, and availability varies by location.
Guides list ShackMeister Ale and wine, with local beer lists that vary by Shack. One airport location lists a Salted Honey Blonde Ale at $8.00, and that is an airport price.
Beer and wine are unavailable at some Shacks, and the chains’ own guidance is to check your location. No specific Shack is listed here as serving beer and wine, and none is listed as not serving it. Check location availability and age restrictions at your Shack.
A beer float and a shandy are reported by guides as orderable where beer is served, and both are custom orders rather than regular menu items. Staff can say no to a build they cannot make. Ask politely, name the ingredients, and accept the answer. The full customisation list is in the menu guide.
Is there a non-dairy shake at Shake Shack?
No vegan shake is listed in the US at the time of research, and that status is unverified for future changes.
One dietary guide, updated in October 2026, reports that non-dairy chocolate custard and shakes are in development, with burger and shake options listed in that guide, and no details of a release date. Searchers still ask whether Shake Shack has a vegan shake, and a site search will still point them to this page.
Lemonades and iced tea are non-dairy drinks on the board. The full dietary section lives in the menu guide.
Peanut cross-contact is the other allergen point on this page. Shakes made with peanut ingredients carry cross-contact risk for other shakes, according to the dietary guides checked. If you have a peanut allergy, tell the team at your Shack, and use the official Nutrition and Allergen Information PDF, not a third-party summary.
How do I order shakes and drinks for pickup or delivery?
Order in the app for pickup, and expect delivery prices to run higher than in-store prices.
Delivery menus on DoorDash list a vanilla shake up to $8.19, against $6.39 to $6.99 in the in-store guides checked. Delivery prices typically run a dollar or more above in-store prices, and shakes are no exception. Shakes travel badly, and they melt fast.
Pickup is the safest way to drink a shake at Shake Shack. Lemonades and sodas travel better, and they stay cold. Delivery reviews keep reporting the same problem, that shakes arrive melted and watery after a longer trip, even when the burger holds up. One reviewer put it plainly, the milkshake was very melted and watery, which is why pickup is the safer way to drink one.
Rewards and gift cards are covered in the menu guide, along with app offers, with expiry-aware wording and no invented offer. A code for a free item with a $10 online order on Sundays was reported by one guide, with an expiry of 27 December 2026, and that code is unverified. Check the app before you count on any deal.
How many calories are in a Shake Shack shake?
A vanilla shake is 680 calories. The classic shake calories are verified in the official Shake Shack Nutrition and Allergen Information PDF: Vanilla 680, Chocolate 750, Strawberry 690, Cookies and Cream 850, Black and White 770, and Coffee 700.
That single figure still answers the question people actually ask, because it shows the scale. A vanilla shake at 680 calories is more than a single ShackBurger at 500 calories. It is also more than a bag of crinkle-cut fries in the sizes checked, and the full table is the place to find the fuller picture.
A burger with fries and a shake makes a filling meal, and that combination is the easiest way to push past a thousand calories. Swap the shake for a soda or a lemonade if you want to keep the total lower. The full calorie table is in the all items menu.

Sources note for prices and calories
Prices and calories on this page are indicative and vary by location. They come from the competitor research file dated 7 November 2026, which cross-checked in-store guides, delivery menus, an airport location menu, and nutrition sources that cite the official Nutrition and Allergen Information PDF. Where sources disagreed, this page shows the range and names the outlier.
Single-source figures are labelled unverified, and single-source-only items were left out. For ordering and the current menu at your Shack, use the official Shake Shack site and app, and use the official Nutrition and Allergen Information PDF for allergen detail. Reviewers keep finding the same thing, that the food tastes the same from place to place while the prices move by location, so the guides all warn to check before you order. Delivery menus run higher than in-store ones, and that gap is the reason this page shows ranges instead of single figures.
