Why is shake shack getting compared to these two? Isn't shake shack twice as expensive? It should be better.

Not really, but in the last 10 years or so it has become the darling of Texas upper middle class suburbanites.

Mingo Was His NameO, I highly doubt you have the posterity nor the vehemence or fervor to make such a snide remark to our faces.

Oh god.. only been there twice but horrible experiences both times.. completely screwed up my order each time, and the burger itself was maybe the blandest i’ve ever tasted.. I’m no fan of Whataburger, but P Terrys even made Whataburger seem appetizing.. At least my second time at P Terrys, they acknowledged screwing up my order and gave me a free cookie AND let me have my bland burger for free, true story.

BDT actually has a pretty good track record in this.

They have done a good job with Malnati’s and Athletico, to name two that I know of.
