Steak 'n Shake

Pros: Was trusted to retrieve cash to pay bill
Cons: long wait, warm food

Before leaving the Gulf Coast area and exploring the southeast area of Florida I traveled to my soon to be new home. During my travel I saw many Steak and Shake restaurants along the way. Naturally when you see much of the same restaurant you think that...

Pros: Good food, fast service
Cons: Not so fast drive through service

The thing I like about Steak 'N Shake is that it's a fast food hamburger place but the food is more like what you would get at a fifties 'sit down and order' restaurant. The hamburgers are high quality, more like high grade ground chuck or chopped steak....

Pros: Great food, available 24 hours a day, waiters/waitresses, and of course the double steakburger with cheese platter with fries and chili.
Cons: A bit more pricey than fast food places.

Commercials are supposed to bring customers, right? Maybe Steak 'n Shake is a bit mixed up. Having a couple of the uniformed waiters walk onto your T.V. screen telling you that Steak 'n Shake cuts their pickles the long way is probably not the best...

Pros: open 24 hours
Cons: slowest in restaurant history

I'm a sucker for Steak-n-Shake because it's open 24 hours and I'm tired of Denny's. They have a decent selection, even if it's priced a bit high for fast food. Maybe that's why they are so darn slow. Excruciatingly slow. It's slow food.
My review of...

Pros: fun, great staff
Cons: food is often denny's quality

I have recently become a regular at the local Steak ‘N Shake. When friends and I were looking for somewhere to go in the middle of the night to hang out, we usually opted for Denny’s. However, since the Denny’s here in Tampa is barely above acceptable...

Pros: Great food
Cons: not cheap, not fast

Steak & Shake is great for when I want a break from the usual rotation of Wendy's, Mcdonalds, Taco Bell, etc. It also makes for a good road stop meal. It is not as economical as the aforementioned restaurants, so I only go every once in a...

Pros: open 24 hours
Cons: rude service, slow, over priced

I have only been to one Steak n' Shake, located in Indiana. I have eaten there 3 times, twice dine-in, once drive-thru. Both of my dine-in experiences were acts of desperation. They were both around 3 in the morning and me and my husband had been eating...

Pros: Bean crock, bean crock, I can't believe it's true. If you eat at Stake N Shake the Sea Hag will get you too. The atmosphere of the local Steak N Shake inspired that ditty. We always seem to have fun there.
Cons: The food will guarantee that you toilet won't get lonely for at least a few days.

This review will not use any subliminal messaging....bean crock....to sway you in any way shape...bean crock...or form.

I work in a movie theater. In fact I work in a major cineplex that is quickly strangling the life out of the independent...

Pros: Great chicken, great shakes, great vanilla Diet Coke, great service
Cons: A little pricey

My friend and I were craving a milkshake last night. We started out for our usual United Dairy Farmer's strawberry milkshakes, which are wonderful by the way, but then we realized that we were also hungry. You can't get food at UDF (unless you count a...

Pros: Great Food and Wide Selection For Fast Food
Cons: Takes a little longer than some going through the drive through

I have to tell you that Steak N Shake is still my favorite fast food hamburger place to eat. I will not tell you how many years ago it was that I worked there. I was sweet 16 at the time and my addiction to their food started then.

So is...

Pros: Good Food; Big Menu; Fast; Made to Order; Clean; Smoking Allowed; Carry-Out
Cons: Price; Cash Only; Smoking Allowed; Fries get cold.

I have been a fan of Steak 'n Shake restaurants ever since they built one in my suburban hometown several years ago. Ever since then I've been going there whenever I crave a spicy bowl of Chili Mac or a big chocolate malt. Now I usually go there once...

Pros: Open 24 hours!
Cons: Absolutely everything else about this place is a con

This place is unclean, the people are rude and the service is slower than a turtle racing the hare. I've waited as long as an hour for just a burger and fries and the food tasted like cardboard.

My salad usually came AFTER the meal and my...

Pros: Greasy Diner Food
Cons: Greasy Diner Food

Yes, perhaps one for each chamber of the heart! I enjoy going to Steak and Shake. I can feed all of my nasty habits... I can eat a big greasy burger have a bowl of thick chili and slurp down a rich shake while smoking cigarettes the whole time....

Pros: Decent to good food.
Cons: Slow service.

Steak 'n Shake has several locations within 10 miles of where I live, so I manage to get to one of them every couple of weeks or so. I also stop in one every now and then when I'm on the road in Indiana, Illinois, or Ohio, so I have more than a...

Pros: Nice atmosphere, Great food
Cons: A little extreme for a cheeseburger

Steak 'n Shake has been a part of America for a good 70 years. Since the Stock Market Crash, they have been serving America faithfully and over time become a humongous chain of restaraunts. Nowadays the menu has grown greatly and the service has...
