    I love this place so much!  The price is amazing and so is the food.  Now don't get me wrong it could use more cleaning staff but that's not what I'm reviewing.  If I could choose one place to eat for the rest of my life it would be here!

    This is a hamburger shack right on New Circle Road.  It is before or past Broadway depending what direction you are driving on New Circle.  They have a great old fashioned hamburger.  We ordered a cheeseburger and fries.  Great food!  Definitely a must do if you enjoy a good burger.

    Burger Shake is a simple, no-frills burger place that has clearly been here for while. The small size and the age of the building adds to its charm.

    Burgers, hot dogs, chicken, fries, drinks, and milkshakes grace the menu. And friends, everything is so amazingly cheap.... but they don't taste cheap! I had a burger, fries, and a strawberry milkshake. My husband had a chocolate milkshake and a food (I forget what he ordered).

    Husband and I both hate mustard so we were a bit surprised to discover the burgers had only mustard (and onions) on it, no ketchup at all. Had we known that, we would've been specific about skipping the mustard. Otherwise, no biggie.

    Perfect size burger, perfect size fries, perfect size milkshake. GREAT price.

    You don't find a lot of places like this anymore.

    Just two things: during the winter, be prepared to leave your coat on while you eat. The dining area was quite chilly. Not sure if it was the lack of heat or the fact that the entire area is surrounded by windows. Also, it doesn't seem like the cleanest building to eat in, but that's probably due to age. The bathroom was clean enough for me.

    Oh, and Burger Shake is CASH ONLY.

    Came in to order and there was a long line of 8 or more people that haven't got there food yet .. stood there for 5 minutes .. and then another lady's order was wrong stood there 15 more minutes then we just turned around and walked out poor service!

    The quick service and delicious food will definitely bring me back. The fact that I spent about $13 for a total of two cheeseburgers, two chili dogs, a large fry, 2 fountain drinks and a small shake is just an added bonus. If you plan on visiting make sure to bring cash as that is their only accepted payment.
