Steak 'n Shake, a classic American brand, was founded in 1934 in Normal, Illinois by Gus Belt who pioneered the concept of premium burgers and milkshakes. For over 85 years, the company's name has been symbolic of its heritage. The word "steak" stood for steakburger. The term "shake" stood for hand-dipped milkshakes. Gus was determined to serve his customers the finest burgers and shakes in the business. Today, Steak 'n Shake remains the "better burger" leader, serving premium 100% beef steakburgers, hand-dipped milkshakes, thin crispy fries, and more. Steakburgers are made without preservatives or artificial ingredients, topped with fresh produce, and always hand-crafted to order.

They don't even have servers anymore, it's a kiosk and then they place it on the counter for you to pick it up. And then they expect a tip. It's pretty much an expensive McDonald's at this point....

The food is overpriced for what it is, the drive thru times are slow. The workers are rude and not present in the dine in area, and the restaurant feels weird inside, like a more expensive McDonald's.
