Bethesda Shake Shack construction update (Photos)


Construction is advancing quickly inside the future Shake Shack at 7535 Old Georgetown Road, in the ground floor of the Element 28 apartment tower in Bethesda. Tile application is well underway on the completed walls and counter. A mural has already been installed, as well. The restaurant has a Montgomery County liquor license hearing scheduled for May 21, 2026 at 1:30 PM. Next on the Shake Shack agenda should be a drive-thru location on River Road or Wisconsin Avenue - it's got to happen!

There are some new and local players to the burger scene which is great. That place at Pike and Rose was very good. But Shake Shack is beyond legit. The good thing is they've opened so many locations that few are busy with long lines. Having a great burger option in downtown will be welcome indeed.

Downtown Bethesda is an incredible walkable, pedestrian friendly, transit-oriented neighborhood. The last thing this area needs is more drive-in restaurants.
