Shake Shack signage installed in Bethesda


Signage has been installed at Shake Shack, opening soon at 7535 Old Georgetown Road in the ground floor of the Element 28 apartment tower. The restrictive sign regulations and slim font lettering of the Shake Shack logo will inhibit visibility for the burger restaurant to drivers passing by. But the location and visibility could not be better for high volume foot traffic emerging from the Bethesda Metro station at night, making it an easy takeout dinner stop for commuters between the station and their apartment or condo downtown. It's been a long road since I was writing about our chances of getting a Shake Shack downtown way back in 2012, but it's finally happening.

Finally. Welcome to Bethesda. Thank goodness it's not a pizza joint, bakery, coffee shop or bank.

Time for a grand taste test: Shake Shack vs. Z-Burger vs. Five Guys vs. Dog Haus

Kewel! Hey, do you know what time the Safeway trucks come in? Give us some photos of those at night, that would be awesome.

8:47. I have not had z Burger or dog haus. I went to the first Five Guys location in Arlington and it blew my mind. SS is a much better burger but Five Guys fries are the best out there I think.

What? The Safeway closed 8 years ago. Did you mean Lidl which replsced it last year?
