Shake Shack doesn’t have very many vegan options but you can have the fries, and some locations have a vegan burger patty.
See all of the vegan options at Shake Shack listed below.
Disclaimer: Before we get into the options, keep in mind that cross-contact with animal products is likely at any restaurant that isn’t fully vegan.
Certain ingredients may also unknowingly be sourced from animals, such as natural flavors, and sugar may be processed with bone char.
If you are okay with these potential issues as a vegan, check out the options below.
Vegan Options at Shake Shack
Here are the vegan options at Shake Shack at the time of writing this post. Keep in mind that ingredients can change at any time, so be sure to confirm at your Shake Shack location.
Vegan Burger
Shake Shack has a Veggie Shack burger at certain locations. The patty is vegan, but make sure you say you want the burger to be vegan when you order it so that they give you a vegan bun and only vegan toppings (no cheese or regular mayo).
Most of the burgers at Shake Shack come in buns that contain milk, but they do have a bun without milk for the Veggie Shack burger.
Vegan burger buns to choose from:
- Vegan wheat burger bun.
- You can also choose the gluten-free bun, which is vegan too.
- If you don’t want a bun, you can have your veggie burger in a lettuce wrap.
Toppings that come on the vegan Veggie Shack burger:
- Vegan mayo
- Avocado
- Lettuce
- Pickles
- Tomatoes
All vegan burger topping options:
- Vegan mayo
- Avocado
- Lettuce
- Pickles
- Tomatoes
- Onion

The crispy shallots contain milk so don’t use them as a burger topping.
