Just recently, I went on a food adventure and decided to check out Steak N Shake. You see, the "Steak" in their name actually refers to their number-one bestseller - the Steakburger. Crafted originally from a mix of T-bone, sirloin, and round steaks, this beast of a meal had my mouth watering right from the get-go. And to wash that all down, they’ve got their "Shakes" - made by hand and presented in a dizzying array of delicious flavors.
A quick heads-up for anyone thinking of throwing a party or a group outing, Steak N Shake's got you covered! They've got a pretty extensive catering menu chock-full of delicious classic steakburgers, grilled cheese, steak franks, crispy fries, and homemade milkshakes. To sweeten the deal, they offer same-day delivery and pickup serving groups from 10 to 1,000 people.
While I was there, I learned that Steak N Shake has quite a few discount and reward opportunities. First thing I noticed was that they have a half-price happy hour every weekday from 2-4 p.m., where you can get all shakes and drinks for half their regular price. I also discovered they have a Rewards Club that you can sign up for on their website or via the Steak N Shake App. And guess what? If you sign up, you get a free shake, a $5 reward for every $50 spent, and some exclusive deals!
