DENVER, CO — Shake Shack has opened its sixth Colorado location at Denver International Airport.

Passengers traveling to and from the airport will have the opportunity to indulge in the restaurant's 100% all-natural Angus beef burgers, spun-fresh frozen custard, crinkle cut fries and more.

“There’s not much better than a burger and a shake,” said DEN Senior Vice President of Concessions Pam Dechant. “We know our passengers are just as excited as we are that the popular Shake Shack has opened its doors at DEN, bringing even more dining options to our airport.”
