Shake Shack Now Open In Bethesda's Westfield Montgomery Mall

BETHESDA, MD — Shake Shack is now open in the Westfield Montgomery Mall, a few months after the hamburger chain announced there would be a new location in Bethesda.

It's open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday, according to the Westfield Montgomery Mall website. The only Shake Shack in Montgomery County that is open now is on Tuckerman Lane in Cabin John Village in Potomac.

Shake Shack is known for thick shakes, frozen custard and burgers. It was first a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in New York City during the summer of 2002 and 2003 before opening as a permanent food kiosk in 2004, according to its website. That original location is still open, and has covered seating for the winter months.

When Shake Shack announced the new Bethesda location over the summer, it said the chain also plans to open a location at 195 Kentlands Boulevard in Gaithersburg in 2022.
