Free Milkshakes Monday at Popular Burger Spot

What's better than a cold, smooth milkshake on a warm summer day?  How about a free cold, smooth milkshake on a warm summer day.

To celebrate the impending start of summer, Jake's Wayback Burgers is giving away free junior black and white milkshakes on Monday. There is a Jake's at 503 Baltimore Pike in Springfield.

• A full list of Jake's locations, including Wayne, Exton, Thorndale and West Goshen is available on the chain's website.

The hamburger chain is offering a day of its signature “black and white milkshake,” on the house to welcome the approaching summer months. The black and white shake which Jake's describes as "a blend of creamy chocolate and vanilla flavor" is one of 12 milkshake flavors at Jake’s. In addition to the free small shakes, Jake's will be handing out “Wayback Shake Bucks” coupons good for $5 off any purchase.

Jake's Wayback Burgers first opened in Newark, Delaware in 1991.

The chain now has 70 "diner-like" restaurants across the country, predominantly in Pennsylvania, Delaware and Connecticut.

“Giving away free milkshakes to kick off summer has been a tradition with our brand for years,” said John Eucalitto, president, Jake’s Franchising LLC, said in a press release about the annual free mllkshake event. “The Black & White milkshake is the perfect treat to celebrate summer and give back to our guests.”

The release continues:

Jake’s Wayback Burgers is about serving delicious and fresh, hand-made burgers and hand-dipped milkshakes amidst an atmosphere that hearkens back to a simpler place and time – a time when “customer service” meant something, and everyone felt the warmth of the community. The restaurant offers rich, thick milkshakes made the old-fashioned way by hand, using only fresh milk and hand-dipped ice cream.

The free small milkshakes are available on Monday only. The stores in Chester and Delaware counties are open from 10:30 a.m.-9 p.m. on Monday.
