Shake Shack is bringing back its fan‑favorite Korean‑style menu with new additions, including K‑Shack Fried Chicken Bites and the K‑Shack Spicy Caramel Shake, at participating locations starting January 9, 2026.
Inspired by the Shake Shack culinary team’s early trips to Seoul in 2016, here’s a closer look at the brand’s Korean‑inspired menu for 2026:
- New K‑Shack Fried Chicken Bites ($6.49 – 6 pieces): Bite‑size pieces of antibiotic‑free, whole white‑meat chicken coated in a sesame gochujang glaze, finished with fresh scallions and served with a dipping sauce of your choice.
- K‑Shack Fried Chicken Sandwich ($10.49): An antibiotic‑free, hand‑breaded chicken breast made from whole white meat, finished with a sesame gochujang glaze that balances heat and sweetness. It’s topped with scallions and kimchi slaw prepared with Choi’s Kimchi, served on a toasted potato bun.
- K‑Shack BBQ Burger ($10.49): A made‑to‑order burger made with 100% Angus beef, layered with American cheese, crispy sweet onions, scallions, and Korean BBQ sauce on a toasted potato bun.
- K‑Shack Spicy BBQ Fries ($5.49): Crinkle‑cut fries seasoned with kimchi spice and paired with a side of Korean‑style BBQ sauce for dipping.
- New K‑Shack Spicy Caramel Shake ($6.99): Frozen custard blended with gochujang‑infused caramel, then topped with whipped cream and an extra drizzle of the same caramel.
Available for a limited time, the Korean‑style menu launches nationwide at Shacks on January 9, with early access now available for app users.
