The Shake Shack French Onion menu is a new series of food items that pay homage to the humble onion and offer customers a way to indulge their fall cravings for root vegetables. The menu starts off with the French Onion Soup Burger that mimics the dish with an Angus beef patty, Gruyere, caramelized onions, crispy onions and a roasted garlic parmesan aioli, all serving on a toasted potato bun. The burger is on the menu alongside the French Onion 'Shroom burger as a meat-free option as well as the French Onion Shack Stack, Onion Rings and Parmesan Garlic Fries.
The Shake Shack French Onion menu will be rolling out starting September 12, 2025 but will only be on offer for a short time.
