HOUSTON —What’s shakin’ Houston?! Shake Shack® is thrilled to announce it will open its doors in Rice Village on Feb. 28 at 11 a.m. The Rice Village Shack will be situated in a prominent corner location at 6205 Kirby Drive. This marks Shake Shack’s third Houston Shack, with existing locations at The Galleria and Minute Maid Park.
In addition to the Shack classics, The Rice Village Shack will be spinning up a selection of local frozen custard concretes: Pie Oh My (vanilla custard and slice of seasonal pie from Fluff Bake Bar), West U-nicorn (vanilla custard, unicorn bait cookie from Fluff Bake Bar, strawberry puree and salted caramel sauce) and Chocolatee Minted Marshmallow (chocolate custard, minted marshmallow sauce and chocolate truffle cookie dough).
The menu will also feature the Texas-exclusive Lockhart Link Burger, a cheeseburger topped with griddled Kreuz Market jalapeño cheese sausage link, pickles and ShackSauceTM.

As part of Shake Shack’s mission to Stand For Something Good®, The Rice Village Shack will donate 5% of sales from its Pie Oh My pie concrete to Houston Humane Society, whose mission is to end cruelty, abuse and the overpopulation of animals while providing the highest quality of life. Shack team members will also volunteer at events run by the organization.
