Shake Shack is opening in Toronto this summer and the famous American chain has announced a fun new menu item that'll only be available in the 6ix.

On April 30, Shake Shack shared that their upcoming Toronto location will have a Maple Salted Pretzel Shake, which is specially crafted for the Canadian market.

"This Toronto-exclusive Shake combines Shake Shack's signature soft, premium vanilla frozen custard with the rich and unmistakable flavour of pure Canadian maple syrup," says the company. "This decadent treat pays homage to Canada's iconic maple syrup industry while adding a local twist to Shake Shack's classic menu."

They've also confirmed that the location for the new 5,500 square foot Shake Shack will be at Yonge and Dundas.

"We are thrilled to confirm the rumours and open our doors at Yonge and Dundas, marking the beginning of a delicious journey for Canadians," said Billy Richmond, Business Director at Shake Shack Canada. "We're excited to serve up our signature Shack classics along with some Canadian exclusives that we've developed with our local culinary partners to be enjoyed amongst Toronto's dynamic cityscape."

The company hasn't announced a firm opening date as yet but has shared that it will be sometime in the summer of 2024. As well as the new Canadian Maple Salted Pretzel Shake, the menu will have classic items from the restaurant like their crinkle-cut fries.
