Shake Shack is a popular burger chain renowned for its shakes and fries, as well as offering breakfast options.

Finding it

Shake Shack is in Marketplace in Terminal 5 at John F. Kennedy International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.

Level

Terminal 5 has 33 places to eat and 8 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 3:30am.

Hours against the security queue

Shake Shack opens at 11am and closes at 10pm. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical JFK checkpoint queue at 21 minutes around 11am.

Across the week, JFK security runs longest around 8am at a median of 33 minutes, and lightest around 2am at 10 minutes. The queue is typically building before this location opens.

Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's JFK wait-time record, not a live reading.
