Steak ‘n Shake is coming to the University of Arizona

University of Arizona students are in for a pleasant surprise when they return to campus for the fall semester.

The Burger King in the UA’s student union is being replaced by Steak ‘n Shake.

Construction is ongoing (a photo of that is above), but the restaurant is expected to open in time for the new school year.

If you’re not familiar with Steak ‘n Shake, it’s a fast-food joint known for its hand-dipped milkshakes and “steakburgers”, as well as its 1950s-style atmosphere.

Sure, that sounds similar to Burger King, but Steak ‘n Shake is in the second tier of fast-food burger joints along with Whataburger and Five Guys.
