About Steak N Shake, History and Headquarters Information

Steak N Shake was established in 1934 by Gus Belt, formerly working in United States Marine Corps. He started the eating joint by combining gas station/chicken restaurant. He started all this with the aim to serve his customers with the finest burgers and shakes. To reassure his customers about the prime quality of the burgers he sold, he followed the practice to take a wheel in a barrel of steaks including round, sirloin, and T-bones and grind the meat into burgers right in front of the patrons. The slogan, “In Sight It Must Be Right” was raised because of this matter only. It is based in Indianapolis, Indiana and is a subsidiary of Biglari Holdings Inc.

Steak N Shake is an American restaurant chain selling the highest quality burgers and shakes. In addition to this, it also sells clothing, accessories, and collectibles online and offers franchise opportunities as well. As of the current date, there are more than 20,732 employees working at the company. According to the data, there are around 628 Steak ‘n Shake restaurants in operation all around the globe such as in the South, Mid-Atlantic, and the Western United States, Europe, and the Middle East.

I witnessed Joshua sheets sexual comments. He had a lighter with breast on it and wanted to say something to a customer in the drive through. This is very unprofessional especially in a work setting making other people around him uncomfortable.

Went to steak and shake to get a shake has been awhile when I went to place my order I asked for a shake they no longer make but saw the ingredients up there so figured I’d ask was told very rudely you can order anything you see on the menu…i asked if I could get 2 flavors like straw /banana or maybe just use chocolate ice cream and get banana so choc/straw again rudely you can only order whats on the menu we dont mix syrups when i got to the window I asked if she was the manager and she said she was I said I’m sorry but you’re rude she asked why I said that.. its the way you speak to ppl she said this is how I talk I said then maybe you need to change that its the tone , the nonchalant way like she didnt care and the words …she could of chosen differently …maybe this is why there were no cars in the parking lot and I was the only one in drive thru

My family and I ate at the Pearl Mississippi location today. The service was not good at all. The food was fair except for the old fries we received. We were disappointed to have to place our order on the kiosk and not be able to pay by cash. We most likely won’t eat there again or recommend it.

My wife and I visited the sheffield store 5300 Abbe Road. Sheffield, Ohio. At 2:53 pm on August 4,2023. Upon entering we found to find the restaurant very very dirty dry food on the floor and tables torn seats high chairs with dry food all over them. The return tray station had dry food on top and running down the sides and front of it. The bathroom were really gross the trash was over flowing on to the for and the toilets were very nasty and in addition to the sinks.
General we love going to Steak and Shake and understand that short staff with a lot of business. But that was very nasty in there.

Thank you.

WORST experience ever. Sat with my 2 year old for 15 minutes after ordering drinks and never received them. The server kept saying “sorry I’ll be right back”. We ended up getting up and leaving after 23 minutes of never receiving our drinks. I’m a server my self at a much busier restaurant. If she can’t handle the 3 tables she had then maybe she shouldn’t be a server. I would never recommend this Steak ‘n Shake to anyone considering we went to the barboursville location a few weeks back where there was only 1 server, 8 tables he had by his self and had our drinks and food all within 15 minutes with 2 other people with us. Such a horrible experience and horrible horrible server.

My husband and I ate at Steak and Shake in Taylorville, Illinois yesterday about 3:30. Ordered 2 meals to eat in, plus 3 cheeseburgers to take when we left. Paid for all when we ordered. We are regulars there, about once a week. When we were almost ready to leave I went to counter and told them we would be ready soon. Young man, tall and very thin was standing by stove. Threw his hands in the air and yelled ” fuck ” and threw spatula on stove, still screaming, and stomped to drive up window and banged fists on window. I asked older, bald man ,who’s always there, if he was going to put up with behavior like that, especially when customers are present. He calmly said he couldn’t do anything since he only had 2 people working. I got money back for 3 sandwiches that were supposed to be ready.and we left. They lost our business.

Stepped into your establishment for the 1st time and I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. I noticed upon entering there was NO human contact (sad). There was 4 kiosk’s with only 1 for cash. So at this point I’m assuming your pushing the digital currency and people with cash only have to wait till kiosk’s free up. I stood at front counter for 10 min. watching a manager cooking burgers and never looking my way or acknowledging my presence. Is this where the hospitality industry is now? You might as well replace the staff with robots and increase you profit margin and labor costs. Having worked in the food and beverage industry for many years this is a disappointing direction your company is heading. Will patron establishments with good old fashioned customer service.

I received several several coupons about a month ago for steak and shake I think I was the trash can of the post office receiving so many copies, so today I thought about going to shaking steak and get me a good breakfast this is what I saw this is the reason I tore up all those copies this is Warner Robins Georgia on Watson boulevard at 9:00 this morning this is I believe Monday the 9th 2023. Like to ask Mr Gus a question after going around your restaurant seeing this when you go inside and eat.

I ordered two meals online at 2:40 when I was on my lunch break because I told a friend that I would get her dinner for her birthday. I should have stuck to the original plan of Taco Bell. I get to the restaurant to get the food they can’t find my order. They finally find the order and ask me to pull up and wait for the food. Thirty minutes later I still didn’t have my food. I go inside to see what’s taking so long. As I’m walking in the door a worker…if you can call her that is coming out with my food. I look at the drinks and told her it was missing the coke. She went to get the coke and I realized my milkshake had whipped topping and a cherry on it. Not a big deal except I asked for no cherry or whipped topping. The thing goes back to remake the shake. It took about 10 minutes for it to bring the shake out to me. I take everything to my vehicle and the drink carrier’s handle breaks spilling a large Dr Pepper, coke, and milkshake in my car. At this point I’m so angry with them. I take the defective drink carrier back into the place and ask to see the supposed manager. I stand there 15 minutes waiting for the thing to come out. In this time I look for a corporate number so I can call and complain…the number that I found and called says the number is no longer a working number. Not surprised that they would change their number with the amount of complaints they are getting about everything. I finally had to call the place and ask for them to send her out. She..it whatever, finally comes out and gives me an attitude. She says it broke its not my fault. She’s lucky I didn’t have bail money or I would have gone after her. I will NEVER go back to Stake and Shake again. My grandmother loves this place but I won’t take her anymore. If I would’ve been possible to give a negative star rating I would have. The place deserves a negative 10 star rating.

Steak & Shake in Lexington & Winchester , as well as Mt.Sterling, Ky have absolutely turned me against steak & Shake. I used to enjoy the food , the atmosphere and the experience; the atmosphere is shot by ordering off kiosks, the menu is no longer special and unique, and the food is less than subpar. I order for the last time tonight a burger that fell apart ; bun and all , as soon as I picked it up.

I worked at steak and shake and due to my FIRST CALL OFF OF BEING uberly sick coming out of both ends I was taken off the schedule mind you like I said first call of . They also were getting inspected and were prompted to CLEAN the ceiling tiles the alpine location in Grand Rapids Mi proceeded to take down said tiles and spray paint them white .. yess spray paint then proceeded to tap test dry them and put them back over the food . I was supposed to be paid 15 was shorted a dollar on pay for me that’s no buggy but that’s just the topping to the Sunday . The managers can threaten you but if you even talk back to a manager they will fire you or take you off the SCHEDULE. Also a manager told me cooperates just a answering machine but I’ll be calling Monday

Came to Steak ‘n Shake in Arlington off Lamar and had the worst experience ever . The food looked very unacceptable and did not meet any customer satisfaction as all customers deserve. As I asked for manager she refused to speak with me when I requested and came to my table when she was available to come instead of taking the initiative to complete customer satisfaction and speak to us when we requested . As I spoke to her and asked for her managers info and asked who would I put a complaint into she smiled and said well my husband owns the store and she walked away as she did tell us that with a smile on her face . This behavior is totally unacceptable, especially coming from a “manager”

I worked for a steak n shake on indianapolis and I will never go back. I was repeatedly short hours on my checks, my pay wasn’t what it was suppose too be on the hour. I tried too call corporate several times and the only time I got a call back the human resource person pretty much called me a liar. I contacted the district manager several times, only got a call back once and he said he put in a manual check for me. I received the check today and it was no where near what I’m owed. He thought he could keep me quite with a petty little 10 hour check. I’m calling the labor board. This place is absolutely ridiculous and I do not recommend ANYONE work for this place EVER!!

My family went to steak n shake in Nicholasville, ky this evening. While the food was good I was shocked at the female employees with long hair that wasn’t put up at all. One was on the ice cream station and the other was in and out of the kitchen area. Another employee threw her coat on the prep area on top of packaging that was being used for food. I’ve always enjoyed steak n shake but this is just gross and not the proper way to work with food.

Finally came to window and said she took other people’s orders and for me to go to the back of the line and to go ahead and call corporate that she doesn’t give a fuck. I don’t appreciate that language or that direct hostility. I am very mad about this and I need this addressed now.

Hollo my name is Sharon Carter I live in Kankakee Illinois. I was at the steak N shake in Bradley Illinois trying to get my last meals of the day between 8 and 9 pm the manager and 3 of his workers was doing more talking than get the guests food prepared in a timely manner,alone with not get the order ahead of me right… and all they kept getting wrong was her shakes…. 3 times in a row poor lady had to keep coming back. But back to me as I asking them please fix my sandwiches all manager wanted to do is tell me he was fixing orders in front of me and that was only 1 and then mys. So once I commented on how they couldn’t get just a shakes order right the manager gets mad and say I’m not going to serve you as he was starting to fix my sandwiches and say (I’m the manager and I can chose not to serve you) at that point I lost it having been up sense 4am and now it’s 8 to9 pm don’t play with people that how things could go wrong…… this manager is not a manager but a little boy and needs to grow up and if you guys really care about your name sake(steak N shake) it would be best to your business if he wasn’t apart of your franchise and I’m sorry I even had to deal with such a child. This happened on Wednesday 8/24/22 all ended with both of us calling the police this manager is a sad piece of work …..just sad

Poplar Bluff location, Steve, said he’s a manager. He was had a condescending attitude the whole phone call, and he hung up on me.

That’s misleading and needs to be changed if you don’t have the proper containers to serve it the way it looks in the picture through the window. I’ve worked in customer service since I was 16, so I have NO patience for things like this, it’s unacceptable. Fix it. Thanks.

You went to Kiosks. I enjoyed sitting down, browsing The Menu, should I have this or that, Waiter, Waitress, what do you think? I knew the servers, had my favorites. I over tipped. You took socializing out of the dining experience. You took human experience. You pay servers less than the rest of the staff because they earn most of their money off tips. And, you taxe their sales to cover tax on tips. Rather than increase what you pay you eliminated their jobs. Now what’s the difference between you and McDonalds? What’s the difference between you and Culvers? At least you can order form a real human being in those fast food restaurants. What reason do I have to go to Steak and Shake again?

I’m outraged that I just wasted 30 min in the drive thru line ( no indoor service) at the Sunset Hills, MO restaurant to be told they don’t have Chilli-Mac noodles. You don’t have spaghetti noodles? Seriously?I left with no food but plenty of frustration & disappointment that a beloved & iconic restaurant has so rapidly failed ….An update; initially I sent the above an an email to the corporate office from my phone while sitting at the Five Guys across the the street from S’n’S, while waiting for my order to be cooked. Several days later I received a very terse message from Mercedes-Benz saying they don’t have anything to do with my lack of Chili- Mac noodles. I came back to this website clicked on the link for the email again, and sure enough, It links to Daimler-Benz! I really hope you’re not doing that on purpose.

There was a couple other people there and asked if they could eat in the store since they had to come in and order the employee said no the customers said goodbye, why have customers walk in just to use the kisok and then have to leave and not offer eveything ya’ll sell on the drive through?

The SnS in Clarksville, IN recently re-opened to in-dining. Looking forward to go to a favorite restaurant after being only drive-thru for so long, we were IMMENNSELY disappointed in the changes. Waiting in line so long, having to put in our own order on a complicated screen, pick up the order, get our drinks, clear the table. (One man there was actually helpful with ordering.) However, not having the prior table service was NOT what we expected. We might as well have gone to McDs, NOT very likely to go there again. Bad experience!

Frankly I can see why you have so many complaints. Seems to me that the same issues happen at nearly every location. I experienced what several other people have experienced and yet your corporate doesn’t even answer the phone. Frankly I think Sardar should rethink her business policies and expectations for employees. It’s clear to me that nobody cares.

I went to your store this evening located in Sunrise, Florida and as I was waiting to order my food at the drive thru window I noticed a ton of rats at the side door. I did let the cashier at the window know of this situation. Just thought someone at corporate needs to be aware as you are most likely losing business due to this infestation.

They should really start learning learning not to hire drug addicts at there Joplin MO location and maybe it would get more business. Even the “manager” was out there smoking Marijuana, maybe if she wasn’t busy out there she would have noticed the line waiting to pay.

We went to the Rockford east state location. Food was wrong,cheese burnt to wrapper and a piece of plastic in my chili 5ways. When called talked to Michael who said he was owner and he wasn’t sure if he was gonna give me a refund but if I brought my butt back to the store that is a ways from my house he’d think about it. Food was awful and I intend to report to health department and your owner/manager what ever he is needs some training will never go back there.

Went to your Marion, IL location today 8/20/21 @ 2:16pm. After putting in a complaint today about terrible service, the manager called me back… the same manager that did and said nothing when we were there. After I ended the call because the cashier that is extremely rude was shouting and laughing in the background the manager proceeds to call me again and I could tell she was mad… but at me. I let her know I could hear the girl in the background. Maybe train your managers to do callbacks when the employees are not making a joke of it. I see why this location doesn’t have a lot of business. Needs a staff clean out and need to clean that dirty place inside and out… I only can imagine what the inside looks like. Why call me back about my complaint if the same employees that I’m complaining about are now calling my phone laughing about it.

To the OWNER of Steak and Shake: About 10 yrs. Ago i took my grandson to a Steak and Shake in Gladstone Missouri. As a paying customer and trying to have special time with him. All tell you this . For a meal, we were there for almost an hour. Now it’s hard to keep a 5 yr. Old under control for that long. So i swore I’d never go back. 10 or so yrs later. My daughter was hired at the Liberty/Kansas city location to “Fix the store
After a few months. My daughter had cleaned the place up and CLEANED IT ALSO. She brought a few people with her, including her husband and mother, and at least one other person. Patricia Russo did exactly what she was hired to do! She cleaned the place up. Got rid of lazy employees, and started making more money for store.
So, owner, who’s name i only know as Paul. Transferred Patricia to his GLADSTONE MO. location to also bring that loosing store up to PARR! THAT’S THE STEAK AND SHAKE I TOOK MY GRANDSON TO 10 YEARS AGO. AND THE SERVICE WAS LESS THAN AVERAGE THEN!!!! SO,MY DAUGHTER just called and mentioned that the owner Paul, is trying to intimidate her because a lazy manager happens to be related i. Some way. He actually threw papers at my daughter. PAUL IS A DICK! Told to mind her own business more or less. So, after fixing one store, All the sudden, PAUL SAYS TO MY DAUGHTER, EITHER YOU’LL LEAVE THIS PERSON ALONE, OR QUIT!
SO, MY DAUGHTER THATS BEEN IN FOOD SERVICE SINCE 14YRS. OLD. Is going to let this guy Eat Shit!! Her crew has already left or going to leave soon at the Liberty store. THE STORE IN LIBRTY MISSOURI will go back to a shit hole. NOT TO SAY, SHE’S NOT GOING TO DO A FKING THING FOR THE GLADSTONE STORE. SO PAUL CAN FK OFF! BECAUSE HE’S A PIECE OF SHIT OWNER. AND THE COMPANY/ OWNERS OF STEAK AND SHAKE DESERVE BETTER. My daughter works her ASS OFF because she has the proper understand of WHAT IT TAKES TO SUCCEED. And maybe a little OCD LOL. BAMM! So, look at the numbers at Liberty Mo. Store. And Gladstone store. Patricia was in Liberty Mo. For about last 6 months. Now she’s at Gladstone Missouri. And told to NOT DO HER JOB!! WATCH THE NUMBERS. This owner can care less about service!! BAMM!! PATRICIA RUSSO CAN PLEASE HER CUSTOMERS AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES REPEAT CUSTOMERS. She’s always polite unless, you PISS HER OFF! SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE’S DOING AND SHE ALWAYS MAKE MORE MONEY FOR WHO SHE’S WORKING FOR. But, PAUL, would have a lawsuit or a caved in face if he treated me like he treated MY DAUGHTER!
I REALLY appreciate this opportunity to show STEAK AND SHAKE What kind of people run they’re FRANCHISES!. MY NAME IS: MARK HILBURN.

So apparently using coupons at the Steak Shake location on S. Emerson near Thompson Rd in Indianapolis is theft because that’s how I was treated by a so called manager that couldn’t run the store but he could run to the drive thru window after the cashier already cashed my coupon yet he ignorantly came behind her suspiciously trying to enter it again since he did take the time to see it was done already, no biggie right? No, not until he (told) me I took a screen shot of some one esles coupon that is already been used 🥴 as if I had nothing better to do than melt in the heat from a 25 minute wait, left finished my shopping and came back to wait at least another 25 minutes because they said they only had 2 people working yet and still he(refused to give his name) had time to argue at the window with a legit customer and didn’t even know what he was talking about, he basically accused me of stealing and ran like a child when I called his incompetent self out about it he assumed I’m young Black and on one but he doesn’t know me and if we both were to stereotype I’d say he looked like he’s done serious time before🤷‍♂️ , This store needs to be closed or maybe hire 5th graders that’ll do a better job. PS there’s no corporate assistance maybe that’s why these people do what they want ijs.

Went to Sunset Hills Steak n Shake (6/29/21) approximately 3:40 PM; order 1 triple cheese with fries, 1 double cheese with fries and a chili Mac. Paid almost 15.00. When I got home, I had three dried up chicken filets, 2 fries and a single cheeseburger plain. The manager said she could not help me unless I drove the 25 miles back

Drove 39 miles to take my grandchildren to Steak n Shake in Arlington, TX. Got to the drive thru window after waiting behind 4 cars only to be told they could not take my order because they had a large catering order. I asked to speak to the manager and she rudely told me they couldn’t take our order due to maintenance. She refused to give me her name and contact information to file a complaint. Then she yelled well what is your order? No thank you, you make no sense. First you cannot take my order then you aggressively asked what I wanted to order. Horrible customer service!

I am not here to comment on the food but on the inhumane treatment of employees. My grandson recently started working for the chain, had ill-fitting shoes and developed multiple severe blisters on his feet. He was told by a healthcare provider to stay off of his feet for two days. When he called in to the establishment he was told if he did not come to work he was fired. I nor any of my family will ever eat at a Steak & Shake!

I feel as if I was told that management wasn’t allowed to serve and collect tips as they already make more money than servers typically do. But at steak n shake Osage beach missouri they have a closing manager waiting tables which I feel as though it takes away from the other servers who don’t make management pay. I feel it’s unfair for someone to make twice as much as a server and get tips. Management shouldn’t be taking tables unless short staffed and even then they should just help the other servers get caught up. Am I wrong?

In Mansfield Ohio is the slowest Steak and Shake ever, but that’s not the worst of it. Since it’s a favorite of my grandkids we went there fairly often. Since the drive through is the only option now I was there last week. Spent an hour in the drive through line, then finally got my order, but no shakes, so after another 15 minutes ( while the food was getting cold) I went inside to see if they forgot about it. Well, I was screamed at by the employee that I had to go through the drive through like everyone else and when I tried to explain why I was there she continued to scream at me over and over and said they had 8 milkshakes to do so I’d just have to wait. Mind you, I’d ordered 2 burgers and fries and 2 milkshakes an hour previously. I’ve never been treated so horribly, and will never go there again. I called the manager the next day, and she knew exactly who the employee was, said she would have her boss call me. Well, no surprise, I never got a call.

Gainesville steak and shake was awful my hubby was short change $10.00. We went back to get the $10.00 . Register was pulled, not counted out front and customer were held in line behind us instead of pulling that clerk and manger tell us she would be with us shortly. I am a heart patient and so my pressure went up. Instead of the Manager coming out and nicely talking to us the girl who short change my hubby spoke to him. When i told her i wanted a refund i was ignored and twice one when i walk up too the drive through and when i went in and sat down was told Manager was looking at the tape.

Leesburg, Florida is horrible to say the least. Floors are filthy and the bathrooms always need attention. We went there tonight and had a coupon that said 99 cents for a side, with the purchase of ANY sandwich and fries. My husband ordered a triple steak burger and fries and asked for a cup a chili. The waitress said we could not use the coupon because the steak burger is NOT A SANDWICH!! What is it then? She said the coupon was very specific – what does any sandwich and fries really mean? We have used this kind of coupon this way before and never been told this. This is just so stupid. Since when is a hamburger not a sandwich? I think she was upset because she wanted to seat us in the sun and we asked for a booth that was not in the sun. This is a horrible place and we will not be going back.

Steak n Shake Frisco, TX A Sunday evening, the restaurant had about 20 patrons seated. I Stood and waited to be seated for at least 3 minutes, no placemats, no milkshakes, no lemons for water, no silverware, went up to pay the check, 2 waitress’s, 2 line cooks, totally ignored me, like I was invisible, I waited and waited, no acknowledgement that someone would be there soon. I finally spoke up to the cook and asked if he could get someone to the cash register, he then called someone from the back, a lady came out, took her gloves off and threw them in the trash, her actions were terrible, she was disgusted that she had to tend to the cash register. I voiced my complaint to her, she said she was sorry! Can you imagine … this was almost comical …. it will be a long time before I go back to a Steak n Shake!

We are so disappointed with the Steak and shake in Margate on state road 7. The cleanliness is offensive, the service is ineffective, we can have waited more than 10 minutes before we were asked what we wanted and then over 20 minutes to have my meal served just to realize that they made a mistake in our order. It is a true shame as my family and friends (talking 6 to 8 ) used to go to that there at least once or twice a week. We are Canadians and it was our pride and joy to bring our guests there for a meal not just because of the price was good but because the food was absolutely delicious. For the last couple of years there was a change in management and that is when the place deteriorated. They washroom are disgusting , not enough servers. I really would like to become a fan again is there anything you can do.
