    And a stroll down memory lane and boy do I miss the Steak n Shake location in Lynchburg! My absolute favorite was the Garlic Double Steak Burger hands down and I believe you could get your fries with select seasonings and would get them Cajun style or either plain and add tons and tons of that fry seasoning that stuff was the cream of the crop when it came to seasonings! Thank you friends for sharing this and taking me down memory lane! Y'all rock as always!

    I have always loved some Steak N Shake. It is kind of sad to see some of the stores close. They started in Illinois not far from where I grew up. I remember back in the 60s Steak N Shake in Danville, Illinois was the high dollar burger place. It is or was very good. I do like it better before the pandemic when they waited on you at the table and served your food on china plates.
    I am glad the burgers still taste good.

      According to Google Steak 'n Shake is in 33 states and there are 185 international locations. We have 4 in Virginia (none near me). I did see that Texas does have some too, including a 24 hour Steak 'n Shake in Midland. Looks like they are mostly concentrated around the Dallas area. I had to look up how many there were after so many people told me they didn't have one or the one near them closed.
      Hoping you run across a Steak 'n Shake or they open one near you. So you can try them. Have a great day! 😃

    After watching a lot of reviews on UA-cam, including your great review I wish I had tried Steam n Shake before they closed down in the Pittsburgh area All three of your meals looked fantastic and the prices were very reasonable. Like the skinny fries as long as there hot and crispy. David's onion rings were a good upcharge for 1.99. Plenty of them and looked golden brown and crispy. When you showed the menu at the beginning, I noticed they had a large variety of shakes, Carly seemed to enjoy her's. Hope someday I'm near a Steak n Shake so I can try one. Thanks again for the great video and God Bless🙏🇺🇸

      I've always liked Steak 'n Shake. We first tried it when traveling to Florida. The food has never disappointed. The only issue we have ever had is with the service. However on the night we went here the service was good. We got our food shortly after ordering. The skinny fries are great. But you are right you want them hot.
      They have great shakes and lots of flavors. I thought my meal for $5.99 was definitely a good deal. David said next time he would get what I got instead of the combo with the drink because it was such a good deal. Of course he will upgrade to onion rings. lol
      Hopefully you will get to try a Steak 'n Shake soon. God Bless.

    Steak n Shake has always had some of the best burgers around and I go to mine in Rolla Mo. quite often, and they always have a good variety of different types of burgers as you can see by the menu - not just the usual three/four like Burger King/ McD's! If ya'll ever see a Jack in the Box stop in and do a review, they're also good about having a good variety of things on their menu - their egg rolls are literally the best egg rolls you'll ever eat.

    I agree with David's closing comments. Unfortunately, when the "wage bill" of a business is its biggest expense, you can be assured that the business will do everything it can to reduce it. "Wage bill" is more than just what the employee is actually paid. Add in employment-related taxes and benefits and you can quickly have employees being paid more than their economic value. I hate being political, but this is what you get when you have political candidates promising their loyal voters the moon, the stars, and the eleven planets if they get into office. Regarding the kiosks, think about how many fewer workers that restaurant has as a result of the individual employee costs being so high. Think for a moment about the people willing to work who are unemployed as a result. Sorry for the soapbox. As for the review, you made me miss Steak ;n' Shake all the more! Their food has always been first-rate. The food and their hours have made them a longtime legend among railfans. Next time I'm in PF, I'm stopping here! And David... One night years ago when I was in Dallas on business, I went with some friends to supper at a rather upscale steakhouse. First, you got to choose your steak from a variety of raw cuts presented to you. And, then you did have to cook it yourself! Alas, I don't recall the name of it now. But, it was within sight of the studios of WFAA-TV. This was decades ago. And, when engineers are in a group at dinner/supper, the youngest gets to be the Designated Driver. And, I was the second eldest. Great review. (As usual...! ) Hang in there! And, God Bless!

    • @vafunseekers

      The benefits that an employer has to pay can be very expensive for an employer. If you think just about health insurance costs, it's a lot. I have heard of restaurants like that before where you cook your own meat. Of course if you go to fondue you cook your own meat there too and fix your own meal once they place the different pots in front of you. Of course you are going to those types of places for that experience.
      Our local McDonalds has a kiosk but they also have a crew member there to take your order if you prefer. Thanks for watching!
