Shake Shack Plans to Open in Wellesley Square

A growing chain of burger spots may be opening a new location in the western suburbs of Boston.

According to an article from The Swellesley Report, Shake Shack is looking to open in Wellesley Square, moving into the former GAP space on Central Street. The post mentions that the chain--which got its start in New York City--had been looking at the space last fall, though it wasn't known at the time if it would actually happen, but now they are submitting their plans to the town.

Shake Shack currently has 13 locations in Eastern Massachusetts, with the closest outlets to Wellesley being in Chestnut Hill and Dedham.

The address for the upcoming location of Shake Shack in Wellesley Square is 74 Central Street, Wellesley, MA, 02482. The website for the chain can be found at https://theswellesleyreport.com/
