Steak ‘n Shake to give students more choice for late night grub

Jack Pilgrim

UK students will soon have yet another late-night dinner destination to choose from near campus.

Steak ‘n Shake is currently being built across the street from Noodles and Company and Pazzo’s at the new Limestone Park I Residence Hall, and is expected to be ready for students when they return back from summer break for the fall semester.

This new location will give North Campus the option of classic dinner-style burgers, fries and milkshakes.


Western Kentucky University recently built a Steak ‘n Shake on campus, which accepts meal plans, flex, plus, and normal payment options.

UK students said they are excited for the new meal option, and hope they are able to use meal swipes and flex dollars, as opposed to cash.

“As a student with unlimited meal swipes, I’m really hoping we’re able to use meal swipes at Steak ‘n Shake,” communication sciences and disorders freshman Hunter Harvey said. “Steak ‘n’ Shake was one of my go-to places at home, so I can’t wait to get another awesome option for lunch and dinner.”
