Between long lines and worked-up toddlers, stamina is essential to endure a U-Village Shake Shack run—which may already be dwindling after Vuori staff made you feel like plebian trash for not owning a half-zip in the “salt” colorway. But satisfactory smashburgers, crispy chicken bites dunked in buttermilk ranch, and frozen custard milkshakes cure all shopping-related woes. You won’t find a better burger within the mall’s borders.
