HELL YES! Shake Shack, one of NYC's best loved burger vendors since it first appeared in 2004, has announced that it's coming to London and will open its first UK premises in Covent Garden's historic Market Building in the summer next year...
"For years an enormous number of friends in London have asked us when we would bring our first restaurant to their home," said Danny Meyer, CEO of the Union Square Hospitality Group (USHG) which owns Shake Shack. "We've looked high and wide for just the right time and spot, and at last we've found it. We're positively in love with London's thriving food culture, and are humbled and excited to bring Shake Shack to the UK."
All of which means that soon us London folk can tuck in to this (photo by Karen Day) whenever we like next year.
High fives all round!

I wonder how Meatmarket will do with such strong competition in the area. interesting times.
I hope Five Guys is next...
@Richard - wow - you're like a burger prophet - Five Guys has just announced it's coming to the UK!
All we need now in In-N-Out and Umami Buger to join the club
Presumably Five Guys are coming to London too?
What great news that these two are setting up shop over here!
This is the best news I've heard all life
Yeah can't wait for it! I used to live near Madison Sq. Park and Shake Shack was a regular haunt. Even the Shroom burger is to DIE for.
