MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes: Elevating the Better Burger Experience

Established in 2007 in Plano, Texas, MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes has distinguished itself in the fast-casual dining sector by offering high-quality, customizable burgers, hand-cut fries, and real ice cream shakes.

MOOYAH's menu features 100% Certified Angus Beef® burgers, all-natural turkey burgers, plant-based black bean veggie burgers, and all-beef hot dogs. Complementing these offerings are buns baked in-house daily and a variety of fresh, customizable toppings, allowing guests to tailor their meals to their preferences.

The commitment to quality extends to their hand-cut fries, prepared through a meticulous 24-hour, six-step process, and their signature shakes made with 100% real ice cream.
