This chain is bringing breakfast, lunch and ‘boozie shakes’ to another KC-metro spot

St. Louis-based Shack Breakfast & Lunch, with three locations in Johnson County, now plans to open a restaurant in Lee’s Summit.

It is taking the former Big Whiskey’s American Restaurant & Bar building, at 860 N.W. Blue Parkway, in Summit Fair for an early June opening. The nearly 7,000-square-foot space will seat about 300 people. It also will have a roofed patio seating about 40.

The Shack entered the Kansas City market in mid-2018 with its first Overland Park location. It later added another Overland Park restaurant and one in Lenexa.

The menu includes breakfast banana splits, Belgian waffles, build-your-own omelets, skillets (such as The Kitchen Sink with ham, bacon, sausage, green and red pepper, mushrooms, onion and white cheddar), plates (such as country fried steak, gravy, hash browns and eggs), breakfast tacos, salads, wraps, Reuben sandwiches and veggie quesadillas.

It also has gluten-free items, wine, beer, signature cocktails and “Boozie Shakes.”

Hours will be 6:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. Breakfast is served all day, and lunch starts at 11 a.m.

It is looking to hire 30 people and will have a hiring event from 1 to 4:30 p.m. May 13-14 at its restaurant at 7940 W. 135th St. in Overland Park.
