Shake Shack first launched a drive-thru in Minnesota two years ago, and reports (like this one from FastCompany.com) say they've been quite successful in generating additional revenue for the burger chain.

"We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome the community to enjoy our quality ingredients, warm hospitality, and the convenience of New Jersey’s first drive-thru Shack," the company's Chief Development Officer, Andrew McCaughan, said.

To celebrate their grand opening, the first guests will receive custom Shake Shack cold cups and key chains. Plus, they'll donate $1 for every sandwich sold that day to Rutgers Gardens, they say.
