Yes, prayers have been answered, and fast food fans are shouting from the Twitter rooftops.

SHAKE SHACK IS COMING TO CANADA HOLY SHIT!!!!

The excitement is expected. Canadians have long called for the famous American chain to set up shop north of the US border.

People have even gone so far as to travel down south exclusively to get their hands on ShackBurgers, Bacon Cheese Fries, and Frozen Custard from the brand.

So, it’s no surprise that people are “disproportionately excited” about this news.

I am disproportionately excited about Shake Shack coming to Toronto.

Some have high expectations for the Canadian Shake Shack.

Canadian McDonald’s is better than American McDonald’s, our chick-fil-a is also better. This Canadian shake shack better rock my socks off.

While others are skeptical.

Shake Shack isn’t that great. I hate to be that guy, but the US chains that come to Canada don’t bring the same magic. Maybe it’s something in the air, but it’s not the same.

And one Twitter user is ready for the American franchise trifecta in Canada to be complete.

Toronto got Shake Shack and Chic Fil A now. Give us In&Out and I’m straight that’s the perfect amount of American assimilation

The original Shack opened in 2004 in NYC’s Madison Square Park, and now, the brand operates 440 locations.

This includes over 290 restaurants in 32 US States and the District of Columbia and over 150 international locations in London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Mexico City, Istanbul, Dubai, and more.

And this long list will soon include a flagship location in Toronto.

To prepare for the arrival, familiarize yourself with the most popular menu items at Shake Shack.
