Are you looking to stop at Steak n’ Shake hoping to find some vegan options in 2025? Well, this answer may not be the best. While they have never offered a plant-based burger or non-dairy milkshake, you could at least get a side salad with modifications, fries, pasta with marinara sauce and baked beans.
It appears that Steak n’ Shake has reduced their menu, which is why you no longer see these items. And as of late February 2025, the frying oil which used to be vegetable oil is now beef tallow… aka the cow’s fat.
So, with that being said, what are you vegan options at Steak n’ Shake? Let’s see below.
