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.

The brand began franchising the same year, rapidly expanding its footprint across the United States. As of 2024, MOOYAH operates approximately 90 locations, with the majority being franchise-owned.

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.
