Ok, we have to confess the nice weather made us a little too optimistic. And psychic. We knew exactly what the rest of Manhattan was thinking when we came up with the harebrain idea of going to the Shake Shack because the rest of Manhattan was in line before us! We should have probably thought to check the Shack Shack Cam, but we didn't. Oops.
By the time we arrived at Madison Square Park, the line for burgers at the Shake Shack had wrapped all the way around the block. We were hungry, so we scrapped our plans and headed to nearby pub Stone Creek.Many thanks to the proprieters of Stone Creek for being flexible enough to accomodate us at the last minute. The pub has a great neighborhood feel, and we appreciate the service, attention, drinks and food.
Stone Creek is located at 140 E 27th Street. To get there, take the 6 to 28th Street and walk east.
