P’unk Burger Handing Out FREE Cake Shakes to Celebrate 2nd Birthday (Feb. 10)

P’unk Burger is celebrating its second birthday this Friday, February 10, by giving away a special limited edition Yards Chocolate Love Stout cake shake. Shakes will be FREE (with NO purchase required) from 5–7 p.m. Shakes will also be available for sale after Friday through February 14.

On Valentine’s Weekend in 2015, Marlo and Jason Dilks (also owners of SliCE) opened East Passyunk’s organic burger, fries and shake BYO. Thousands of burgers later, the couple are celebrating their second year in business by partnering with Sweet Box Cupcakes for this free boozy shake giveaway.

Customers will enjoy a free limited edition Yards Chocolate Love Stout milkshake featuring signature cupcakes from Sweet Box with Yards stout baked inside. The shake will be free Friday, but you can also purchase one through Tuesday, February 14.

“We love the decadent flavor profiles and top quality product that Gretchen at Sweet Box offers,” said Marlo Dilks. “After partnering on a shake last year, we wanted to work together again. This new collaboration brings together all of our families favorite flavors—with chocolate, fudge, sea salt, caramel, vanilla and locally made stout.”

P’unk Burger will also offer a Birthday Cake Shake option with buttercream, candy pieces and cake batter ice cream. This alcohol-free cake shake is perfect for kids.

Shakes are limited to one per person from 5–7 p.m. for dine-in only. During the celebration, all organic build-your-own beef burgers will be $5 each, and fries will be discounted to $1. All other items are $1 off during the party.

In addition to the Friday giveaway, P’unk Burger will also have other specials for Valentine’s Weekend, including special burgers and fries.

“Valentine’s Weekend holds a special place in our hearts,” said Marlo Dilks. “We opened our first SliCE the day after Valentine’s Day. So many years later, we opened P’unk Burger that same Valentine’s Weekend. We are so thankful to have amazing support from the community. This is our way of saying thanks. Come celebrate with us!”

Since opening, P’unk Burger has sold over 50,000 burgers, 20,000 shakes and 20,000 pounds of fries. Recently, P’unk Burger made news by expanding float and shake options to include dairy and nondairy ice cream from Franklin Fountain in Old City.

P’unk Burger is located at 1823 East Passyunk in Philadelphia; phone: (215) 468-PUNK.
