When NY-based burger and shake chain Shake Shack finally expanded to Massachusetts in March, the opening of its Chestnut Hill location caused maybe just a tiny bit of excitement. Soon, it'll be in Harvard Square too. Very soon.

On Friday, Boston.com reported via the Harvard Square Business Association that the opening could open "in a mere couple of weeks." A Shake Shack rep confirmed to Eater that it's almost time, with an official grand opening probably taking place in the first week of January. This weekend, the Shake Shack team handed out free hot chocolate in front of the soon-to-open restaurant, which is taking over the former OM space. There will be room for 108 burger-eaters to sit inside, and there might be outdoor seating as well.
