The Habit Burger Grill started in Santa Barbara, California, and is known for its Charburger, cooked over an open flame. The menu also covers chargrilled chicken and fish sandwiches, salads, sides and hand-made shakes.
A Habit Burger order goes well when you pick the right burger style, add sides that travel well, and use the deal that fits your group. Most Habit deals are for pickup or app orders, so it pays to know how they work.
Picking a Charburger
The Charburger is the core of the Habit Burger menu. It comes with fresh lettuce, tomato, pickles, caramelized onions and mayo on a toasted bun.
The Double Charburger adds a second patty. The Santa Barbara Style swaps the bun for grilled sourdough and adds avocado, which suits anyone who wants something richer.
Teriyaki and other specialty Charburgers rotate in and out at Habit Burger. Check the current menu at your local grill.
Beyond burgers
The Habit Burger Grill also grills chicken sandwiches and a tuna filet sandwich. Salads with chargrilled chicken are a lighter choice for mixed groups.
A lettuce wrap option is usually available if you want to skip the bun. Ask at the counter or check the app.
The fish and chicken sandwiches are also chargrilled, so they share the smoky flavor of the Charburger. They are a good pick for anyone in the group who does not eat beef.
Some grills also offer a veggie burger. Check the current Habit Burger menu for your location before you plan around it.
Sides that travel well
Tempura green beans are a Habit Burger favorite. They come with a dipping sauce and are best eaten soon after they are made.
Fries and sweet potato fries are standard sides. Onion rings are also on the menu at many locations.
If you order for delivery, pick sides that hold heat. Tempura green beans lose their crunch on a long drive.
Shakes and drinks
Habit Burger shakes are made with ice cream and come in classic flavors, plus seasonal ones. Malts are an option at many grills.
Shakes are some of the more expensive items per order. A free shake code does the most for a family order with a shake for each person.
Charclub rewards and the app
The Habit runs a loyalty program called Charclub. Members earn rewards and get offers through the Habit Burger app.
Many Habit deals only work in the app or online. Sign in before you order so the offer applies.
Check the current Charclub terms, as rewards and point values change.
Ordering for a group
For a group, order through the Habit Burger app ahead of time. It saves a wait at the counter and makes group orders easier to check.
Split BOGO deals across two people with the same order. That way the free item is worth the most.
Customizing your order
The Habit Burger Grill cooks to order, so changes are easy. You can drop the onions, add cheese or bacon, or ask for extra pickles.
Adding avocado, bacon or an extra patty raises the price. Check the total in the Habit Burger app before you confirm.
If you have an allergy, check the Habit's allergen information and tell the staff. Shared grills and fryers mean cross-contact is possible.
Kids and family meals
The Habit Burger Grill has a kids' menu with smaller burgers and sides. It is the best value for young children.
For a family, order a mix of burgers and share large sides. Two sides of fries and one of tempura green beans often cover four people.
Family bundles appear at some Habit Burger locations. Check the app to see whether your grill offers one.
Where the Habit Burger savings are
The BOGO code is the best value for two people ordering burgers. Pick two items at the same price so the free one is worth the most.
The free shake code works well for a family or group order. A shake adds a lot to a Habit Burger bill, so it saves more than a free side.
The free side code is best for a solo meal. Add tempura green beans or sweet potato fries if the code allows.
Habit codes usually cannot be combined, and many are app or online only. Check the offer terms at checkout before you pay.
