I've always lov3d Habit since they opened. The burgers area always fresh and flavorful. Never dry. And the sides are always done right. Their lemonade are bomb! Staff are very friendly. The space is nice and clean the ones I've been to. Its a casual kinda place so I like that even though honestly I feel their burgers more on the gourmet vibe. read more

I received an order through DoorDash of a chicken Kabata sandwich, a side salad and a child's hamburger meal. What a disappointment . The sandwich was so hard. I was afraid I crack a tooth. The food was unimpressive . It was not fresh nor good. read more

Ordered through DoorDash and decided to try the Double Char with Cheese along with a sundae to satisfy my sweet tooth. Both tasted great, the burger was perfectly charred and flavorful, and the sundae was the ideal sweet finish! read more

Always pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at Habit. We ordered two Habit deals (half Santa Barbara, tempura edamame, drink, chicken bites) for $10/each and a grilled chicken sandwich. Used the promo for a kids meal (burger, small fries, drink). So fed grandma, parents, and two daughters for a little over $30. Was more than enough for us. Also shout out to John at the register. Super kind, great attitude, helpful, attentive, and competent. read more

First time here awhile back and didn't get to leave a review and no picture. Second time was with male crews and wasn't impressed as the first time with female crew during the weekday. Anyhow, tried again today and was very satisfied. The app gave me discount for items and additional to tasty protein style double charburger with mustard I couldn't resist. It was juicer than the Castro valley location. Extra pickles request was nicely accommodated. Love every single bites. Here they are my meal pic read more

Habit Burger & Grill - Burgers Near Me - Hayward, California

Another year another burger. I had been here twice in two weeks. Once I had to return my fish burger for false advertisement and it made me sick. The manager gave me some burger bucks to compensate for my experience. I came back to do a combo of my birthday burger and use the burger buck so that I could have a fully compensated meal. Elijah (I hope I remember his name correctly) was very knowledgeable of the coupon/rewards policy and corrected me politely. So I was like cool lets do two transactions and I'll pay the difference. The birthday burger comes with the purchase of drink. I was like cool can I get a milkshake. Clearly the register doesn't allow that. That doesn't make sense it is a drink that I was willing to pay for. Well I am not going to take it out on Elijah he didnt make the rules. So then I say fine I'll just get one of those drinks over there. He rings me up and then I do my second transaction for my green beans my absolute favorite. Like please never get rid of this item. And I am about to walk away and Elijah says since it's your birthday I'll make you a milkshake. How sweet! And it was legit my birth date like that's what I came in for. Idk who taught this guy customer service but he is the pure reason why I would come back. I then had to order another meal after multiple people order and my burger was being made. Elijah made sure that my food was made promptly within reason and I appreciate that so much. Elijah is the reason I would come back. He offered amazing customer service and gave me a special treat for my birthday! read more

The Habit is always tasty and reliable. Ordering online is key it makes the service way quicker and super convenient. Definitely one of my go-to spots. read more

I love a chargrilled burger and couldn't wait to try Habit burger. I'm a native Californian who's been in Georgia for many years but my family is still in the bay so on a visit home we went here and the best part of my meal was the shake it was delicious (strawberry) now the burger was just meh, I didn't taste the char at all! Burger King has a better smokiness and the onion rings were too crunchy and had been salted after cooking (no bueno) the fries weren't crispy at all and kind of soggy. The bun on the burger was too thick and cold and didn't compliment the burger at all. It was good to try but now I know I don't have to return. I'm a five guys girl and they say they're hard to top. I believe that at this point read more

It's been quite some time since I've been to Habit Burger & Grill. I always dine in because the food taste better when it's freshly made. I've also noticed that the flavor of the meat changes if you order to. Ordering has been made easy with the app and kiosk they have inside. Some of us do miss the customer service interaction. read more

Found out last min about their pre-grand opening and it was such a treat! We were welcomed by a very cheerful crew and some of the most kind and friendly staff. Everything was super delicious and fresh. I love how they also pay attention to make sure that extra produce really means extra bc some of the other locations seem to give the same amount. Our food was made exactly how we like it. This Habit is tucked away in a small lot. I almost missed it. It's got a small parking lot in front but a larger lot surrounding it. Located across the street from Safeway. read more

This new location is located within a new condo complex. Tucked inside this condo area is Habit & a soon to be Chipotle restaurant next door. With many staff members at hand. Service was great & ample pepper selections from pepperconi to jalapeño. They also have malt, bbq upon request, & ketchup to choose from. Orders: Ahi Tuna burger-lightly seared with a nice sesame bun. Didn't try it but the posted menu picture is accurate to what you get. Santa Barbara Burger on sourdough- grilled to perfection with a crispy sourdough crunch & added avocado for a creamy texture. Spicy Chicken Sandwich with coleslaw has a nice crispy kick but the coleslaw helped tame the heat. A great sandwich to get if you like a spicy sandwich. Fries were both thick & crispy. Habit doesn't disappoint! read more

Brand new burger spot in the new apartment complex on FootHill just outside the downtown portion of Hayward. Just a note - there's a Chipotle right next door.

This location didn't disappoint. read more

Habit Burger & Grill - Portabella Char with bacon/cheese - Burgers Near Me - Hayward, California

This place is still clean and new. It has convenient kiosks inside, but we prefer the convenience of ordering ahead on their website. Their customizations are relatively easy to navigate. Since this location opened up, we've had The Habit more times in the last 3 months than we have probably in the last 3 years despite them being right in Union City and Castro Valley! Typically, with chain restaurants, if you go enough, they're bound to let you down at least once - so far so good though! They have been pretty consistent and yummy every time so far. My recent favorite has been the Santa Barbara Char Sandwich on sourdough. We'll see if they can keep it up as the newness wears off. :) read more

One of the best burgers ever. We always get the tempura green beans when we order as well. Such a treat.

Juicy char burgers are my favorite. I love how they offer whole wheat buns as a substitute for white bread. Another type of customization I often get are unsalted fries. Additionally, I love the sauce bar and toppings offered such as banana peppers, jalapeños, and wedges of lime and lemon. Adding these flavors to your burger can truly elevate the experience and take an already tasty burger another level to be an outstanding burger. This location is new and in celebration, they offered freebies before their grand opening on Wednesday, August 9. The staff were friendly and offered amazing service. I'll be back! read more

New location opened closer to home. Service good as always, and food is great!Very clean and employees are courteous. Juan from Castro Valley hear now so that was good to see read more

Horrible customer service. I arrived at 9:30 PM only to be told I can't enter and order even though they clearly state on their website they don't close until 10 PM. I just wanted to get some food after a long day of work, and I felt very insulted. Would not come here again. read more

First time at Hayward Habit Burger and this location is about 1/2 as big as others and had some walk-ins as well as 3 of us sitting inside. It was very clean and had a sterile ambiance. The char-burger was good and I hope this is consistent. Signage is now posted and location more easily identified on Foothill Blvd. read more

First time going here, they've been open a month. I normally love habit but the bread on both our sandwich/burgers was pretty overcooked and very crunchy. The food also took a weirdly long time to come out considering we were the only ones there. BUT the kid working at the front, Kyle, was extremely sweet and hospitable. He took our order, repeated it back perfectly. He came out to the dining room and swept while we were eating, and he even came over to our table to ask how we were doing and if he could take any trash away for us. Keep in mind I noticed probably 8 other employees in there not doing much while he was working. This is the tiniest habit burger I've ever seen lol but it's got everything the bigger ones do. Tiny parking lot and you can't get directly into it from the main street, hopefully at some point they open it up from Foothill. Chipotle next door is still under construction! read more

Ordered a chicken club and they forgot to put on bacon on the sandwich, I was so disappointed because that one of the main items on a club.

Great food, service and ample parking. This location is less crowded then others but will probably start getting noticed when more retail opens in the New Luxury Lincoln Landing Apartments near downtown Hayward. read more

This was my first visit to this Habit (Currently, my favorite burger joint, since Fuddruckers left the area). I made an online, curbside order. Portobello Char, half/half fries and onion rings and the garlic cauliflower. The beef was tough, chewy and grisly! Even the color was that grayish/brown look- which I attribute to poor quality meats. Unlike other HBGrill burgers, this burger was so "stiff" it barely moved! In all of my previous experiences at other HBG, the meat was tasty, the burger looked almost handmade, and the sandwich was fluid. (Castro Valley, Union City, on the road, Las Vegas...). I was very disappointed. I dislike cheap, chewy, grisly, burgers- YUCK! On to the limp, tasteless cauliflower- a TOTAL disappointment! I reheated it in my toaster oven, added a bit of seasoning and made it tolerable. The half/half onion rings and reg fries were the saving grace- hot, tasty and the onions did not slide out of the rings! In all, this was my first truly disappointing Habit experience. In the future, I will return to my No. 1 in Castro Valley... Always consistently tasty food, clean restaurant and good service... I stay away during the RIGHT after-school hours... a bit noisy and busy... otherwise... thumbs up! read more

Aww cute! They had a balloon arch. Smaller establishment than most. But taste just like a typical habit burger. I hope they last awhile. Tiny parking lot because the gym takes up most of it. Hopefully the other establishments next door aren't too busy either. read more

Good fast food, but especially good at offering different things. I like their ahi tuna sandwich for example. Tempura green beans are good too. Shakes are delicious but common, right? read more

The chicken is paper thin but tasty. Kind of pricey for the product they serve. $5 for a milkshake

I can see why they location get a high ratings. Great service, friendly staff. Use to got CV but they been replaced

Tasty mushroom char burger, onion rings, fries and tempura green beans. Combo meal is a good value for a burger, fries and drink. I love their fresh made strawberry limeade style drink instead of soda. It has real bits of fruit and mint. I like the Santa Barbara burger because I love avocado. It's so expensive to add it and this comes with a decent amount of actual sliced fresh avocado and not some cheap prepackaged guacamole type spread cheaper places use instead. Since avocados are so perishable. This joint feels a bit healthier than the regular greasier chain stores and more substantial than In and Out read more
