8 Charburgers From Habit Burger & Grill Ranked By Flavor

Habit Burger & Grill does not just make burgers – it builds chargrilled cravings with very different personalities. Some go big on smoke, sauce, and crunch, while others keep the spotlight on beef and cheese.

If you have ever stared at the menu wondering which charburger actually delivers the most flavor, this ranking cuts through the guesswork. Here is how the chain’s most popular charburgers stack up from most delicious to most basic.

1. BBQ Bacon Char

If you want the boldest bite on the menu, this is the one I would point you toward first. The BBQ Bacon Char piles smoky bacon, sweet barbecue sauce, melted cheese, and crunchy onion tanglers onto a chargrilled patty that already brings plenty of flavor.

Every bite feels loud in the best way, with salty, sweet, smoky, and crispy notes all competing for attention. It is not the most subtle burger, but that is exactly why it wins this ranking.

You taste something exciting from start to finish, and it never fades into the background.

2. Portabella Char

The Portabella Char tastes like Habit took a burger and gave it a steakhouse upgrade. The mushrooms add deep, earthy savoriness, while the roasted garlic aioli brings a creamy richness that makes the whole sandwich feel fuller and more indulgent.

I like how it delivers big flavor without depending on extra patties or extreme toppings. Instead, it leans into a dark, savory profile that feels a little more grown up than the average fast casual burger.

If you love mushroom burgers, this one is easy to crave because it tastes substantial, juicy, and balanced from the first bite to the last.

3. Santa Barbara Char

The Santa Barbara Char feels like a burger and a grilled sandwich met in California and decided to show off. Grilled sourdough changes the whole experience, giving each bite a buttery, toasted edge that works beautifully with avocado and the double patties.

This one is rich, filling, and messy in a way that usually means you picked the right order. The flavor is bigger than a standard cheeseburger, but it still feels coordinated instead of chaotic.

I would rank it slightly below the top two only because the sourdough makes it more specific than universally craveable, not less delicious.

4. Double Char with Cheese

When you want the purest upgrade to Habit’s signature flavor, Double Char with Cheese is a great call. Two patties intensify the smoky chargrilled beef taste, and the cheese smooths everything out so the burger feels fuller, richer, and more satisfying.

There is nothing flashy here, which is part of its appeal. It does not distract you with sweet sauce or trendy extras, and sometimes that directness is exactly what hits.

I would order this when the craving is specifically for beef and melted cheese turned up a notch, because it delivers classic burger comfort with more depth and heft.

5. Charburger with Cheese

The Charburger with Cheese is the baseline burger that proves Habit knows what it is doing. Cheese adds a layer of creamy richness that helps the chargrilled patty, caramelized onion, and fresh toppings come together without any one part taking over.

I like this burger because it tastes complete, not plain. It does not try to impress you with excess, yet it rarely feels lacking either.

In a ranking based on flavor, it lands in the middle because several bigger builds create more excitement, but this is still one of the safest and most consistently enjoyable choices if you want a straightforward, satisfying Habit experience.

6. Teriyaki Char

The Teriyaki Char is the wildcard of the group, and that is both its strength and its limitation. Grilled pineapple and teriyaki sauce give it a sweet, tangy profile that feels playful and different from Habit’s more classic charburger lineup.

When you are in the mood for that flavor combination, it can really hit. The problem is that it is more of a specific craving than an everyday favorite, especially if you prefer your burgers savory first.

I enjoy the contrast between smoky beef and sweet glaze, but compared with the richer or beefier options above it, this one feels a little less universally satisfying and a little more niche.

7. Double Char

The Double Char keeps the focus on beef, and there is something admirable about that simplicity. Two patties give you plenty of smoky char flavor, so if you care most about tasting the meat itself, this burger absolutely has an audience.

Still, leaving off the cheese makes the whole thing feel less rounded than it could be. It is not bad at all, but compared with the cheesy version, it can come across a little drier and less cohesive.

I would never call it boring, yet in a lineup full of stronger finishing touches, this one feels more like a solid base than a fully optimized flavor build.

8. Charburger

The plain Charburger gives you the cleanest read on Habit’s core burger profile. You get the chargrilled patty, fresh toppings, and caramelized onion without cheese or specialty sauces stepping in to reshape the flavor.

That simplicity has value, especially if you want something lighter or more classic. But in a ranking that is strictly about flavor impact, this one naturally lands last because the other versions build on the same foundation and improve it.

I still think it is a respectable burger, just not the one I would choose if the goal is maximum excitement, richness, or texture from every bite you take.
