The Habit’s partnership with No Kid Hungry makes it extremely easy for customers to give back and support such an amazing cause.

 

Iwona Alter, Chief Brand Officer, of Habit Restaurants, LLC states: “We have been a proud partner of No Kid Hungry for many years, helping to provide close to 20 million meals to children in need through our partnership.* This latest campaign means so much to The Habit Burger Grill as combating childhood hunger is a cause we truly believe in. As a member of the restaurant industry, we are honored to help give kids the essential meals they need through our round-up program.”

 

“Since 2015, The Habit Burger Grill has shown its dedication and support to No Kid Hungry and helping end childhood hunger in America,” said Diana Hovey, Senior Vice President of Share Our Strength, the organization behind the No Kid Hungry campaign. “No child deserves to go hungry in the United States, yet 1 in 4 kids could face hunger this year because of the coronavirus. We’re so thankful for our continued partnership with The Habit Burger Grill that helps feed kids now and into the recovery to come.”

 

The Habit Burger Grill is known for giving back to their local communities in a variety of ways including previously hosting in-store fundraisers to support local schools. Most recently, The Habit Catering Trucks provided over 25,000 meals to frontline medical personnel. The Habit Burger Grill is leaning into their digital innovation to continue to give back during these challenging times, making it easier and safer than ever for their guests to participate in this amazing cause.

Restaurant Industry Calls on Americans to Join #TheGreatAmericanTakeout

Order Delivery or Pick-up on March 31 to Help Support Restaurant Workers

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (March 30, 2020) — A coalition of restaurants is asking Americans to participate in The Great American Takeout on Tuesday, March 31.

During The Great American Takeout, people are encouraged to order at least one delivery or pick-up meal to show support for the struggling restaurant community.

The coronavirus poses an existential threat to a sector of the economy that employs more than 15 million Americans. Because dine-in meals are no longer being served at most restaurants, delivery and pick-up are the only ways to support these struggling businesses. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration, there is little evidence that COVID-19 can be transmitted through food or packaging.

“This is no longer about the survival of individual restaurants,” said Russ Bendel, CEO of The Habit Burger Grill. “It’s about the future of our industry. And time has run out. Together, we must act to support each other and our communities in unprecedented ways.”

To participate in The Great American Takeout, Americans are being asked to:

1. Post on social media in advance of the event, encouraging friends and followers to take part in #thegreatamericantakeout.
2. Engage friends, family and colleagues to support their local restaurants by ordering takeout meals.
3. Order delivery or pick-up for at least one meal on 3/31, sharing photos on social media tagged with #thegreatamericantakeout.

After The Great American Takeout, Americans are encouraged to continue supporting local restaurants and industry employees by ordering takeout regularly throughout the weeks and months ahead.

Award-Winning Food
Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and still racking up accolades faster than you can say ‘Charburger with cheese, please’, The Habit was recently named Best Regional Fast Food in the USA Today 10Best Reader’s Choice Awards. Earlier this year, Thrillist called out The Habit as the top underrated burger chain that should be in every state.
At the center of The Habit’s menu is the signature Charburger, made with 100% fresh ground beef, grilled over an open flame, and topped with cheese, caramelized onions, pickles, fresh tomato slices, crisp lettuce and mayo served on a toasted bun. The Habit has been serving the best tasting burger in America exactly this way since 1969.
Better burgers are just the beginning at The Habit where the menu also includes fresh salads, handcrafted sandwiches including chargrilled line-caught, sushi grade ahi tuna, fresh chicken, and hand-filleted marinated sirloin steak, and sides including onion rings, sweet potato and French fries, and tempura green beans. Guests can choose from a variety of peppers, lemons, limes, and sauces at a complimentary condiment bar to customize the flavor of their meal.
