Anyone who gives this place less than 5 stars is nuts! Towson is lucky to have this spot, this is a California chain I went to for decades while living in LA. It's almost as good as In-N-Out which is considered the best place in the country. My only critique is the amount of salt on the fries, everything else is spot on. You want a great burger in Towson, this my go to place.

Although it was a Saturday the food took way too long. However, the employee who took the order was very polite and friendly. He went above and beyond and checked with us often to see if we needed anything and apologized for the wait. We all wanted his name so we could give him a shout out.His name is Kamal Archev. He should definitely be recognized.My name is Barb Berg.Parking: Even on a Saturday there was no problem with parking at lunch hour.

I was desperate for a good juicy takeout burger. . After an hour of waiting on Grubhub my food was finally delivered. Sure the char burger and fries were cold but it sure was tasty. The char burger was well seasoned with melty American cheese. The meat patty had lots of flavor. Looking forward to trying it in person at the establishment where the food will actually be hot.

I love cheeseburgers. Therefore, I love trying new hamburger chains. This one was pretty mediocre.I had the cheeseburger with avocado on it.. the Santa Fe... Santa Barbara... something, I think. The avocado was delicious. The burger was underseasoned and bland. There's only so much avocado can do!! The grilled onions were nice, but I'm going to need a lot more of those to make this sandwich taste like something more than soggy avocado toast. The fries could use some salt as well.Their nuggets are laughable. For that price you could get something more substantial. Did you know you can get 50 nuggets at wendys for like $15? The habit charges like a dollar per nuggets and you don't even get to choose a dipping sauce. You get barbecue sauce. Take it or leave it.I'm not going back. Neither should you
Average food nothing special stupid how if you order a meal and substitute the normal fries with sweet pot fries it's not a Meal would rather go to burger bros which is not far from the habit. (Was not impressed)

We LOVE cheeseburgers. We might live for cheeseburgers. Cheeseburgers make me happy. Cheeseburgers are a comfort food. I'm like the female Hamburgerlar. Jeremy is like Wimpy, Popeye's friend... Wanna be our friend? Make/buy us a cheeseburger. Wanna kidnap us? Paint "Free cheeseburgers" on the side of a panel van. So we finally tried The Habit. Towson is so crazy these days that I had been putting off trying The Habit because I wasn't sure that the parking situation would be worth it. I don't wanna have to pay for parking. This keeps me away from a lot of places in Towson. Jeremy and I lived in Towson about ten years ago, and the hatred for the meter-readers of that town, by everyone who lives and works there, is real. I was hugely, pleasantly surprised that The Habit has its own (well, it's a small strip mall) parking lot, and we were able to park right outside the restaurant for free - we had just come from Whole Foods where you have to get your parking validated, so it certainly did surprise me that I could park for free. The ordering kiosk is right by the door. We walked passed it, though discovered it before anyone had to point the way. I would not have been able to use it, if Jeremy wasn't there. It's too high for a person in a wheelchair to use, and my fingers aren't average, so I have a difficult time with touchscreens. 99.99% of customers will not have this issue, I know, but I feel that it's worth pointing out that these new kiosks and touchscreens make life more complicated for shorter/wheelchair-using customers. Yes, my anti-social, anxiety-ridden personality does appreciate being able to order food without having to talk to strangers, but if Jeremy hadn't been there I WOULD have had to order at the counter. Our table was sticky. There weren't a lot of choices for accessible seating. High top tables are awful and I wish they would all disappear. I'm not five-years-old. I don't get a thrill out of sitting places where my feet don't touch the floor, and I really don't know any adults who do. I had the Santa Barbara Char (Two freshly chargrilled beef patties, avocado, caramelized onions, American cheese, crisp lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo on grilled sourdough). It was very good. The avocado was perfectly ripe; creamy like butter and flavorful. The caramelized onions bring a nice bit of sweetness to the sandwich. I think my least favorite part of the burger was, well the burger. I know it's supposed to be char-broiled, but it still didn't have much flavor. I did appreciate that the meat was still slightly pink and not cooked to death, but the patties need some kind of additional seasoning. Maybe something as simple as salt. The same is true for the fries. They're a good texture, but need seasoning. Jeremy had the Double Char with Cheese (Two freshly chargrilled beef patties, caramelized onions, fresh tomato, pickles, mayo, and cheese on a toasted bun). We liked that there are jalapenos and pepperoncini peppers, available near the drink dispensers, to spruce up your sandwich. He also had "their sorry excuse for chicken nuggets." They're listed under sides, which I took as a bad sign. They're small, and Jeremy came back to the table with barbecue sauce to dip them in. That is not what he usually gets. He usually gets some sort of mustard as his dipping sauce. I cannot find anything about the choices online, so I have no idea what sauces ARE available. It was a fun, new adventure. Could have been cheaper - especially those nuggets. There isn't anything that stood out that would make me return, though.

Messed up order twice. No apology and was smirking when I was upset that the order was wrong again and that I wanted a refund. The girl and the guy at the front look to be high or something wrong with them and shouldn't be handling orders. There names I think was Jalen and Kayla. This is the second time we've come here and dealt with their behavior like this. We will never be back if this is what I we have to deal with.

The burgers are juicy and delicious. Lettuce wrap is a good thick amount that holds the burger or burgers and toppings well. The sweet potato and regular fries are the best in the area, the onion rings too.Parking: There is one handicap space. There is no handicap curb and the curb is to high for someone with a cane. Also there is no railing or something secure to hold onto.Kid-friendliness: Good
