I worked at the New York Hero House for 7 years! (I was doing other stuff too (like working and taking classes at UCSB), but who cares when you could stand up there, making hundreds of sandwiches, telling jokes & getting tips of "all kinds"!?) 77-78? Yup, I was there... But if you weren't getting a Melvin or an Eggplant Parmigian, or a Go-U-Mets delite, or a Verrazano Bridge, the Habit rule(d)(s)...it was still going strong in Goleta and at least one other place last I saw. I once ate a fully loaded Habit burger while driving thru Hope Ranch, double clutching my 3-on-the-wheel '65 Studebaker Lark and dripped......nothing!!! It was the proudest moment of my life...well up until then. If you like - and if I'm allowed to post a site - check out a few IV memories at interestingcharacters.blogspot.com Hey!

Their burgers, onion rings and cherry cokes were awesome. Like the New York Hero House, the place was a great resource, when dorm food was at its worst. Holy smokes -- that was the 77/78 school year!

I think the tacoburger and chili are on the menu to screw with the first timers (but hey, to each their own). Cheers, Ryan Aw man! – You missed a few things.

They called it a "bell beefer" and it was horrible, but what did I expect ordering a burger at Taco Bell? In my defense I was new in town (Isla Vista) and didn't know about any of the restaurants in town, such as Hamburger Habit, which remains my most-loved burger.

They were one of my comfort foods. There's another place on Euclid off the 91 in Anaheim that sells them but the bun isn't right.
