A LITTLE HISTORY

The chain dates back to 1969 when what was then called The Hamburger Habit opened its doors on Hollister Avenue in Old Town Goleta. Some of his burgers may very well have been fired by a lanky, sandy-haired 16-year-old named Brent Reichard, who took a job as a cook there in 1976. A Dos Pueblos graduate, Reichard enrolled in Santa Barbara City College but left just a few semesters in when the owners of The Hamburger Habit sold the small fast-food joint to him and his brother, Bruce, who’d borrowed money from their mom to seal the deal.
