The Habit Burger Grill (www.HabitBurger.com) brings its iconic fast-casual concept to Ashburn, Virginia as it opens its first Mid-Atlantic location on Saturday, December 5. A leading consumer magazine recently named The Habit Burger Grill the “Best Tasting Burger” in the nation out of 65 burger chains that were reviewed.
The Habit Burger Grill restaurant will be located in the Ashburn’s Belmont Chase Commons, 19855 Belmont Chase Drive, less than a half-mile from INOVA Loudoun Hospital and next to Belmont Chase Country Club.

The Ashburn, VA location is the first of several planned for the Metropolitan Washington DC area.
Ashburn’s Habit Burger Grill is in a 2,700 square-foot space accommodating a total of 86 guests including indoor and patio seating. Approximately 45 new jobs have been created to staff the restaurant.
The public will get a preview of The Habit’s menu on Thursday, December 3 from 5 until 7 PM when the restaurant will conduct a fundraising event benefitting The Stonebridge High School Booster Club. During that time one-hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated to the school.
