It's just a burger joint, not a 5 star restaurant..., 3/18/2010
Reviewer: Amanda
from Santa Barbara, CA
Chubbies burgers are the perfect hangover burger. No shortage of cheese, onions grilled perfectly, just enough lettuce and tomato and the epitome of the greasy burger that you know you crave every couple of months. The women who work behind the counter do seem like they hate every person that walks in the door, but guess what? They can make a mean burger, fries and milk shake! If you walk into a place like Chubbies w/ 4 parking spots and only 5 indoor tables expecting a fine dining experience you're guaranteed to be disappointed. Just grub and go. Oh, and guy who thinks that the women have a problem with men- don't be offended or take it personally. It's not men, they don't like anyone that walks in that door no matter what their gender. It's like the lady who makes the tortillas at SuperRica. She hates everyone too, but those are some mighty fine tortillas all the same!

Look at the profile pic of this place and, 3/5/2010
Reviewer: The Hammer

tell me what kind of 'service' you should expect to get. To me service means someone comes up to you and takes your order. If you go to a counter, give them your order and your money and they give you your food, then there is no real service to be had. End of story. If they mess up your order or you find a hair then they should make it right, otherwise sit down enjoy the burger and shake and go home. Until you spend a day behind said counter and see how it feels to deal with someone like you, stop your complaining.

A great and easy cheesy, 3/5/2010
Reviewer: Michael

First, I am trying to figure out how The Habit became the center of the Burger Universe as far as locals are concerned. Chubbies is a completely different burger people! There are different burgers in the world! If you need to compare (which means you are not reviewing, but instead comparing), then use In-n-out as the other side (fried over char). Now, Chubbies makes a great burger! I go there, not for the service, but for the food. Get a the burger and fries, grab the paper and chill outside. It can not be beat! Not by The Habit and not by In-n-out. Chubbies, local, tasty and inexpensive.

Hey, Kayla, I went there again today , 3/4/2010
Reviewer: Mike
from Santa Barbara, CA
Sorry, Kayla if you thought I had the attitude, think again. As the customer I expect friendly service. This I didn't get and never have here. Maybe the people that work here have a grudge against men.
I love the burgers and fries at Chubbies, that's why I came back. But the same gals and the same bad service prevail.

Don't look at the walls..., 2/19/2010
Reviewer: Tom
from Santa Barbara, CA
The burgers and fries are better than the Habit. The cleanliness is lacking as is the service. The walls are gross. Invest in some art to at least distract from all the grime. I thought I heard the lady grunt when I asked for some napkins, she certainly doesn't smile. Hey lady, turn that frown upside down and the burger will taste all that much better.

Good food, service, what service?, 1/8/2010
Reviewer: Andy
from Santa Barbara, CA
The food was great, fresh, hot, good tasting hamburgers at a reasonable price.
The people who work there, all included, were rude and acted like they disliked their jobs. No smiles, no courtesy, nada! Asking for anything was a chore. This is my second visit in the past three months and the lack of good service was consistent. If I owned Chubbies I would be paying close attention to how employees treat/interract with customers, good hamburgers are not that hard to find.

Underrated!
Reviewer: Spencer
from Santa Barbara, CA
Chubbies has been around forever but I still feel like it gets overlooked as one of the better burger joints in town. People are obsessed with places like In N Out and Hamburger Habit that they skip over this little place and they are missing out. I've been going to Chubbies for over 15 years and it's always been great. Delicious fries, great burgers.

Wow mike
Reviewer: Kayla
from Santa Barbara, CA
Food is great! Been eating there since I was a kid! Simple and just what you want. You go to chubbies to get a great burger and that's it. And wow mike, really? It's was that hard for you to get a burger without knowing Spanish? Highly doubtfull. Maybe a little nicer attitude will get you your sliced onion next time.

Hot, fresh, delicious and cheap
Reviewer: Mike
from Santa Barbara, CA
On par with the Habit but less expensive. The other thing is it all comes to you fresh and hot. I like the fries here better and it's a lot less hassle. Really good burger joint.

Very straightforward burger
Reviewer: Brian
from Santa Barbara, CA
Tried this place for the first time today. Ordered just the cheeseburger, no combo or fries. I am trying to judge burger joints just on the burger so I didn't want anything to skew my critique. The cheeseburger held together well and had a good burger taste. They don't offer many options; burger, cheeseburger, fries... They did ask if I wanted onions but there was no other option for add ons or condiments. They use mayonnaise, which is fine. Staff were a little stiff but they did their job fine. I would go back (as long as there is no line).

Best burger in SB!
Reviewer: Nicole
from Santa Barbara, CA
Hands down best burger in SB! I always enjoy my meals here! They get my order right every time. I don't see how they couldn't when they only serve a few things! It's simple, tasty and has a great price!

Ok food service
Reviewer: Glenn
from Buellton
Kind of close to a Goleta Habit or In N Out burger but not quite. They do grilled onions option like In N Out. I felt the bun was too small for the burger(got the double)and not as plumpy as an In N Out one and the meat tended to fall apart. The fries were what gave me the worst negative experience though, not good, In N Out makes the fries from potatoes fresh daily, these still had the freezer burn on them. No gloves on hands while making the burgers also will probably make me go elsewhere. Poor parking(park at Taco Bell), no drive thru. Other than that the burger was good(and inexpensive) and worth a try to compare with Habit and In N Out etc. Tasted closer to a Carls JR Six Dollar Burger to me(which are good). Food out fairly quick and employees nice. Limited menu options.
