The story

Bruce Zicari opened the first Cheeburger Cheeburger in Sanibel, Florida, in 1986. The restaurant was named after John Belushi's pronunciation of cheeseburger as "cheeburger" on a Saturday Night Live sketch at the fictitious Olympia Café.

The first international location opened in Kuwait but has since closed.

In November 2017, Cheeburger Cheeburger was acquired by Premier Restaurant Group.

In 2022, the original Cheeburger Cheeburger restaurant located on Sanibel Island was severely damaged by Hurricane Ian.

Several locations have closed in recent years. The chain has one location in Sanibel, Florida, and Richmond, Virginia.
