The first international chain opened in Kuwait, but has since closed.

There are 17 locations across the United States and one in Saudi Arabia.

In 2017, Cheeburger Cheeburger was acquired by Premier Restaurant Group.[1]

When Cheeburger Cheeburger opened a restaurant in Glenview, Illinois, they were sued by Billy Goat Tavern, which had served as the inspiration for the original Olympia Cafe Saturday Night Live parody. An out-of-court settlement was reached wherein the restaurant changed the name of the Glenview location to simply Cheeburger and agreed not to open another restaurant within 125 miles (200 km) of downtown Chicago.[2][3]
