In a recent feature, Food & Wine highlighted Burgerville as the best fast food option in Oregon, a title that may surprise newcomers to the beloved chain. Upon entering a typical Burgerville location, one might initially question the hype, as the restaurant’s aesthetic may seem outdated compared to more polished fast food establishments. However, the loyalty it inspires among Portland locals quickly becomes apparent.
While Burgerville offers the classic burgers and fries, it’s the unique seasonal menu items that set it apart. Customers rave about the marionberry milkshakes, made with local berries, and the fat, sweet onion rings crafted from Walla Walla onions—known for their exceptional flavor. Additionally, the restaurant serves tempura asparagus with garlic aioli, a true taste of Oregon’s springtime bounty.
