OK, secret shame. I rarely allow myself this place, but they have great burgers (Tillamook cheeseburger) made with local foodstuffs. Reasonably priced, better than the $35 hamburger I once room-serviced at the Marriott Marquis in Manhattan. (don’t ask) If I ever wanted to completely go nuts, I’d do a Tillamook cheeseburger, onion rings, and a strawberry shake.

However, you can do just fine with a slightly healthier combo: a TCB, side salad (very well done), and bottle of water. Burgervill also does seasonal items, such as raspberry shakes, sweet potato fries, etc. Most are worth at least trying (my Mom is a huge fan of the sweet potato fries).

Tip: Plan a trip to Bullseye Resource Center around lunchtime, and you can come out on Powell, make a right and almost immediate left, and there’s a Burgerville drive-in. No wonder my glass bill is so high!
