Crafting high-quality Burgers & creating a World-Class guest experience Killer Burger is an oasis from the world, a food sanctuary that is dedicated to serving big, juicy, over-the-top hand-built burgers, each one topped with bacon and paired with a side of crispy fries. Only one thing can make these meals even better and that's a local cold craft beer. We don't just love burgers, we commit to the burger, and simply want to create the best burgers imaginable. Somebody's got to do it!
Killer Burger was founded by TJ Southard in 2010, when he opened the first location in Portland’s Hollywood District. As of August 2023, there are 22 locations in total. While the Salem restaurant our franchise's first, we plan to open at least 11 more over the next 5-years. With that said, we have numerous opportunities for advancement.
We use only the best ingredients to make our award-winning burgers. Each of the past 4-years, Portland & Vancouver consumers have voted us as the Best Burger in Town. Each burger features 100% beef 1/3-pound smash burgers topped with freshly cooked, crispy bacon. Our menu also features our signature Peanut Butter, Pickle, Bacon Burger. To top things off, add crispy made-to order fries and a cold beverage and you’re in Burger heaven.
