We hope you're hungry, Portlandā€”becauseĀ the Mercury is presenting...

OUR BIGGEST PORTLAND BURGER WEEK EVAAARRRRRR!

Start salivating, because itā€™s time once again for humankindā€™s greatest celebration/accomplishment: The Mercury's Portland Burger Week! And this year, it's our BIGGEST Burger Week yet, because Portlanders have been feasting on delectable, original burgers from a record-breaking 88 LOCATIONS (!šŸ˜®!)... and if that wasnā€™t great enough, each of those burgers can be had for a mere $8! Even better? Many places are serving vegan/veg and GF options this year! Holy cats... this is looking to be the best Burger Week yet!

Ā (Thanks and a tip o' the hat to this year's fine Burger Week pals: Jim Beam and the Oregon Beef Council! Woot-woot!)

Go here to see pics and descriptions of all 88(!!) of this yearā€™s one-of-a-kind burger creations, and use our handy-dandy Burger Week Map to plot your tummy-pleasing journeyā€”but before you start planning the most delicious week of your life, keep a few things in mind:

Ā TIP!
And please, donā€™t be stingy! Burger Week takes a ton of workā€”especially from Portlandā€™s beloved servers, cooks, and bartenders! Let ā€™em know you appreciate it. With money.

BRANCH OUT!
Each Burger Week location has more than just fantastic burgersā€”youā€™ll also find excellent drinks and sides! Could you survive this week eating nothing but burgers? Uh... probably. But youā€™d miss out on other awesome stuff!

APPRECIATE OUR AWESOME BURGER WEEK PALS!
Without these fine folks, there wouldn't BE a Burger Week. Special thanks to the always delicious Jim Beam and the Oregon Beef Council!

RELAX!
Due to its official status as the Most Beloved Event on Planet Earthā„¢, Burger Week can get a little hectic. There will be linesā€”so if a place is too busy, just come back the next day, or run over to another Burger Week spot! (We mean... c'mon! There are 88 of 'em! You won't be able to throw a rock without hitting one!)
