So yummy. The burgers are juicy and so flavorful. Cow fries are a great compliment. Good choice of drinks. Great in walking for downtown Gresham.
Dan Malinaric
The food is good. The burgers are good and the fries are awesome. Friendly staff. Comfortable setting in downtown Gresham. My go to is make your own cheese burger with sautéed onions, guacamole, bacon and fried egg. Service is a little slow. Always crowded. Good for lunch or casual dinner.

A really great burger restaurant with some fun options to go along with it. Good selection of beer on tap along with other drink options and lots of sides and delicious sounding entrees to choose from. The waitress who is working when there was super friendly and made sure that she was giving her time to all the customers and not just the table of her friends. Outside of having drive out to Gresham its an amazing restaurant. Went with my daughter and my mother who also enjoyed their food, my daughter got just a basic cheeseburger and she is convinced its probably better than her mothers, and my mom got their fun Hawaiian sounding burger I think its called the 503, and she really enjoyed it a lot. The fries are really good and seasoned nicely. Would have given 5 stars on the atmosphere unfortunately though even though the tables are clean and the floor is clean, the way the decorations are gives it a bit of a dirty feel in there. It is not dirty in there its very clean and they have a wonderful atmosphere unfortunately because of the second hand quality of the decor it does give it that feel of being dirty. Vegetarian options: They have a great vegetarian option, not sure its vegan since it looks like they only have one grill and they cook all the patties on it. Parking: Its in the middle of downtown Gresham and for some reason they went with super tiny streets and you will have to spend some time driving around find a place to park. But thats not to be held against the restaurant.

Probably the restaurant weve visited most in the Portland metro. A reliably good, comfy burger joint. Solid collection of delicious burgers (I usually get the moo melt or the Pendleton, but the Hawaiian also hits), great fries (get them cow style!). Manageable size menu, the burgers have nice options, including impossible patties and any burger as a (huge!) salad. Kids menu. Good tap list which changes frequently. Service is always quick, friendly, and understanding of small kids. Vegetarian options: Impossible patties available, vegetarian salads and apps. Dietary restrictions: Burgers as entree salads works surprisingly well Kid-friendliness: Kids menu, coloring books, staff are friendly to kids, beware of the neighboring candy and ice cream shop

Stop scrolling and just go here! Best burger in my life (seriously, try the jala-moo-ya) also sub your side for their cow fries, you ll thank me later! (; And consider yourself lucky if you get Ariel as a server, she was the absolute sweetest and best server we ve had in a long time. Everything was so fresh and clearly such good quality ingredients! The beer selection is local and were super delicious as well- This is definitely our new burger spot!

Talk about awesome... I loved this place. I really could not find anything that they did not do right. It is in a store front in the quaint downtown area. The service was really good and super friendly. The blue cheese burger ROCKED and the truffle frys were awesome. Got to love the fry sauce. Definitely, worth a visit..

This is such a great burger spot!! The server we had, shout out to Katie K, was extremely friendly and attentive. The burger I had was delicious, I had the Fort Stevens with bacon, bleu cheese, mushrooms, and truffle aioli *chefs kiss* I also had the cow fries with my burger and some fried zucchini to start. With a refreshing strawberry lemonade to wash it all down. Everything was so good and came out quickly. I would highly recommend the Local Cow if looking for a good burger in the area!!
Will
Amazing! The servers are all very friendly and kind. I usually order the monthly special because 9/10 times they are great. Tonight I ordered the Cowlin vs Moo-Tang. It was probably the best burger Ive had in 40 years of life. *Tip: Upgrade to the Cow or Cajun Fries.

Got here early, so was able to get good seats. Street parking, City of Gresham has public parking lot two blocks from The Local Cow. A very relaxed atmosphere with a great wait staff. It shares a door with neighboring restaurant. Seating is limited and when it gets busy, there can be a wait. Outdoor seating is available during nice weather and you can people watch. Food is very good, wide variety of options. The fries are yummy, I prefer the regular fries, but The Local Cow fries with garlic and crumbles is very good too. Good burgers, tasty and full of flavor. Toppings are standard but you can request other toppings too. I enjoy eating at this establishment, highly recommend. One of the restaurants helping to place quaint Downtown on the foodie map.
