Cruise In Country Diner

Where to Find Bowls of Captivating Chili in Portland and Beyond - Eater Portland

"This cozy midcentury-style diner in Hillsboro is known for its burger and shakes, as well as a not-to-be-missed chili. Cruise In Country Diner does not skimp on the beef, which is grass-fed, and the sauce has a thick gravy-like consistency that will fill you up. The chili is also simmered with grilled onions, which balance out the acidity from the tomato-based sauce. The chili comes with crackers, and raw onions and cheese can be added for an additional charge. Available for indoor dining and takeout." - Maya MacEvoy
