Annie's

They serve HUGE burgers and LOTS of tater tots with their $15 lunch specials. Even though the place seems a little run down from the outside, once you enter the old A-frame building it's like taking a trip into the past. The food is hot and fresh and served directly to your table with a large bottle of ketchup! Plus extra napkins b/c you are going to need them. This place is a hidden gem 💎 in Gresham! They'll only charge you $15 but give them $20, it's worth it.

Adorable little greasy spoon/old school diner spot specializing in burgers & fries. We each got a different burger and they were all delicious. I liked the curly fries better than the regular fries but everyone I was with liked them both the same. The onion rings were crunchy and tasty. The best part about this place is the price! Lunch for three of us was less than $25 which is cheaper than some drive thru fast food! I would definitely recommend trying this place out if you haven’t been here before!

A great burger and great price in the photo is the little John combo comes with burger fries and a drink. (On the burger there is bacon, ham, fried egg, burger sauce lettuce and tomato) $12.05 for all that! Also the fries look like in and out but taste way better! 10/10 would come back. Also bonus on my way out I talked with a gentleman that left the same time as me and asked if he was local and if he goes there often he said he lives in southern Oregon but when ever he is in the area he always goes here a testament to its quality and taste.

First time yesterday, ordered in. Had the coney island burger which was nearly tasteless, and the medium fries, while ample, had a hair near the bottom of basket. Dirty sticky table, flies buzzing around. The parse 50's nostalgia saves it half a star at most. Price is good, but will not be visiting again.

If you are looking for a 50s drive-in culinary experience, Annie’s is worth your time and money. This is not a drive-in however so you must either phone ahead or order upon your arrival. I am not too sure of the significance of the weiner dog ( probably has to do with the fact that they sell hot dogs ) but I love it! I got a little Chaweenie myself so I took it as a sign (he was very fond of the fries)! I didn’t have to wait for my food long even though they were very busy which is unusual for the time of day I went in (3pm). The decor is striking and the food is delicious. Show is their Jalapeño burger and fries. Both took me right back to the 60s! They make their own dipping sauces which are totally yummy! Prices are reasonable, food is good! Worth the trip!

geniuenly one of the cutest little diners ever🥹 i love it the food is so yummy, the workers are very polite, and the feel of the diner is so old school i miss when all diners were like this! i feel as though it could use a little more spark but its so cute regardless

This place has fantastic burgers. Eat your fries first because once they've cooled, they're not great. The overall building inside and out has seen better days. The employees were polite and professional. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy a good burger.

It's definitely a must try and it's worth the money especially in this economy their prices are reasonable to the point you'll want something extra. Good, quick, and friendly service.

good food good prices poor service vary tired old building. At least for me the guy doing the cooking also did the service. the guy out front was just playing on his computer.

Their food is great, customer service is great, their decor is cute! Yes, it's outdated but it's somewhat nostalgic. Glad my husband and I gave this place a try! We'll definitely be back!

Annie's is always great. Very friendly owner preparing good burgers and excellent fry's. Between "Jim Dandy's" and Annie's, there very similar,but like the fry's better at Annie's. Both places are head and shoulders above "Mikes". Prices are much less, than Mikes. And I do know the food is prepared fresh with toasted buns. I've never had to wait while they serviced the drive up like at Mikes!

Annie's does a really nice old-fashioned mom-and-pop sort of burger. Very, very tasty! Among other things on the menu, they offer a Coney dog-the sauce is very hot (not spicy) and delicious. The decor was inherited from a previous owner, and it's pretty tired, but it's the food that counts. It's run by two people, and the service is hit or miss- sometimes they are friendly, but I have left twice without being acknowledged.

Speak of an underrated restaurant. After five years of passing by this place someone suggested we try it and let me tell you it was worth it. I ordered the farmer John burger and I was impressed. We will be back to try more items on the menu but for our first try we enjoyed it.

A classic cruising spot for over 50+ years and still standing. Not as big as I remember them, but the spirit is still there. Gotta get a Coney Isoand dog definitely. The area isn't a place I frequent, but parking is there and they even offer drive-thru service. The music inside is, of course, the golden oldies! If you're craving messing and just down to goodness food, this is it. Don't let the location and look fool you either.

First time in Portland OR , my cousins lived nearby Annie's and supposedly they were good , so me and my bf had to come check it out , there burgers were ok overall ..onion rings were ok as well .

What happened? Coney dog but forgot the sauce? Very disappointed

Fantastic and super yummy food!!!! You must go if you haven't tried it!!!!! Their burgers, hotdogs, corndogs & all their yummy sides!!!!!!

If you are craving a hot dog and aren't sure where to go then Annie's is the spot! Got a small coney, an Annie's dog and a Chicago dog and all 3 hit the spot. Gf also got the coney fries and confirmed they slapped. Great prices as well

I honestly can't say much about this place other than when my wife and I walked in here I thought we had walked into a Roake's restaurant...which, lo and behold, after some research, it use to be one at some point but changed owners and name. The menu is pretty much a replication of what Roake's current menu offers with small deviations such as combo orders, slight different appetizer items, and some of the cooked items to create an originality feel for Annie's as a stand alone establishment. Other than that, Annie's falls right under the Roake's shadow, in my opinion. From the decor, fresh cut fries, to the extra cost for side dipping bottled condiments other than ketchup and mustard. And now...the real review. So, between my wife and I, we ordered the Annie's Dog combo and Wimpy's medium combo. The price tag ran about $17. The wife really liked the Annie's dog. The Wimpy burger was good. However, like Roake's, not a big fan of the fresh cut fries. Extremely greasy, never crunchy, and they get cold QUICK. Threw most of them away. The service was ok. I believe was the owner that took order. He got the job done but don't expect friendliness. Cut to the chase and bring the order to the table. I get the fact that a lot of people come here for the "Coney" style which personally I'm not a big fan of but for a burger place, it's ok. There's plenty of places to go to for a better price, service, and originality. If you want "Coney" based, come here....or Roake's first.

This place is a good. The burgers "the whimpy burger" is really good. Known the owner since he took over the place. Really great and friendly guy. Never had a bad burger or Coney dog. Don't forget the Coney dog.

Just what I've been searching for, a great burger ! Service is prompt, food is great.

I said NO MUSTARD, I am allergic!!! I literally vomited once I bit into my hot dog. (And I couldn't tell because they hid it under all the toppings) Rude staff and very slow. The onion rings are the only reason I'm giving this place one star.

What can I say, cheap and decent cheeseburgers. Get a double, or else you will still be hungry. The Coney fries were disgusting! But...Waffles fries are a must! .25 for a soda refill?! Seriously?

Had a craving for burger and fries. Decided to check out Annie's. Burger was typical fast food quality. The fries, on the other hand, were the most pathetic soggy mess of fries I have had anywhere. I am going the forego telling about the drive through debacle. 2 stars for the edible burger. Zero for the fries.

I have driven by the place and I was curious as to what's the menu like and how's the food? Today is the day that I found out. I tried a double cheeseburger combo with a large beverage and I was amazed. I found the burger prepared the way that I wanted it with all the right toppings and sauces and it came that way. The meat was moist and done right. And then there were the fries! Wow! I could not eat all of them! I found the food to be great, but, I had an issue with no lids for the beverages, this might be a problem with to go orders and spillage, but, it may be okay as the restaurant is getting away from plastic straws. It is a small place and looks divey on the outside, but, you will not be let down with the food.

Toss up between 2 and 3 stars. We are still trying hard to support local rather than the chains. I ordered the double burger, add bacon, to go. I live close by so the burger was still hot enough when I got home. And I ate a good burger exactly how I was expecting it to taste. Zero food complaints. However, the front of house is disgustingly filthy. Had I noticed that before I ordered, I would have left to go elsewhere. It they clearly have made no attempts to clean anything in a long time. As well as cosmetic repairs. The guy taking orders spends his free time messing with his phone. The ice cream machine has dirty streaks running down the front. As much as we want to support them, I doubt I will ever go back. There are too many other choices.

The owners of this place, a man and his son, seem to hate their jobs. There are so many things that could be done to make this place amazing, but it starts with customer service, and these two are rude and do not give a shit. The hot dogs are made of the cheapest, crap pseudo-beef I've ever had. They are like rubber. The coney sauce clearly comes from a can, and even though they advertise a Chicago style hot dog, they are clueless as to what that actually means. I won't go any further because the people who run this place do not care. I'd love to buy this restaurant and take it off their hands, turning it into a REAL Chicago beef and dog shack. But for now, it's about as exciting as visiting the morgue, and it doesn't seem to taste much better.

The burgers are decent. My boyfriend got the Farmer John and it was tasty. However the Coney sauce was terrible and the fries were white, limp, chalky and unsalted. We threw the fries in the trash.

Annie's is always very good and I'd like that I can order it to go on the phone and then pull around back and pick it up it is still just as good as the first day I've ever tried it there Coney sauce is fantastic and their fries are very good

Trust the bad reviews, this place was awful. I gave it the benefit of the doubt from the few good reviews but wish we hadn't wasted our time (and money!) We should've known as soon as we walked in & it smelled awful. First we were given our shake which tasted like a cheap ice cream sandwich aka: fake freezer burnt ice cream. Then the rest of our food came and was mostly inedible. Both my husband & I took one bite of French fry & looked at each other with disgust. Cold, greasy, limp & stale. Our large basket of fries went completely uneaten. My kids' hot dogs were pale & literally had plastic on the ends from the sausage wrapper. My burger bun was dry & hard, the burger itself tasted awful. I took two bites & couldn't stomach any more. My husband choked down most of his, despite the brown grease & juices from the mushrooms that turned most of his burger bun brown. We would never return & trust the bad reviews are not a fluke!

What a mixed bag of reviews! Clearly, you either love it or you hate it. I have been going here on an off for nearly 20 years and nothing has changed. It's my favorite cheap burger spot in town. I can easily feed my family of 3 for under $20. We often end up spending more on taco bell... I saw one reviewer state their full basket meal was worth $4.15. Do you live in a different economy than the rest of us? Not sure what people expect. The primary complaint seems to be customer service. To my knowledge, the same man has owned the place for the entire time I've patronized it. He has always been friendly and efficient. This isn't a sit down table service establishment after all. They do bring your food out to you though, which is nice. His son has been working there for the past few years and I have always enjoyed our interactions. I am also not so wrapped up in being the customer that I failed to notice the young man is cognitively challenged and likely works hard every day to interact with the public when he has what appears to me to be aspergers. He didn't want to look you in the eyes, really. He's perfectly good at performing the duties of his job. I have seen him shrink away from rude or demanding people and it was not his lack of customer service I took note of. Every once in a while he'll share an odd joke or story with us and I really appreciate it. He's got a great sense of humor and is a big wrestling fan in case you want to try and engage him in an actual conversation. The burgers are actually pretty great. I think he may use tarragon as a seasoning so they are a little unusual. I tend to prefer the thinner patty and like that they use diced onions. The meat to stuff balance on the classic cheese burger it perfect for me. The hand cut fries are good. Like others said, a lot like in n' out. We get individual burgers and a big basket of fries cause a large is plenty for everyone. The place is a bit run down, sure. It's kitschy and nostalgic and that is the appeal. It's part of a dying breed. It's crazy to me how many folks want to pay $4.15 for a meal and go on to suggest that they should invest in renovations. Gordon Ramsey has gone to y'alls heads. Go get a cheap burger, be a decent human and chill.

I'm not from the area, but I will drive out of my way for this burger in the future. New favorite! I recommend! It's hard to tell in the picture, but I got a double burger with cheese and bacon.

I got the delux burger combo $6.75 I think First thing I noticed walking in is that the place could definitely use some redoing with electrical fixurning which completely killed the atmosphere they're attempting to create. Place was clean but looked messy. Service was bland. Guy took my order while he was on phone, no greeting no thank you. Meal came within 5 minutes Food was okay maybe worth $4.15. Came with drink but only drink available was water or lemonade because only soda water was coming out of the fountains. Would have complained but I didn't expect to get any kind of reimbursement for at least the drink.

QUALITY FAST FOOD, made with fresh ingredients and attention to detail. ordered a wimpy cheese with mushroom, it was split in half because it was too big to pick up without giant hands. as I listed in my "burger bite" photo, it took me about 4 bites to get across the center of the burger. it was well-made and neatly organized, with an oversized soft sesame bun and a thin, monster patty. fresh-cut veggies: mushrooms, tomato, lettuce...the onion was super fresh and had some good bite. I haven't had tater tots in a while so I did a substitution on the fries and the tots were great and NOT SALTED which some reviewers complained about but frankly, I think we should ALL be salting our own fries...there were salt shakers everywhere. that way you always get your preferred salt level. they brought my tray out to me which I thought was nice. prices super reasonable. the young man that was helping me was having some trouble with the register before he was unceremoniously brushed aside without a word (by his Dad, I can only assume, who completed the transaction.) Basic "Hot Rod" / Corvette Diner / In And Out throwback decor with black and white checkerboard wall tiles. a few ants were competing for scraps at the trash can but otherwise place was pretty clean. I'll certainly return, maybe I'll try those chicken strips or a shake that everyone is raving about!!

I met Cindy (the owner) at my place of work and she become one of my good clients. She told me about her diner and I inquired about its location and decided to come in and try. The food is made to order, so it does take a little bit of a wait, which I didn't mind because Cindy is inherently friendly. Her husband, who took our order, was also very friendly! That and the food comes out hot and fresh! DELICIOUS. I swear that I ate my burger in like 20 seconds. I INHALED IT and my fries so fast that I missed it when it was gone. For some reason, I felt a sense of nostalgia when I was eating the burger like I was transported back to my childhood in California when I always used to eat at authentic diners. The burger is juicy and full of flavor and just the right size. The fries are fresh and hot. You can tell they cut them directly in the kitchen. My husband and I both ordered a "Lil John combo" which entails a burger with added ham, egg and bacon as well as fresh cut fries and a drink. Our total for two combos was about 16 bucks. This place is quite a ways away from where I live but we'll soon be returning!

I love Annie's. Came here one night looking for chili cheese fries and instead found coney fries. They're fresh, so I don't know why people said it's frozen. You can see them making it in the back. The deluxe burger's great too! Also, I have tomatoes.

Great for that "diner burger" like in a good way. Fries are amazing as are the shakes. Amazingly priced and they are so super nice! Can't go wrong here! No outside lights, so drive by slowly.

Definitely a good diner style burger. Fresh everything on the burger. The seating was nice as the booth was mad for a big man like myself. Coming back for the foot long coney dog next.

I really liked the Beaverton location on TV hwy. They went on vacation and never came back. Sad face. This location has the same outside deco. The fries are exactly like you get at In n Out hamburger in Cali. Both these Annie's had these type fries, but the burger was another story. Beaverton location was to die for. This one, no. When I stop by again it will be with another joint's burger, but I do want the fries. I'll eat in the parking lot.

We were long time customers of Annie's on stark street. We were very disappointed in the place last time we were there.They had a sign posted on the front window saying no tomatoes.I could understand that if they just ran out,but the owners son at they register told me they went up in price so there not serving them. I asked the young man what happens when they raise the price of beef,or wheat what the buns are made of,are you not going to serve them? He just ignored us and walked away,and started filling the ice for the soft drinks. I ordered a Coney from this same guy once before I ordered it with Coney sauce only ,no onion,no mustard,he wanted to charge me extra for Coney sauce Until I explained a Coney Island comes with Coney sauce so he dropped the extra charge,This young man needs training in how to handle customers,or there won't be any customers left. I really liked this place in the past so hopefully they get there act together ,the Wimpy burger is my favorite ,but it went up in price ,and now no tomato just a higher price

This place is great. I've been going there for several years. It's not meant to be fancy. It's meant to be greasy and salty and taste good in an old fashioned way. Their fries are hand cut and fried fresh, although lately I've been getting tater-tots and pretending like I'm back in school. The burgers are great but my best advice is to order a wimpy burger. It's a single half pound patty on a huge bun. Even adding bacon and cheese the thing costs right around $5. And the patty isn't frozen, it's clearly hand formed. My goddaughter loves the coneys. She's a teenager and doesn't even get self conscious about getting it all over her face. And they have great chocolate malts. Perfect for dunking your fries. I've seen many fancy burger joints come and go in Gresham, and Annie's has killed them all.

So I would've given a higher rating, if it weren't for the fries. We'll get to that in a moment. First, and foremost, they are known for their burgers and coney dogs. They had me at coney... love me some coney dogs. The long coney dog is delicious. Perfect dog, in a bun that doesn't overpower it. Right amount of mustard and crisp, fresh onion. Topped of with yummy coney sauce. Mmm! So good! I should've honestly just order an additional coney dog instead of fries. So, the fries is what's killing the rating here. There was a very weird, distinct taste to them that I couldn't put my finger on. Either the fries were freezer burned, or they're using extremely old grease to make them. Either way, they were crisp, no salt, with a slight ashtray aftertaste. Not kidding! It was as if someone was smoking and decided to flick their ashes in the grease. So, if you venture out to this location, steer clear of the fries and stick to what they're known for. Burgers and coney dogs.

Great food at a great price! Dropped in 15 minutes before they were closing and they had my order up and ready to go pretty quick. Had a couple amazing burgers and a coney dog to go. Can't wait to go back!

I loooove this place! Cute lil hole in the wall with amazing food, big portions, super affordable, and their black raspberry shake is friggin heaven. The parking lot and bathroom situation are a little sketchy but it makes up for it with the food and prices.

We're always in the market for good burger joints. This place did not meet even our laziest standards. Decided to stop in here on the way back from an outing to Oxbow Park, because my son is an avid greasy-spoon burgers and old fashioned shakes fan. The reviews of this place were calling to us. Don't believe them - trust me. The place was not clean, which was the first indication that we might have made a mistake. Next, the guy taking orders was kind of rude, and he and someone in the kitchen were yelling back and forth in another language. Normally this would make me smile, and generate a little "Hell yeah!" in my brain, but something about this in a dirty roadside burger joint didn't settle well. The food was mediocre at best - the meat in the burgers was very bland, grayish and overcooked. The buns were stale. My wife had the mushroom cheeseburger "special" and we noted immediately that canned mushrooms - PLUS the juice from the can - had been dumped onto the burger - soggy bun for days. It was more than a little gross. The fries - these are freezer fries and they were horrendously undercooked, soggy, and somehow also dry. I just don't know what kind of punishment you have to put a frozen french fry through in order to achieve that result, but it's not something anyone or anything should ever experience. Last - my son ordered a shake. The menu listed several flavors of shake so he had picked one (peanut butter, I think?) but the kid behind the counter said "No peanut butter". So he ordered a chocolate shake. When he got it, he said it tasted funny, so I tasted it. I tasted old generic shelf-stable chocolate syrup (probably a Hershey's knockoff), and loads of freezer-burn, along with a hint of something "off" that I couldn't place. The taste was decidedly NOT chocolate, but something else - like malted chemical vanilla. Son had a nasty stomachache before he got through half his burger, too. We will absolutely not return to this place.

Ute little dinner I've passed since I was little, decent cheap burgers with a 50s style diner feel.

Don't waste your hard earned money, the burgers are beyond dry... I would have taken a picture of the fries but I threw them out. McDonald's probably would have been better!!'

This place sucks. I asked for a bacon cheeseburger plan. They screwed up my burger. When I brought it up to the counter the young man shrugged his shoulders and would not make me a new burger. The kid at the counter said I would have to pay $0.95 as well for a new burger. I paid for a large drink, but gave me a medium. No apologies from the manager either. Here is the picture of my wrong burger. Fries are Ok.

I would give ya 4 stars but since people have been letting their dogs piss on the base of the podium so yeah. The burgers are good, the burgers have enough salt and are not dry. Service is quick. The Coney dogs yum, love the mustard flavor!

Consistent service fast food is simple hamburger nothing outrageous. Just a good old hamburger and shoe string fries. Fast everytime I go and doesn't sacrifice on quality.

These guys do a great, classic burger made with fresh ingredients. Their tots and fries are cooked to perfection. The milkshakes are delicious. And the owners are friendly and nice. I love coming here. The tots don't keep well on trips longer than a couple of minutes, though, so if you're going for take out, keep that in mind.

First time going,I was excited. I got a small milkshake,chocolate made with hersheys syrup,onion rings battered,not breaded,and the whimpy burger,1/2 pound. I almost died devouring everything. No one could finish their burger in one sitting. I ate the rest of mine at 3 in the morning. So yummy! Everythings made to order,and you can get it to go. I will defintly be back here! :D

Holy Moly. I wanted a good burger, and I got a piping hot, to drool for deluxe cheeseburger in 5 minutes. I am definitely coming back for the burgers. Cheaper than mcdonalds burgers AND this good? Yes please. Not impressed with their fries (similar to in n out fries which I don't like), but that doesn't matter to me, I just wont get them next time. Next time I come ill try their popular coney dogs and update my review! So I tried their coney dog and it was pretty darn good! I've never tried a coney dog, and am not a big fan of mustard, but it isn't a real coney dog without it! I don't think I would get it again since their burgers are so darn good, but I'd still recommend them!

The lesson I learned today was, definitely read the reviews before spending your hard earned cash on lousy food and sub par service.

This restaurant is a good example of a classic diner, but its missing out on simple things to improve quality like changing the fry oil. Mine were soggy and tasted rancid. The kid working the counter should put down the phone and clean up the front and pay attention to guests.

I hate writing these kind of reviews for small businesses. Annie's is just not a labor or love for the folks who own it, although I'm sure they work hard and put in long hours, and in the end I feel pretty much like the Yelp description of a two-star review - "meh, I've experienced better." Sad comment when with some elbow grease and perhaps charging more for higher-quality ingredients, this small-ish burger stand could really make a good impression and even get better reviews (and there are customers who like it a lot). The location is not so bad. There's not much else in these few blocks except a couple of food carts. Curb appeal is OK at first, kind of cute with the black-and-white tiles, but the close-up gets worse the closer you get, (sort of an "Mr. DeMille, I'm not ready for my close-up" effect). Once in the door, I realized how dingy it was. Cracked black-and-white tiles here and there with some disinterested placement of photos of 1960s muscle cars. Gordon Ramsey would have a field day with trying to get this place back into gear; his first priority would be to get the place cleaned up via the use of a lot of elbow grease and industrial cleaner. The next would be to go over the menu item by item, order some higher-quality ingredients (the buns were actually pretty good, but the large patty was from frozen stock. The fries were surprisingly fresh and tasty). I ended up feeling OK about eating here because everything came in paper, and I did take it back to the office where I worked today (I forget my lunch at home, so was in a bit of a bind). Customer service is in sore need of help. I suspect that the owner and his son (I'm pretty sure) work very, very hard and this is where the lack of "personability" comes in. It's hard to get enthused when you're tired. Still a smile and a thank you (I hope) shouldn't exhaust these two gentleman, and I hope they can find a way to work on this. You get what you put into a transaction, and they might enjoy their restaurant more if they were able to put some effort into customer service. This restaurant has been here for several years, and I'm sure it's been through more than one owner. I hope they can think their way out of this dilemma and make it work. I think they'd be much happier with success than with failure. I wish them all them best.

We came through here one night last week when it was about 8:45 PM. They couldn't seat us, as the close at 9, but they made us everything we wanted and we could take it out. I opted for the double-cheeseburger because I was quite hungry and this was the first food all day. The burger quality was astounding for such a small place and reasonable price. The burger was so big I couldn't finish my fries - I'll have to go for a single next time out of self-defense. The fries were a little limp but not stale or overgreasy - it's the kind of fry you'd fry for yourself, clearly cut fresh from potatoes that day, perhaps mere hours ago. If they weren't ramrod-straight and snapping-crisp it was because they were homemade-style, not the over-engineered, comparatively-tasteless type you get from, say, a McDonalds or a Burger king. The taste was light, pleasant, potato-y, with exactly the right amount of salt. The place was an old hot-dog place, a former Roake's Foot-long, so the building was cheerfully, comfortably care-worn without being trashy, clean and well-kept despite the wear. This is a place for good-old "burgers", and the taste of the meat is so good I can't help but recommend it.

They make a pretty descent burger. Tots are magic. Don't let these reviews that dog the place for its appearance define your dining. It's appearance is definitely one owner and lots of hours, but it's never filthy or health code violation serious. Hand washing and fresh product seem to be the norm, at least in my visits . And the fact they chop their onions versus rings on a burger is on point !!!
