Bless Your Heart Burgers - The Mill

Friendly service, restaurant full of natural light, nice and bright. Very tasty burgers, juicy and full of flavour, didn't skimp on toppings. Burger bun was fine I would prefer a bit more heft. Fries hit and fresh, could perfectly, not greasy.. chicken strips were moist and tender and again not greasy. They had 3 beers on tap ( two craft microbeers. Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. Plenty of parking.

Best burgers in town; I have been coming to Bless your Heart for over a year and am always happy when I leave. The burgers are always juicy, the fries are always crisp, and the fry sauce tops. Not tempted in the slightest to go to in n out when these guys are here. Doesn’t appeal to me at all. Support local and come try a Bless your Heart burger, you won’t be disappointed! 🤍

Great experience….yummy burgers and fries! Very clean, quick service and general manager was awesome and friendly. We have gone to this location on Mill Plain three times and it’s always been a great experience! Get the homemade ranch!! Delicious.

The best smash burger I've had so far. I got the LL Cool J single burger, the down n dirty fries, and a strawberry milkshake. The portion for the fries was huge—definitely great for sharing. I love thin and crispy fries, and they delivered. No soggy fries! The milkshake was delicious. Definitely will be back to sit outside with the nice weather coming up. 💖 Gotta try their boozy milkshakes, too!

Soooo good! The burgers are juicy but also have the perfect crust. Also the chicken tenders were so light, crispy, and perfectly cooked. The people are super nice and welcoming. 1000% highly recommend

First time here, I did enjoy my meal. -My hamburger was not as smash as all the reviews mentioned -I order mine with jalapeños and it was delicious -The fries were not as good to my taste -The sauces were Wow, my favorite was the ranch, not sure if it had a hint of garlic but it yummy. The fries sauce was also real good. -We were there for happy hour and ordered the $12 burger basket (beverage not included) which made it a little to pricey in my opinion -The guy at the counter was very helpful and suggested the happy hour basket and also their season pumpkin pie shake, didn’t tried it this time. -We got to our table and it was dirty, we moved to another table and that was dirty as well, restaurant was empty (only two customers that I counted) tables should’ve been clean. -I got up to get some water and the soda machine was dirty and so was the counter. -I liked the tvs with different movies and sports you can watch while waiting for your order, our wait time was like 10 minutes. -There’s also outdoor seating. -I would come back to try some else.

Love it! A bit crazy busy because they are new but worth the drop in. Great people, friendly service, and excellent food! Love the burgers and fries which is what we had first visit. I plan to try it all. Simple straight forward menu and a good floor layout make it a great experience. Cant wait for the weather to warn up and sit in their amazing patio Also they have a full liquor license so you can have a drink with your food. They house specialty cocktail is excellent! Worth the visit!

Was told by a friend to try this and happy I listened!!! These are some good smash burgers!!! Definitely don’t taste like PNW burgers. Reminded me of Freddy’s smash burgers. The chili cheese fries were really great too although I wish there was a lil more cheese on them. But still great!!! The hot dog was also really good and that’s even rarer to find in the Vancouver. Soo definitely give these guys a try!!

Great burger, loved the crispy edges, toppings were unique and tasty. The hot dog was also very good.

the service was quite nice to us, we only got a pretty small burger a small fry , a cup for soda, and my dad got a beer this in total was 26 bucks which was kinda insane for what we got. The fries came out and the first bite i took I could've thrown up. it was undercooked or something, it tasted like it was rotten. luckily it was just one fry but the rest of them were insanely salty and i though i tried to ignore it but there was just WAY too much salt. I hope that if i come back to this restaurant it would have improved

Tried Bless Your Heart Burgers today! As a native Texan I was drawn to them by their name and we were not disappointed. I had their forager burger that's on special, it was incredible!!! My hubs had the Love burger and loved the spiced level but won't love the aftermath later they have a cool patio and serve liquor. I highly recommend

I stopped in here for a quick burger. They have a happy hour special single burger with all the fixings and fries. Just the right size for me. Also $10! Can't find that these days. They have a lot of other great burgers to choose from. They even have a hotdog which I will come back and try someday. They have a full bar. I did not get a milkshake today, but I have had one before. They are delicious. I recommend recommend this place. It's conveniently located on a corner and has a huge parking lot. Inside is bright and clean. The staff is amazing and friendly.

The burger was delicious. But the French fries we way too salty. It was so salty I could not eat them. Even the ppl next to us were shaking the salt of there French fries. I asked if they can remake at least one of our fries with no salt, and that was a lot better.

Bless your heart, you cook your burgers so long and with so much pressure, you think smash burger means squeezing all the moisture out of the meat and serving a burnt, see through burger that has crispy, hard, burnt bits throughout. Growing up near Houston Texas you would understand that as code for "way overdone brother, the cow is already dead, what are you doing?" I overheard a conversation at my dentists office about how good they are and I bookmarked it then and there. Here I am. You can fake some things however nothing says Southern more loudly than having Iced Tea on tap, and not from a Soda machine. Their unsweetened tea is pretty good. I haven't lived in Washington State for long, so perhaps it's not the same health department issue as every other state however the cook's shoulder length hair is not tied up or constrained by a net. The food is (over) cooked to order, they do warn you in the menu as they call their burgers "smash" burgers. I didn't interpret that to mean bull dozed burgers. I am not sure what I think of the bbq fries. Shoe string fries coated with the seasoning you might expect on bbq chips. The spice and the salt burned my mouth. The place is clean, the staff friendly and at a time with almost no other customers, the food came up pretty quickly. I won't be delaying their customers getting their food in the future as I can find a meal closer to my liking for $18 at just about any other burger place in town. Fortunately the wife was out of town so it wasn't as expensive as it could have been. Bless your heart indeed.

Bless your heart is definitely something different to try out. They have a wide variety of things to try out depending on your taste buds, it's about $10-$15 per person to eat here.

Delicious smashed burgers! Love the casual atmosphere and being able to eat outside when the weather permits. Fabulous hot dogs as well.

Yum and yum! How is this place so quiet! It's a hidden gem! Ordering is fast and easy. The team had my food out pretty fast. I ordered a double burger and fries. The burger was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. It was juicy, the beef was delicious, but overpowered by the mustard. The zing was tasty! The fries were nice and crispy, and there were more than I could finish. Great portions! Great food, great service!

Soda selection is terrible. The staff was completely not helpful nor excited to be there. Their milkshakes were down because the icecream was too new and too hard. Not impressed and will not be back.

I've been here a handful of times and it's been very hit or miss. The trip before last was months ago because my burger was so bland and the bun so dry that I swore off going. I would choose a mcdonald's cheeseburger over anything BYH was serving up. BUT it's one of my wife's favorite and she convinced me to go again. And this time the burger was absolutely fantastic. The burger patty was nice and smashed with crispy edges. It was seasoned really well. The bun was soft. It was better than Smashburger or Shake Shack. If you're looking for a beefy burger, go double patty. A single patty ain't gonna do it for you. I'm torn on recommending BYH because one time it was awful and the other time it was incredible. I don't know which I'm going to get when I go so how do I recommend it to someone when it might be the bad version? Fingers crossed the most recent reviews will indicate they've become more consistent!

First time eating at bless your heart. Amazing burgers!! Amazing customer service. Great find.

Very clean. Quick service. Delicious burgers and fries. We've wanted to try this store and finally did.

Burgers just ok. Sadly they don't do refills on iced tea but in all other fountain drinks they do. Facility is pretty clean. Decent service. Fries pretty good. Out of ketchup and we asked for more and they did get it but they acted like we were asking too much

This place is so so so good!! I love the smashed burgers and their bbq seasoned fries. Such a good idea!! The only reason I rated this a 4 instead of a 5 is because everything was a bit salty, HOWEVER, I like my stuff seasoned rather than not, so not complaining! Their bottled root beer is really good and their ranch is one of the best!! Has a garlic kick to it! Highly recommend this place.

Stopped at Bless Your Heart because we hadn't had lunch and it looks so clean and bright. We were not disappointed, delicious smash cheeseburgers, one with bacon, lovely staff great customer service wonderful fries and all the fixings! A menu w/something for everyone! Even veggie! Chicken fingers, salads. Beer & mixed drinks outside seating and plenty of inside seating g, too!!

Delicious smash burgers! But oh those Fries. We tried all there smothered fries and they were all great my favorite were the dirty fries salty and tangy at the same time. Great stop for a group.

I decided to drop in to see what this place was all about. I was surprised by the smaller menu, but not in a bad way. It's nice when a place has something and focus on it. The interior is open and well lit, and there's a covered patio as well. If you drink alcohol, there have some cocktails and drink selections too (two draft beers, a draft cider and cans of Rainer as well). They are known for their burgers so I tried the Love burger, a double patty. It comes smash burger style, on a griddled potato bun. I also got chili cheese fries because why not. The burger was about 14 bucks and the fries were 8.50. I want to end this review on a positive so I'll start with the not so great. Those chili cheese fries . I tried my partners (who had just the bbq seasoned fries) and those were good, so it's not an issue with the fries themselves. The cheese sauce is good too. But the chili tastes...funny. It's not Cincinnati style chili (like no cinnamon) but it's got a weird flavor and texture to it. It was almost mealy and was off-putting in flavor. I am generally someone who will eat chili from anywhere. Out of a can, from Sonic, from a ballpark or a street vendor...I even make my own when I feel fancy. I even like coney sauce. But this wasn't good. I threw almost all of the chili fries away because it just ruined them. I left a photo because it shocked my partner how much I actually disliked something that I normally would mowchow. Now for the good. That burger was amazing. The meat had that slightly Lacy crispness on the edges, the cheese was perfect and the bun had the best buttery texture! It was delightful! I rank it as one of the best I've had in Vancouver, truly. We will definitely be back for the hamburgers. Definitely come and check this place out. The food is really good, but personally I would avoid anything that they put that chili on.

Stopped in for lunch on a Sunday around noon. Greeted upon entering. The restaurant was clean and staff helpful and friendly. It is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. They have a nice sized outdoor seating area with many picnic tables and a super nice, sturdy covered structure. You place your order at the counter, you're given a number plaque, then you find a place to sit, and they bring your food to you. You bus your own table when finished. They offer fountain drinks in two sizes and don't offer free refills. We ended up ordering a single classic burger with bacon added for $2, a down n dirty dog, and a large fry with two dipping sauces...fry sauce for $1 and beer cheese for $2.50. We each ordered a beverage too...a canned beer for $3, and a fountain drink for $2.75. They only offer a few fountain drink flavors...Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Fanta Orange, and lemonade. Fountain root beer would be a nice addition. Bottled root beer is far too sweet for me. The food came out pretty quickly. The fries were yummy. Shoestring style. Crispy and salty deliciousness. The dipping sauces were good, too! The burger was cooked nicely...smashburger style. It had nice, crispy edges. I like how they toast the buns too...prevents sogginess. My hubby liked his hot dog, too. Fresh veggies topped the beef dog. Both were good and messy...just the way we like it. Overall, we had a great first experience. We felt the 'love' in both the food and employees. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

I was working out at the gym when Bless Your Heart had its grand opening. Just reading the sign I thought it was some kind of healthy burger joint. So, I passed. Talking to a friend a few weeks later I learned it was anything but, so we planned to try it out. A week later we met up for an exploratory visit. **Warning** the doors are heavy, use some muscle when you open the door. You start at a counter to order and pay. The staff was super patient with our newbie questions since it was our first time. I decided on the Ya'll Come Back Burger and fries. I got a number for the table and a cup for my soda. Start rant. If I have any complaint right off the bat, it is the very narrow selection of drinks and only one diet option. In today's world of Freestyle machines and 12 bank soda dispensers it seems like an after-thought. Rant over. The food arrived quick, and everything was hot. In true smashburger style the patty was thin and had caramelized onion. No medium rare here, it comes well done and you'll be happy about it. The bun was light, kind of like an In-n-Out bun which was refreshing. It didn't look like it would fill me up, but there I was at the end of the meal, and I was satisfied. Now, the topper for me was the fries. Thin, crunchy outside, soft inside and salted just right. They were just wonderful and a great compliment to the meal. I got regular fries, but they offer several different options with different toppings. Sorry, I didn't pay attention to what they were. I was very impressed with the staff. I watched them while we were eating and they looked efficient, they were certainly friendly, even checking on us to make sure everything was okay. This is a burger joint I am planning on coming back to again and again.

Looks like someone took the business model from another famous burger place and tailored it to their own. Burgers were good, old style, burger joint burgers. No tomato?? None of the flavors over powered the other. Tasted good. Fries were chewy and mostly small...bottom of the frozen bag....they were ...ok

Actually, somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars. Let's start with the fries; ever been to McDonald's? Same same. Eat 'em while they're still hot and you'll be fine with it. As for the burgers, I would say they hit what they are aiming for and that would be the middle ground between fast food and huge fancy pub burgers. It's a great choice if you want to spend more than 5 or 6 bucks and less than 15 or 20. Most of their burgers seem to be in the 9 to 12 dollar range. I have the usual quibble about being charged a buck for dipping sauces but A- everyone does that now and B- I'm old enough to remember places giving you at least the first one for free. They have a few tvs that show sports but it's not really a sports bar vibe, it's more fast casual with something to stare at while you eat. I just had my third trip through there and will no doubt return.

Went here on a weekday around 4:30, not to busy. Such a cute place, clean and friendly staff. You order at the counter, take a number and they bring it out to you. Was a little spendy in my opinion considering you buy everything separately. Burger itself for a single patty was $10. Overall the food was yummy.

Excellent food, excellent service, very clean place. I came in as a DoorDasher, not knowing what to expect. The service was great, and the menu interesting enough that I decided to come back after my Dash shift to try it. The man at the counter (owner?) remembered me from before, and was very personable. I ordered the Chili Dog, Fries, and a Raspberry shake (because sadly, the huckleberry shake was off the menu). The shake was tasty, and just the right size. The fries - that's why I'm here writing this review. These may have been some of the best fries I've had in years. Perfectly crunchy without being burnt, and nicely seasoned (but not overly salty). They survived a 10 minute trip back home and stayed crunchy, so I disagree with Biff that says they're like McDonald's fries. Maybe he got a bad batch. The chili dog (with cheese and onions) was very tasty. Overall, this is a place I'd be happy to return to.

Wasn't busy and the outdoor area was super big and covered. Staff was kind and they were playing cool music. Food came out pretty fast and it was good, the ranch was really good. I would come back for a simple bite to eat.

Love this place, love the burgers, fries, and beer! Crave it! Thank you! Got my husband out for the first time in a month and a week, just to have your east coast dog! Thank you

You might as well stay home and eat a piece of beef jerky and plastic cheese on wonder bread. Worst burger I've ever had. Service was slow and even though the meal was made to order the fries were still cold.

Tasty and good quality but wayyyy overpriced. $20 for a paper thin smash burger, fries and a soft drink. And for crying out loud, don't default to a tip at the register then have signs on display reminding guests to bus their own friggin' tables. Won't be back.

Yum, yum, yummy! This was my second time eating at this really, really good burger joint! We were greeted by the cashier who was polite, but not overly friendly. She took our order efficiently and accurately. Hubby ordered the "Y'all Come Back" burger with no deviation from the menu listing. It looked so good! Ooey, gooey cheese and grilled onions heaped on the bun, just dripping their deliciousness! He gobbled it down! I had the "Veggie Melt" with easy ketchup and spicy mustard and no peppers. This sandwich is AMAZING! The only "oops" was the mayo, which I'm pretty sure wasn't listed as an ingredient. I am literally deathly allergic to mayo. I asked the wait staff to please prepare one without mayo, and the gal who wasn't overly friendly was very kind, very concerned and had a new sandwich in front of me in no time! The onions and mushrooms were generously heaped on and dripping onto my plate. The hero here is the zucchini pickles. You must try this sandwich ASAP! I loved scooping up the drippings and cleaning my plate. You get your moneys worth with this sandwich. We shared the BBQ fries. They are the skinny fries, fried and flavored to perfection. There were a few, very minor things that disappointed me. I had thought this was a locally owned establishment, but they're part of a corporation of restaurants. Oh well! The other issue was sticker shock. $3.75 for a fountain drink seemed exorbitant. My hubby and I left with full tummies, completely embracing their stated love language "burgers". Do yourself a favor and go grab some dinner!

Great tasting classic smash burger. Happy hour meals are the way to go if needing to save a few bucks. The restaurant was clean, and the patio was great on a nice afternoon. Service was also very good. Will definitely be back.

The burger was great. My fries were overcooked and seemed old. My bad, as I should have taken them back and gotten them redone. Would give another try sometime.

Let's start with the phone call...... It had been a long day at work. I had to sit through 205 traffic at 5pm on a Wednesday. My wife called to see if I would like to try Bless Your Heart Burgers that evening. I agreed and asked her to phone ahead so I could pick it up on my way to the house. She called the number she had found on the line. The person who answered said that they were understaffed and could not take a phone order,‍. Let's recap.... so understaffed you can't take a phone order, BUT, you can answer the phone to tell me you can't take a phone order?????? Literally it took the same amount of time to tell her he could not take an order as it would to take the damn order of two burgers and one fry!!! Sooooo... like a good patron I walked my tired ass into your establishment. I was sure I would see a packed house with orders lined up on the counter waiting to be taken to tables all over the house, people running amuck, I was sure the line would be LITERALLY out the door. I was sure I was going to wait in line for 15 minutes just to be told " all the food is gone, we have sold out tonight, damn we are busy!" NOPE!!! Walked right into the young lady and ordered right away. She was so busy that she spent most of her time after i ordered hanging and talking with her friend at one of the tables!! There were three whole people eating at the tables! Damn, you all were so,so busy that you did not have time to take our order......SMH! The food was ok, fries a bit undercooked. Burger, was ok, but I could find better elsewhere. I would say I would return if the customer service would have been on par, but the is not the case. I feel the person who answered the phone was just plain ass lazy. Your business will fail eventually if your business model is , " I will make time for you, if I have time to make time for you" . This is a horrible way to run a business. Yes, this is just my two cents, but, your crew should step up their game!

I am a big fan of Bless Your Heart. I used to go to the McMinnville location regularly and was sad when it closed. My husband and I were super excited to go to the new Bless Your Heart location in Vancouver! We stopped by on a Wednesday night. I was happy to see a line of about 4 people waiting to order and almost all seats in the dining area full. It is a beautiful and large restaurant. Decorated in classic Bless Your Heart style with their cool branding all over. We ordered a Classic Single, NW natural beef, Duke's mayonnaise, brown mustard, ketchup, sweet onions, shredded lettuce, homemade zucchini pickles, and American cheese on a toasted potato bun. Single Bless Your Heart 1/4 lb. Carolina burger with love, chili (contains gluten), onions, cole slaw, yellow mustard, Texas Pete's hot sauce, homemade zucchini pickles, and American cheese on a toasted potato bun. With a large coke but skipped the fries this go around . The soda is self serve. I was impressed they offered plain soda water in leu of tap water. Vancouver does not have the best tasting tap water so this made my day. The burgers were brought to our table in about 10 minutes. Piping hot, crispy, juicy, with melted cheese and wrapped snuggly in burger paper. Our favorite was the chili burger but we loved both. Considering how busy they were they did an amazing job at being consistent. My burgers were cooked and tasted exactly as I expected.

Took 45 minutes for a burger to arrive from the time I ordered it the time it reached my table. There was one person in the entire restaurant before me and they got served 20 minutes before I did. There are four people working behind the counter. I'm sure plenty of orders were prepared for pick up and delivery, but this is ridiculous.

the food is very good it's just a bit spendy everyone was very nice there and it was clean inside

Great burgers ! Enjoyed the Crispy edges to my smash burger. Really a good burger. Great time.

Great burger with lots of flavor and just the right size. The service was good and the staff friendly. The outside seating is covered and inviting. The only complaint I have is the music was a little loud but then again I'm old. Oh yeah, Happy Hour!

This restaurant was really good. The burgers were nice and juicy not dry at all. The french fries were super crispy and salt level was perfect. We will be going back when we want a good burger done right.

The food is awesome. Eating in is easy, If you ever order online to go, add 20 mins to your order even though they say 45 mins. I don't think they start it until you show up. Every pick up order is always 10 more minutes...

Pro: - good flavor - saucy but tasty sauces - great crispy fries, decent amount for a small size - has beer and outdoor seating Con: - bus your own table, but tip options starts at 20% - buns were cold - only has American cheese

Tasty burgers, simple. Large portions for the fries. Service is superb! They let us know about a delay prior to ordering. Appreciated the heads up. Definitely a repeat meal here!

Great burgers! Made fresh. Good vibe. But prices feel they are double what is reasonable.

First off... I am a normal person living in the couve', I am not a relative of the owner of this place and I'm gonna tell you the truth... today was my first visit and I was excited to give' em a try... here is a brief step by step recap: Walked in and was greeted by miss "grumpy puss"... no smile no eye to eye contact-dead pan... not off to a good start... ordered 1 small fry (5.00) with sauce, one of their loaded hot dogs (9.00) and a soft drink (3.00)... so, I'm into this for nearly 20.00 bucks... after a long wait here comes the food... the fries were exactly like McDonald's fries, nothing special and the sauce was icky on the fries so I did ketchup... NOW... THE HOT DOG... THE WEINER WAS THE SKINNIEST WIENER I'VE EVER SEEN AND IT HAD A DISTINCT METALLIC TASTE... THE DOG WAS SERVED IN A PAPER CARRIER... BUN-WIENER AND INDISTINGUISHABLE GOOP PILED ON TOP... NOW THE WORST PART... THE WHOLE THING WAS MICROWAVED WHICH GOOPED EVERYTHING TOGETHER... NUKED SO BADLY THAT I COULDN'T CUT THRU IT WITH A KNIFE.... In my final summation... I'm sure all the Millenials and gen'zers will love this place but it sucks... again, I'm just a normal citizen and I'm hoping to save you a ton of money... go to woody's tacos right across the parking lot... go anywhere but here...

We stopped because my wife liked the name and we are heading to the south soon so here we are. Doesn't live up to what the name implies. Burgers were different and generally tasty but seems expensive for what (a quarter pound patty)? Staff was friendly, dining room clean. Fries were hot and crispy, fry sauce was $1, not really worth it. Tried something new, it's a good day.

Killer burgers! Now that is what a smash burger should be! Great toppings. Crunchy, crispy edges on the burger make it a true smash burger unlike other restaurants claim.

WOW - we were looking for a lunch place & boy did we find one!! BLESS YOUR HEART BURGERS is just straight up really good food!! It's ALL good & the service is excellent! They know their menu & make helpful recommendations. And they have good sense of humor!! The location is in the same building as Motor Moka- but no connection as far as we can tell . Bless Your Heart is clean, comfortable & has a good patio for outdoor seating. So go Bless Your Heart!

Finally decided to check this place out after seeing all the mixed reviews about it. It's such a cute little restaurant, but it is a buss your own table/clean up after yourself place. They also have an outside seating area but it was a little too windy for us to sit outside. They do serve alcohol. I saw that they had liquor, beer and mixed drinks. I also saw at the front that they sold merchandise with their Bless Your Heart Burger logo. They had zip up sweatshirts, shirts and dad hats. The staff was nice, very friendly, but I did notice that everyone working the grill did not have on hair nets or beard covers. I saw a couple guys with long hair that were tied back, and beards and facial hair and not one of them was wearing a hairnet or a beard cover. The food was a little pricey for just a small burger joint, but it was good. The ketchup is free but ranch and fry sauce costs $1 if you order a side of it for your fries.

I'll start with the positives, the fry sauce and beer cheese are amazing!!! The burgers are okay, but too greasy and salty for me; the chicken strips are horrible! So salty I had to throw them away after a few bites. Fries are just standard fries. I'd love to see some higher quality fries for the delicious dips.

First time here, and wow the food and environment as amazing! I was recommended to get the LL Cool J burger and it was great! They also have Happy Hour! You got to try this place!
