"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

Awesome hole in the wall. Travelled almost 20 miles to try these burgers and fries and was not disappointed. They locally source a lot of their food, and they take the time to see what foods work best for what. Their potatoes are actually fried in rice oil, and are delightfully crisp, with a lack of grease. (They are also unlimited so bring an appetite ♡) They serve burgers that are harder to find, such as lamb, buffalo, and alpaca. The toppings are all on the side so freshness is always on your plate. Will be returning again, if not for the food, but the amazingly kind staff. Thanks guys, please keep up the great service!

Great food and atmosphere with 50's nostalgia and photos of hot rods everywhere. The food is nothing fancy, but exactly what one would expect from a burger diner. The ingredients are all locally sourced if possible and clean, the owner himself informed us. The entire staff was super friendly...best service I've had anywhere. Definitely try this gem!

Wow. This place was a real treat. The best burger you will find anywhere. We loved sitting in the sun on the back patio. The staff is incredibly polite and attentive—they all bring their A game. We will enjoy venturing out here for years to come.

I’m going to give it another chance but my first experience was not good. I stopped in late afternoon to pickup a couple of burgers and fries on my way home. I’ve passed this place 100 times and decided to give it a shot based on good reviews. I ordered the 57 burger with fries. I was most excited about the fresh hand cut fries they boast but I was super disappointed. I couldn’t finish them. They were maybe cut and fresh four days ago. Not good. The burger was just ok, definitely not worth $12 or $13. The patty was a small puck style, the bacon a little too dry and I guess I didn’t read the fine print that you have to ask for condiments. I did remember to ask for extra pickles and as you can see in the picture, I’m not sure if the guy was being funny or what. ?? On a side note, I almost got a milkshake but $6.75? That’s outrageous. Will try again, maybe just stop in for fries and if I’m feeling spendy get the milkshake. I’ll update this review if that happens.

Delicious little hidden Burger spot in the middle of the Hillsboro farmlands. Unlimited fries with each burger order. Such a nostalgic feel with license plates and photos of classic cars as well as cars that have visited the location. Unique meats like buffalo and others that are slipping my mind. Though the patties weren't too big, it was still juicy and delicious. What really surprised me were the shakes actually... Fricken amazing. Get the coffee Oreo one for sure! Great local business

Such a great place to end up after a morning paddling on the Tualatin River. Service, servers and owner were the best! Food was pretty good. Beer was cold and their selection of domestics and micros was excellent. I'd go here again. Please don't expect big town, hand ground, burgers and hand cut fries. Expect friendly people and serviceable food. We'll be back.

Two thumbs up! Stopped in on a whim after a long business drive and totally not disappointed! From their friendly greeting when you walk through the door, to their charming decor, and the fun names on their menus, everything about this place is spot on! It was so hard to decide, but I finally chose their '57 Chevy Cheeseburger, warm German potato salad, and a chocolate shake to go. OMGEEE! Generous portions and reasonable prices, as well as an incredibly tempting menu that also includes buffalo, lamb, alpaca, chicken, and fish sandwiches and yummy side dishes, this curious foodie will be making this a habit!

Wonderful for food allergies and intolerances, and just lots of tasty options in general. 2 kinds of gluten free buns (Jensens and Udi's), multiple meat types like alpaca and Mahi Mahi, and gluten free fries and chicken strips. Even offer all ingredient labels to review for any questions! Only thing I think could be pretty easily gluten free that wasn't, was their teriyaki sauce (normal soy sauce currently in it). Might get a bit hard to park if it gets very busy, but no idea if that's normally an issue (I came in around 3pm on a weekday). I had the Jensen brand gluten free bun, with grass fed buffalo, and grilled onions. Fries and even added a single chicken strip to try for like $2 (I had a bite before the picture). Sysco spicy BBQ sauce which they have on an online gluten free list (had modified food starch of unlisted origin on the ingredients). Very tasty and lean meat. Plenty of soft onions with enough brown to add flavor. Chicken strip was nicely crunchy!
