Mike's Drive-In

Great to see this establishment open again. We got there fairly early on Sunday, around 1030, and the line started to get long. We made it just before the rush. Nice open parking with signs that have the QR code to scan so you can order from your car. Plenty of outdoor seating with picnic tables. Easy to read menu. The food tasted great. Nice size portions. Burger is wrapped in a foil type wrap. Chocolate shake was good as always. The side of coleslaw was small. Husband was hoping for bigger portions of coleslaw. We took ours home to eat rather than sitting outside. It was still a little chilly out. Next time when it’s warmer we will sit outside. Love this place.

I have been a looooong time Mike's customer and have waited with anticipation for their re- opening. I knew it would likely be busy and some kinks to work out, but also expected that there would be some degree of quality control and supervision to avoid missteps. We ordered in person, and waited patiently. I did not have a problem with the wait, knowing the food is cooked to order. One bite of a french fry 30 seconds after picking up from the window, 30 seconds after our number was called, and COLD fries confirmed to me that no one is making sure things are going well, just that food is getting out, good or bad. My own burger, ordered on a GF bun, had no markings to separate from my daughter's and was lukewarm at best. Hers, a plain cheeseburger, seemed to have been the hold up, as hers was mostly warm. Shakes were almost up to par, but still a little off the mark. With the price increase across the board, there was a little extra sting in it being well below expectations. I can say we'll try again, but not for a while until the bad taste of this experience wears off.

Service was fantastic and the food was also delectable, got two meals and was 40 dollars plus tip which I've gotten worse food for more at fast food restaurants, would absolutely prefer this over some poorly made burger anywhere else. Burgers tasted fresh and the shakes were very good. I don't really like coleslaw at all but theirs was very good. I enjoyed my meal

What an awesome place to go. Total destination location for a delicious meal, came in for some burgers with my sister. The managers are absolutely incredible, the service is amazing, non stop Hussle with a smile on their faces.the food is is worth any wait. Great things take time. I appreciate them letting us know what to expect! Hats off to a fantastic burger joint. Just ordered, and I Can't wait to re visit this location!!

I always have loved Mikes, but food/service since the reopening has been off. Mike special deluxe is supposed to be their flagship burger, its become small and wet, missing ingredients that are supposed to be a staple. Most recently missed lettuce and BACON! you cant miss the bacon. Sweet potato waffle fried were delicious, but only seems about half the serving size they used to be. Typically Mikes always filled me up to the point of saving some for later, recently it doesn't come close to satisfying. Shrinkflation? Probably

We have been going there for at least 30 years. They used to have the best corn dogs (my husband's favorite). I always get the senior cheese burger (my favorite). We have been back several times since they reopened. Today, his corn dogs were frozen, so barely warm, and my cheese burger was a little on the burnt side, and they don't put the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on it anymore ,you should at least lower the price. Probably won't be back they were the best.

I never had the chance to experience Mike's Drive-In before it closed, as I’m not from the area, so I don’t have the nostalgia that many others might have. However, I’m really glad they’ve re-opened because it's a fantastic spot! Their burger and fries were incredibly fresh and delicious, some of the best I’ve had in a while. What really stands out to me is the drive-in element. It’s such a unique and charming aspect that encourages people to get out of their cars and actually interact with each other. In a world where drive-thrus and online orders are the norm, it’s refreshing to see a place that brings people together in a fun, retro way. The aesthetics of Mike’s Drive-In are spot-on, capturing that classic, vintage vibe perfectly. The picnic tables add to the experience, making it a great place to sit down, enjoy a meal, and soak in the nostalgic atmosphere. Everything about it feels like a step back in time in the best possible way. If you’re looking for a place with great food and a cool, retro experience, I highly recommend checking out Mike’s Drive-In. It’s a wonderful addition to the community and well worth a visit!

Won't be back, It sucked we had to see it getting fixed for so long, and now, it's just another place we won't go back to. Phone order Told 25 mins arrived at that time, only live a few mins away. No way for the food to be that cold already. Sodas were flat, fries, and O rings cold, and tasted like cinnamon and sugar. New bags the burgers come in hold moisture, and were wet and unmanageable to hold.

Kinda service. Solid burgers, shakes, fries, ice cream. Sometimes I get the chicken tender basket. Cannot go wrong when you're craving a delicious greasy meal . Love the old school drive in vibe they maintain at this place. They've been under maintenance after a car crashed into their business last year in 2023, and have still been undergoing repairs and also looks like some exterior upgrades as well, which was probably due, so I'm excited for their reopening. Hopefully in time for the spring. I miss their burgers and shakes!

Was excited to see that this location was open again until I went there. Definetely not the place I fell in love with years ago. Got the chicken basket. Girlfriend got a burger basket. The wait time was close to 25 minutes and the bill was close to $40 even without the tip that the POS tablet tries to guilt you in to. The girlfriend said that the burger was good. I though it was ok. I used to like the chicken strips basket, but they have really cheaped out on the chicken. Frozen, breaded, extruded meat that tastes like nothing and has a slightly "pre-chewed" mouth feel has replaced the chicken strips that they used to offer at half the price. The tots were good, the fries were a little soggy and sad. The girlfriend got friend pickles. All of the fried stuff tasted like fish. The employees were the standard minimum wage slaves. Behind that forced superficial smile you could see that they were underpaid, overworked, and would rather be literally anywhere but there. I can't say I blame them. The old Mikes Drive In that offered twice the quality at half the price will be sorely missed.

Convenience, not quality. We were glad to see them re-open and braved the crowd to go grab dinner. Keeping in mind this is a burger stand, your expectations should be on convenience, not quality, speed, or even price. Our fish and chips were made with pre-formed & machine-breaded bulk frozen fillets, not thickly battered hand-dipped crunchy pieces of cod like you might imagine. The tartar sauce was not far off from plain mayonnaise, with just a hint of the tartar sauce flavors. Good fries and tasty coleslaw though. Maybe the burgers are different, fresh instead of frozen. After all, this is a burger joint. But truth be told you could make just as good eats with food from the Safeway freezer section. Do go, get a burger when you don't feel like cooking, but maybe skip the fish & chips.

Great customer service. Good American fried food. Cheap, worth the stop. Perfect for warm summer night

Mediocre food, awful service, and unnecessary long waits because of inefficiency with like 10 people working there. Will NOT be going back. Whoever the manager at that place is needs to understand how to create a process that informs people of wait times based on what they are ordering!

We ordered two burgers ala cart. The phone order was ready when promised. Next time I will ask them to hold the pickles on their blue cheese burger as they didn't go with the sandwich

So I've grown up eating mikes my whole life and this location has always been the best one especially with the best employee Snowcloud not sure he still works there but he is the best employee they've have ever had so let's talk about how this place shut down for remodeling. I do like the new look at the place even though they didn't do anything about the bathrooms that I noticed which I think would've been a major part of the remodel, but I don't go there to take a shit this place was one of my most favorite burgers in Olive, Oregon, although lately I feel that they've dropped the ball. The burgers are old dried out and pre-cooked the special sauce that they put on there has absolutely no flavor. It taste like mayonnaise. And this is not the same old Mike's burger that I grew up with. I have eaten it all of the locations and I couldn't wait for this one to open back up and now it's just as crappy as the other ones Oregon has been OK but the Tacoma location was pretty good until they shut it down and that new one they opened up out in, disgusting not to mention the table sit outside where rats run all over the place and try to take your food while you eat it. It was pretty disgusting and gross food that I wish they would get their shit together because I really miss a good old-fashioned, Mike's burger from my childhood And just wish I could get the same thing by someone who put a little effort into it or cared about their job and what they do but I guess people just don't give a shit anymore

Super dry burgers no mayo or ketchup. Stale buns. Stale fries. Overpriced. Long wait. Id rather go to McDonalds and i never go there. Spent $60 , called to let them know, to make it fresh or a refund and they were rude WHAT HAPPENED? I LOVED THE OLD MIKES!

In the area for a baseball game and drove by and decided to give it a try. My husband used to eat here when he used to work out here and said it used to be good. Food was good, loved the fries and the burger and the fact it came in a meal with cookies too and prices not bad at all! It was busy and the parking lot is small and a little chaotic but that's what happens I guess with good food! We will definitely be back even though we don't live close but it's worth a trip.

Extraordinarily classic but amazing drive in. It really is an ICON... kicking butt and taking names... I think there's more than one location (I think I'm oregon city) but I've only gone to the 1 near Milwaukee. Look just think tater tots, corn dogs, fried pickles, skinny fries, and fried mushrooms. At least those are my favorites. You can also get plank fries skinny fries hamburgers for anybody and everybody with any toppings or no toppings. There are seafood options including fried clams. You can get shakes and malts and Sundaes of various flavors including Some seasonal favorites. Soft serve and hand scooped options. Every year on their anniversary they do amazing deals and specials. There's also a once a year special they do on gift cards which is pretty sweet. This year it was 40% off. You do only have 6 months to use them but who can't do that at a place like this??? The line is almost always long but if you don't need to do too many special requests it certainly is easy to place an order online. They also have some cups mugs bottle openers hats and shirts I believe. I always feel like my food is definitely made fresh. During the summer this can be really busy at lunch time and is a great place to go and sit at some picnic tables they have. Parking is strangely plentiful considering the location. It's kind of an icon in this area. And frankly I understand why but I always like to MA and PA diner type places. I've never had a problem with any of the food and the pricing is actually not terrible considering what pricing is going on now. This most recent time I got a float as well as a shake and frankly they were both pretty good. Too much ice cream not enough soda in the float but that's OK live and learn. Basically if you like greasy diner food this is the place for you. I have heard that their seafood spectacular specials are amazing. If you're into that hurry and go check it out. I've heard the shrimp is absolutely fantastic.

We had been Mike's fans for decades and were eager to see the old place open up again. WE WERE DISAPPOINTED at almost everything we had. The end result was we spent nearly $40 and got less in value, amount and taste than if we'd spent $25 at McDonalds, and without spoiled lettuce on our burgers!!! Check and SMELL your food before you leave the place. The building was rebuilt well and kept its old ambiance. They used to have salt, pepper, and ketchup nearby if you wanted but no longer. Nor did they ask you if you'd like any condiments. They skimped on everything. My burger basket ($14.95 bacon burger ) and my wifes cheeseburger, contained a small ( like a McDonalds Jr. burger ) dry burger, old dry bun, and spoiled shredded lettuce. I had to scrape the lettuce off the burger on the road and it stunk up the car like a garbage can. Someone cooking or prepping lost their sense of smell? I wish I'd have checked my food before we left!!!!! The fried pickles ( $6.95 ) were pretty good. The tots that came with the "basket" amounted to about 14-16 in a little paper pocket, same with the wifes onion rings which we saw the worker carefully weigh them out. Nothing like it used to be. We asked the server what the difference was between the hard ice-cream shake and the soft shake. She could not articulate any difference except one was a dollar more. We may try them again in six months and we'll try Mike's in Oregon City to see if they've turned bad.

We saw this place when we arrived in Portland a few days ago. We saw on their sign they had Huckleberry Shakes and Sundaes and stopped in on our way back to the airport. This location is right on a corner and once you pull in the parking lot there is a lot of room for parking and outside seating. You need to either place your order via phone, online or at the counter outside. At each parking spot, they have large QR code signs that you can scan with your phone's camera and pull up a menu. We decided to walk up to the counter where we could check out the menu without scrolling on our phones. We each ordered a small huckleberry milkshake and we thought we ordered two bacon cheeseburgers with one order of seashore plank fries. Our order number was called and we went to the window to pick it up. We grabbed the milkshakes, the paper bag and went to our car to eat. The huckleberry milkshakes were fabulous. The flavor was delicious. There were even whole huckleberries mixed in! When we opened the paper bag at our car, there was only one bacon cheeseburger and one order of seashore plank fries. We checked the order slip on the bag and sure enough, there was only one bacon cheeseburger on it. After thinking about, I thought they were confused when we placed our order but we did not ask to have our order repeated. We ended up sharing the burger and fries which was enough for each of us anyway. Overall it was a good experience and we will definitely be back when we are in Portland! We can't pass up a real huckleberry milkshake, our on regret is not getting the large.

Shakes!! Another family favorite of mine for the past 30 years!! Love the milk shakes and burgers. Today was all about the shakes. Marion-berry yummy!!

So happy Milwaukie is open again. Food is fantastic as usual. Service was very polite and convenient.

Classic old school burgers and vibe! The first time I tried to come here it was almost a 1.5 hour wait and the parking lot was completely full so needless to say I did not get burgers that visit. This time around, we called ahead and to our surprise they said the wait time was only 15-20 mins so we had to make our move! We got there and our order was already ready too so I think we got lucky with timing just before the dinner rush on a Friday night. I will preface this by saying if you're looking for a gourmet burger or anything too fancy that is not what Mike's is. I won't say it's the best burger I've ever had but it satisfied a classic burger craving but can be on the higher price of the scale but I do think you're paying for the scene. This time around we got a classic cheeseburger, swiss & mushroom burger, side of fries, and a side of their clam strips with a large marshmallow & cookies/cream milkshake. For the burgers a nice sized patty on a sesame bun. Could be a little more seasoned but enjoyed the shaved lettuce vs. a full on slice of lettuce. The sesame bun held up well and kept everything together. The swiss is also a nice option for burgers if you want to try something than the usual. Fries here were yummy! We got them a little cold since they finished before we arrived but super thin and crispy. Clam strips were mehh so would pass on them next time as they were too battered. The winner in my book was the milkshake! Either the oreo or marshmallow would have been good but together they were delicious! Would get the same flavor combination next time.

Ehhh I feel like I'm trying to be a bit nice with this place... The food is not a 3 star, but bang for your buck just isn't here... It's got the classic vibe, window service, and absolutely the highest prices in the 'classic burger joint' category in my opinion... Now I know prices are going up across the board, but when you're getting over 10 bucks for a burger without fries, you have to really deliver... Especially since I went to another (smash) burger place where it's got an amazing similar sized burger for 5 bucks (and I won't lie, it's one of if not the best in town) but I wanted to see what the customer appreciation day... Grabbed some half off vouchers and some wooden coins for soft serve. Nabbed a cherry come float and really haven't had a cherry come inayne 15 years and boy oh boy did the kids dig it. Granted I didn't go deep on the menu, what I had at full price didn't wow me, and I don't fully understand the hyoe, but since I have gift certs to blow here... I'll rereview as I make my way through the menu... Should it be a 3 star... Maybe

After my recent experiences here, I wasn't planning on coming back. Then I needed to get lunch on Labor Day since I just got back from a trip and I didn't have anything to eat for lunch, Given that it's a holiday, I was expecting a long wait. I ordered online and walked up to the pick up area even though I was early. Checked my phone and saw a text from four minutes prior stating that my food was ready. I only had to wait a minute or so in line. The employee found the food right away and offered ketchup/mustard. The food (burger & fries) was hot and fresh. I got the gluten free bun I asked for and it was only $1 more. The ordering website has improved. It's more visually appealing, easier to navigate and easier to place an order. I still think Mike's needs to get better about customer service/responding to reviews and accessibility. Plus there's one employee who mumbled when making loud speaker announcements rendering them indecipherable. But overall, I had a good experience and will go back.

I have to love Mike's Drive In. It's nostalgia for me. If you're from here, you KNOW this place is home. Yes, it's almost absurdly expensive, especially some items more than others on the menu..but, for the craving, there's a few things that set them apart & keep you coming back. For example, the fries are delicious & you can grab a cheap vanilla cone to enjoy with. Perfect. The fried pickles?! My absolute favorite (when they actually have them). Their endless shake flavors are fun and rotate seasonally. It gets very busy here, but they keep service as fast as they can and always friendly.

We parked, ordered, and paid on toasttab. It was so convenient. Order took about 15-20 but it felt sooner than that. The burger was juicy and delicious. Fries were a bit cold, still crispy. If they were hotter it would have been perfect. The ranch was really good! Can't wait to go back.

I'm sure it's nothing new for the folks around this place. This is an old school burger joint with no frills, nothing froo froo and awesome burgers. Going here for a quick Saturday night dinner date. Did t disappoint!

Called in to get a milkshake. We were out on hold and 8 minutes later we hung up. My kids had the milkshakes and said they were not very good. The chocolate peanut butter was bitter. They thought they must have changed the chocolate sauce to a dark chocolate.

After hearing this restaurant mentioned on the radio I figured I'd give it a try. Upon pulling up I was surprised by the vintage look of the restaurant which was pretty cool since they truly over a drive in experience. You can order from your phone and wait in the car or go up to the cashier and order there. Various menu items which was nice as well. I got the deluxe cheeseburger with fries and onion rings. Overall the food was good, nothing outstanding (in my personal opinion) but would still make for a nice, greasy summer date. The burger was tasty and did not taste artificial m, the fries were average, but the onion rings were very good. They had a beer battered taste, but slightly too greasy and on the soggier side. The Oreo milkshake was also very good. This isn't the best burger spot that I've been to, but I would come back here again.

Not your typical drive thru. Thank the kitchen gods for that. The food takes a bit, but not like your typical drive thru the food is fresh and plentiful. It isn't cheap either, but that's because of the quality. I don't know anyone who has a sandwich here (burger or other) that will leave hungry. And it you make it a basket, whooo boy. Pair it with a shake and you won't be walking home you'll be too stuffed. Call ahead or order online if you're in a rush, but however you do it I think you'll be happy you got a meal here.

Got a coupon in the local saver magazine. Went for the seafood event. It was decent. Pretty good size portion for what you pay. Next time if I go back I'll try a burger and shake. They have a large shake menu.

Made it over tonight for the first time. Obviously very popular for locals. They are handling covid restrictions very well. Currently all seating is outside. Spacing, measuring and the lines are marked clearly. I didn't feel like a burger tonight- so I had a Reuben and onion rings. Both were excellent. My only minor critique of the reuben was there were a few spots with either all pastrami or sauerkraut. Other than that is was great! Onion rings were perfectly battered, fried, crispy and soft all at once. Among my favorites with Helvatia tavern. The platter comes with a choice of cookie, slaw, or i think they said potato salad. I had the slaw, really good. Tastes like there is horseradish in it which I love. I also had a Butterfinger Milkshake. Yes it tasted like a liquid Butterfinger. If that is your candy of choice you will love it. Great first impression for me.

My wife saw an indication that one of Mikes' temporary featured flavors was licorice ice cream. We made the trip (finding out along the way that the Sellwood location no longer exists). Fortunately, the Milwaukie location is going strong. This is a real piece of Americana - with a bowling alley across the street, train tracks that run alongside the edge of the parking lot, ads painted on the windows (not sure if it was Scot Campbell's work, but the retro vibe works), and, most importantly, quality food that's made to order. The licorice lover in my family was thrilled with her ice cream, while I was very impressed with a soft serve sundae made with Ghirardelli dark chocolate and caramel. Current Covid procedures do not allow dining inside, so my only concern would involve a visit when it's rainy - there's a covered sidewalk that can easily be full of people waiting to place an order. So, once you've ordered, it may be hard to stay dry while waiting for your food to cook. And, yes, I firmly believe the quality of Mike's offerings is well worth the wait.

I look really stoned because the cheese on this veggie burger is so Oregon (Tillamoooooook) freshhhh, I can taste the grass the cow ate! Donnie, the main impetus for this review, is a fabulous rep for the Mike's brand, being helpful as heck while we built the perfect dinner together, and I hadn't even read the menu, to be honest. Just cheerful, excellent, knowledgeable service and a great burger as a direct result! And tater tots. And a cookie. So yeah, you should really pull up, son, pull up!

Went for a burger & milk shake with high hopes after two days of no solid food (colonoscopy prep). I couldn't tell from the online menu whether their shakes were soft serve or real ice cream. I called & they said "We do both, however you want". I ordered the Special Deluxe burger and doubled the meat. It was incredibly dry with no meat taste at all. Very disappointing. My wife ordered the Blues Bacon burger, equally disappointingly dry, but did taste of blue cheese (I tasted it). Each ordered a milkshake, although I'm still dumbfounded that a "vanilla" shake was not available. At the order taker's suggestion I ordered a Cookies & Cream, which as she said was "mostly vanilla". I should have ordered a Cookies & Cream minus the Cookies & Cream. Didn't have the texture I expect from real ice cream. All in all, not worth the five minute drive after my colonoscopy. Next time, I'll go to a KillerBurger.

If you order online just wait at window 3 make sure you stand at the window or they'll ignore you. Their waiting line is so unorganized. Also, be prepared for rude customer service. Don't get me wrong burgers are good but not worth it if you gotta deal with rude restaurants employees. The Ambiance is alright but not great.

Doesn't seem the same as before. Ordered 2 cheeseburgers with fries. Received 2 burgers, no cheese although we emphasized cheese. Once we noticed there was no cheese we went to counter to let them know...they gave us 2 slices of cheese in a wrapper? Anyway, it also took a long time to initially receive the order although few others were there. Sorry to complain, I guess everyone has a 'off' day but I probably won't be back for awhile

My husband I stopped by to get our dinner and here is what happened 1. We got in line to order and waited about 10 min before the guy acknowledged us. 2. When he acknowledged us he said "I'm counting the til". And there are 2 windows but only one taking orders. 3. Then he said it was shift change...still waiting to order. When we finally ordered and paid we waited for our food. When we got our food I assumed the man checked our order. When we got home we did not have a small fry withe the burger and no cocktail sauce for the shrimp. Overall not happy with the service for ordering. During shift change maybe you should have someone helping take orders and the other counting.

The highs: the older gentleman cashier was awesome. Explained the menu so well and made sure I was getting the best deal during the happy hour deal. The fries (steak cut) for an extra 90 cents were surprisingly delicious. Their fry sauce is delicious and the honey mustard was solid too. The root beer float was only $1.50 during happy hour and was delicious. The environment is also very clean and well kept! The okays: tater tots were whatever. Nothing too crazy or special. The burger. I think we got the mikes special or something like that. Not bad for the price. Not sure if I'm craving it or dying to have it again. But it satisfied the burger urge. The lows: they charge for sauce. Honestly kind of annoying. The hot dog was a big no. It wasn't warm at all. Probably better off going to Costco. The bun was just super soggy and the whole thing was just unappetizing. They were also out of fried pickles and onion rings. Which I feel like are staples on their menu. The line to order was so long and the food took forever to come out.

I've been going to Mike's for 25 years. Never an issue. Hence why I've kept going back. But Tuesday was enough to never return. Ordered a burger basket with a side of tater tots. Burger... wrong, soggy, and raw patty. Fries, old.... limp....Tater tots? Not done, soggy and nasty. And my drink? Completely flat....not a bubble in it....and warm! Thank you very much for all the good years, but never again.

Old school burger joints and diners are some of my favorite things in life. Not many of them left unfortunately. So when I come across one, I get excited. I got what I usually get at these kind of spots, my standard benchmark, a cheeseburger, fries, and soda. Solid solid stuff and filled my craving. This place does get busy, so make sure you have time to wait for your food.

We went only for the soft serve ice cream. It's smooth and creamy rich with no artificial taste. Quite scrumptious!

This local burger joint has been kicking butt even during COVID times. They just recently added online ordering a few months ago and I believe it's the prefer way to order. Waiting in line to order can be tough at times, families take too long to order and such. When ordering online, it's pretty easy to pick it up at the window when it's ready and less hassle. Tuesday's work best for online ordering since they have HH and family deal day. I get so much food including free soft serve with each meal. I like to upgrade to a milkshake for a little bit more for a special treat. During the summer, there is plenty of spaced outdoor seating to eat comfortably. Their burgers are cooked to order and there everything is made fresh. I like the jalapeno burger and their special deluxe. The half pound burger is pretty good size and will definitely fill you up. There is something for everyone and plenty of treats to devour. You can call ahead too but online ordering is so much easier and quicker. I do miss their other location that closed recently due to condo building B.S. but alas glad they are still going strong at this location and the one in Oregon City, cheers!

I saw you opened a new restaurant in Tigard. . I can't believe with your craptastic service, cold and slimy halibut and congealed fries, warm and melted milkshakes that people wait over an hour to get, along with backtalk from anyone who DARES to ask an employee where their food went, even when order numbers far newer than mine were served and got to enjoy their meal and go home...that you can even afford to open another. Have you ever been to Big Jim's in The Dalles? You should go. Now that's a place to get a burger, fries and a nice COLD milkshake. And the staff SMILES and says HELLO when you approach to order or ask about your food. It's AMAZING. Look out Tigard, you will be wishing for a Burgerville or an In and Out Burger.

The burger basket you should pass on it 13$ for 8 tator tots and a very small inch of potato salad full cup of ice sodas burger patty is fast food thin like a McDonald's patty and they are unwilling to give very many condiments and cheese was barely melted on burger I want a refund got scammed

It's a classic staple piece! Shakes are delicious, experience is unique. Great food for fast food. Sweet employees. Great value.

STOP.... Wait a minute! This is what you guys would call good, fantastic and "you can't wait to go back and get some more of this garbage?" Look I have had burgers all over this country from DC to LA! This is not the joint, this is not the spot to stop. So here's what happen ! We actually went to this place because the guy at Dave's killer bread outlet store down the street told us "this was the business" , if you haven't had a Mike's burger you ain't lived. Well guess what, we bought it hook line and sinker ! I have to say we were excited about the menu, it looks fantastic and the lady was really cool behind the counter. That is why they get two stars not one. I mean considering we're in the middle of this damn pandemic and everybody's wearing a mask that make you sound like a bumbling fool. The customer service was fine. I have to say big boy at Dave's must have recently had Covid and his tastebuds went south "like all the l way south" down in his nuts! The issues: fries were cold and stale, Trust me we had all of them ; we had the regular fries, we had the tater tots and we also had sweet potato fries and then we ordered some onion rings that were unfortunately dripping grease, like my Target after I have BBQ Four racks of baby back ribs . Here is the clincher, when my son opened up his burger it was covered in mayo like they "opppps " dropped it in the mayo container! Then he took a bite, and then he spit it out because he looked at the middle of the burger and it was "raw red" we added a picture so y'all could look at it. Nobody told them to walk it through a warm room. So we figured when you order a burger, it usually arrives cooked! This isn't the type of place where they say, "would you like it medium rare!" Obviously they didn't see the news flash when those guys down the street at Jack in the crack, experienced a nice big fat lawsuit after somebody got E. coli from seriously undercook bun binder like 20 something years ago and died ! So take it from me, I wouldn't give them a dime of my hard erand money. Go pick up some ground Chuck at the grocery store all the Fixin's and make your own burger at home! P.S. The shakes were the best part... But you can't really fuck up ice cream can't you?

I've been eating at Mike's for 20+ years but ever since they left Sellwood and consolidated their operation in Milwaukie, their food and service has completely tanked. Tonight we tried ordering on line from home but it was not working. We tried calling multiple times and kept getting voicemail so we drove there to order. I stood in line for 25 minutes to order. When I finally get to the window, the person working closed the window and answered the phone. I waited another 8 minutes before the window opened again. Then I waited for another 30 minutes to get my order. We ordered four burgers with bacon. ALL of the bacon was under cooked & not edible! It's really unfortunate how far downhill Mikes has gone. Definitely not worth the $$ any longer. I'll take my business to Burgerville.

I heard that Mike's Drive-In has pumpkin soft serve, so I had to come check it out! We only planned to grab the pumpkin soft serve, but their food menu looked so tempting. I saw that you can order online and pick it up, so we might have to do that the next visit. When I got the two pumpkin soft serve on a cake cone (they also serve it on a waffle cone if you're interested), I was super impressed by the size and the price that we paid! When I tasted the ice cream, I felt a sense of pure joy! The pumpkin soft serve ice cream was cream, full of pumpkin spice flavors, and held a certain quality incomparable to other soft serve ice cream places. I was satisfied and now dreaming of my next soft serve cone!

Three separate times we have ordered online. Each time we were missing food ( from fries to burgers). A copy of the order was taped to the bag, but they clearly did not QC the order to make sure the order was correct. When we called them they said because it was ordered online it was not their responsibility. Then who the hell makes the food and bags it to go? They need to get a new robot, because it clearly has a loose screw. The humans need to be replaced too, because they are no better help.

This place was Quite Busy on a sunny Wednesday evening. We Beat the rush around 630pm. There's only 3 outside bench seating but we had our dog so it was nice to sit outside. The menu print above the order line is a little Hard to see. We ordered the Wallawalla burger. It was ok but wish it came with fries! The Lamb gyro was small compared to Food cart gyros for sure. The thick Soft serve hit the spot! The seasonal soft serves seem to be very popular so we may be back to try that. There's plenty of extra parking on gravel and location is on a busy highway.

Mikes is a Portland staple. I love the shakes, burgers, and deep fried mushrooms. Yes this place is overpriced but I do enjoy the classic 50's vibe this place has. I will be back as it is a favorite that my wife and I both enjoy. Support local and enjoy. Sometimes they have long lines but it has always been worth the wait. Delicious!!!

Delicious cheeseburger! Ordered ahead of time and picked up at the window. Glad I did as there always seems to be a line :)

As a local who can walk here, I have the privilege of letting Mike's do the cooking some nights. Never disappoints. My faves are the Swiss & Mushroom Burger, the Deluxe Burger and the Halibut Platter. Always with Tater Tots & Coleslaw. Often with a Root Beer Float. Snag the Huckleberry or Marionberry sundaes or shakes when they are in season while supplies last. Happy to see this place thrive throughout the pandemic. They adapted and made it work with the online ordering and added socially distanced tables out back. Keep up the great work Mile's crew. We in the neighborhood appreciate you.

While this place is very popular, surely for good reasons, I found it very underwhelming. Have heard about it for years. Waited almost 20 minutes to get my very simple order and the burger was not anywhere near the quality I had hoped for after reading the reviews. Very disappointing experience, but wish them luck for continued strong business.

Unfortunately Mike's was very busy and the only menu they have is a large sign with a million different items to order and at least with my partners and my own eye sight we couldn't read the menu with a hill of beans. Especially with how the sun was shining on the menu sign. I got the attention of one of the staff asking for a paper menu so we could hopefully figure out what we might want to order? But they have no other menus other then their huge sign with more words written on it then the holy Bible has! We gave up and went to another place to get our food. It's a sad shame too, I been going to Mike's at this location when it was the first and only Mike's anywhere. Before the original owner passed away and his employee inherited the business. Even after the employee took over the business still did very well for quite some time. It was never like it was today? I'm really so disappointed in Mikes! Afraid I won't be going back again after this incident today. But curious if their burgers are still good or not? Use to love their food. Sad to see this honestly

This here joint seems somewhat historical to local Milwaukie peeps. Lol. Been hearing raaaave reviews since the late 90's. Let's not do the math. Since moving to the area, I decided to do what the locals do and Mike's Drive-In is it y'all. Came here on a Tuesday eve and later saw on receipt savings of $5 on burger baskets and shakes. Wha-wha-wha-whaaaaat. Deals! It was def worth the calories splurge. Burgers are classic good, fries portion just enough to accompany meal without over stuffing and...drum roll please...you get to choose from cookie, tater salad or in house made coleslaw. The slaw was mucho good. Wonder what other deal specials they have on diff days of the week.... Oh I also saw they have soft serve cones for $1. Yeaaaaah boyyyy. Forget McD's when you got Mike's.
