Killer Burger Franchise Overview

About Killer Burger

Killer Burger is a family of rock and roll burger joints, devoted to making the perfect burger every time. They opened the first Killer Burger in Portland’s Hollywood District in 2010. Now we’ve got nine locations throughout Oregon and southwest Washington. Yes. Their burgers are that awesome.

Franchise History

Killer Burger grew out of a passion to introduce the hungry public to the way burgers used to be (and still should be). Ten years ago, our Founder, TJ Southard, realized that the burgers around him had changed so much from the diner burgers of his childhood. The growing trend of gourmet and fusion burgers was creating a product so distant from the original hamburger that they weren’t even recognizable anymore. This disconnect motivated TJ to make a change. Somebody had to do it.

On September 27, 2010, he opened the first Killer Burger in Portland, OR to introduce today’s customers to a new definition of what a burger should be. From then on, he set out to create the best burgers imaginable and serve them in a fun, party environment where customers could leave behind the agendas of the world and relax with great food and excellent service. Now with locations across Oregon and Southern Washington, more and more customers are experiencing the rebirth of the American burger and loving every bite of it.
