In accordance with health guidelines, the new location will require employees and customers wear protective masks until further notice. The restaurant will follow strict cleaning protocols in accordance with state recommendations.

This marks the brand's 10th company-owned location. There are three franchised restaurants plus two non-traditional stores in Providence Park and Moda Center. A fourth franchised location will open in Idaho before year-end bringing the total store count to sixteen as Killer Burger continues to expand throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond through strategic franchising.
