Description

[edit]

PDX Sliders is a restaurant with three locations in Portland. The menu includes sliders and full-size burgers (with chicken, pork, or vegetables),[1] salads, loaded fries, and cocktails. The sandwiches are named after Portland bridges and streets. The Hawthorne has bacon, goat cheese, and strawberry preserves on brioche, and the Burlington has pecan-smoked pork.[2] The Sellwood has a beef patty, cheddar cheese by Beecher's Handmade Cheese, bacon, caramelized onions, butter lettuce, and aioli, on brioche.[3][4]

History

[edit]

PDX Sliders was owned by Ryan Rollins, who opened the business as a food cart in 2014. PDX Sliders began operating as a brick and mortar restaurant on Bybee Boulevard in southeast Portland's Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood on January 21, 2017.[3] In October, Rollins announced plans to expand to the former Sunshine Tavern space on Division Street in the Richmond neighborhood. He hoped to open by December 1.[5] The restaurant opened on December 8 with a seating capacity of approximately 45.[1] In September 2019, Drew Carney of KGW said PDX Sliders had "plans to unveil a third [location] by the end of the year".[6] Rollins died in 2023.[7]
