5 Best Restaurants in Hillsboro, Oregon You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Hillsboro, Oregon — a city where the Tualatin Valley rolls green and generous beneath a sky that always seems to be shifting, where the scent of cedar mingles with the aroma of roasting coffee, and where neighborhoods are stitched together by the laughter of children, the hum of tech workers, and the quiet pride of families who have called this place home for generations. Here, glass towers rise beside berry fields, and food trucks park in the shadow of historic storefronts, each corner humming with the stories of newcomers and old-timers alike.

Astoria’s Buoy Beer’s long, sad farewell

In the end, few Astorians thought the homegrown brewery’s exit was much of a surprise. There were too many warning signs and not nearly enough evidence of a turnaround. After 13 years, Buoy Beer Co. has stopped brewing. The name will live on in a few select beers, but the people who built Buoy will have nothing to do with it.

We Ranked Oregon’s 8 Best Burger Spots, And The Final Cut Might Surprise You

One burger in this state comes topped with peanut butter, raspberry sauce, bacon, and provolone. I had to read that menu line twice before I believed it. That same Oregon kitchen also works with meats like bison and kangaroo. Meanwhile, a coastal shack pairs grass-fed patties with pinball and pool. And a food truck makes its own buns, then sends you off with bread pudding.

Oregon Pie Factory Sells Its Own Bakery Favorites Directly to Shoppers

A pie company with more than 200 employees runs its own country store right on a working family berry farm. That alone made me stop scrolling. The farm behind it has grown crops for almost a century. The pie business started in 1999 as a backyard berry operation and cannery-style warehouse.

Oregon Has a Vietnamese Restaurant Where the Rice Noodles Are Made Fresh by Hand Every Morning

Most noodle soups in America start with a dried brick of rice noodles pulled from a box. One Portland kitchen skips that shortcut and leans into the slower, older way of doing things. The result is a dining room that fills up fast, a line that often reaches the door, and a menu built around the cooking of Northern Vietnam, a style that is surprisingly hard to find in the United States.

8 Oregon Restaurants Worth Planning a 2027 Road Trip Around

A massive 26-to-30-ounce steak is one of only two main choices at a certain dinner stop on this list. The other choice is a whole roasted chicken, served to one person. That spot sits off a forest service road in the Oregon high desert, and you need a reservation to eat there. I love that a meal this huge waits somewhere this quiet. Another pick serves a mushroom-forward tasting menu inside an 1859 farmhouse.
