How PDX Sliders won locals’ hearts
PDX Sliders began in Portland’s Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood, delighting taste buds with mini masterpieces on brioche buns.
By 2017, the buzz had grown so strong that brick-and-mortar locations opened on SE Bybee Blvd and SE Division St.
Sliders named after iconic Portland bridges like Sellwood and Hawthorne quickly became local favorites.
Awards followed, from Best Bite wins at Bite of Oregon to multiple Willamette Week runner-up spots for best burgers in 2022, 2024, and 2025.
Locals love the loaded fries and full-size options just as much as the mini sliders, turning casual bites into loyal obsessions.
Media features in outlets like National Geographic, Money.com, and Female Foodie cemented PDX Sliders as a must-visit for affordable, shareable feasts.
Today, it’s a staple for burger lovers seeking creativity, consistency, and crave-worthy flavors.
