Fairly deep menu of the usual variety of burgers, with &#8220;Mike&#8217;s Special Deluxe&#8221; topping the price chain.  (Burger with bacon, cheese, fried egg and thousand island).   Food cooked to order, so be prepared to w-a-i-t for it, w-a-i-t for it.   Combo gives you sandwich, fries, small drink, and slaw or cookie option.  Variety of hand-scooped milk shakes, &#8220;regular&#8221; and &#8220;old-fashioned&#8221; (I didn&#8217;t ask).<\/p>\n<p>Ordered a bacon cheeseburger,  plain, side of tots, and chocolate shake.   About $9.  Patty is very thin, probably 3 ounces, but was very similar to Fatburger (crispy edges), which I like.  Funny, the investment fund that owns Fatburger is located here, but the closest outlet is Seattle.   Bun was toasted, tots crispy, shake creamy.  I&#8217;d return.    Menu sign also says they feature pastrami.   Odd combo.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" marginheight=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=Mike's+Drive+In&amp;sll=45.444173,-122.725947&amp;sspn=0.009198,0.017359&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=45.48192,-122.638321&amp;spn=0.073521,0.138874&amp;z=13&amp;iwloc=A&amp;cid=6268448138168326021&amp;output=embed\"><\/iframe><br \/><small><a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&amp;source=embed&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=Mike's+Drive+In&amp;sll=45.444173,-122.725947&amp;sspn=0.009198,0.017359&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=45.48192,-122.638321&amp;spn=0.073521,0.138874&amp;z=13&amp;iwloc=A&amp;cid=6268448138168326021\" style=\"color:#0000FF;text-align:left\">View Larger Map<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/mikes1-PNG.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/mikes1-PNG.png\" alt=\"mikes1 PNG\" title=\"mikes1 PNG\" width=\"600\" height=\"390\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1091\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/mikes3-png.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/mikes3-png.png\" alt=\"mikes3 png\" title=\"mikes3 png\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1092\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/24\/282357\/restaurant\/Sellwood-Moreland\/Mikes-Drive-in-Portland\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mike's Drive-in on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/282357\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Local chain of mom &#038; pop style burger places, this one (Sellwood) safely housed in former A&#038;W, by all appearances.
