We care. And we want to put our care into action. There are specific days when specific people eat for free. There are also those that always receive a discount or even free food all the time.
MEMORIAL DAY:
To honor the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military: family members of anyone who gave their life while serving our country will eat for free on Memorial Day. Family members include those who served alongside them during their service, their parents, siblings, spouse, children, grandchildren. Approaching Memorial Day, we will ask for people to share a photo of the loved one they lost (though this isn’t a requirement). To claim this free meal, we just ask you to tell us the name and branch of service of your loved one lost during military service. We humbly thank you for their service and sacrifice.
FIRST RESPONDER DAY
September 11
All First Responders eat for free all day on September 11. First Responders are individuals who in the early stages of an incident are responsible for the protection and preservation of life, property, evidence, and the environment. Basically, they run in when everyone else is running out. We want to step up on this day and say, “Thank you. Thank you for being willing to put yourself in harm’s way for us. Thank you for risking your health and safety on our behalf.”

CANCER (AND SIMILAR) PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES
If you are undergoing treatment for cancer or a similar condition, we’d like to bless you with free meals during this time. We’ve been there in our own family. We were blessed by others during our journey and want to pay it forward. When you have to travel to Portland for treatment (as we did), we want to take a small amount of the burden off of you and feed your family. If you are drained by all that accompanies walking alongside a loved one through their journey, we are here for you in the form of lunch or dinner for you and your family, on us. Or if you are the patient, fighting this fight, we’d like to be a blessing to you- come, eat at Portland Burger when you’re able. We’ll take care of the cost. You’ve got enough going on otherwise. We’ve got the food and drink covered. And we’d like to connect with you and get to know you if only just a little bit. We’d also like to ask your permission to add you and your loved one to our prayers.
