Update: This restaurant revamped a bit and is now Outpost 30 - Burger Barn. Whereas the menu struggled before with hotdogs being the main focus, it's now delicious burgers and other delectable options. I thouroughly enjoyed the 'Western Burger' with it's crispy onion rings and BBQ sauce, the side of fries were also crunchy with just the right amount of salt. With the new menu and good eats, it's much harder to fault this place, the only weakness is the price of burgers being in the same range as Five Guys but with less customization. The interior is roomy and invokes a 'Route 66’ vibe with modern touches. There's a lot of attention to little details like customized stickers and signs, the eatery even has tables with Checkers bags if you have time for a game or two. I may have been too hasty in my initial judgement of the joint, but the owners and cooks have really pulled through to make this a worthy stop if you need a bite.

Let me just put it like this. You can drive a long ways out highway 30 from Portland you can go all the way to the beach! And you'll never find a spot more tasty to stop on that long drive than this little gem right here! Great job by Sean and his family not only in the remodeling that they did but in the amazing quality of the food. They have a great grasp of what people want and we had great veggie burger as well as the All-American classic. The fries were amazing and I sample the local brew. This is an area I'm doing a lot of real estate working right now so you can bet I'll be bringing my best clients out here. I've already told a couple of people to head out there for the day and enjoy the countryside and make sure they stop so kudos! Or hoping to do some photography there help him show off the great facility and food that you and the family are putting out. It's really special! And those of you that know me know I don't give out that high or recommendation easily. If and when I do start a restaurant this will be the kind of place I will try to emulate. It was that good!

Pizzas were yummy, I am excited for more options. Thin crust really isn’t my thing, but I still thought they were delicious. My hubby loved the clam chowder. I preferred the cheese bread that didn’t have the sauce on it.

Inflation has not stopped here! We both ate for 16! Very cool place and yummy food. We each had a burger and fries. Service was excellent. Restaurant was clean. I can’t even tell you how many times I have passed this place, never again. Definitely will return.

Clean place, nice and friendly staff. The crispy chicken sandwich was pretty ordinary. I would ask for lettuce if I ordered again. Fries were very good, as was the tarter sauce (for the fries). There will be a next time. I will give something else a try.

Best damn garlic bread it knocked my socks off! I love the atmosphere. Not a lot of options as far as the “quickee mart “ side but they cover the basics water, beer, chips, candy. Extensive food menu and high quality food. Nice indoor eating area as well as tables outside. The lady at the counter was friendly and didn’t mind all my oooing and awing.

The pizza is great! Burgers are hot and fresh. The fries are tasty. Epic awesomeness. The staff is friendly and has great customer service. They accidently overcharged us (we literally had no idea) and gave the 3 back, even though we wouldn't have even known that we were overcharged.

I usually don't write reviews on restaurants, but I wanted to take a second and share my thoughts on this one. As you make your way down the Oregon side of the mighty Columbia River on Highway 30, you'll find this little gem a few miles east of Rainier, Oregon. It's a key stop anytime our family heads to the coast or visits relatives in the Rainier, Clatskanie area. As you walk in, you'll first note how clean the site is. Great effort has gone into creating a welcoming and entertaining environment. The food is always fantastic, and no matter what we order, the meal is perfect. Especially the clam chowder. On occasion, the owners will be on-site, and it will make sense as to why their staff is personable, helpful, and driven to offer excellent service. The Outpost 30 team is a local restaurant we are happy to support anytime we are in the area. Hope you'll check them out.
