[Format & Space] Seat yourself*, review the menus at the table, order at the bar, they bring your food and drinks to your table. *Plenty of tables, some with long benches, others with chairs on the inside. There's also a large patio. This is a welcome and safe space. [Drinks] Right up front, I'm going to tell you I'm a lightweight. I'm allergic to alcohol, so I don't drink often. Here's one of the things I love about The 649. They have a fantastic selection of mocktails that are created with the same creativity, flair, and intention as a "leaded" cocktail. I appreciate that I get to participate and not be stuck with a lemonade, zero alcohol beer, or wine. So, HUZZAH for creating an inviting space for a non-drinker! There *are* times when I'm willing to risk the lobster-bod, itchiness, and stuffy nose and there are plenty of cocktails from which to choose! [Food] There's a nice selection of sharable plates and mains. I've personally tried the flatbread pizza, Bavarian pretzel, Cubano, and Brisket Press, all of which were delish. [Service] The service has always been fabulous. The staff are welcoming, friendly, and helpful. [Activities] There are a few TVs around the bar with sports. It was a great place to catch some of the World Cup games. Additionally, there are several games that you can borrow and play, which is a lot of fun. [Location] Tucked in a busy shopping center with Safeway as an anchor. Parking hasn't been super problematic yet, but based on one of the other reviewers (Ron R - loved your formatting too, so I borrowed it until we get rich text formatting or emojis!) I can see where it could be a challenge.

This I'd say, is a fantastic little hang out! Here's the 411 on The 649:…read more * Parking Situation * Although the location of The 649 is just "where the F" (eye-roller). Because it's somewhat hidden in the corner of a Safeway shopping plaza. Look for the Baskin Robbins or Wells Fargo ATM and your find it. Like other reviews, when busy, parking can be a bit horrendous. But in hindsight, I'm not gonna reduce a star just because of location. * Bar Food Menu & Dining * Their menu starts with shareable bites, like a pretzel, tacos, quesadilla, loaded nachos, and even a charcuterie plate. Slightly larger dishes would be their Cubano and Brisket Press sandwiches. They even have a few choices for soup and salads, and a couple of dessert items listed. Don't forget to check the chalkboard next to the bar for specialty dishes and drinks. As for dining-in, they've got sturdy wooden tables that can accommodate 4-8 people. Bar stools by the windows, and a fairly large outside patio area. And with the times I've been here, I've never seen a dirty table. Very well maintained (two thumbs up). A few TV monitors showing the game, but its not like a noisy sportsbar. * Drinks & Services* You've got your choice of craft beers that rotate like a standard tap room. They also have tasty seasonal cocktails, but their normal everyday cocktails are just as good. And if you're gonna have a charcuterie board, then you've got to offer a wine list option right? Well they got that too! One last thing to mention, they've got some top-shelf bourbon and whiskey. The 649 is a bar that offers it all! Service has also been welcoming and top-notch. I recall only been served by Rich, Steven, and Crystal, but they always seem to craft up some lovely cocktails. Or deliver some clean tasting everyday type of bar food as well. * Last Call * Normally in my reviews, I'd list every item that I've tried, with price included. But The 649 is such a unique type of bar experience that I feel you should try for yourself; To me, their offerings are reasonably priced. Dining in is nothing fancy, but service is excellent. It's a great hangout for a business date, of even after a first date. I've got nothing but love for local support!

Food wasn't bad so I'll definitely be back! There were a few micro charges that we didn't even think about when ordering (whipped cream on milkshake, 0.50 or some odd cents for tartar sauce) but otherwise it was a very pleasant experience. As someone who usually hates sauerkraut the Reuben was actually enjoyable which was a surprise to me. The place really captures the diner feel inside and out, I'm excited to try different menu options in the future.

They have a very ample menu. I was a little taken back by the pricing of the breakfast. Most meals were over 12 dollars, some standard meals as much as 24 dollars for a breakfast. I ordered a scrambled, it had eggs, veggies, cheese and potato's and jalapeños. It was a very large portion of food. My son had a pancake with eggs and bacon, he did not eat the rest of his bacon he said it had an odd taste. I would share that they have a huge menu with many options.

I surveyed the menu and went with a BBQ-y, cheesy and bacon-y burger...oh, and some fries. The food came out in short order. The fries were plentiful, hot and crisp.

The man behind the counter (and grill) was friendly, welcoming and helpful. All in all, a nice stop and an excellent dinner.

Folks, please indulge me with some real talk: I am a self-admitted "burger snob". Which is why I…read morethink plenty of places make a "good" burger, but very few make an "incredible" burger. This is why I'm very happy to report that Biggie's is serving up a legit, bonafide, INCREDIBLE burger! In fact, before I finish this review I'll just say it: Biggie's has now taken my #1 spot for "Best Burger this side of the Portland Metro area". The pictures I posted tell the story. It's a large, juicy, high-quality burger that is cooked to absolute perfection. This is a REAL smash burger, complete with the obligatory slight crispness on the burger's edges. I had previously thought that John's Marketplace made the best smash burger in the area (and they do make a very good burger), but Biggie's is another level of good. Burger perfection, really. Now, let's talk about the fries. Biggie's serves "battered fries". And I have to confess, dear reader...for years I have been petitioning both the United Nations and the International Criminal Court in The Hague to deem battered fries a "Crime against humanity". I mean, it's already a fried potato. A perfectly-sliced, perfectly-fried potato with just the right amount of salt is the very essence of a proper French fry. Yet some heathens (or probably Communists, most likely) think that BATTERING a French fry might be a good idea?!? No. Just no, no, NO!!! With that off my chest, it both pains me and wounds my inner child to confess that - as far as "battered fries" go - the fries served at Biggie's were pretty tasty. They are uniquely spiced in a way that doesn't overwhelm the actual fry, but does add some nice flavor. I would absolutely love it, and probably thereafter nominate Mr. Biggie for a Nobel Peace Prize, if he instead served hand-cut, never-frozen fries. Because those would compliment the amazing burger quite well. Alas, that would also take a lot of time and probably be expensive to do it right (meaning cooking those fresh fries in peanut oil). So, I will forgive the indiscretion of these "battered fries". I guess. Moving on, the price makes this meal (burger, fries, and a coke) a downright bargain. $14 for the whole combo! To put that in proper perspective, a disgusting 1/4 Pounder with cheese meal at McDonald's will cost you...almost $14. That's like asking, "For $14 sir or madam, would you like one of the finest burger combos to ever grace the Oregon Territory, or would you instead prefer a burger combo so foul that if I gave it to my dog, HE would call animal control to report ME for animal cruelty?" Suffice it to say...the choice is both stark and clear. Now, since I was "food high" after finishing this scrumptious burger, I decided to treat myself to a shake too. I figured if the shake was even half as good as the burger, it would be a winner and a must-have. And slap my a*s and call me Shirley...the shake is as good as the burger! Mother of God!! I swear, it's like the man running this place descended from some galaxy far beyond Andromeda for the sole purpose of making my life better. Jesus died for your sins. And Mr. Biggie came from who-knows-where to vehemently convince you, "If eating Biggie's Burgers is a sin, I'd be perfectly OK sharing a 2-bedroom apartment in Gresham with none other than Lucifer himself." Speaking of Mr. Biggie (I don't know his real name), I spoke with him for a short bit and he seemed really cool. Jovial, rightly proud of his burgers, and all around a righteous dude. He struck me as the type of guy for whom you really, really want to see him succeed. And to succeed, people like YOU need to go to Biggie's Burger's ricky tick tick! Like, right NOW! Put your phone down (you've been on it too much today anyway), take a shower for the first time since Burger King was still a prince, and get your burger-loving self to Biggie's! I promise, you will be better for it. I will be better for it. The entire WORLD will be better for it. So, why are you still reading?!? Didn't you see where I already told you to go?? Shoo! Get goin'! ¡Vamos! There, that's better.

The owner Helen's home made chili oil was a bit too spicy for me but my partner loved it. Oh -- I also did get the lemongrass steak bites to go, as they're a must-try but I wouldn't have had room for them. They prepared them rare so when re-heated at home they were perfect.
