Champs Burgers

Champs Burgers is a beloved Portland food cart launched in 2023 by owners Sterling Houghton and Travis Wilshire, operating behind Away Days Brewing in the Brooklyn neighborhood. The smash burger cart stands out for house-baked milk buns, house-made American cheese crafted from Tillamook dairy, and inventive rotating specials like the lengua pastrami burger with fermented jalapeño Russian dressing. Portland Monthly has highlighted Champs among the city's best burgers, recognizing the cart's commitment to well-sourced ingredients and craft technique.
