The Ville is under attack—and down goes the Burgerville on 122nd and Stark—the fast food restaurant at 122nd and Stark is permanently closed because of an expired lease, and t is now known which business will take its place. The new restaurant is a Mexican restaurant called Victorio's.

“Burgerville built all of its restaurants, and the restaurant at 122nd and Stark had been operating on that site since October 1973 when it was built,” said Director of Strategic Initiatives Hillary Barbour. “Burgerville does not own any of the properties on which it operates, and when its lease term expired on June 30, 2020, the restaurant fully closed.”

The Burgerville chain has been around since 1961. The first restaurant was located in Vancouver, WA. Since then, 46 other establishments have been built throughout Oregon and Washington.

For any other questions you may have you can contact a representative at the Burgerville blog.

"I live two blocks away from the Burgerville on 122nd and Stark. That Burgerville is one of the few restaurants/fast food that I eat. I rarely eat fast food. I am very upset that it closed for good. I know it didn't get a lot of customers, but I was one of the few that went. Now that it's closed, I have to figure out how to go to the next Burgerville. I remember going there and drinking their hazelnut milkshake, and now I have to take 20 to 30 minutes out of my day to go to the nearest Burgerville to get my milkshake."

"I feel it's really unfortunate that it closed because it was such a good restaurant and I loved the food. It's so sad, but I can't wait to see what they turn that space into."
