Unexpected flavor combos and a menu full of satisfying favorites make this Eugene spot a must-visit. When hunger strikes, The Burger House is ready with burgers that are a little different, and totally crave-worthy.

At first glance, peanut butter and bacon on a cheeseburger sounds like something dreamed up at 2 AM during a kitchen raid. But one bite of the Peanut Butter Bacon Cheddar Burger from The Burger House in Eugene might just make a believer out of anyone.

This isn’t a gimmick burger, it’s a genuinely tasty surprise. The salty, smoky bacon plays off the creamy richness of the peanut butter, and somehow it all works. It’s not for the faint of heart, but those brave enough to try it often find themselves coming back for another round.

The Burger House has been flipping patties in Eugene since 2015, thanks to Jeffrey and Kathy Vogel, a husband-and-wife duo with deep roots in the fast food world. Before starting up their own burger spot, they spent nearly four decades working with Wendy’s, learning the ins and outs of the industry. With that much experience under their belts, it's clear they brought a strong foundation to their own little slice of burger heaven at The Burger House.

Located in the Delta Oaks area, The Burger House may not wow with its simple, no-frills seating, but it’s the kind of place where the food that lands on your tray makes up for the modest setting. The outdoor covered patio is a nice touch, especially on warmer days, and there’s a drive-thru for those on the go.

Beyond the peanut butter burger, there’s a full lineup of creative and hearty choices. The Smokehouse Bacon Cheddar Burger comes stacked with crispy battered onion rings. The Teriyaki Bacon Swiss layers in a juicy Dole pineapple slice, and the Sunrise Bacon Cheddar (a local favorite), makes use of a freshly cracked egg for that breakfast-meets-lunch vibe. For something with a bit of crunch and heat, the El Dorado Taco Cheddar burger has taco-seasoned beef, cheddar, jalapeño ranch, and a pile of Fritos right under the bun.

Their extensive menu is meant to satisfy customers and cravings, offering everything from chicken wraps, nuggets, and strips to onion rings, mozzarella sticks, jalapeño poppers, hot dogs and milkshakes.
