Bonanza Drive-Up — Restaurant in Cottage Grove

I was in town for an insurance inspection and decided to check out a local burger stand to formally cross Cottage Grove off of the Great Oregon Burger Bucket List. Bonanza Drive-Up looked great, so I headed downtown to check it out.

Cool vibe, really well set up for drive through and summer walk up. Crinkle cut fries were delicious, little salty but goes perfectly with the homemade fry sauce.

Dr. Pepper was flat and watered down, they need to adjust the syrup and carbonation.

Had the bullseye burger (fresh meat, they have different menus for fresh or frozen) added bacon and pepperjack. Decent bacon. Sweet pickles. Okay veggies. Meat was cooked well, but you can tell they scrub the grill clean- couldn't taste any grill seasoning.

Overall very solid. Maybe not worth going on a long drive for, but more than worth stopping by, and probably the perfect place for gangs of wayward teens or a family to swing by for a great snack during their summer...

I would give this place a billion stars! Service was fabulous. Their food!!! Get OUT OF TOWN! It is so good!!! I consider myself a connoisseur of sorts when it comes to burgers. We travel a lot and we love to patronize small, family owned businesses. We will go out of our way to do so. This absolute GEM is just a few short minutes off I-5 and well worth it. Their burgers are simple and delicious. Very flavorful and juicy. Made as soon as you order. Their ice cream is GIANT and delicious. My husband had a chunky monkey cyclone (like a Blizzard) and I had a blackberry sundae. They layer the sundae sauce with the ice cream so you have these layers of goodness in every bite. Please go visit these guys. They have a really great menu! Remember...

Great food but the customer service is the worst. Ordered 2 burgers and a large fry and cajun tots. The lady helping us didn't hear us say large and had a bad attitude about it even after I appologized for not making it clear. Then when we got our food there was no fries and we got onion rings, when we brought it to her attention she argued with us and raised her voice at us in front of other customers. After waiting another 10 minutes for fries I added up our bill based off their menu we were charged for the onion rings which are more expensive than the fries we left with. So not only was it the absolute worst service I've ever recieved, but I was over charged. Definitely will not...
