Eugene • 344-5221 Local restauranteur Pat O'Con nell didn’t set out solely to take on “the Big Three” hamburger restaurants. The leader. McDonald's, has over 7 million stores and is currently opening 500 more each week! Pat has only one hamburger store, at 13th & High in Eugene, and his aim is quality — not quantity. Since adding in door seating to their present loca tion last winter. Great Oregon Burger has enjoyed continual monthly increases in sales. And there isn’t a day that goes by when somebody doesn’t comment, "...boy, that was good. ... the best burger ... I’ve heard you have the best ..." With that kind of un solicited endorsement, it's easy to understand why Arlene and Pat's four other employees feel so good about their work. They make everybody happy. Pat didn’t go to “hamburger college." in fact he had no restaurant background at all Rais ed in Oakridge and Klamath Falls, he joined the Marines in the early 60's, settled in San Diego (work ing for soda pop giant Coca Cola), but longed to move back to Oregon. So in 1975 he returned to Eugene and joined the txxmiing real estate business. Five years later he purchased the kitchen trailer that was to become the home of The Great Oregon Burger Company. He opened for business on the site where it stood, next to the Sunny Station near LCC. Nine months later brother/partner Michael discovered and helped ac quire their present location. Pat has added on twice since then, just recently to restore the outside seating that was sacrificed tor the indoor seating. No matter where you like to eat them. Great Oregon Burgers are great — made from 100% beef with all the trimmings and served with individually prepared orders of french tries or onion rings. Each order is in dividually prepared and quickly served. You can avoid any wait by phoning your order in; 344-5221. They're open 7 days a week. 10 am till midnight Although Pat is looking to open more Great Oregon Burger loca tions in the future, he assures me that: “Quality will always remain the focus — we'll never become a hamburger factory.” Paae 9
