I saw this place had a really good rating at the time so I picked this place and went to check it out. The burgers we ordered were so fresh and delicious.

Potatos salad and clam chowder was delicious too.

I would think they could make some dough putting in gas pumps as the locals must not enjoy driving 30 miles west on SR14 to fill up. I've never paid much attention but there could be a card-lock place across the street for businesses that have a membership. Those tractors certainly gulp down a lot of diesel in a week's time. There used to be a ferry here that went over to Arlington, OR but it's long gone now. It was used frequently by the locals to fetch groceries across the river. In recent years the population of Roosevelt has increased dramatically after the town decided that they would build a landfill and welcome the trash from the Seattle area. Trains loaded with refuse keep truck drivers employed and busy hauling the containers up the hill to be emptied. Prior to the landfill, Roosevelt was little more than a whistle stop with a dive bar and a couple of other now derelict businesses. Food here is pretty decent these days as they are feeding local truckers who want and expect a hardy meal at a reasonable price. You'll find that here. Staff is very friendly. There's a little park and boat launch down the road (south) with picnic tables and a view of the river.

It's kind of a big metal two-story industrial looking shack. You might even wonder if you're in the right spot, though there's a sign on the building that says "Rivers Edge Restaurant." The restaurant is upstairs; I recommend rounding the corner to park up at the lot above rather than below. There's a side entrance you'll use, go past the restrooms, round another corner to go past the kitchen, and then you'll finally find the counter. You can order to-go or be seated in the dining area (which is also where there are a few slot machines and a billiards table). The guy running the place is friendly and attentive; he refilled our drinks while we were there. There's a decent number of options on the menu, with some great affordable options. Overall a great experience and a good way to get some food in us to resume our road trip.

Dah Hubz and I were in town checking out some property we're wanting to buy. Wanting to see what the area was like, we thought stopping at the local "gathering spot/watering hole" would be the way to gauge what it might be like if we lived here full time. What did we find? Only some of the most wonderfully friendly people around serving up some of the best food we've ever tasted! First off, we went on a Saturday afternoon, in mid-February. Not exactly "peak tourist season". This place really is pretty much the only place open in the whole town. However, it seemed to be a favorite with the locals (even though it *is* a tourist spot to see, in its own right, for the history value). Decor was, I thought, 'comforting'. An older weathered wood building, with wooden sidewalks, you'd think it'd be over the top Western kitschy type. But it's not. It has toned down style, a few bluebird decorations here and there, but nothing "in-your-face, over-the-top" you might expect. The moment I stepped in the door, I felt...at ease, comfortable, welcomed. Almost like stepping into your own home kind of feeling. Town citizens saying 'hi' as though I was already a regular friend they saw every day, even though we must have been quite a sight, rolling in with our Subura coated with mud and dirt, not mention ourselves! Regulars hanging around, playing a dice game of 10,000. I loved it! Our waitress was Kim, a wonderful lady. She gave us plenty of time to decide on our meal, never hovering. The place was clean clean clean! Not dirty or dusty, like one might expect a place to be, out this far. Even the bathrooms were spotless (both women's AND men's! Complete with little heaters to keep them warm). All this cleanliness, even though they are in the middle of expanding and renovating the restaurant! Dah Hubz got a beer (he said it was great!) and I got iced tea (they have brewed! Not the bottled! Yay!). We got the small green salad and the 2x2 burger (2 patties, double cheese) to share. They didn't even blink when we said we were sharing the meal. The salad was nice and crisp, nothing wilted or yucky! The burger was, well, divine! Seriously! I don't think I have ever had a better restaurant burger! Nothing fancy, just good cooking! There is nothing "fancy-pants" on the menu, from what I could see....this is just "standard fare" for a regular diner. But that regular fare is frickin' awesome! Even the fries, which almost every place gets wrong for Mah Hubz - this place got them PERFECT!! And Dah Hubz, he is seriously finicky about his fries being done exactly right (burnt, super crispy, just short of charcoal). Seriously! Even me, with my ULTRA sensitive stomach that ALWAYS has problems with ANY food....I did not have a single problem all the way home - that's a 3+ hour trip, for those of you who don't know!!! OK...that's like MIRACLE in my book! So, the whole of it...would we go here again? In a heartbeat! Heck, it'd even be worth the 6+ hour round trip from Vancouver...just to go here. Yeah, THAT good. Oh, and cost? Very reasonable. Pricing actually cheaper than our local Denny's or Shari's (burgers, even the big one here, will run about $7-$9). Psst...BTW - They have free WiFi!!!!

And do you think that there was any information regarding this on the front window? NOPE! Posted hours are 10-8 Monday through Saturday. Do you suppose that because the bickleton city website says that the blue bird inn is open Monday through Saturday 10-8, the bluebird inn website and the only signage on the front of the place says the same, with zero mention of only being open seasonally, that we may not be the only prospective customers that made the long drive into the middle of nowhere only to be disappointed? IT IS NOT OPEN YEAR ROUND.
