We have been meaning to try Batter Up since it was a nearby food truck. Now we have been to their location in LaScala Food Hall in downtown Beaverton, home to several micro-restaurants. Most of them are intriguing, but these are some delicious waffles.
There were two things that I am not going to recommend, so I want to get those out of the way.
In my continuing bafflement at how chicken and waffles became a thing, when that is an option I tend to order it. The chicken takes longer than the other items. It is not bad, but it is not really good enough to justify the wait.
In addition, most of the menu items can come with or without hash browns, and the hash browns are fine but nothing special. I wouldn't bother with them, because the waffles are so special.
They are so delicious, and they can be that way with savory toppings...
or sweet toppings...
or with even more sweet toppings. So it is worthwhile to stop and think about priorities.
That being said, a frosty can of soda does not have to be a distraction.
Although the space between the seven restaurants is not completely open,
at least in this section you have access to three or four options, with
attractive polished wood tables and seats.
The end glass door was opened up when we were there, giving kind of a converted industrial space feel, though I believe the space was built at the same time as the apartments above. It did let bugs in, but the bugs never tried to land on us or the food, so it may not matter.
Torn between a desire to both try different Batter Up menu items and try the products of their neighbors, I am not sure what will happen when we go back, but space in general should be great for those who live or work in the area, with inexpensive options, variety, and most of all delicious waffles!
