Shari’s Cafe & Pies, a struggling Oregon chain of family dining restaurants, has closed several additional locations in the Portland metro area.
The restaurant, which opened in Hermiston in 1978, once boasted nearly 100 restaurants across a half dozen states.
The affected locations range from Beaverton to Oregon City to Vancouver.
Shari‘s and its parent company, Gather Holdings, could not immediately be reached for comment.

In 2023, the company announced that MGG Investment Group had invested in the chain‘s then 42 Oregon restaurants.
At the time, Gather Holdings founder Sam Borgese touted MGG’s “deep knowledge of video lottery gaming operations, which are present in our 42 Oregon restaurants.”
