Construction crews have been remodeling space inside the Raleigh Hills Fred Meyer since August, and by October, shoppers there will be able to grab a slice without leaving the store. Abby's Legendary Pizza, the Roseburg-based chain marking its 62nd year in business, is opening its second grocery-store location in Washington County at the Fred Meyer on Southwest Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway.
The Raleigh Hills store will offer dine-in, takeout and delivery service, according to the Beaverton Valley Times, which first reported the opening. The menu will include pizzas, sides and beverages, and the space will carry the same casual, modern decor found at Abby's other parlors. Fred Meyer spokesperson Tiffany Sanders said the retailer is “proud to support a local, family-owned business while giving customers a convenient dining option,” per the same report.
A Second Foothold in Washington County
The Raleigh Hills store follows Abby's first grocery-embedded location, which opened inside the Hillsboro Fred Meyer at 6495 SE Tualatin Valley Highway earlier in 2026, positioned just past the entrance near the checkout stands, according to the Forest Grove News-Times. Abby's executive Mike Hudspeth said “the response to our Hillsboro parlor has exceeded our wildest expectations,” adding that Abby's and Fred Meyer identified Raleigh Hills as another Portland-area community suited to the concept, per the Beaverton Valley Times report.
The Raleigh Hills Fred Meyer itself has deep roots in the area. The store at 7700 SW Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway opened in 1959 as one of founder Fred G. Meyer's early suburban one-stop shopping centers, according to Archives West, giving unincorporated Washington County and Southwest Portland a longtime retail hub decades before pizza became part of the mix.
Jobs and Gaming Rules Inside the New Parlor
The new location is expected to employ a few dozen part-time and full-time workers, with job openings planned for posting at abbyscareers.com in the coming weeks, per the Beaverton Valley Times. Abby's already employs more than 800 people across its 37 regional pizzerias in Oregon and Washington, according to the Forest Grove News-Times.
Like the Hillsboro store, the Raleigh Hills parlor will include a 21-and-older area for Oregon Lottery video terminals. That separation isn't optional: under Oregon Administrative Code 177-045-0030, the Oregon Secretary of State prohibits video lottery terminals in businesses operating primarily as grocery stores unless they sit in a distinct, age-controlled restaurant or lounge area shielded from minors' view. State law also caps how many terminals a single retailer can host — Oregon Revised Statute 461.217 limits authorized video lottery retailers to a maximum of six terminals per establishment, according to Oregon law.
A Chain Rooted in Roseburg, Growing Region-Wide
Abby's traces back to July 1964, when high school friends Albert “Abby” Broughton and Bob “Skinny” Harrell, along with their wives, opened Abby's Pizza Inn on Stephens Street in Roseburg, according to KQEN News Radio. Ownership returned to Roseburg in January 2021, when timberland and real estate firm Lone Rock Resources acquired full equity ownership of the chain from previous owner Mills Sinclair, per the La Grande Observer.
The company leaned into that heritage this past July, completing a major renovation of its original Stephens Street parlor that included reinstalling a restored 1960s neon pole sign and adding murals depicting Douglas County history, KQEN News Radio reported. Abby's now operates locations across the Pacific Northwest, including in Hillsboro, Gresham, Oregon City, Newberg and Woodburn, alongside its family-owned identity that dates back six decades.
Part of what distinguishes the brand on the menu is its “toppings-to-the-edge” approach, including a giant pepperoni pizza built with more than 100 slices of pepperoni on hand-rolled dough. Grand opening details for the Raleigh Hills parlor will be announced closer to its October debut, according to the Beaverton Valley Times.
