In-N-Out announces 4 new locations and fans are already mad about what’s missing

Fans of In-N-Out Burger have some good, or not-so-good, news to chew. The beloved chain’s closely-watched location tracker shows six new locations are on the way soon. But these locations won’t see the hamburger chain break ground in new states.

While the Irvine, California-based company has been steadily expanding east in recent years, the locations marked as “opening soon” will only deepen its presence in six states: Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Tennessee. In-N-Out is opening a regional headquarters in Franklin, Tennessee and plans to relocate across the country from California by 2030. 

But it has yet to make it to the Atlantic Coast—and doesn’t seem to have any plans to do so soon..

During a July 2025 appearance on the Relatable podcast, In-N-Out owner Lynsi Snyder teased that, like Tennessee, other locations may be possible in the future thanks to its Texas-based distribution center—but squashed the hopes of fans in places like New York or Florida.

“Florida has begged us, and we’re still saying no,” Snyder said at the time. “The East Coast states, we’re still saying no.” 

Despite the chain’s expansion, now with more than 400 locations, there’s still a novelty factor as it currently operates restaurants in only 10 states. By comparison, Shake Shack has nearly 700 locations in about three dozen states from coast to coast—with additional international locations. 

NEW IN-N-OUT LOCATIONS

Some diners eager to get their hands on a Double-Double burger served “Animal Style” will get their fix soon—though the chain doesn’t specify exact timing on when the new locations will open. 

The new locations are slated for: 

• Hillsboro, Oregon
• Las Vegas, Nevada
• Madison, Tennessee
• St. George, Utah
• Timnath, Colorado
• Vancouver, Washington

The privately-held chain’s most-recent new store opening was in Buckeye, Arizona last week.
