In-N-Out is opening its 400th restaurant in Meridian, ID on 12-12-2023

The page currently shows that there are 387 stores as of January 2023, but it's now up to 400. Here are several news articles showing this:

This has been added (by various editors, not just me). Dan Bloch (talk) 22:27, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update map

The locations map at Counties with In-N-Out - In-N-Out Burger - Wikipedia has not been updated since 2020. Ada County in Idaho can be added as well as other areas that might have opened since then. Mryellowdog (talk) 03:24, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I added the Idaho location to the map. Checking for any other new counties would be good, but is more work than I'm up for now. Dan Bloch (talk) 19:59, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information about expansion into Washington state

On February 29, 2024, In-N-Out announced plans to open a store in Ridgefield, Washington. The company submitted a development plan for a restaurant, which if approved by the city would make it the first location in the state.

Information courtesy of the Seattle Times: https://www.seattletimes.com/life/food-drink/in-n-out-to-open-its-first-wa-location-in-clark-county/ 2601:600:4200:21C:D11D:433D:A652:B59C (talk) 19:35, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should wait until it's approved and they announce an expected opening date. Restaurant chains submit development applications all the time but not all of them are approved. --Coolcaesar (talk) 22:32, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Texas Distribution Center update

Minor update, but for accuracy's sake: the Texas Distribution Center is located in Lancaster, TX, just south of Dallas; not IN Dallas. (Not to be confused with Lancaster, CA, where In-N-Out has store locations.) In-N-Out did have a temporary corporate office in west Dallas, but that closed and relocated to the Lancaster Distribution Center when it opened in the Summer of 2018. (Source: I've worked at the Lancaster Distribution Center since it opened in 2018.) Drw1926 (talk) 23:55, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can we shorten the page's name to just In-N-Out?

Adding the "Burger" in their name is unnecessary, and every time the company's name is mentioned, it's always "In-N-Out Burger." why can't we just type In-N-Out and call it a day? 2601:18C:601:C720:6935:3189:E27B:4FEF (talk) 22:25, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer "In-N-Out Burger". It's the name used by the company, and it's in the logo. Dan Bloch (talk) 03:28, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
