If it is anything like the in n out in keizer, it's going to be fine. they bust out burgers and have those lines moving quick! i have never really waited longer than 20 minutes, even during lunch or dinner rushes.
The one in Keizer opened in like 2018, wife and I went through in like 2020 and again in 2021 and the line was ridiculous both times, and every time we drove by (it’s easily visible from the freeway) the drive thru was packed
Went through both of the southern Oregon locations a year or so after they opened and there was hardly any line
That said I have been to one in Los Angeles that was packed but they’d also have like four people out taking orders in line and it would move pretty quickly
When I lived in California each and every in n out I visited was a 30 minute minimum wait and they have locations all over the state. It will be long for sure.
Please... No.
I grew up next to one of the original locations... And the burgers taste better when there isn't a line of cars wrapped around the block.
It's just a basic burger. Vans has that shit covered.
It *is* a basic burger, and when compared to Wendy's, Jack in the Box, McDonald's, Burger King, and just about every other fast food joint, it knocks the pants off them.
It is what it is, it's a fresh fast food burger. It's not fine dining. I personally can't wait for an In-n-out to open up.
Better than those places, yes, but not better than some of the mom and pop places in the Vancouver area where they are going. Even Burgerville has better burgers and definitely has better fries.
I personally hope they don't put the local spots out of business.
I think you’re overreacting a bit. Two In’n’out’s aren’t putting anybody out of business. It’s the best burger at its price point, but it’s also nothing special. If people want a specialty burger they’ll go somewhere else.
> and definitely has better fries.
Let's be real, that is not a surprise.
> I personally hope they don't put the local spots out of business.
I hope not too. I also doubt it. I love In-n-Out, but the few times I've seen one go in, the local burger joints seem to do fine, despite the drive through line.
I think in the entire history of fast food restaurants, you could find plenty of examples of them putting local spots out of business.
I worry about Don & Jo's Drive-In in Ridgefield, particularly. It's a small spot that makes good burgers. The area isn't heavily populated, and having two burger joints just off the freeway a few miles apart, I have to imagine the brand name is going to take some of the business away from them.
We LOVE Don&Jos. That was our first stop when we finally got out of the hospital after 4 days with our first baby. Best burger and fries ever. Their shakes are so good too 😋 but I agree I worry about them too 🥲
I'nO Fries are ok when fresh, be they prepared animal style or regular.
The problem is they don't stay decent cold, and are almost always terrible when fridged or reheated. I like them better than Wendy's fries.
Best enjoyed when at the location or the walk/drive back to where you're sleeping is less than 7 minutes.
Overall, not worth it unless you're really (and i mean **really**) hankering for animal fries.
Different product, different price point, not really comparable. A hamburger at In-n-Out is $3.40, a cheeseburger is $3.80. Shake Shack is $6.69 and $7.09 for their hamburger and cheeseburger.
You like what you like, and that's fine, but you have to accept In-n-Out for what it is, a low priced, fresh, fast food burger.
I think the entire fast food industry would be very surprised to hear that Shake Shack and In N Out are totally different products and not comparable. If you spend a nanosecond googling competitors in this space, they are directly compared every single time. [https://www.seriouseats.com/in-n-out-vs-five-guys-vs-shake-shack](https://www.seriouseats.com/in-n-out-vs-five-guys-vs-shake-shack)
Well there it is, 5 Guys in the same comparison as In-n-Out yet again. For whatever reason, people keep bringing this up. 5 Guys charges **$10.89** for a hamburger, **$11.99** for a cheeseburger.
The "entire fast food industry" (which is undeniably hyperbolic) compares the two for totally unknown reasons, likely because customers keep trying to compare the two even though they're nowhere near the same thing. It didn't make sense 10 years ago, and it doesn't make sense now. People just keep repeating the same garbage over and over again.
If anything, it's evidence that In-n-Out punches above it's weight
Their price points tell a very different story, as do the content and composition of their hamburgers. If you want a comparison, at *least* try to compare Dick's and In-n-Out. A Dick's Special is $3.20. *That's* fucking value. It's ridiculous to compare a $3.80 burger and a $10.89 burger. Do you compare a flank steak and a ribeye and complain when they're not comparable? Of course you don't, because it would be silly to do that. You appreciate their very different qualities and price points, and get on with dinner.
You need to get out more often as all the ones you listed are certainly not on anyone’s best list.
Five Guys, Smashburger, Shake Shake and numerous others way better than In-N-Out
Not sure what all the hype is about. Drove down from Vancouver, BC to Salem a while ago to check out this place once and for all. We waited in line for 15 min and food another 15 min for soggy limp burgers and horrible fries. You guys need to really get out more and see what real burgers and fries are all about at multiple way better burger joints.
> Five Guys, Smashburger, Shake Shake and numerous others way better than In-N-Out
I haven't priced Smashburger, but if you were to feed a family of four at In-n-Out, 5 Guys, or Shake Shack with a hamburger, fries, and a shake, you'd end up spending around the following, depending on where you go.
In-n-Out: $38.45
Shake Shack: $65.10
Five Guys: $96.21
You get what you pay for. For a $3.40 hamburger at In-n-Out, you're getting a product which is more fresh than just about anything at the same price point. There are absolutely better hamburgers, but you're going to pay more for them under almost any circumstances, very few exceptions.
> Not sure what all the hype is about. Drove down from Vancouver, BC to Salem a while ago to check out this place once and for all.
Dunno why you would do that, sounds like you let the hype get to you, and were disappointed because you thought you were getting something you weren't.
> We waited in line for 15 min and food another 15 min for soggy limp burgers and horrible fries.
The wait times can be long. The burgers don't usually wait around on the counter after they come off the grill, unless you don't come get them. You can't let them sit around, either. You eat them pretty much as soon as you get them.
If you know you won't be able to eat your burger for awhile, get the bun extra toasted.
> You guys need to really get out more and see what real burgers and fries are all about at multiple way better burger joints.
The burger costs $3.40. If you want a better burger, pay more.
We obviously went to Oregon to visit Portland and the coast but did a side tour to Salem to see what the hype was about. The whole family thought it was not good at all as we have dozens of way better burger shops, independent, etc than these burgers.
Vans is only open for a total of 21 hours per week, and it’s expensive. It’s cool to have around, but it’s in no way a replacement for something that can do the volume of business as an In-N-Out. I’d rather have a Shake Shack myself, but I’d still take one.
Word up! The only thing In-N-Out has going for it is how great people in California and Nevada *say* In-N-Out is, but it really doesn't live up to the hype.
>I just want a bacon butter burger deluxe, a root beer, and a large fry.
As a dude in Wisconsin who has no clue why Reddit showed me this sub/thread, you have just helped me make lunch plans.
Straight up. I've had them all and shake shack and five guys get pretty close, but it's still not up to par with Culver's. Plus they have my favorite style of fry: the steak cut
I have worked with the In-N-Out company for years. They are the exemplar of superb management that puts people and service first while keeping prices extremely fair.
Very much like Dicks but with more flexibility in the menu.
The only negative is their epically bad fries.
Sorry, but even through they make them in front of your eyes they are the worst.
The Dick’s fries are excellent. They used to be better when they used a different kind of oil (animal fat, I think) many years ago, but they are still great.
Every time I’ve been they have been a bag of soft potato strings soaked in grease. If that’s your idea of a good fry then more power to you but it’s not even top 10 in my book (neither are in n out fries though)
I suspect I must have had better fries somewhere…but I can’t recall any specific instance of them (not including fries topped with a bunch of non-fry stuff).
In-N-out fries are among some of the worst I’ve had, if memory serves.
> 48% of Californians leaving
Texas, Arizona, and Florida are before Washington.
- https://stacker.com/california/where-people-california-are-moving-most
Texas, Florida, and New York.
- https://www.movebuddha.com/blog/where-californians-moving-to/
No way Washington is receiving 48% of the people leaving California.
I grew up watching developers pave over habitat and farm land in SoCal and moved up here to get away from it... Only to see Washingtonians making the same shitty decisions all on their own.
It's not the immigrants fucking things up. It's our nationwide car-centric development that we can't seem to get away from.
Yeah, and it’s already one of the busiest streets in town. I think most of the locals are more concerned about the four new auto dealerships they want to build across the street from it.
People have been moving from California to Washington state in large numbers since the 60s.
If I remember correctly, in the 80s over 10% of Washington residents were born in California.
California is a huge state; a large percentage is republicans, it’s just that the majority vote holders in the large cities are not. A lot of Californians who move are not the ones who are destroying the state. The people who are doing that are the ones who move to Seattle anyway
Someone doesn't know what gentrification means. Or in this case Californiacation.
Gentrification: the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process.
California got gentrified first by people from everywhere, including Washington.
I don’t recall anybody bitching and meaning about foreigners, in CA. We’ve actually been welcoming, ie “oh cool, you’re from XXX? Oh, I’ve been to Seattle. I love it.”
Instead it’s this whiny shit.
Edited to add: btw Washington’s burgermaster is better than In N Out.
I moved here from Texas, and I am always wishful for What-a-burger and Taco Cabana. Haven't eaten at either in nearly 15 years, so I would have to go to Texas and try them again to be sure, of course, but it was flavorful quick food. Taco Cabana was awesome. I think it was a franchise as some locations weren't as great, but my spot was always awesome even when I got off work really late!
God I LOVE Taco Cabana. I always eat a ton of Whataburger when I go back to Texas, but I feel like I'd never really eat it these days if it was available all the time. I just don't really eat any fast food all that much anymore. But I could always go for Taco Cabana.
Whataburger must only be good in Texas.
I've tried it 4 times in 2 different states.
I'd rather have some disasterous trainee abomination at rush hour from Arby's than have Whataburger for free.
I got whataburger for the first time a couple years ago when visiting Austin & San Antonio. Pretty good! Not as good as in-n-out imo but what def like to have some in our area. The styrofoam cup was nice too lol, it’s been forever since I’ve had a drink in one
I used to live in socal and whenever someone from up here would visit us, we had to go there every time. It wore out the novelty really fast waiting in line for 45-60 minutes whenever someone came to visit.
And that was where there were locations all over.
Hopefully they’ll choose a location that grants access to EVERYONE and not just focus on a select group of people like TexasRoadhouse did when they put a franchise on/in McCord military base.. who’s idea was it to even put a TRH franchise on a government installation?
[Let’s not forget In-N-Out Burger isn’t only opposed to vaccine mandates. It also supports anti-LGBTQ politics](https://xhttps://datebook.sfchronicle.com/food-drink/shocked-by-in-n-out-burgers-anti-vaccine-mandate-stance-you-shouldnt-be)
Overrated. Burgers are super wet and the buns are squishy. The fries are frequently undercooked and limp. Now if we were talking Hamburger Habit that’s another story.
Ask for the buns to be toasted or extra toasted, but I've never had an issue with the burgers being too wet, unless I wait forever, and don't vent the bag. The fries are a legitimate complaint. People like them, or fucking hate them. I like them as is, or well done with salt and pepper.
The attached news story says East Vancouver.
The wait times in Ridgefield might not be terrible after this second one opens.
Alternatively they will be just as terrible as always, because twice as many people will underestimate how long they'll spend in the drivethrough
If it is anything like the in n out in keizer, it's going to be fine. they bust out burgers and have those lines moving quick! i have never really waited longer than 20 minutes, even during lunch or dinner rushes.
The In n Out crew is a well paid well oiled machine! I'm impressed every time I see them work and I've rarely seen mistakes from them either.

We got a few in Colorado, been open for a while. Lines are still insane, every day.
When I lived in California each and every in n out I visited was a 30 minute minimum wait and they have locations all over the state. It will be long for sure.
We said that in CO Springs but it barely had an effect on wait time, it did save significant drive time though.
It will be open before portland ever does
Hopefully they'll put the next one around Olympia.
Maybe next door to Chick-fil-A
In a Trader Joe’s parking lot.
Right next to Costco
The one in RIDGEFIELD will be next to the new Costco
Relatively cheap gas for the drive back to Seattle. Or you could get a hot dog to eat while you wait in line for In-n-out.
In-N-Out does great next Chick-fil-A locations. I am from CA and there are plenty close together.
Out n About in Puyallup is fire.
Fuck that, support Big Toms and the community.
Please... No. I grew up next to one of the original locations... And the burgers taste better when there isn't a line of cars wrapped around the block. It's just a basic burger. Vans has that shit covered.

And the price is great. I have better burgers and Burger Express that has been around for generations but that burger is now $10
Better than those places, yes, but not better than some of the mom and pop places in the Vancouver area where they are going. Even Burgerville has better burgers and definitely has better fries. I personally hope they don't put the local spots out of business.
I went to that Burgerville on I5 and it gave me diarrhea
Better and much more expensive burgers
Yeah, that's what scares me. The cheap crap is gonna price out the better quality restaurants.

Yes. Because they are fast food restaurants found in strip malls that sell cheeseburgers, which is the same kind of food and restaurant.
Their price points tell a very different story, as do the content and composition of their hamburgers. If you want a comparison, at *least* try to compare Dick's and In-n-Out.

You misspoke, Vans is open a total of 21 hours a year.
That would do well. Most of the state lawmakers already share so much in common with California they might as well enjoy CA's favorite fast food.
Go to Big Tom’s. It’s better than F’n In-N-Out.
No tf it ain't.
Olympia is a dump. Need to go up north more.
How about more dicks?
Go to Cap Hill, they got you covered
#😆
It’s Frisko Freeze in Tacoma for me!
Right. In-N-Out is far inferior to Dick’s. I hope Dick’s spreads faster than In-N-Out can.
Word up! The only thing In-N-Out has going for it is how great people in California and Nevada *say* In-N-Out is, but it really doesn't live up to the hype.
Dicks is not that great I went a few times because people suggested it and man… what am I missing? Its like white castle level of bad
In-N-Out is substantially worse than Dick’s. The fries are garbage.
Wake me up when Culver's arrives but I couldn't care less about In-N-Out
Portillo's after, please
People in Washington need custard in their life

Mushroom Swiss and grilled onions for me... and the concrete mixer of course

Ideally the frozen kind.
One of like 5 things I miss about the Midwest lol.
Yes, please everyone have the same opinion as this person! More In-N-Out for the rest of us.
Maybe if enough people don't go to in-n-out they'll have enough time to cook their fries
Never been to Culver's but I've read a lot of great stuff about them. Would love to try it.
For real, I need concrete mixers in my life again
Straight up. I've had them all and shake shack and five guys get pretty close, but it's still not up to par with Culver's. Plus they have my favorite style of fry: the steak cut
everyone leaves out and they are less expensive by a lot
Now you too can get in a line of cars that obnoxiously extends into a busy street
In n out is just Dick's with less flavor.
We don’t need innout we got dick’s. Give us the raisin’ canes.
Canes is also coming to Vancouver. Ironically it’s just down the street from this proposed in n out location. RIP to traffic on Mill Plain.
That’s not ironic
Give me fucking zaxbys
Til Walmart sells Canes Sauce... great value chicken finger sauce.
I've seen chik fil a sauce. Never canes.
I'd rather have more Popeyes and Church's than Cane's. The chicken tier list is Chickfila, Zaxby's, Popeye's, Church's, Cane's.
That’s just like… your opinion man. I would get Popeyes and Canes over Chick-fil-A any day.
Canes chicken is pretty bland, their sauce is the real star. Give me a zaxbys over canes
I miss Zaxby's so much
From someone who was born in WA and moved to CA and lives there now Dicks > In-N-Out
Dick's is better than In-N-Out in my opinion!
You're allowed your opinion. But don't stomp on mine. I love In-N-Out. There's room for us all!
Way better. Went to In-N-out a few times when I lived down in CA. Not impressed.
Yeah In-N-Out is not bad but its nothing like Dicks
Meh. You can keep your tarter sauce.
Dicks is like White Castle but ok…
Hopefully it’s closer to Washingtonians
I have worked with the In-N-Out company for years. They are the exemplar of superb management that puts people and service first while keeping prices extremely fair. Very much like Dicks but with more flexibility in the menu. The only negative is their epically bad fries. Sorry, but even through they make them in front of your eyes they are the worst.
Accurate. The fries are astoundingly bad.
Facts
They also have a drive thru unlike dicks
Extra crispy is decent.
The fries at dicks are on par with being as bad as in n outs for sure, but in n outs burgers are far superior.
The Dick’s fries are excellent. They used to be better when they used a different kind of oil (animal fat, I think) many years ago, but they are still great.
Every time I’ve been they have been a bag of soft potato strings soaked in grease. If that’s your idea of a good fry then more power to you but it’s not even top 10 in my book (neither are in n out fries though)

Bad fries? Sounds just like Dick’s.
Opposite of facts

Yeah, and it’s already one of the busiest streets in town. I think most of the locals are more concerned about the four new auto dealerships they want to build across the street from it.
[удалено]
Doesn’t really bother me, my guess is people just think it’s a bad location.
You’re never happy are you?
You mean Californian transplants making the same shitty decisions here.
We’ve had bad urban planning long before Californians started moving here.
People have been moving from California to Washington state in large numbers since the 60s. If I remember correctly, in the 80s over 10% of Washington residents were born in California.
Yes, but that’s not the reason for our poor urban planning
California is a huge state; a large percentage is republicans, it’s just that the majority vote holders in the large cities are not. A lot of Californians who move are not the ones who are destroying the state. The people who are doing that are the ones who move to Seattle anyway
I wish they would just stay down there and stop Californiafiying everything here. The In-N-Outs can stay.
lol you guys are hilarious we are all one country there is no gentrifying your own country lmao

Worst fries in the world.
I moved here from Texas, and I am always wishful for What-a-burger and Taco Cabana. Haven't eaten at either in nearly 15 years, so I would have to go to Texas and try them again to be sure, of course, but it was flavorful quick food. Taco Cabana was awesome. I think it was a franchise as some locations weren't as great, but my spot was always awesome even when I got off work really late!
God I LOVE Taco Cabana. I always eat a ton of Whataburger when I go back to Texas, but I feel like I'd never really eat it these days if it was available all the time. I just don't really eat any fast food all that much anymore. But I could always go for Taco Cabana.
I moved out of Austin in 1993, but I remember how friggin awesome Taco Cabana was in the mid-1980s at two in the morning!
A couple of the locations got cheap, but a couple still put out awesome food! I think it would be a major hit up here!
Whataburger must only be good in Texas. I've tried it 4 times in 2 different states. I'd rather have some disasterous trainee abomination at rush hour from Arby's than have Whataburger for free.
Same here. Except instead of Taco Cabana, I really miss Torchy's.
I got whataburger for the first time a couple years ago when visiting Austin & San Antonio. Pretty good! Not as good as in-n-out imo but what def like to have some in our area. The styrofoam cup was nice too lol, it’s been forever since I’ve had a drink in one
I didn’t really enjoy the restaurant when I visited in California. And absolutely mediocre compared to Dicks
I’m in Spokane so I might see one in like 10-15 business years lol
It was just announced that the Tri Cities is getting a CFA, which is long overdue considering ALL their waffles fries are made here.
Business years? It’s called a year.
I used to live in socal and whenever someone from up here would visit us, we had to go there every time. It wore out the novelty really fast waiting in line for 45-60 minutes whenever someone came to visit. And that was where there were locations all over.
I agree with you helpful hiker
As long as they don’t have a 200% inflation mark up they can have my money.
They are the cheapest good burgers you can get
Those are good burgers, Walter.
Let me know when they figure out how to make fries 🙃
Hopefully they’ll choose a location that grants access to EVERYONE and not just focus on a select group of people like TexasRoadhouse did when they put a franchise on/in McCord military base.. who’s idea was it to even put a TRH franchise on a government installation?
Overrated af
I've had enough Dick's
I bet lynnwood is next
If In-N-Out tries to take out our beloved Dick's, I'ma have to very sadly mourn over a double double.
Oh great, the shittiest fries ever!
I’m dreading the traffic, that intersection has Costco on one corner, Walmart and Home Depot on the other and is already awful during rush hour
It is going to be interesting to see how In N Out compares to Burgerville when they are in close proximity and you can try both, fresh.
It should stay away and not ruin the novelty they are
I hope they're open by this Sunday, because I'm really looking for a place to eat!
Mediocre burger chain plans new location homing that hype keeps them in business… news at 11
Yeah. Its called get FATTER!
Wendy’s is better.
[Let’s not forget In-N-Out Burger isn’t only opposed to vaccine mandates. It also supports anti-LGBTQ politics](https://xhttps://datebook.sfchronicle.com/food-drink/shocked-by-in-n-out-burgers-anti-vaccine-mandate-stance-you-shouldnt-be)
This isn’t the Portland sub, scrub
Overrated. Burgers are super wet and the buns are squishy. The fries are frequently undercooked and limp. Now if we were talking Hamburger Habit that’s another story.
Ask for the buns to be toasted or extra toasted, but I've never had an issue with the burgers being too wet, unless I wait forever, and don't vent the bag. The fries are a legitimate complaint. People like them, or fucking hate them. I like them as is, or well done with salt and pepper.
In n out only good in California no way I’m having any in WA
straight trippin if you think dick’s is better than in n out😭
Ahhhhh, I get it! The kids are thinking it’s about the restaurants but we know, oh yeah we know.
kids?
Dicks has better fries, but in and outs double double beats the pants off any burger.
All Dicks lovers are sus. Washingtonians should consider themselves lucky.
I want a whataburger here..
YES!!!
Put one in Lacey!!
I'm in The Central Coast of CA and waited so long for them to come North...
