For decades, In-N-Out Burger has been almost synonymous with California, where the chain holds the highest number of locations in the country. That footprint is changing. In-N-Out is bringing eight new restaurants to seven different states as part of a steady eastward expansion that has been building over recent years.
The growth is more than a handful of new drive-thru lanes. In-N-Out is also moving a new corporate headquarters to Tennessee to support the expansion and help its employees better afford housing outside of California. The company believes the move gives workers more room to put down roots, even though the relocation has drawn some public pushback. Below is a closer look at every confirmed location on the way.
California is still growing
Even in its home state, In-N-Out is not slowing down. Two new California locations are on the way. The first is in Commerce at 6233 Telegraph Ave., where the company broke ground in December 2025 with a goal of opening this year. The local community has been excited about the new jobs and energy the restaurant is expected to bring to the area.
The second California location is in Stockton at 10537 Trinity Parkway. It will join a new Dutch Bros and Chick-fil-A at the Trinity Parkway site, adding to a growing cluster of popular dining options. With these two additions, California continues to hold its place as the heart of the In-N-Out empire.
New restaurants across the West
In Colorado, a new location is coming to Timnath at 4911 Cima Vista Drive. The state currently has 14 In-N-Out locations, and while there is no firm opening date, the restaurant is expected to open this year. The site spans 3,860 square feet and sits just off Interstate 25 south of Fort Collins. The company is also reviewing concept plans for a Broomfield location that would add roughly 1,400 square feet of outdoor patio space, pending city council and land use review.
Idaho is getting its fourth In-N-Out in Twin Falls at 1965 N. Blue Lakes Blvd. The City Council approved a special-use permit in 2024, and construction is reportedly nearly complete, though no opening date has been set. Some residents have questioned whether it was the best spot for the restaurant.
Oregon will welcome a location in Hillsboro at 11170 N.E. Evergreen Parkway, which could open by late summer. Locals have raised concerns about traffic safety in the Tanasbourne Town Center, an area that already sees heavy congestion. The city and In-N-Out are working together on traffic flow to address those worries.
Nevada is set to receive what is said to be the largest In-N-Out yet. Located at 3747 S. Las Vegas Blvd. next to the MGM Grand inside the new BLVD shopping and entertainment development, the restaurant is expected to span 8,000 square feet with a 2,500-square-foot dining terrace overlooking the Strip. It will sit one story up on the third floor of a large shopping center.
A gateway stop and a new headquarters
Utah's new location in St. George at 4643 S. Pioneer Road is positioned as a gateway stop for the millions of tourists who visit Zion National Park each year. The company estimates the restaurant could capture more than half of the travelers who reach the park by vehicle, since St. George is often the last stop before the red rocks.
Tennessee rounds out the list with a location in Madison at 1900 Gallatin Pike N. The restaurant is offering a starting wage of $17.50 and is expected to bring large crowds along with out-of-state travelers. It will be the fifth location in the state, with no opening date yet. Tennessee is also where the company is sending its new corporate office to facilitate further growth.
Taken together, these eight restaurants stretch across seven states and underscore how far the chain has moved beyond its California roots. Each location has its own story, from a community in Commerce eager for new jobs to a record-setting flagship on the Las Vegas Strip, but the throughline is clear. In-N-Out is methodically planting flags farther east, and several of these openings are expected within the year.
Bottom line
In-N-Out's plan to build a corporate headquarters in Tennessee signals that the chain is serious about its eastward push, and the East Coast may eventually get the burgers it has long wanted. While the Tennessee move has faced public pushback, the company believes it helps employees better afford housing outside of California. For fans across these seven states, the wait for a fresh, made-to-order Double-Double is almost over. If your town made the list, it may be time to plan your first visit, and if you want to stretch your restaurant budget when you go, a few smart moves at the register can help.
