When people visit California, some go for the beaches, some go for the theme parks — and some go straight from LAX to In-N-Out before they’ve even unpacked. The cult burger chain is practically a rite of passage for the West Coast, known for its palm-tree cups, neon signs, and perfectly simple menu that fans will debate to the death.
And now, the golden arrow is pointing east.
On Tuesday, October 7, USA Today reported that In-N-Out updated the “Locations” section on its website, revealing five new restaurants marked as “Opening Soon.” The fresh additions stretch from California to Tennessee and signal the burger icon’s most ambitious expansion yet.

Sylmar, California: 13864 Foothill Blvd.Longmont, Colorado: 255 Ken Pratt Blvd.Antioch, Tennessee: 4130 William Turner Pkwy.Lebanon, Tennessee: 915 South Hartmann DriveMurfreesboro, Tennessee: 2508 Medical Center Pkwy.The Tennessee trio is particularly historic, marking In-N-Out’s first-ever restaurants east of Texas. It’s a big move, but not exactly a surprise. In January 2023, the company announced plans to build an Eastern territory office in Franklin, Tennessee and open local restaurants by 2026.

“We are very excited to provide Tennesseans with our quality burgers, fries and shakes,” said Lynsi Snyder, In-N-Out’s owner, president, and sole granddaughter of founders Harry and Esther Snyder, in a press release at the time. “In every decision I make, I always consider what my family would want. I have no doubt that my grandparents, dad and uncle would be proud of this decision to grow our Associate family and serve even more amazing Customers beginning in Nashville and the surrounding areas.”
For decades, In-N-Out has grown slowly and deliberately, expanding only where it can keep its promise of serving food that’s fresh, never frozen. “Our ingredients are delivered fresh to our stores,” the company’s site says. “We don’t even own a microwave or freezer... We make every burger one at a time, cooked fresh to order.” That commitment to freshness means every new region requires its own supply network. Until now, that’s kept In-N-Out close to its Southern California roots.

Still, the brand’s influence has grown far beyond state lines. Secret-menu staples like Animal Style and the towering 3x3 have earned global recognition, while its timeless simplicity has turned a humble drive-thru into something close to sacred. Even as the fast-food landscape evolved, In-N-Out stayed the same — and the results speak for themselves.

Earlier this year, Yelp named In-N-Out the #1 Burger Chain in the U.S., topping its national “Top 25 Burger Chains” list. The ranking cited more than 119,000 reviews across 400 locations, with customers praising the brand’s “not-so-secret menu” and customizable options like Protein Style and the 3x3.

By August, the chain made headlines again with the opening of its first Washington location in Ridgefield, drawing campers and long lines at the debut. Even behind the counter, In-N-Out stands apart. According to Entrepreneur, seasoned store managers can earn up to $180,000 a year — a rare figure in fast food and one reason the chain consistently lands among the nation’s best places to work.
