In-N-Out Burger has officially expanded to the entire West Coast as the Southern California-based fast-food giant recently opened its first location in Washington state.
In-N-Out’s restaurant in Ridgefield, a city just north of Vancouver, Washington, opened on Aug. 20, the company announced, with one drive-thru lane, indoor seating for 73 customers and outdoor seating for another 28.
The starting wage for employees, or “associates” as they’re known, is $18.75 per hour. The store is managed by Clint Ford, a 26-year veteran of In-N-Out, the company said.
“As with all locations, fresh ingredients will be supplied to the store from In-N-Out,” In-N-Out said in a statement. “Hamburger patties are made from 100% American beef, and whole chucks are boned and ground by In-N-Out’s own butchers.”
In-N-Out Burger was founded by Harry and Esther Snyder as a burger stand in Baldwin Park, a suburb of Los Angeles, in 1948. It’s now run by their granddaughter, Lynsi, and has 424 locations in eight states: California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Colorado and Idaho.
The company’s first restaurants in Tennessee are slated to open next year, marking its furthest expansion to the east to-date.
