In-N-Out set to continue expansion with 7 new locations
The popular fast-food chain In-N-Out has announced that they plan to open seven new stores in the near future.
unbranded – Newsworthy
In-N-Out has more than 400 locations, mostly on the West Coast – but, so far, none in Nebraska.

That hasn’t stopped residents from asking, though. A survey by MarketBeat, a financial media company, shows the burger chain is the brand Nebraska residents would most like to see open in their state. The results of the survey are based on responses from more than 3,000 people across the country.
The restaurant, founded in 1948 in California, was a popular choice across the country. In addition to Nebraska, residents of 14 other states also chose it as their most wanted chain – Alabama, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
In recent years, In-N-Out has continued to expand outside of California, opening locations in Colorado, Idaho and Texas, USA TODAY reported. It also has announced plans to open restaurants in New Mexico and Tennessee. In-N-Out opened a restaurant in its ninth state on Aug. 20, 2025, with a restaurant in Ridgefield, Washington.
