According to KTLA, the chain is also opening new restaurants in Ridgefield, WA, and Surprise, AZ. The furthest east that the chain has opened restaurants is Texas, KTLA reported. In 2023, the chain announced on Instagram that it will eventually have restaurants in New Mexico. "We're excited to share that we will be fully in the Four Corners, serving our Customers in New Mexico, by 2027! It's an exciting day for our Company, the In-N-Out Family and our Customers. Stay tuned for more details. We're looking forward to serving quality burgers, fries, and shakes in Albuquerque, NM!" the post said.
