WASHINGTON STATE. – Regional Update: Progress is well underway for the highly anticipated In-N-Out Burger location in Ridgefield, Washington. New photos from the site show significant construction developments as crews work to bring the popular California-based chain to the region.
Located off I-5 at Pioneer Street, the Ridgefield In-N-Out is set to be the brand’s first location in Washington state, marking a major expansion into the Pacific Northwest. While an official opening date has not yet been announced, excitement continues to grow as construction advances.
While this is still hours south of us, this is the closest location to Bellingham.
