VANCOUVER, Wash. — One of the West Coast's most famous fast-food chains appears to have initiated plans for a second Washington state location.
In-N-Out Burger has submitted a pre-application with the City of Vancouver for a location on Southeast 3rd Way, according to the Clark County website. The preliminary information request appears to have been received by Clark County on April 15.
The site, at 13511 SE 3rd Way, was formerly home to a Rite Aid that included a drive-through pharmacy.
The company previously confirmed that it filed plans to open a location in Ridgefield as part of the Union Ridge Town Center. Ridgefield is about a three-hour drive south of Seattle and is just north of Vancouver along Interstate 5.
Currently, the closest In-N-Out location is in Keizer, Oregon.
In a February statement to KING 5, the city said its permitting and engineering teams are "working closely with In-N-Out’s team to ensure they are not only creating enough queuing spaces to avoid backups onto roads, but also that the design of the building will be unique, high-quality and complementary to Ridgefield."
"We look forward to the possibility of being a part of the Ridgefield community, and having this great location to serve our customers," a statement from the company reads.
In-N-Out opened its 400th location in 2023 and can be found in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Texas and Utah.
