Overview

  • Ridgefield’s location opened Aug. 20, drawing overnight campers and waits of two to three hours, with one customer reporting a 12-hour line.
  • Staff opened two hours early to ease queues, and owner Lynsi Snyder attended to cut the ribbon.
  • The restaurant features one drive-thru lane, 73 indoor seats, a covered patio with 28 seats, and about 80 employees starting at $18.75 per hour.
  • Ridgefield police said traffic was going well after coordinated planning, and the state DOT advised delays on I-5 near Exit 14.
  • In-N-Out says a Vancouver, Washington site is planned without a timetable, and it continues to rule out East Coast restaurants even as it builds a Tennessee office.
