I made it my mission to find and dine at the closest In N Out to LAX, ONT, PSP, SAN, FAT, and LAS either right before flying out or right after arriving. The food is
better, fresher, and more dependable than what you get on board and the service is friendlier. Plus it's a great way to say hello or goodbye to California (or Vegas)
before or after a flight to or from the East Coast

Since then, I've done the drive-thru at this location once (maybe 15 minute wait) and carry-out at Park Meadows (10 minute wait tops). Tasty as always.

I went to the new one in Parker last Monday. The parking lot was full and the drive through was maybe 20 cars deep. They had people taking orders at the cars. We chose to eat in our vehicle. They gave us place mats for our laps to sit our meals on. All fresh ingredients served hot as ordered. Better, fresh food and cheaper than the alternatives. It was 70+ degrees outside, but no one was eating outside.

I think I found a winning combination...
I go to In-N-Out and order our burgers. While I'm waiting, I order fries from the McDonald's app (fortunately, there is one between home and In-N-Out). After I get the burgers, I do a 2-minute detour to pick up the fries. Best of both worlds.

I havent been to an In N Out in many months but we decided to stop by the flagship location on Francisquito driving home from a class
I just dont understand why their fries get so cold so fast. I could see them come out of the fryer, dumped in the tray, put in the box - even my animal fries received extra heating to melt the cheese - but within a couple minutes of getting them to the table, both orders of fries were cold
I can only theorize its the lack of chemical coatings so there is a plus/minus component to the problem
