Plans for Portland-area In-N-Out restaurant moving forward: What to know

The California-based burger chain filed for building permits on June 17 for the site located at 10565 SW Beaverton Hillsdale Highway in unincorporated Washington County.

“We are looking forward to being able to serve our customers in and around Beaverton with this upcoming location,” said Mike Abbate, vice president of store development for In-N-Out Burger.

Abbate said the company hasn’t yet started the construction process, and does not have an estimate when work could start. Once it does, he said it usually takes about 9 months before the location will be ready and open for business.

The company first filed an application for the location in 2020, but it was denied. A Washington County spokesperson said the issue was the way site was zoned, and not because of traffic concerns.

In-N-Out appealed the decision in 2022. After years of back-and-fourth, the application was approved in 2024.

Earlier this year, In-N-Out also began the permit process for a vacant lot at the intersection of Northeast Airport Way and Holman Street in Portland, which would be the city’s first In-N-Out location.

The company has also filed for permits for the former Shari’s location in Gresham’s Oregon Trail Shopping Center.
