LONGMONT, Colo. — In-N-Out Burger would like to build a new restaurant north of the Denver metro area.
The California-based fast food chain has submitted development plans for a new location in Longmont.
The proposed restaurant would be located southwest of the intersection of Colorado Highway 119 and Harvest Moon Drive, northeast of Costco.
The City of Longmont will hold a public neighborhood meeting on Thursday, March 14, at 6 p.m. to discuss the development.
"We hope to open a restaurant in Longmont, Colorado. We’re currently in the development application process, so it’s still too early to say if, or even when, we will be able to open a restaurant there," said Mike Abbate, Vice President of Store Development at In-N-Out Burger.
There is currently no opening date for the proposed Longmont restaurant. If the restaurant is approved to begin construction, it typically takes In-N-Out Burger eight to nine months to build a restaurant.
"We’re very grateful for the support we’ve received from our customers in Colorado, and we’re excited about the prospect of opening a location in the wonderful community of Longmont," Abbate said.
In-N-Out Burger has proposed several new restaurant locations in Colorado.
The chain has also filed development plans for a new location in Timnath, near Fort Collins and Interstate 25. The proposed 3,860-square-foot burger restaurant would be located at the Ladera subdivision along the I-25 Frontage Road.
Concept plans for the restaurant were filed with the Town of Timnath in May 2023 and a site development plan was submitted in January. The site development plan includes plans for a restaurant, drive thru, 52 proposed parking spaces, and other site improvements.
"Our team continues to make progress on a proposed site in Timnath. At this stage, we are in the development application review phase, so it’s still too early to say when, or even if, we will be able to open a restaurant there," said Abbate.
"We know the Timnath area is a wonderful community, and we are excited about the prospect of opening a new location there to better serve our customers in the near future."
In-N-Out Burger opened its first Colorado locations in Aurora and Colorado Springs in November 2020.
Since then, Colorado restaurants have also opened in Denver, Lone Tree, Lakewood, Thornton, Castle Rock and Loveland. It also has a 97,900-square-foot distribution facility in Colorado Springs.
In-N-Out has a restaurant under construction in Arvada, has proposed a location in Parker and proposed a third restaurant in Colorado Springs.
In-N-Out Burger previously launched a Cookout Truck in Colorado that will bring burgers and side items to your private event as a catering option.
In addition to serving parts of Denver and Colorado Springs, In-N-Out has launched the Cookout Truck in parts of Los Angeles including parts of Ventura, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties in California as well as Dallas, Texas.
In-N-Out said the trucks are fully self-contained units, equipped with generators and operated and staffed completely by In-N-Out Burger workers. The trucks serve the Double-Double, cheeseburger, hamburger, grilled cheese, chips and fountain drinks. The burger chain notes that french fries and shakes cannot be prepared on the trucks.
In-N-Out Burger is known for its double-double burger and animal-style fries. In-N-Out Burger currently has more than 330 fast-food locations throughout several western states including California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Texas and Oregon.
In-N-Out was founded by Harry and Esther Snyder and is still owned and operated by the Snyder family and none of its locations are franchised.
