In & Out Burger

[Little c Travel]

I will be traveling to Disneyland Resort for the Star Wars 1/2 Marathon and was wondering how hard it will be to go to an In & Out Burger. We are not renting a car just taking transportation down to our hotel. We will be a Disneyland for 4 days and I don't want to waste a lot of time going to an In & Out Burger however I would love to try one.

They don't happen to have an LAX location do they?

There's a a location on Sepulveda just north of LAX, but due to corner that it's on it would require a car. The closest In n Out is on Brookhurst and Orange Ave. I'm not sure if ART goes there, but it looks like if you take OCTA you'd have to transfer at Ball Rd or walk to Ball. You should ask at your hotel, they would know if there's a direct bus that goes to another In N Out, like the one in Fullerton.

Google In n Out secret menu.
I recommend
Double Double Animal Style
Well Done fries
and a shake of some sort.

Neapolitan shake.

I second well done fries and will add whole grilled onions as a recommendation.

Personally I don't think In in Out is worth all that effort.

I know most will disagree with me.

I will be the first to COMPLETELY agree with you.

I second that! I was so disappointed. We drove all over trying to get there and by the time we got back with it it was soggy. Maybe if we are in it WOC have been better.

I agree. I don't get why people go crazy for it. I swear the only people who do are people who grew up in Southern California or something.

I think Five Guys burgers are way better.

I'm another person who just doesn't get the hype of In in Out. When they came to Utah I went with a friend who raves about them and have only been back once for a shake. That was a couple years ago and it is now literally one of the closest restaurants to my house . . . I would much rather go get a Famous Star hamburger from Carl's Jr. Actually I would much rather eat pretty much anywhere but there.

Funny thing is I go out of my way to get Thrifty's Chocolate Malted Crunch ice cream when I go to Disneyland and I am sure other people think it is only mediocre and not worth the hassle.

The question becomes if your desire to try something is worth the time and hassle on a vacation that you have likely spent hundreds to thousands of dollars to do. Have fun deciding.

No, that ice cream is totally worth it. I've had 2 conversations this week that included agreeing that that is their best flavor.

I don't eat meat, so I can't say if it's the best patty. But the sauce and the grilled onions are pretty darn good. I think a lot of the appeal comes from the simplicity and the excitement of being in-the-know. The menu has 6 items, yet there's the secret menu where you can make dozens or hundreds of combinations, but you have to know what's on it, you can't just walk in and read it off the signs on the wall.

I think a big draw for a lot of people is the freshness and real factor. Unlike most fast food, it's almost healthy! None of that pink slime.

I used to be a huge in n out fanatic and was very excited when i moved to texas and they expanded to my town. Now I'm back in CA and in n out is always solid but I tend to go more for Hook Burger or the Counter now. Not so much the fast food burgers.

The LAX location is super busy but close to the airport and worth checking out if you have time. Otherwisem download the app and it will find the closest one to wherever you are.

The 3 closest locations are: Brookhurst and Orange, in Fullerton at Orangewood and Harbor, and a soon to open location at Ball and State College. All 3 will require a car of some sort (rental, Uber, whatever).

I'll take a Cheeseburger animal style, fries, and a strawberry/vanilla shake while you're there!

The one in Fullerton would be easiest to get to, only a few miles north on Harbour Blvd. Looks like there is an OCTA bus #43 that runs up and down Harbour fairly regularly.

Totally agree. My husband use to always want to eat there when we would visit Dallas, TX now that we have one in Austin we never go. I think he realized that they aren't that good.

Bring your own mayo. They don't have mayo. It was a one & done for us. Not fans.

 

[natfrac]

In-n-Out is the best and for us it's worth going out of the way to eat there.

 

[aprincessatlast]

The one in Orange is not far from DL (maybe 10 minutes), however that location leaves a lot to be desired. Let's just say it is no DL when it comes to the ambiance. It is very run down. We ate outside by the freeway as there were like 2 seats in the restaurant. It is a drive thru kind of place. Burgers are good but the shakes were not.

I would agree too. For California fast food burgers and fries, I rank them as such (take with a grain of salt-pun intended):

1. Habit Burger
2. Five Guys
3. Squeeze Inn (I think this is still just No. Cal)
4. Smashburger
5. In-n-Out

(too bad no car-Fathers Office/Umami Burger, both in LA, serve up mean burgers)

Everyone who is posting negative things about In-n-Out are obviously Communists who hate everything that is good and right in this world.

In all seriousness, I love In-n-Out. I didn't grow up with it and had my first In-n-Out burger when I was in high school. Five Guys has a good burger (at twice the price) but In-n-Out is still my favorite.

OP - we always rent a car in part to hit our favorite restaurants we can't get out here in NC.
