..... with stores also in Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Texas.

Yes - that is correct.

They have extended their reach, ever so slightly.

But nonetheless - the cult-attraction and support that In N Out enjoys, is because it is a Californian cultural institution.

Anyone who doesn't get that - as the starting premise of any discussion on the chain - simply doesn't get In N Out at all.
 
With all this excitment I might have to try a burger next time I'm state side. In around 20 trips to California I've never felt the need to visit a store.

They have a "secret menu" with lots more stuff on it, only the cool cats know to ask about it.

Personally in Melbourne we have trendy hipster burgers coming out of our ears. Mr Burger and Huxtaburger are both pretty good, hard to imagine INO is significantly better.

You mean the not-so-secret menu that's published in full on their website? :P

Not So Secret Menu - In-N-Out Burger
 
If the queue was anything like that for Fergburger in Queenstown it must have been big. I never found out why people queue up for Ferg as I wasn't prepared for a half hour wait. If anyone has experience...

Had a Monster Burger from Tiwi Takeaways in Kaikoura last week. Now that was a burger! And it's a fish and chip shop!

Californian cultural institution. What does that mean exactly? Should I know what that means? Is it anything like our fish & chips shops in the 70s? You could buy a hamburger in any shop and it was delicious. Still remember a hamburger and chips for <30c.

Really miss those days.

We're lucky in Port Melbourne to have one of those - there's a fish 'n chip shop in Bay Street called "Old Salt" that do hamburgers like they used to in the olden days. Brilliant!

Bay Street is probably the best place to get Fish n Chips in Melbourne..... Period ! :)
 
Country towns (that haven't been yuppified) are usually the best places for old style burgers at old style prices. Got a massive works burger at Cowra the other week for $8.

I wouldn't queue either at Fergburgers but one morning I passed at around 10am and there was hardly a line so I walked up and ordered a "Chief Wiggum" and I must say it was the best pork belly burger I ever tasted (especially for breakfast!). They didn't have the apricot mustard that usually goes with it but it was still very tasty. I think it is good if you can get there before 10.30am and then it's The Queue for the rest of the day. Talking to a tour guide later that day about it she said that locals have a way of getting around it - they get the little pocket menu and call up the store to order and then walk up to collect at a pre-determined time.
 
Never had to queue for the Fergburger, the secret is get your hotel to order it on your behalf, then simply walk to the pickup window and pay for it.
 
I waited in line at Fergburger for almost half and hour and waited another half hour or so for my burger when I went boarding in July. Worth every goddam_ minute of waiting Their hot alcoholic drinks help ease the strain of waiting

Don't know that I'd line up for INO - I've eaten a few in my time and while they're good, they're not amazing. Especially not when you consider some of the other fantastic burger options in Sydney.
 
I waited at In-N-Out for 10 mins, the time they took to make my order.

Yep - when minimum chips was actually a decent price. What is it now? $15??

JohnK - cultural institution - you either get it, or you don't - you really need to spend time living here to understand it. Impossible to explain.

But don't bag In N Out to a Californian native - your stock will drop very quickly ;)
 
In Queenstown we ended up going to Devil Burger instead which I must say was pretty darn good anyway.

Might try these techniques next time I'm there.
