We kicked off this April by playing a funny prank on Atlanta… an April Fool’s Day joke that In-N-Out was coming to Atlanta. And while that’s not true, of course, there actually is a (fairly) close In-N-Out location, if you’re dying to try it! Keep scrolling to learn more about Tennessee’s In-N-Out, just a 3 hour drive from Atlanta.
Where is the closest In-N-Out to Atlanta?
The closest In-N-Out location to Atlanta is located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, which is about an hour from Nashville, and the geographical center of the state.
Here’s the exact address: 2508 Medical Center Pkwy, Murfreesboro
If you leave when there’s no traffic, it should take you about three hours go get there. Which, hey, ain’t too shabby!
Is In-N-Out coming to Atlanta?
No. Or, in a more hopeful way, we’ll say at least not yet.
According to a report by USA Today, In-N-Out CEO Lynsi Snyder spoke on the Relatable podcast, saying:
We’re able to reach Tennessee from our Texas warehouse. We’ll have a warehouse, but not do our own meat there, so we’ll be able to deliver from Texas… Florida has begged us, and we’re still saying no. The East Coast states, we’re still saying no.
This is due, in large part, to logistical difficulties and proximity to their warehouses.
What can I do in Murfreesboro, TN?
